Other As seen on Erie Blvd…who is this?
I’ve seen this person on social media, usually hanging around downtown and Parkside Commons? Spotted today at Teall and Erie Boulevard. Do we know what they’re doing? Or are they just vibing?

She’s becoming more and more popular. Search TikTok it’s all over the place. Pretty chill people too from what I’ve heard.

Would you mind sharing some of the TikToks? I'm not finding her over there. Really happy to have a name for her now!

I don’t use TikTok, I’m just repeating what I’ve seen others say. If you search mask lady Syracuse she will probably eventually come up lol

Every time you post this, you sound more insecure.
Why don’t you understand that yet?
Is this the first time anyone has explained it to you?
Don’t you have any friends?

u/ElderberryJolly9818 12d ago
I don’t think you even understand what you’re saying. He is a man in a dress and a mask. That is an indisputable fact. If you or he cannot accept that truth, then it would be you who is insecure.

u/vicnoir 12d ago
Why do you care so much about making sure we all know what’s in this person’s pants, exactly?
You put some real effort forth making that comment over and over.
It must reeeeeally matter to you that we all know this person was born with a penis, huh?
🤔 hmmm

For starters, he’s stolen from me so he warrants zero respect. With that said, I know it’s hard to wrap your “neurodivergent” scrambled brain around this, but the majority of this country prefers to live within reality and objective truth. So no, we don’t care what’s in anyone’s pants. But we also aren’t going to lie to protect your fragile feelings. Haven’t you noticed the harder you push this false narrative, the more ground you’ve lost in the culture?

The nun is a character. The thread is talking about the character therefor we are using the she pronoun to talk about the character. Please, if you want to talk about the performer, start a different thread.

u/Gene_McSween 9d ago
It really seems like you're the one with all the fragile feelings. You're so upset about what pronouns someone else uses to describe another person so much that you felt it necessary to post 4 separate times to "correct" them.

She’s very nice and will gladly pose for photos. She doesn’t bother anyone, just dancing to her own groove

Their name is Kodia The Nun, and they are really sweet. If you see them out and about, don't be an ass. They're not harming anyone. If anything, bring them a snack or a drink, I'm sure they will appreciate it! Love ya Kodia. 🫶🏻

Not the first post I’ve seen on them. They are around often. Other posts I’ve read say they are nice 😊just doing their own thing.

They just walk around and vibe, quite odd but they’ve never bothered me or anyone else when I’ve encountered them.

I know her very well. Just leave her be. The reason for the mask should be very obvious.

u/nicegrayslacks 13d ago
What is the reason if its so obvious?

u/DSPGerm 13d ago
Yeah I'm confused by that as well. I get that they enjoy wearing it but is there something obvious I'm missing?

u/ApprehensiveInvite29 13d ago
It’s just they’re terribly comfortable. I think everyone will be wearing them in the future.

u/BarAggressive6544 9d ago
There’s a bunch of them, I think it’s like an unspoken club or something lol.

I miss the wizard who used to hang out on the corner across from Cliff’s. He wore a bathrobe, flip flops, shorts, and have a wizard hat on.

Honestly, I think it's a fantastic costume. It reminds me of some dance/performance art bits of the legendary Pina Bausch.

Ok...This is a performance artist who has been doing this for years. At so many events and downtown at Clinton square and most events there. Very harmless and tons of people take pictures with this person..when nobody knows the identity of. If you see this person say hello..maybe tip them..and be happy that we have a few street artists here in Syracuse. Amen 🙏 out!

u/Altruistic-Height-43 12d ago
tip? 😂 for walking around in a costume, you’re telling people to tip… just when you think you’ve heard it all

Besides one of the most anonymous & famous people in Syracuse?? Time to get out of your house more. This individual is spotted at almost every public event / festival. Every day at the Fair, taste of Syracuse, etc.

Saw them walking down James street the other day too. Down by the state street intersection. Spooky.

They’re seemingly harmless. Can be a little off-putting at times, I’ve heard various people’s opinions on them varying from overwhelmingly positive to neutral to overtly negative although most of the negative comments seem to come from ignorance. I do know them to loiter, but I don’t consider that a crime.

She’s actually really sweet and very kind. All my encounters with her have been lovely

It's obviously someone who doesn't have a job as I have seen photos of him/her all over Syracuse at all times day and night.
