Me last week: Man, Adore looks strung out as gently caress.
Me this week: yep, strung out as gently caress.

Bet her departure had nothing to do with drag. Hope I'm wrong.

Finally watching the most recent episode and less than a third in, what the gently caress is going on with Adore? On something? Coming off something?
My bet's on coming off something. Might be coupled with other real-life poo poo, and probably is, but the second she showed up in the first ep I thought she'd acquired a monkey backpack of some kind. She looked awful and twitchy and glazed-eyed in a really distinctive way, also that meltdown just reeked of loadie rationalization -- thinking you can stay clean for something you really want to do, realizing it's not possible, hitting the wall, feeling anxious and weepy and desperate and grasping at anything to get out. This isn't based on any gossip I've heard, but I've seen a LOT of this sort of thing and that meltdown was textbook.

Again, hope I'm wrong.

I don't understand why Big Freedia can't be on the show all the time.

I think the more obvious was season 7. I think going into season 7, Ru fully intended on crowning Kennedy Davenport.
A little bird told me (the little bird in question has a lot of expensive blond wigs, a rrrrrreal mean mouth and a book coming out) that Ginger was Ru's pony to win season 7, but the plan got changed up in a hurry once it became clear that Ginger was going to come across as a hateful viper on Untucked. Kennedy might have been #2 for awhile but yeah, what you said.

I'm glad the production seems to have learned some lessons from the hosed-out catastrophe that was season 7.

I was on Phi Phi's IG, and people are loving crazy. Did he do something else, besides what's been talked about, to piss off the Drag Race hive mind? The reaction seems a bit unwarranted.
There's a subset of Drag Race fans, mostly very young ones, who've gotten used to the presence of clearcut Villains, and descending on the scapegoat du jour's social media like a battalion of flying monkeys has become a key part of their enjoyment of the show.

Phiphers didn't handle herself very well, but she hasn't been THAT bad and the reaction is pretty goddamn excessive. Someone needs to ground those little shits.

C'mon, dude. She's an unpleasant, grating nitwit with no game whatsoever, but this time around she hasn't done enough actually bad poo poo to deserve the volume (amount and noise, both) of hatred she's getting. The comments on her IG are appalling.

Goodness Tati is beautiful. Also smart and wicked and great TV, of course, but man, she's just a joy to look at. I don't remember her being quite so surreally gorgeous on her season -- she grew up really well, unlike some people I could mention.

I don't know if it's been covered here or not but apparently PhiPhi quit drag entirely now. For real this time.
Jesus CHRIST Phi Phi. (we've said that a lot at my house this season.)

I loved Katya's runway, it was so good
Katya's runway KILLED. That took balls like churchbells. “I am giving you 1980s lesbian literary agent, disinterested pissed off Ellen Barkin fantasy", and boy, she sure did.

Welp, Alaska's Horcrux is apparently hidden in RuPaul's NDA
