Something I noticed in the previous thread is that some people seem to really have a fixation in picking queens to hate. It's weird to me because it's so outside the spirit of the real life drag scene. I can't tell if it's just the effect reality shows have on people or if it's straight fans trying to larp a stereotype of a bitchy gay person, but either way it skeeves me out. Drag is love.

I honestly can't think of any Ru girl I would say I hate. It's hard to think of one I even just dislike, other than maybe Sasha Velour tbh. I guess I disliked Thorgy on her season but it was more like I found her annoying.

Thorgy just makes me sad because her anxieties rule her. I think PhiPhi is the canonical "villain queen" but even her nasty traits come from insecurity and I can't hate that, just enjoy the hilarious results.

Haters should go back to Party City where they belong.

The short of it being Katya relapsed to the point of getting evicted, getting arrested and having a heart attack along with what sounds like some real gender/sexuality conflicts.

Honestly, after the full two hours I feel like it might be a little early for Katya to come back, but that's more out of concern than anything. I'd prefer a live Brian to a dead Katya.

Yeah, it was funny given how much Aquaria talking about how Miz Cracker was stealing her looks, when in the end, Cracker's look was above and beyond Aquaria's. They do definitely look alike.

yeah, aquaria's like 21 where does she get off accusing people of theft? cracker did it better.

i'm glad Kalorie stayed. i like her, her dance moves were great, and the plus sized girls always go home too early (darrien is an outlier). big girls represent.

i lol'd when monet got called out as a flintstone because i said the exact same thing to my wife the moment she came out on the runway.

also the 7-year-old from indianapolis is a dark horse, don't sleep on her.

overall, this is gonna be a good season. all the queens are likable (though aquaria's weird thing against cracker isn't cute) and i don't think there were any *bad* looks, just ones that were a bit ~weaker~. i hope eureka can overcome her dance fears, cuz it really showed in the mini challenge and i don't want her to go home feeling like she didn't give it all.

Whether or not she shows up in a box next season or in All Stars, I just need assurance somehow that I'll see her somewhere because she was so cool! Seeing her leave on Untucked was heartbreaking. Especially when I don't think her look was the worst. There was a queen with blue and green pool noodles and not much else on. That one. That one was the worst to me and it was SAFE.

Good news! Nearly everyone who even sniffs this show ends up getting invited to bars and clubs all over the country so you will likely be able to see her at a show or pageant at some point.

RIP Nellie's Sports Bar, Washington, DC.

Cause of Death: straight white women

It's actually still open, it makes a ton of money for the owner, its just now packed with straight women who want a safe place (there isn't gay porn on the tv) for them to experience a gay bar. It used to be that I'd go in there and always see someone I knew. Now it's just straight women getting belligerently drunk, dancing and bumping into everyone around them (it's not a dance club), singing along to the music loudly and poorly, and either groping gay men or asking gay men to grope them.

But have you considered that you're not being *~inclusive~* of their contribution to your space?

Saying that everyone who likes Bianca doesn't give a poo poo about trans people is a bit of a reach.

At this point I've been attacked for being trans so many times and had queer "allies" just bail on me that I'm just not willing to give that level of trust. People who are willing to look the other way on things like that tend to be the same people who look the other way when you get assaulted in a bathroom.

I'm enjoying the vixen trying to bully aquaria into a full meltdown after she brought the weak shade over supposed look stealing.

I have empathy for eureka because I've had joint injuries and I was always really tentative after too. She looked like she woke up in the lip sync so hopefully she'll start bringing it.

Monet is literally discount Bob.

Yuhua is definitely a girl pretending to be a boy because drag race hates trans. Was not a fan of that gender fluid joke in the dance number.

I wish they'd get away from the lip-sync musical format. It feels like they're trying to relive season 6's Shade: The Rusical* without having to cast good singers, but even the mediocre-to-bad singers turned in a better performance than the painfully awkward lip-syncs we've gotten out of the other musicals. Just make 'em sing. Alternatively, skew toward dancing and do something like season 5's Black Swan: Why It Gotta Be Black?


*Adore should have won that challenge.

I find the musicals the most boring too. The jokes aren't usually that funny and half the time something offensive ends up in there.
