Child, these reads were as interesting as Jeffrey Moran.

I think the success of the makeover challenge is completely reliant on who is getting made over. With the first two seasons, both the women and the gay men were able to wholeheartedly embrace femininity. And the groups both made sense- masculine women getting made over by feminine men, and older gay men who have seen

I'll admit, I was pleasantly surprised by Coco's performance tonight, but in no way did it merit a win. Relying on a "hood girl" façade to get yourself through a personality based challenge is a schtick that is not only lazy, but has been done by both Chad Michaels and Shangela before her.

Especially without the context of Untucked, the breakdown seemed so bizarre, and slightly contrived. After seeing Untucked and the baby pictures that triggered her reaction, I can understand how the tears came like a tidal wave though.

So I look like some dead white girl. So does Madonna.

Nope. I'm just so done with Michelle. She never looks gorgeous, she always looks cheap as fuck. Which I was always fine with- live and let live! But apparently, Michelle thinks she's the arbiter of good taste, so I'm gonna come for her every week, until she realizes that she has no class.

I think it's a joke that Alaska gets criticized for lacking vulnerability, when Roxxxy is not only arrogant, but lacks any personality. She's like Willam, but without the wit or fashion sense.

Also, Jinkx has released a statement thanking everyone for their support, and asking people to "take it easy" on the other girls. So she is continually proving herself to be a billion times better than everyone else.

Next week is a singing challenge. According to Ru, a lot of the girls are pretty good singers this season. So it should be interesting.

Currently, both Roxxxy and Coco are retweeting every person who says they should have won Snatch Game, and neither have acknowledged Jinkx's performance, nor said anything about learning about Grey Gardens.

I saw words on the internet that said season 6 might be international.

William was bitchy and catty, but she kept it reined in. There's a difference between "I think your tone is very pointed right now." And Alyssa/Coco/Jade/Roxxxy never shutting the fuck up.

I love the idea of bringing someone back, but both times it has failed miserably in practice, so I wouldn't be upset if they dropped that practice.

Considering that Sharon was serving Little Edie for Dragazines, I'd be shocked if Alaska didn't know Grey Gardens. And Detox's face when Jinkx said she was doing Little Edie made me think that she also got the reference. That's also probably why the editors had no comments on Jinkx's performance from those two.

Honestly, when Santino said Jinkx reminded him of Pandora, and proceeded to say nothing negative about her look, I took that as a positive sign. Maybe he learned his lesson after seeing how much the fans love and defend Pandora's aesthetic.

I think Snatch Game has been really consistent, we just look at previous seasons through rose-colored glasses. There's usually only one or two girls that are actually "good" each season. In Season 2, Pandora and Tatianna were the only good ones. None of Season 3 was that memorable, really. And Jinkx alone made Snatch

It's Monsoon season on RuPaul's Drag Race, and Jinkx made it rain on those bitches.

Shameless is a constant balancing act between absurdity and realism. I think the show really misses the mark when it selectively ignores any shreds of reality- it's the biggest problem with US Frank. I really dislike that the show is either going to handwave the idea of Liam getting adopted or it's going to be another

Detox was apparently in a really bad car accident and had to have a lot of facial reconstructive surgery. Seeing the pics from back when he did porn, I honestly have to say: his real face just looks weird. He's clearly getting colagen, but mostly I'll give him a pass on his face.
