Let’s go to your bottom line, then:

The greys are a holdover from Kinja’s inception in the Gawker media empire half a decade ago.

Buy yours at RuPaul Drag Con 2018.

Appearances can’t be overlooked, you’re right - I mean, this is drag, and all.

“Milk’s Knit Areola” sounds like an avant-noise grrrl-punk album that I would have definitely owned in the 90's.

FWIW, it’s my Thai friends who are the most insistent that the Thai language isn’t - well, let’s just say “musical” language.

It’s hard to say how cyclical it is - but note has definitely been made that Team Talent came to dominate so very many of the middle seasons:

Yet another way Kinja found a way to be even more infuriating than Disqus.

It’s too kind of you to say.

1) You specified “these queens”. Drag is and has been, long before this show, a local and regional product. We see plenty of this inflect all the new queens that emerge each season, and the tried-and-true tropes that this show has become a platform for discussing. Talent versus look. East versus West coast. Country…

It’s possible you miss the point, back in 2) where I wholly admit that Shangela is readily more deserving, based on her performance over the season.

Trixie turning it around “in respect to Morgan” was exactly the kind of perfect improv timing that she needed, if only Bebe realized the landmine she was laying down. Bebe’s face-crack is the GIF I need in my life right now.

Ultimately, particularly for an All-Stars season, it becomes more incubment to recognize that all these girls are deserving. We have our favorites, of course, and we can definitely argue the merits of who’s more deserving (which of course, we do ad libitum).

Season 1: Bringing Porkchop onboard, Ongina’s HIV status,

For me that’s what separates what Milk does from Raja or Violet’s refined editoral style. It’s what makes the latter two fashionne, and Milk something just to the left of that. the difference for me is the ability to reference, to create a narrative, and to edit. Raja and Violet, with every look - evidence deep…

The show is as fair as Ru and the producers decide to make it.

Nested gags tonight, so a lot of Random ‘pinions:

I saw and noted the comparison of Shangela to Ellaria and Theon upthread.

*rattlesnake sound cue of shade*

I’ve explained this in previous episodes, as one of the viewers that finds Shangie immensely talented, but also immensely grating.
