Oof, I don’t envy the people writing and designing for this. The notes will be all “It has to look exactly the same so people will watch it but set thousands of years earlier, and we’re definitely dropping the budgets so don’t expect that “Heights of golden civilization and heroes of old” shit, more of a “benches on…

I thought I saw that in Kameron’s look, but ever her messy looks neat, obviously.

Yeah, and Drag U was essentially Ru running a very expensive televised psychotherapy office.

As a fat, effeminate, oft-bullied homosexual myself, I found this ep’s focus on insecurities vaguely exploitative. There’s a way they could’ve gone after this topic—or, more broadly, mental illness in the queer community—but what they did here? Swing and a miss.

That’s exactly what I was expecting! And when they all went the glamour route, I figured I just didn’t understand the challenge.

Breaking Bad

Was anyone else disappointed at how nice the saboteurs looked? I feel at least one of them should’ve come out with busted makeup and padding showing, as if their inner voice tells them that no matter how hard they try they’re still a busted first year queen. It would’ve been a lot more vulnerable than what we got.

I’m gonna play the other side here and say Mickey was doing his job. Fuck everyone who laughed at that scene.

but she’s seldom referenced as a great performer in the way we discuss Marlon Brando, Katharine Hepburn, or Dustin Hoffman.

How about honorable mention to All In The Family?

Wow. Granted, I was pretty lifted when I watched this, but I hated 100% of what came after the mini-challenge. The visits in the workroom seemed almost borderline abusive. It seemed like Ru wanted to really get these girls to dig deep into what they [may] hate about themselves. Aquaria seemed downright shocked when Ru…

Fight Club is right up there with Born In The USA as a piece of media whose actual message is completely lost on its biggest “fans”

That character could almost be excised completely and not have an effect on the film. It is an unfortunate stain.

As I recall, I think we both kind of liked it.

I want to like this movie for all the reasons you mentioned, but I’ve only seen it once, because Mickey Rooney’s portrayal of Mr. Yunioshi is just so horrifyingly awful. I had no idea that was coming—I think I saw it in the early ‘90s—and was basically gaping in open-mouthed horror whenever he was on screen. It was so…

I remember coming across this on college TV one day and being thoroughly captivated. Holly is such a fascinatingly nuanced character, and afterwords I finally recognized that she was the girl from the posters lol; it’s like the female equivalent of how men have selective memories of Fight Club, ignoring the emotional…

That scene at Tiffany’s in one of the clips above—where Holly and Paul take the Cracker Jack ring to get it engraved—is one of my favorite in any film. John McGiver is perfectly cast as the Tiffany’s salesman, and while he has only a few lines, they’re perfect, too (“Do they still really have prizes in Cracker Jacks…

Use less salt and more MSG. MSG occurs naturally in many foods such as Parmesan and mushrooms, and is made from bacteria or seaweed. There is absolutely no evidence whatsoever that it is harmful in any way. If it was, half of population of Asia would have a headache, because it’s a standard ingredient in home cooking…

Use live slugs and snails to soak up the excess salt. You’ll feel so guilty over their deaths you’ll never do it again!
