Thoughts on RuPaul's Drag Race season 18, episode 13

Time for an acting challenge (turned out to be more improv)?

  1. Love that Myki referenced the dead butterflies
  2. I love that Darlene is having such a good time (although, I thought Jane's matched her outfit the best)
  3. Actually, just saw Darlene's full shirt and she deservedly won the hat challenge lol
  4. Oof Darlene was not ready for this puppet challenge
  5. It is funny that they're all bombing the puppet challenge
  6. I do love that Darlene was like, "Wow I want Puppet Me's outfit"
  7. I feel like the crew should get a bigger tip
  8. It is pretty funny that after that abysmal puppet improv, they're doing improv again
  9. Wow no fighting over roles?
  10. Oop Ru is poking
  11. Juicy did a pretty good job, but Ru's performance felt like too real (if that makes sense)
  12. Ru clearly had fun with Darlene (and did Ru start copying Darlene's accent at one point?), but I feel like Darlene wasn't full Karen?
  13. Myki made me laugh when she slowly reclined her seat (though, again, wasn't full Karen)
  14. Ru referencing Myki's Snatch Game was pretty funny too
  15. I wanted more from Jane
  16. Nini was a real Karen
  17. Wait, Juicy wore Darlene's dress for the challenge?
  18. So I love Juicy's outfit idea, but I don't think she should have the chastity belt unless she's going to unlock it
  19. I wanted Darlene to stay in her wholesome look a tad longer, but wow she really went there for her Folsom look
  20. Myki's looks were both great, but to emphasize that she's the rose's thorn, I'd vote for her second outfit to be a deep dark green instead of black (wait, I think I just didn't look closely enough--for the judges' critiques I swear her outfit looks greener)
  21. Okay, I am going to be this person...Michelle, I get what you were going for when you implied Jane looked like Scrooge's wife, but like...it's actually super important to the plot of A Christmas Carol that Scrooge does not have a wife nor any close connections
  22. Jane gets points for actually pouring wax on herself and/or her chest plate
  23. "Give me liberty or give me a piece of ass," was very funny, Ru
  24. I did enjoy Nini's look
  25. Myki is a solid choice for a winner
  26. Okay, if we are going PURELY on the lip sync, I'd keep Nini (like JFC she did a cartwheel into a flip), but if we are going for overall episode performance and/or season portfolio thus far, then I'd definitely keep Jane
  27. OMG I can't believe Ru really eliminated Jane! I thought it'd be a double save!
  28. Next time is a morning show challenge
  29. I'm still in shock that Jane got eliminated tbh
  30. Well...I guess I'll see what happens next week!

15 facts I learned from a random Wikipedia article

Original prompt: click on "Random Wikipedia Article" and write about whatever comes up (you can try 3 times and pick your favorite). For the record, I got Alejandro Estivill , Fencing at the 2011 Pan American Games – Women's épée , and Benjamin F. Jonas . I chose Benjamin F. Jonas because it was the longest of the three entries and it had a photo. He was born in Kentucky, moved to Illinois as a kid, and went to college and spent the rest of his life in Louisiana Jonas's father was a merchant and lawyer His father knew Lincoln (like they were real buds) Despite this, Jonas sided with the confederacy Not only did he side with the confederacy, but he joined the Confederate army and rose to the rank of major He went to University of Louisiana (now Tulane) Jonas was Jewish (I didn't know there were Jewish senators who served the Confederacy) He was the second Jewish U.S. Senator from Louisiana and the third Jewish Senator overall Jonas was the first Ashkenazi Jewish US...

Origin story or first issue of a superhero whose super power is geometry

Arya sat in history class and was bored. She longed to get to geometry, where things made more sense. She liked geometry so much that she had joined the math team to be able to do it more. Okay, there was also the extra time with her friends who loved math as much as she did, but some of the appeal was just the math itself. Finally the bell rang and Arya had four minutes to get to her geometry class. She passed right by the chemistry class next door where her least favorite teacher was conducting experiments. He needed to be more careful, thought Arya. The teacher had once exploded a glass beaker and not on purpose. Arya took her seat and excitedly pulled out her notebook. It was her favorite color: hot pink. She assigned her notebook and folder colors in ways that felt right to her. And since geometry was her favorite subject, she made her notebook and folder for it her favorite color. As the teacher started to go over the most common mistakes from the last quiz, Arya could've swo...

Color palette

Original prompt: "Google "color palette," pick one, and write something inspired by it." I actually Googled "color palette public domain" to be sure I could use it and found the image on this post. I used the "floral" section for my inspiraiton. The soft sunlight somehow didn't dim the shine of the fireflies. Such it was in the fae realm. Fern loved this time of day in the faewild where it wasn't quite day, but it was far from night. Fern frolicked alone in the glade as she was want to do. It didn't matter to her that her laughter carried itself alone on the breeze; she was content. She wasn't sure how long she'd been alone as she watched the suns begin to set, but it was pleasant in its own way. But then, she heard a noise. It wasn't the noise of leaves on the wind or twigs snapping from some comforting creature. It was the noise of someone approaching with grim determination. Fern wasn't sure how to ready herself to ...
