Thoughts on Secret Celebrity RuPaul's Drag Race season 1, episode 1

Let's give this new spinoff a whirl!

  1. I still need more of an explanation of the format of this show (for the record, I did not look anything up about this show so it could be that the format was explained in a promo)
  2. So why are we guessing them now? We don't even get a full silhouette 
  3. So is there a winner each episode?
  4. Uhhh am I supposed to know who Nico Tortorella is? Sorry...I do not recognize them at all
  5. Okay I recognize Jordan Connor from Riverdale
  6. Okay I also don't know who Jermaine Fowler is
  7. Now this isn't to say that these people aren't well-known because there are plenty of people I haven't heard of...I'm just saying I only know 1 out of the 3 so there may be some references to their stuff that is going to go over my head
  8. Aw I like that charities get money from this
  9. Bob is doing a lot of TV this year
  10. I love that Monet still references the sponge outfit
  11. Man I am excited to see these guys get into drag by themselves (although I believe Nico said they had done it before)
  12. Jordan...I don't think you need a bra if you're wearing a breast plate
  13. Jordan...I know you get makeup put on you for Riverdale
  14. This is a very enjoyable challenge
  15. "Put the zipper in the front, change fashion"
  16. I love how confident all of these men are
  17. Jordan is adorable
  18. Wow making them do Snatch Game feels so harsh to do so fast
  19. Babykins La Roux is a great drag name
  20. Olivette Isyou is also a great name
  21. Okay so the two heel newbies are better than we've seen other newbies
  22. I thought someone had done Lucille Ball (internet tells me no...why did I think that?)?
  23. Transgender Law Center donation page
  24. That is not a Lucy enough wig...just saying like she is known for her hair
  25. Cystic Fibrosis Canada donation page
  26. Miss Mimi Teapot is a sweet name
  27. Aw I love that Jermaine is doing this for his mom and daughter
  28. RAINN donation page
  29. Jermaine's Kevin Hart is very good
  30. Does Trixie have a Tamagotchi ring? I want it
  31. Thank goodness the contestants don't have to do their own makeup
  32. That's so sweet that Jermaine feels like he got to see his mom again
  33. I don't get the references in the queens' fake bios
  34. Having Bob on the panel will be funny but I feel like she'll upstage the newbies
  35. I think Lucille Ball actually was a natural redhead...internet tells me I'm wrong...boy am I wrong about a lot of stuff today
  36. Nico's physical comedy is great, but their lines aren't 
  37. Okay Nico's Vitameatavegamin gag was great
  38. Babykins looks gorgeous, but has work to do on her walk
  39. Mimi also looks beautiful and also has a better walk than Babykins
  40. Olivette looks like perfection
  41. Jermaine is so short
  42. I love how they are cramming everything into this episode including a like live version of the family videos we used to get in Untucked 
  43. Jermaine's girlfriend seems so sweet
  44. The 'for your charity' part being so dramatic is so funny to me
  45. A Madonna song is such a fun choice
  46. Where did Jordan get that rose???
  47. I think Olivette is the best dancer, but to me it looked like Babykins was having the most fun
  48. My guess is Mimi wins
  49. Babykins wins!!!
  50. I'm glad each charity gets money

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 ...
