Thoughts on Canada's Drag Race season 1, episode 7

I've totally forgotten the preview for this episode.

  1. Scarlet Bobo isn't a senior citizen
  2. Lemon's outfit was bad though...
  3. But yes it seems like it was dumb personal stuff that had Lemon being called out
  4. Miss Loose Jaw is funny
  5. A pageant challenge but also an acting challenge...awesome
  6. So far no one seems to be taking their character somewhere unexpected
  7. Wait I don't remember Brook Lynn having a lot of issues with other queens...
  8. Oh if we're getting Ilona's story then she is either going to win or go home
  9. Huh I didn't know that Jimbo trained as a clown
  10. Jeffrey did his own "give it up for"
  11. Omg Degrassi royalty
  12. Wow so the first pageant in Drag Race herstory is just making fun of pageants
  13. I thought Ilona's bit was funny
  14. I love how Priyanka's pregnancy belly makes no sense
  15. Priyanka was smart in doing interpretive dancing for the angry pageant girl
  16. Jimbo is making a fool of herself and it's great
  17. Scarlet Bobo pretending to do the water glass trick on bongos is funny and it makes me think of Miss Congeniality
  18. I didn't get Lemon's mime act that much
  19. As long as you like crude humor, Jimbo is AMAZING
  20. Scarlet Bobo, no shit the challenge was to stay in character
  21. I knew they were going to have someone other than the queens win the crown
  22. Ilona and Bobo (yes, I'm finally giving up on doing full names) aren't fighting over nothing...they're using nothing to fight over something
  23. I appreciate it when I get a Queer history lesson
  24. Lemon, I'm sorry people made you feel so bad about your body
  25. I assume this guest judge is a fashion person (wait they said she wrote songs)
  26. Haha Allie X gets props for doing a Miss Congeniality reference (although I suppose that was written)
  27. Allie X seems so genuinely nice
  28. Ilona looks lovely
  29. Lemon was smart to go kid pageant
  30. Uh...Jeffrey...not sure we should reference a murdered child...just saying
  31. Rita looks like perfection
  32. Priyanka looks beautiful, but I don't think her dress works for me
  33. Jimbo is beautiful and campy and I love it
  34. Okay, the side of Bobo's dress looks like mushrooms growing on a tree trunk to me and I don't like it
  35. Bobo's makeup is great though
  36. I think Ilona's take on a sad sack was a solid idea, but the execution suffered
  37. I do agree that Ilona's outfit could've had more jewels but that's like asking her to have more money
  38. Lemon was fun, but I did not like the mime
  39. I didn't see the details of the small crown and the socks for Lemon, so now I like it more now
  40. Rita was fun, but I agree that I don't think she stood out the most
  41. But yes, bitch Rita's dress is AMAZING
  42. Priyanka was a little one note
  43. The color on Priyanka is GORGEOUS, but I don't think the mix of fabrics works 
  44. Bejizzled!
  45. Wow I don't think this dress on Jimbo is that bad
  46. It is reminiscent of Marilyn Monroe so I get the glamor 
  47. To be honest, I don't remember Bobo in the pageant (I went back and looked at my notes to remember)
  48. So I think Ilona is going home today and Bobo is winning
  49. Jimbo, calm down...the critiques weren't that bad
  50. Jimbo, Rita looks AMAZING...you need to shush
  51. Lemon makes sense as a winner too, but I really thought they were going to give it to Bobo
  52. Bobo, they do see you...maybe not enough, but they do see you
  53. Priyanka just burped and we're moving past it and I love that
  54. Okay I may look up some Allie X songs
  55. Ilona does put a lot of emotion into her lip syncs but Priyanaka's comedy is a great refresher
  56. Okay so half of my predictions were right
  57. I love Ilona's message
  58. I'm glad Ilona got a moment with Allie X since she's clearly so important to her
  59. Yes it's time for makeovers!
  60. Excited for next time!

Starting my parental journey, part 2

You can read part 1 here . Yesterday I began the next step of my parental journey. Ironically, it was starting birth control. This medicine helps prepare my ovaries for the egg retrieval process. It was weird taking the pill to prepare for my fertility journey because you typically think of the pill as ensuring you don't get pregnant. Obviously, I'm not getting pregnant now, but I am getting ready for that eventual possibility. There have also been various bureaucratic issues that I've been dealing with. Mostly insurance stuff (as I'm sure comes as no surprise). But, thanks to a new benefit at work that started 1/1/24, my journey will be (mostly) covered. While, again, there were some bureaucratic hurdles that I had to overcome in order for this to all work out, I am immensely glad that it did work out. I am nervous though. In part I'm nervous about a lot of the practicalities of this step in my journey. For instance, I will have to inject myself with various medica...

15 ways to support me on my parental journey

I posted yesterday and in August, 2023 about starting my parental journey. If you're wondering how you can support me, here are some ideas I have at the moment (though these may change and also don't feel pressured to do any of these things). Check in via text or DM so I can respond at my leisure (but please don't be insulted if I take a long time to respond) Help with arranging food for me (I know that when I get overwhelmed, I often have really awful eating habits) Offer to help with apartment chores (I may turn you down, but the offer will mean a lot) Walk Hoban (I realize only some people can do this, but the relief of lightening the responsibility of Hoban will likely be welcome) Be understanding if I have to cancel plans (I hope to still be somewhat social during this time, but I cannot guarantee how I'm going to feel) Drive me to appointments (I have the retrieval itself covered, but I have other appointments that will happen leading up to it so if you have the...
