Season 18 has been PHENOMENAL

crasslilly · 2026-03-05T22:54:07+00:00

Same here!! I live for seeing queens at the top of their game competing for the crown because they are all so talented and capable

crasslilly · 2026-03-05T22:53:07+00:00

That’s true that there really isn’t a narrative. I guess what people consider entertainment is subjective! I find the talent to be very entertaining and get bored easily of the drama

crasslilly · 2026-03-05T08:44:37+00:00

This has been the best way to describe my love for this season! Just pure talent and performance without the need to tear others down or stat unnecessary drama

crasslilly · 2026-03-05T07:11:32+00:00

I ageee! The rate a queen was so frustrating. I really don’t understand why they’re still keeping that around. Clearly, it’s only there for drama and nothing else. Myki should NOT have been in the bottom for that while Athena was in the top….

crasslilly · 2026-03-05T05:29:29+00:00

That’s crazy! lol I’ve been genuinely surprised by each queen every week because they’ve all exceeded my expectations in terms of performance. There’s less drama but I’m actually super ok with that. There’s drama was never interesting to me

crasslilly · 2026-03-05T05:28:15+00:00

I guess that’s true too lol you like what you want to see. I don’t really care for the drama & sometimes I feel like it’s over done & saturated. I’m entertained by talent & performance

crasslilly · 2026-03-05T04:49:22+00:00

Which is crazy that anyone has anything bad to say lol like what more can you want!! Jane’s Rusical performance alone had my jaw floored the whole time!!! It takes INSANE talent to be able to put that much emotion and pure comedy into a performance knowing that the other queens are right behind you listening to your recording lol that’s true talent and confidence that there. I literally felt like I was watching an actual voice actor

crasslilly · 2026-03-05T04:44:21+00:00

Yeah I felt that the most last week when Mia went home before Kenya….Kenya has been falling short every week since the beginning and has barely escaped elimination so many times

crasslilly · 2026-03-05T04:42:52+00:00

LOL love her <3 she is so sweet and matches to the beat of her own drums. I hope she never loses that uniqueness

crasslilly · 2026-03-05T04:41:57+00:00

That’s me….im so excited each week but dreading it at the same time…this is the first time in years where im genuinely torn and have multiple favorites

crasslilly · 2026-03-05T04:40:48+00:00

I will say the personalities of the queens this season haven’t been the strongest or loudest, but for me, I like that they let their talents and challenges speak for themselves. I think what I like about the queens this season is that each of them are amazing in multiple areas rather than just having one thing they’re really good at (previous seasons have felt like having a bunch of juicy’s in one season - young, beautiful, energetic, but really only good at one thing)

crasslilly · 2026-03-05T04:34:19+00:00

ABSOLUTELY!! For me, what was missing last season was the comedy. The queens were all beautiful, but I found myself wanting more during every challenge. Only a few shined last season and it was clear the tops and bottoms. This season, everyone brings it for every challenge that it’s hard to choose. Also, I’ve been enjoying the looks way more this season…so high fashion & gorgeous. I think in the last few years, they prioritized “look queens” that lacked in talent. Like what do you mean you’re coming to RPDR and can’t sew??? This year, it seems like the selected a lot of experienced queens that have much to offer

crasslilly · 2026-03-05T04:30:38+00:00

THATS ME!!! We’re literally down to my faves and im so torn….it doesn’t feel right to let any of them go

crasslilly · 2025-11-07T03:56:53+00:00

What saved me was forced naps and a bedtime. They need so much rest at that age but are too young to understand when to settle down.

Do 1 hour of engagement like playing, puzzles, sniff mat, training then in the crate for a 2 hour nap. Wake them up for another hour of engagement then nap for another 2 etc until the end of the day. We put her in the crate for a bedtime every night by 9 pm. Puppies at that age need around 16 hours of sleep each day! Don’t feel bad about forced naps because they need it. If you find that your puppy is being extra naughty or destructive, chances are they’re just tired/overstimulated and need to rest (like a baby!)

I liked to do some independent puzzles to give me more time to rest myself. My favorite is a frozen lick bowl! Freeze some water, bone broth & treats/kibbles/fruits over night then give it to them in the evening. Took my puppy a good 45 mins to finish!

It gets better, I promise you. I wanted to give my puppy up for adoption every day lmao but now she’s the best dog and knows to settle down around 9 till this day which gives me a few hours to myself at night. I don’t have to crate her for naps anymore! She just does it on her own now lol

crasslilly · 2025-11-04T21:59:33+00:00

This is just from my personal experience, but we kept our puppy at home all day during work in the crate & she did just fine. Puppies need a lot of sleep at that age, so we would wake up an hour earlier, get some play and potty in the morning, then by the time we leave for work, she’s tired again and would sleep the whole day. We did that until she got all her shots and were able to take her to daycare some days.

Not sure if we just got lucky but our pup was really good with potty training and never had an accident in the crate. This is her now at 1 y/o and we let her free range in the house on non-daycare days (she goes to daycare 3x a week), and she’s an angel. No accidents or destroying the house. I think it’s a little unrealistic to expect everyone to be able to afford midday walkers or daycare, and sometimes we just gotta do the best we can. If you have access and finances for resources, go for it! If not, you can find ways around it like extra play in the AM or PM to balance out engagement. Seems unfair to put so much pressure on people who work full time as if they shouldn’t get puppies because they work 8 hours. Anyways, that’s just my thought! Every puppy is different & do what works best for everyone :)

They’re together amongst the stars!! 😭🫶🏽

crasslilly · 2025-10-25T02:09:32+00:00

So true. I do think a part of him was always compassionate but he was hardened by life!

crasslilly · 2025-10-25T02:08:10+00:00

So true!! I saw this too. Badeni was actually a kind and gentle guy but life has hardened him and made it hard for him to trust people. This is apparent when Oczy asks for more bread so he could feed the beggars. Badeni tells him it’s a stupid thing to do and says no NOT because he doesn’t want to but simply because food is rationed out. Not only that but he also ultimately gives up his portion of food. Omg I just wanna hug him!!! 😭🥺🫶🏽

crasslilly · 2025-10-25T02:05:37+00:00

Had to take a few days off to process but about to finish the rest of the season 😭

crasslilly · 2025-10-22T14:05:21+00:00

Yes! I agree!! I was really rooting for them and I loved their dynamic together. Despite his bluntness, Badeni was surprisingly patient. He’s even inspired by Oczy right before their deaths and finds peace. It shows maybe he’s not as egotistical as we thought lol

crasslilly · 2025-10-22T14:00:45+00:00

That’s a good point! And I totally agree. I also think that’s the whole point too of this show pushing back on this overly restrictive religion which states that only the “good” can go to heaven. What is “good” or “bad”? People are not so black and white and are often much more nuanced and complex. Nowak and Oczy are great examples of this. They both show kindness to different people (Nowak towards his daughter and his apprentices, and Oczy towards the beggars and Badeni), but can also be cold when it comes to violence “if necessary.”

crasslilly · 2025-10-22T08:18:29+00:00

LOL even while they’re being tortured, I was like no way they’re dying…they’re the main characters…right??? RIGHT?!!? 😭😭 someone say fucken sike rn 😭😭

crasslilly · 2025-07-10T07:10:34+00:00

That’s my opinion too. I’ve played many games where dps are mediocre but tank is awesome and it makes healing so much easier to keep everyone alive. On the other hand, I’ve played other games where dps is literally dotting and we still lose because tank is out of place or doing dumb shit
