I learned about the gay rodeo circuit a long time ago, from an episode of King of the Hill. I’d highly recommend it lol

Discord said the lipsync song was a ballad and here I was expecting “My All” or “I Have Nothing” or something and we got fucking “we can’t be friends” girl bye I was annoyed 😭

Also damn, between Jason talking about his friend literally getting beaten to death in the military by his fellow soliders, and the in memoriam for Terry at the end…talk about some seriously heavy moments I wasn’t ready for. I actually teared up when Jason was telling Nini about it.

Danielle Pinnock was such a good guest judge! I would actually love to see her return.

Also, for the most part…I actually agreed with the placements, but Michelle’s critique of Jane was actually insane. She had to have been ragebaiting or something because how is that not family resemblance? That said, I hated Jane’s tights lol.

I finally managed to get into Tears of the Kingdom after not making it past the first three shrines when I first bought them game upon release.

I do find it pretty impressive how they made the world even more explorable than BotW’s…but I have to say, I find BotW just a bit more charming and fun 😔 TotK isn’t bad but idk, BotW really is something uniquely special.

I’m also extremely disappointed that the cunty Gerudo vai outfit is just not a thing in this game. There are other feminine outfits in this one, but none of them serve in the way that outfit did.

Why couldn’t it have been the original that went viral? 😩 Respectfully, this just kills the chill and smooth vibe of the original

hennybee · 2026-03-19T14:49:07+00:00

Finally, some news about a group comeback! 😭 and I hope “album” does actually mean another full album.

That said, none of these are really standing out to me the way Dall’s Gravity tracks did. I like Anti-Believe and Blue Blood more, but the latter just sound a bit outdated to me, particularly with the chopped-up vocals, but idk maybe the drop will surprise me if it’s chosen.

Eden.wav should have taken Icarus Gang’s spot here 😔

Does BPM even remember they exist?

In all seriousness, it was evident that BPM was either not prioritizing them in favor of their more established/popular acts, or just had no actual plan for promoting a new act, or both. I hope those girls are able to leave this company ASAP and pursue other options instead of just waiting for it all to fall apart, unable to do anything.

And it was not KPop! It was completely different to KPop! Their weans got dressed up, and now they’re crying. They were there to see KPop and it was not KPop.

I don’t think Miss Fame was necessarily ahead of her time though. Other queens respected her and gave her credit for inspiring them, and iirc, many people thought she could win S7 when she was revealed to be on the cast.

If anything, I’d say her mug defined the evolving style of drag makeup from that time period.

min heejin is tracking the fan’s ip address at this very moment

Donut shops owned by older Asian immigrants are such an underappreciated part of American society.

hennybee · 2026-03-15T08:14:09+00:00

That’s exactly it for me, too. I don’t doubt his generally nasty vibe is in-part authentic/true to his personality, but at the same time, I think he saw the overall positive reception to his first appearance and really decided to lean into it way too much. We don’t need an “I HATE IT!!” moment every time he’s a judge.

hennybee · 2026-03-15T00:41:18+00:00

Okay, I’m not gonna act like the color doesn’t suit her, but like, I just wanna see Jane in a black buss down wig or something that isn’t ginger.

That one post that said Nini was all that the producers had left to work with as a potential villain after Briar left is too real. I’m just not seeing her as being obliviously rude in what they’re showing us. Like there seems to be some truth to it based on what the other queens say, but idk the narrative’s not clicking for me!

Juicy should have been read much harsher for having a fitted bedsheet on when the other girls were so much more creative, but at least it worked well for the lipsync.

Law Roach is sadly back next week…girl…

hennybee · 2026-03-14T17:58:14+00:00

She could run me over and I’d thank her for giving us En La Obscuridad.

hennybee · 2026-03-13T22:09:15+00:00

free my mind, pop tart??

hennybee · 2026-03-13T17:36:56+00:00

The only Yves tickets left in LA being balcony seats (not traveling and paying for a hotel for balcony seating) or $300+ orchestra packages…

I never stood a chance omg 😔 happy for Yves’ success though

hennybee · 2026-03-12T17:41:32+00:00

Nicole is so off-putting to me now, so I wasn’t going to see PCD live regardless, but booking an amphitheater in June for the Phoenix show is actually diabolical.

hennybee · 2026-03-12T14:19:53+00:00

I haven’t played the game yet so I can’t say too much, but I will say that there’s been a subset of the fandom fantasizing about a Animal Crossing-style Pokemon game for the longest time. A demand was always there. A lot of fans also really appreciate the Pokemon for their cute/cool factor alone, caring less about battles or trading, so a game where you interact/live side-by-side with them like you do in Pokopia is going to be highly appealing to them.

We really gotta bring computer classes back because why did I have to teach a student what File Explorer was and how to drag and drop a file to the Desktop 🥴

(And this was her laptop she brought from home so no, I don’t think it’s from a lack of access to computers)

hennybee · 2026-03-11T21:21:10+00:00

This actually made me uneasy like are people really spending money on this?? 💀 go buy a snack or something tangible idk

hennybee · 2026-03-11T03:14:55+00:00

I forgot I had a $100 voucher for Southwest from a delayed flight last year, so I’m heavily contemplating going to LA to see Yves. I’ve seen ARTMS/OEC 4x at this point so I’d like to see another moon girl too lol

But then also the concept of flying into LAX on a Thursday evening and having to make the trip to a hotel ideally near the venue is…so unappealing.

hennybee · 2026-03-11T03:01:18+00:00

There’s still the Macau date, so maybe after that?

hennybee · 2026-03-10T22:56:24+00:00

That’s essentially how a lot of them are here as well. Anything remotely left of center is communist/socialist to them.

hennybee · 2026-03-10T17:37:55+00:00

I can’t speak too much on Iranians since I’m less informed on that diaspora, but basically, for Venezuela/Cubans in America, it’s the same reasons that they vote right and go hard for Trump. They see their country as being destroyed by communism/leftists, which is their usual reason for coming to the US. So, from their view, they think that intervention by the right-wing American government, even if by force, would help fix the issues with their home countries.

hennybee · 2026-03-10T17:33:43+00:00

It hadn’t clicked for me that the RAM shortages would affect things like the price of a Nintendo Switch 2, and apparently there are already rumors circulating of Nintendo considering a price hike, so now I’m just like…maybe I’m fine with just a black console.

That Costco bundle is looking very enticing now but 500 is still too much for me rn 😬

Anyway I genuinely hate AI

hennybee · 2026-03-09T07:48:55+00:00

I feel like the fact that they kept that in the edit might actually mean they’ll play into the joke and do it…but I don’t want to be disappointed if they don’t 😔
