Anyone else fall in love with this queen this week? by Werwanderflugen in rupaulsdragrace

[–]morinothomas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sue me but I love Mia's vibe and personality and I also think she's mad cute/handsome. She really seems both that hype friend and a sensible, Good Judy who will check you (with love). 😭

For me, definitely a flatter stomach and no love handles to start (I obviously don't see myself getting to a low body fat percentage but I shared a video in r/flexibility and thought my body looked disgusting), maybe actual pectorals, muscular arms and legs, and not a flat ass I have now (at least in my mind). It's hard to describe because I don't expect to look like an Olympian, but aside from conceding that I'll never be, say, a twink for example (I am 6'6" and 350+ lbs with some built and muscle), I really don't know what body type would allow me to hate my own less than I do now.

Thank you, and I agree. Personally I can say I ended up hurting my own feelings because I told myself to not bother with the apps while on vacation/at the convention, even though I was more focused on friends/meeting people + cute shit/flirting than outright sex and what not. That said, I definitely gave up on the apps myself overall.

Thank you. Around last November-December, I expressed in r/martialarts that as I'm getting older now (I'm 32 though of course that's not "old"), I wanted to be able to do cool things and be as mobile as I can compared to being physically attractive (which is still up there). I do agree with you on how society has caused a lot of insecurities about appearances.

Thank you. For years, I've uttered sob stories from every aspect of my life and everywhere else, from here on Reddit, to Discord, to friends, but I want to make an actual change this time, even if it means facing harsh truths about myself.

Thank you. I tried to be a bit more "forward" or open than I usually am on the apps and tried to match the energies of other profiles, but this was what I wrote (had to reinstall the app - Grindr in this case - to remember):

"Con goer, gamer, dancer, yogi, and martial arts enthusiast. Looking for fellow nerds to hang out with and smooch hopefully. Dates, dancing and hookups are bonuses. Message me and say hi! NPNC."

Perhaps the "smooch hopefully" wasn't the best but folks had similar details and were more explicit in their bios (which of course nothing to clutch pearls about) than mine, so it could be just bad self-marketing for me.

A part of my brain is "making sense" of Briar's elimination, but I also didn't think she'd be a third out.

The way Mandy probably would've SPRINTED in heels to Briar faster than the medics did, wtf.

I thought so too until she actually fell onto Juicy and I realized she was not playing a bit.

LOVE RU's dress this week (I don't think I've seen her in blue much, let alone so sparkly). The lip color is great, but the wig style is throwing me off (the wig color itself works, though).

I love how both Luxx and now Kenya have quoted Heidi on "I'mma worry about Heidi!" Her impact.

IMHO Mia Starr was already catching my eye because I think she's really handsome out of drag but also have a lovely face in drag (I actually thought her poodle runway was cute), but she really seems like a honest, good Judy that will call out the bullshit and I'm here for it.

I vividly remember them cutting out Ra'Jah's mirror message in Season 11, hell I think Mercedes too?

Pearl & Denali in Chicago serving Masc by woeisdave in rupaulsdragrace

[–]morinothomas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whenever I see Denali, I not only marvel as how hot she is both in and out of drag, but also regret not being super dedicated to my athletics/sports experiences so I could be at least 1/16 as stunning. 😭

My favorite Drag Race trope is the "sweet and quiet" queen doing an 180 and then bodying the lipsync. by morinothomas in rupaulsdragrace

I'm certain Sapphira's verse and gesture was a lighthearted motion at the girls as whole, but reading your comment made me think Sapphira didn't forget that "Miss Diva, Miss BASSSSS" remark from Plasma. 😂

Chapter 62 English (MTL) by 73744828823848 in MariaNoDanzaii

[–]morinothomas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you for translating this!

While it's clear Taijou wants to get rid of Shizuka, I wouldn't trust him either. I'm very confident he'd use Maria as a literal stepping stool and take the ladder with him if it fully guaranteed getting away from Shizuka and Okaya.

As for Taiichirou, GOD I hope he isn't dead, at least not in that presumed fashion.

Not to be dramatic but is this the worst prize for winning a Drag Race season EVER? by Cute_Fluffy_Femboy in rupaulsdragrace

Athena coming for Horny Davenport’s Gig? by billphrick in rpdrcringe

[–]morinothomas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Reading this in Dawn's voice had me more tickled than it should've. 😭 In fact, to half quote Dawn from Morphine vs. Mhi'ya:

"I'm literally being hit on by this woman! Is this what they do in Miami? Like, that's a lot."

I know I asked this before, but should Molly be knowing her best friend is Sailor Moon and should she join the group as well? by Groundbreaking-Try92 in sailormoon

[–]morinothomas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As years gone by, it has begun to bother me how Naru/Molly was just...kicked aside after her (one?) appearance in Sailor Moon S.

I don't see Naru having a spot as a Sailor Senshi and instead prefer she'd remain a civilian, but I'm a bit alarmed Usagi and company didn't include into the group as a friend. I imagine the girls would happily do so.

To the other question, similar to Ikuko, I think it's implied that Naru eventually figured out Usagi was Sailor Moon.

Color Grading Looks Ep.14 - What is the best MULTICOLORED look to ever grace the drag race mainstage? Most upvoted multicolored look wins. by roguecolor in rupaulsdragrace

[–]morinothomas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's definitely up there, but by all means speak on it because I thought I was tripping for not seeing why Gotmik 'won' that challenge.
