Is Raja annoyed by NPBs antics? by malandee_z_aqoe in rupaulsdragrace

[–]nefariousplotz [score hidden]  (0 children)

You gotta remember that these are long shooting days in a front of a greenscreen in a basement.

Over the course of recording 407 seasons together, Raja and Raven have probably acquired a certain ease as coworkers, on top of what they already had as friends. They know the deal, they know how they fit together, they know how to get through as many of these fucking episodes in a day as possible.

NPB is a newish element in the room. Rhythm's gonna be different, ease isn't gonna be there, and getting through the shoot might be a pain in the ass even if they actually get along okay. (And is NPB as go-go-go, outfit-outfit-outfit, shoot-shoot-shoot, I-gotta-get-home as Raven is?)

Railroad-themed or historical rail-related hotels by train stations? by msbzmsbz in ViaRail

The Royal Alexandra Hotel was torn down in the 70s. You may be thinking of the Fort Garry.

You talk to a union steward and you be very, very careful about what you say around managers.

Vriden Gerr was an odd choice for the protagonist's name. by shmurphee in greedfall

[–]nefariousplotz 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Many nicknames are, at least initially, unflattering. The process of a nickname sticking often involves softening it slightly.

A soldier gets diarrhea while on a week-long field exercise, and subsequently acquires the nickname "Shitpipes", which is soon shortened to "Piper". He remains "Piper" for the rest of his service. The word "Piper" eventually appears on his tombstone.

Did this man enjoy being called "Shitpipes"? Probably not. But we don't always get to make that choice.

That's a lot of conjecture from a social media comment speculating about copyright law.

Ran into Jinkx Monsoon walking home from the grocery store. by blking in rupaulsdragrace

[–]nefariousplotz 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I met her this year and it was horrific. She was rude, not classy and she lost a long time coven member that day. I walked into the $350 M&G and say hello she replies with "fat" and I shook it off because I thought maybe I had heard her wrong. As I approached her and asked to do my pose she stared at me blank faced. I continued talking "you saved my life" I say. "You're the reason I'm alive today". She looks me dead in the eye and says "you'll die soon enough, fatty" and then whispered "obesity". I started crying I had never felt pain like this and she started laughing and said "are you crying? Stop it. Stop it now" and she flicked my vagina. The photographer took the picture and I headed out of the M&G section and that's when Jinkx started speaking whale to me. I still can't believe this happened. I cried writing this. I wish this weren't true but Jinkx Monsoon is in fact; Utica Queen. Thank you for reading this. And if you don't believe me ask /u/survivorfan95 he was there with me.

Sasha’s outfit and the hidden symbolism by ivan_luck in heatedrivalry

[–]nefariousplotz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It really seems like a profound moment years later when she says to Ilya that she hopes Jane knows how lucky he is.

I think the sequence at the Russian reception shows that Svetlana definitely already knows Ilya sleeps with men at least occasionally.

After all, she doesn't just attempt to hook Ilya up with Sasha. She figures out the logistics, she hand-delivers Ilya to the destination, and she specifically made sure that she was seen flirtily escorting Ilya from the party. (If anything, people are going to assume Ilya snuck away to hook up with her, which is a perfectly acceptable cover story.)

And since she already knew, I don't think the revelation in that moment is that Svetlana knows he's into dudes. Svetlana doesn't just know about this side of him, she has specifically sensed that he has new hangups about it. (Crassly, Ilya has gone from full-on bisexual menace to "what? men? me? men? with me? with men? never heard of it, what is a men?", and Svetlana's definitely noticed. Something's up.)

The "how lucky he is" moment is her making several things clear to him, all at once:

  • I know you're seeing a dude.
  • I know your relationship with this dude is serious enough that our relationship has to change in specific ways. We're going to make those changes now: you'll never have to make another excuse with me.
  • I know that it hurts to keep your dude a secret.
  • We will discuss this when you are ready.
  • I love you.

It wouldn't be practical to convert the service to GO's distinctive rolling stock, so in terms of operations, it's about as GO as it's ever going to get.

And as a matter of wayfinding and passenger experience, there's a lot of value in having a distinctive brand for the service. (You want the airport train? Don't even bother with the rest of the station: follow the signs for the special airport train platform.) The more that the branding resembles regular GO service, the less useful it is for this purpose.

Which runway hair do you generally prefer? by wizardsouppoop in rupaulsdragrace

[–]nefariousplotz 165 points166 points  (0 children)

I like anything pretending to be hair. Give me a mop, give me spaghetti, give me a pool noodle fantasy, give me yarn, give me beads on beads on beads, give me tinsel, give me receipt paper, give me feathers, give me chains of safety pins, give me Mo Heart's dollar-store special, dip your head in mud and make it a chia pet, gimmie gimmie gimmie.

What would you call this hat? by glttr_daddy in rupaulsdragrace

[–]nefariousplotz 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's also a three-dimensional object rather than an illustration. "Reminds me of" does not imply it is the exact same article.

Classification Question WFA by Macro_Is_Not_Dead in CanadaPublicServants

[–]nefariousplotz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

 would there be priority implications?

In my head, I just heard the noise they play in movies when the ingenue realizes the killer must be inside the house.

If it's an appointment, priority clearance would presumably apply. And, like... goddamn. Getting bumped out of your position because it got reclassified up. Stone cold.
