Hello! I'd like to encourage people to apply for this but also address something about our little competition. Apparently a well known performer (who books people) has been telling new performers to never do this because "they won't be taken seriously in DC" (continued:)
Next Saturday!!!
@upuntil_dawn
is coming to party with us at
@ShakersDC
!!! Hosted by me and
@TATIANNANOW
and performances by Molasses and Dabatha Christie!! See you there DC 😈🌙
So I think in January I'm gonna host DCs Shitty Drag Awards. Categories like Fattest Juiciest Ass (which I'm mad wasn't on), Fashion (Nova) CVNT, Best Stunt Fails, etc.
So if you're passionate about your drag and would like to showcase everything you have to offer please apply! We judge fairly, give feedback that builds, and offer a chance to show that there's more to drag then what's usually required, in a fun low stakes environment.
We are creating an opportunity to expand what drag is in DC. We are offering a chance to have fun and do something different from lip syncing on a stage. We are fostering talent and looking to create a stronger community instead of tearing others down.

I'm alive and well. I managed to catch myself. But I am still accepting donations cause why not. Maybe I need to make merch 🤔 lol
Thinking about the time I was at a gig that had a less then stellar turn out and a queen who was acting like a raging bitch b/c of it threw in my face "I'm just not used to chicken shit gigs like you".
When you enjoy what you do and live to perform it doesn't matter if it's 3, 30, 300 or 3,000 people. You perform because you love it. Anyone in drag for clout and money should reconsider

My thing is, people don't seem to notice it or say anything. If a girl who doesn't dance, do 8 counts and stunts does them, people notice and call it out.
Sooo my bday(4/20) falls on a Saturday this year and the bar that initially told me I could do a show has changed that. Who would wanna get high, get in drag, and go terrorize the city like a roaming bachelorette party? I'm turning 35, and I never do anything for my bday.
I feel like I rarely have good news to share but:
I'm in the works to produce two new shows (after not producing a show in forever.)
I'm planning on visiting Chicago for the first time ever in May. This is especially exciting cause I was born there and have never even visited.
Remember this pride, if you see any wigs discarded by drunk people on the ground, pick it up. Give it to me. Some of my favorite wigs are ones I just found lying around.
Well, insta flagged this as inappropriate, so it turned out exactly as I wanted. Thank you
@MxSilverWare
for the amazing edit, AI thinks it's porn. (Again what I wanted)

I do. Up until yesterday I was unknown, now I'm "that fat queen who fell off the railing". Maybe I should also change my name to Cersei Banister first?
I love this season of DR further solidifying that if the YT gays had their way every drag show would be 5 Plane Janes doing Britney Gaga and Beyonce (only songs they shouldn't be doing)
My stepmom said she admired me for following my dreams despite my family being adverse to it and it really meant a lot to hear. Kinda relit a fire in me.

Tbh, I kinda always thought Tammy was trying to diffuse that fight. She's expressed before how she doesn't really like the reality show element of rpdr, and I feel like she thought they were all piling on Mimi.
I stayed up all night after work to finish up my look for the awards. I forego a nap after brunch to style a wig. Don't take me sleeping during the awards as shade, it's just exhaustion.
With "Murder on the Dance Floor" rising in popularity I have determined the dance floor is the most dangerous place to be at a club. Shorties are fire burning, its being evacuated from sound infection, what a terrible place to be.
