#no i think it was shea coulee

[mortemappetens]

Gege’s dropped some new illustrations and bredda please, you cannot tell me that Satoru isn’t at least a little bit batty…

The other boys are looking far less amused:

[sexynetra]

6 (fav verse) 11 (fight or untucked moment) 22 (what edit would you get on the show?) 24 (hot take 🎤)

6. Shea Coulee category is is actually literally the only correct answer to this and if you disagree you are wrong <33333

11. Uh uh uh uh uhhhhhh that one clip of Katya in the ugly dress runway dancing around in the smoking area?

22. Whiny crybaby probably 😔

24. Makeover challenges are good actually, but it’s shitty to send people home on them because the people getting made over will inevitably blame themselves

[batwing00]

i dont know that ill ever shut up about how much i love ms shea couleé

[not100bees]

Honestly. If all stars eight doesn't course correct, it's going to have the same problem as All-Stars 5 and to a lesser extent season 15 where it feels like it's just a long pointless waste of time and money but the crown on somebody who is absolutely deserving but makes the whole competition aspect kind of pointless. Like Shea Coulee and Sasha Colby, Jimbo is going the same route.

[specialmouse]

Sapphira is going to win mark my words. Nymphia is great but shes not a winner imo. Theres a worldliness to sapphira and a magnificence to her that i know rupaul sees. Nymphia seems very arrogant and while she has every right to be i just think like.. idk.. sapphira is everything nymphia is and more. I would love another azn winner ofc ofc and its not like the anetra v sasha matchup where i would have rioted in the streets but sapphira is just. Mwah. I honestly see her going down as a legendary winner a la shea coulee but main season so even more impressive

(Luka Sabbat) [THE MOMENT]. Please welcome [SYDNEY CLIFFTON ROWE (HE/HIM/SHE/HER)] to Huntsville, WV. They are an [27]-year-old [VISITOR] who lives in [TOWN]. You may see them around working as a [HAIR STYLIST AT BEST CUTS/DRAG QUEEN]. Poor unfortunate soul. We’ll see if they survive.

(Luka Sabbat) [THE MOON]. Please welcome [SOL ELIJAH ROWE (HE/HIM)] to Huntsville, WV. They are an [27]-year-old [VISITOR] who lives in [TOWN]. You may see them around working as a [PAINTER/POET/TAILOR AT THE BOUTIQUE]. Poor unfortunate soul. We’ll see if they survive.

Syd first because he's technically the oldest and won't let Sol forget it...

Full Name: Sydney Cliffton Rowe Nicknames/Aliases: Syd, Candice B. Love (his drag name) DOB: TBD (But I feel like I've said they're Gemini) Birthplace: Philadelphia, PA Orientation: Homoromantic, Homosexual

-Unlike his brother Sydney he got into far less trouble (even if he had a bigger mouth). Sol used his fists Sidney used his words… So maybe he did get into just as much trouble just not with the LAW. He's always had a sharp tongue.

-Both he and Sol are artists at heart. Whereas Sol focused on poetry and visual arts, Sidney pursued dance and music. He got into drag from a young age. He was meant to preform. Sol didn’t want to be in the spotlight, that was fine; Sydney would gladly soak it all up.

-The drag scene in Philly was fine but he wanted to see the world. Syd left the nest earlier than Sol, bouncing around from city to city and eventually moving to Hollywood in the hopes of making it. He did well for himself. Forming relationships always came far easier to him. He’s charming and confident and it didn’t take long for him to get engaged.

-He was with his ex fiancé (who acted duelly as his manager) since he was 18. While Syd's experience with him was no where near what Sol went through, there was still a lot of emotional manipulation and weird power dynamics. It often left Syd feeling out of control of his own life but he often found himself going back because his ex was consistent and rebounds were never the real love Sydney wanted.

-Speaking of, Syd and his ex fiancé split recently — they’re “””taking a break””” — hence why Syd moved back in with Sol and agreed to come to Huntsville with him after they inherited their grandmother's house.

-He’s calmed down a lot from the wild teenager that he was. He still likes a party, still likes to fuck and drink and be a mess, don’t get me wrong, but he works just as hard. He's a business woman at heart and at the time of getting stuck in Huntsville he was a pretty well known Drag performer and makeup artist on Instagram, TikTok, etc.

-He can do hair, he can do nails, but baby don't ask him to sew nothing.

-Sydney’s drag name is Candice B. Love. I imagine his style is very Shea Coulee/Naomi Smalls. He is an excellent dancer/performer and often incorporates stand up in his act. Sometimes he’ll just do comedy, sometimes he’ll dance, it depends on what the venue calls for.

-10s 10s 10s across the board; a very kind warm disco energy with this one. He does lack a filter, but doesn’t go out of his way to be nasty to people. That’s bullshit. Syd’s the friend that wont mince words or coddle you because he cares deeply about you. And he will be the first to come to your or a strangers defense. He loves his friends fiercely and openly.

Sol...

Full Name: Sol Elijah Rowe Nicknames/Aliases: N/A, Syd calls him variations of Sun or Sunny occasionally DOB: TBD (But I feel like I've said they're Gemini) Birthplace: Philadelphia, PA Orientation: Aromantic(?), Homosexual (he could MAYBE be pan? But also I'm not sure. I don't think he is either. Who knows. Miracles happen every day.)

- He was bullied heavily in school. While Syd seemed to own who he was from a young age - was popular and bright and charismatic - Sol struggled. He was the quiet, mute, shy boy. It resulted in a lot of fights in the school yard with much bigger boys.

- In high school he got into more serious trouble. And though he excelled in his art and english classes he skipped a lot of school and hung around the wrong crowd. Ultimately, he ended up fucking one of his classmates who’d been the main perpetrator of this violence against him for years so that’s one way to lose your virginity. It was a whole internalized homophobia thing on the other dude's end, and a self loathing on Sol's. Bad, bad vibes.

-Sol doesn’t regret much, but he regrets that ^. It was a toxic on and off thing that went on for far too long. There was physical and emotional abuse involved. Things like yelling, or loud noises, sudden movements etc. make him very nervous.

-Despite graduating High school by the skin of his teeth Sol is one of the most well read, intelligent people. Books have always been an escape. He independently studies philosophy and anthropology and poetry. It was his writing that got him a full ride to get a higher education and college was truly the best thing that could have happened to him. He has a duel degree in literature & creative writing and sociology & anthropology. He later went on to get his masters in philosophy.

-After cleaning up his act he got serious about community work and activism. Urban agriculture, homelessness advocacy, Harm reduction etc. He's written countless essays and used his poetry and art to break out of his shell a little. He was working as something of a community leader, organizing events at an anarchist book store and gallery space when he left Philly to come to Huntsville with his brother.

- He's a radical little socialist and was always yelling about or demanding something or causing trouble or riots. again this put him in precarious situations and he has spent many a nights in jail for things including but not limited to: resisting arrest, causing public disturbance by means of protest, trespassing, vandalism, defacement of statues etc.

-He's always helped Sydney with his drag, finding solace with working with his hands. Since they were in high school, Sol had been sewing Sydney's garments. It was a skill he learned from their mother. It's not his passion. But there's little work for a paint/philosopher/poet in Huntsville.

-He doesn't mean to be standoffish. His face is just naturally looks disinterested.

Fun facts about the twins...

-They've been in Huntsville a couple of months having come here to go through their grandmother's house.

-Telling the twins apart tip #1: Sol has finger, palm, and back of hand tattoos. While Syd does have some tattoos he has far less than his brother.

-Telling the twins apart tip #2: They both smoke but Sol smokes far more than Syd. In the off chance you see both with a cigarette, the one in pink is Sydney.

-Telling the twins apart tip #3: If you can hear him, it's probably Syd. If his hair is pulled up and out of his face, it's probably Syd. If he's talking to you willingly, it's probably Syd.

-Open connection (for both): They have 5 younger siblings (a pair of which are also twins)

-Open connection (for Sydney): His on/off fiancé who he's been engaged to for like 6 years now. It's not a good situation so we can chat about that if you're interested. They're currently on one of their breaks.

Okay now for 10 songs that I really like by 10 different artists =) (I would put links but apparently you can only do 10 per post? laaaammmeeee)

[oldbaton]

I’m always a little sad when ru girls move out of the towns they become closely associated with. And to be clear I’m happy for them and their careers and they have no responsibility to stay! But I admittedly think it’s cool Shea Coulee is still in Chicago and Alyssa Edwards is still in Dallas

"Get to Know Me" Tag Meme

Thank you for the tag, @duckprintspress!! Sorry that it took me so long to do it! (Also I know that I'm not really involved in this discussion but I feel like I need to say for the record that while Raphael is *definitely* the best turtle, Michelangelo is a respectable choice too. Sometimes you meet people who say they love Leonardo and it's like...bro, who hurt you? Plus I'm legally required to link to this XKCD comic anytime the Ninja Turtles are mentioned.)

Three Ships: Well, I write RPDR fic, and seeing as how my avatar is Courtney Act, it would be wrong not to mention the two main ships I write with her: Bianca Del Rio/Courtney Act (Bitney) and Adore Delano/Courtney Act (Adorney). Third places changes a lot based on what I'm reading/writing but I always really love the Sasha Velour/Shea Coulee (Sasha) dynamic. (Also, @theartificialdane and I just wrote a few scenes where Pearl and April are highkey flirting and I'm pretty into that.)

First Ever Ship: As a kid, I was really REALLY into TV couples with strong bisexual energy. Jessie and Slater from Saved by the Bell, Max and Kyle from Living Single, Clare and Steve from OG 90210. I was also very hyper fixated on The Baby-Sitter's Club books for like, years, and really just always felt a *spark* between Dawn and Kristy. (But seriously, go back and read how Kristy describes Dawn compared to how she describes anyone else, or how other people describe Dawn for that matter. And fun fact: Ann M. Martin is in fact a lesbian. So...)

Last Song: Madonna's Holy Water (from Rebel Heart)

Currently Reading: Nonfiction: Laziness Does Not Exist by Devon Price, Scarcity: Why Having Too Little Means Too Much by Sendhil Mullainathan and Elder Shafir. Fic: I mean it's no secret that I'm deeply fucking invested in slash obsessed with @artificiallita's Bitch Fight (also guess what just started playing as I typed this? Heaven is a Place on Earth. Coincidence?) and @artificialcandycane's Will You Make Me Believe? Also, I just beta'd a chapter of Dartmouth420's The Single Gay Dads Club, and it's so fucking good, you guys aren't ready!!

Currently Watching: I just started Real Housewives of Salt Lake City and it's already SO UNHINGED. Plus doing a re-watch of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend which never fucking disappoints. And about to start the latest episode of Sarah Silverman's podcast.

Currently Consuming: A giant bottle of water, honeydew and this Italian cheese I bought earlier at an International Food Fair. I don't remember the name but it's Alpine, I think? And hard. And delicious.

Currently Craving: An end to my daily migraines, a massage, and maybe getting to bed early for the first time all week.

Tag people you want to get to know better! @imafuckingtranslibra-blog @junosjukebox @glittertrail @sweetestberryofthebunch @dakotagorgeousworld @tumble4rpdr @djooodie @fab-wolf-in-the-gloom @fannyatrollop @momsthetic

OMG YES HOW COULD I FORGET CAMDEN

I also looooovvvveee kornbred im such a sucker for season 14!! But i also really love all the season 9 girls bc thats when i got into drag race i lovvvvveee farrah moan and shea coulee

- @/satanssquidgy

Camden is my DARLING I love her so much. I’ve gotten so close to seeing her twice and both times something came up and I’m still devastated about it.

I loved 14, I loved the way they produced and edited it I think it was very engaging and I think the talent was all-around pretty wonderful. There was really a queen for everyone to love.

Ohhhh see I do love s9, Shea has my HEART. That was a real good season to get into it the amount of competition was crazy.

I got into it s6 after seeing Adore live and it was all a blur from there lol. She’s my top of the top always.

[rosenallies]

Keeping up with the interrogation lmao but who is your favorite queens that you’ve met? And what drag performers, ru girl or otherwise do you want to see perform and/or meet?

Denali and Sasha are my fave queens I’ve met oh and daya, daya is so fucking sweet she literally talked to me for like 5 minutes straight at dragcon and when I met her at wtw last year 😭 I would loveee to meet and see Rosé, but I’m pretty sure she’ll be at my wtw show next week so I’m excited for that! I refuse to buy m&gs tho bc the m&g prices for wtw are fucking diabolical imo 😭 but I’m excited to see her perform. I also want to see shea coulee so fucking bad, I saw her once at the season 9 tour(I think, I was in high school lmao) and I’ve literally been dying to see her perform again since 😭

okay even if you're not into the Chicago Drag scene, if you're a fan of drag race please at least watch Shea's segment of the Chicago Drag Town Hall video, because it is ILLUMINATING the stuff she experienced with T-rex (best known for the Drag Race Viewing Parties at Roscoe's Tavern)

a recording of it is up at twitch.tv/dragmatinee, broadcasted 6/20 at 8pm CST
