I entered a Disney Drag Show contest at my local gay bar. I never did drag before, but I love Disney so I figured that here would be my best chance at trying it out. I wanted to be different from all the Ariels, Megs, and Elsas, so I created a sassy female version of Oogie Boogie and sang the Oogie Boogie Song. I ended up winning and as a prize got a three-weekend gig with the bar, and it’s been the greatest experience of my life.
To the People of Kentucky:
You are in a unique position to help America right now.
Mitch McConnell is reportedly going home after single-handedly ignoring the cries of 800,000 hungry, frustrated families and refusing to bring the bill set to reopen the government ti the Senate floor. He is doing this with full knowledge that YOU, his own people, are the sacrificial lambs so he can continue getting cushy Russian paychecks and licking Trump's nutsack.
Do this for your countryfolk and for America: change his mind. There are no rules. Bang down his door. Protest in front of his mansion and local office. Harrass him everywhere he goes. Tell him that if he doesn't send the bill to a vote, this year of Russian mob money and nice government perks will most certainly be his last. Remember: he's running in 2020. Scare the piss out of him. Make him feel as vulnerable and insecure about his job as 800,000 families currently are.
Go to it, Kentucky. Our entire country's future is at stake. Give Turtleman all the shit he deserves. We are counting on you.
Signed, Democracy
My obsession is Nightmare Before Christmas, but it’s because I feel so much like Sally trying to escape from Dr. Finklestein. I was diagnosed with Asperger’s as a kid, and since then, my parents have been keeping me on a very tight leash because they’re afraid I’ll “get lost” in the real world. I’m 16 and I’m not allowed outside on weekends. I’m not allowed to get a job. I’m not allowed to go to after-school clubs or my friend’s house. I’ve already been told I’m not allowed to go to prom!
My heart broke reading this one.
Mm’kay men, listen the f**k up.
You all are out here saying bullcrap like “girls don’t date nice guys,” and “I got friend zoned” and “girls are so shallow, they only want guys with Magic Mike bodies.”
You’re f**king kidding, right?
I’m closing in on 30 years old. I’m a straight, single female. I’m open-minded, giving, passionate, and don’t have a single body type I like to date. I am a redhead who’s crazy awesome at f**king. I have a job. I love cats, reading, musicals, playing Pokemon Go, and Doctor Who. I don’t want children but I do want to travel and experience as much of this damn planet as I possibly can. I’m a low-drama, high-adventure woman who’s in the market for a soul mate.
Do I sound like someone you would date?
Wait, I forgot something. I’m also fat.
Whoops, suddenly I’m not your ‘type,’ right?
Y’all motherf**kers are whining over here like “girls are so picky!” Well, let me tell you, sailors, I’ve encountered more men rejecting me for a date (and even a no-strings sexual relationship) because I’m not the waiflike, tiny, delicate little thing society expects me to be than I’ve EVER seen/known men being rejected for “being nice” or having a “dad bod.” I’ve NEVER had a man approach me in a bar for conversation or a drink. I’ve NEVER had someone tell me I’m beautiful. I’ve NEVER had a man take me seriously. MEN HAVE DUMPED ME AND SAID ITS BECAUSE I GAINED TOO MUCH WEIGHT.
But do men care? F**k no.
Funny thing is, I actually prefer ‘nice guys.’ I like a dad bod. I like someone I can have fun with as well as deep conversations. I’m easy to get along with. I’m low maintenance, but I do appreciate validation every once in a while...but try learning that when you’re passing me over for the skinny girl who WILL be picky and reject you...probably less because of what you look like and more for your shitty attitude.
When you say “girls don’t like nice guys” what you really mean is “hot girls don’t like nice guys.” When you say “I got friendzoned” you’re only saying it when your friend is a Manic Pixie Dream Girl. While you’re b*tching about not having rock-hard abs, you won’t even give the size-18 girl who’s been crushing on you for ages so much as a date. Until you give women of every body type equal chances to win your heart, you don’t deserve a single chance with any of us. We’re too fat and fabulous for you.
We aren’t the shallow ones. It’s definitely you. So shut the f**k up.

The original "West Side Story" film in 1961 earned Rita Moreno an Oscar, and now she has signed on for the remake.
Wait, what? Valentina as...Doc? Rita Moreno as...Doc?
Okay, so this WILL be an 'update' which means they ALREADY don't understand the story and why it would not work as is in a modern day setting. As much as I love Rita and know she's a legend, this...doesn't make sense. Doc was a mentor to TONY....a white boy. Doc was respected by the RACIST/SEXIST JETS. How would a Latina in that same role make ANY sense at all??? That'd be like Shan Yu being Mulan's martial arts teacher. They're clearly re-writing the entire show...what's the fucking point, then?
Keeping the 50s songs in modern era...will look awful.
Dropping the songs...it won't be WSS.
Dancing gang members...do not hold up in this era.
Cutting the dancing gang members...again won't be WSS.
This has already failed big time and we don't even KNOW who Maria is going to be...but I'll bet all my money it'll be stupid stunt casting like Vanessa Hudgens. Just....fucking leave this show alone and just get to filming Hamilton, assholes.
My husband and I are divorcing. I’m telling people it was because he cheated on me. It’s really because our son wanted to dress up as Belle for Halloween and I let him, and my husband lost his mind and said he was going to go to Hell if he didn’t start “acting like a boy.”
Right on, Mom. Get rid of the toxic masculinity in yours and your kid’s life.
I am an alto who is active in community musicals. I’m secretly working with a voice coach more than ever to heighten my range to sing soprano so when the rights to Frozen become available, I have a shot at playing Anna when my town does it. I have the character, the temperament, the dancing, and all I need is the high voice!
DUDE YES! #SopranoPrivilege
I felt a lot better after seeing that there’s a group in the Big Hero 6 fandom that crushes on Tadashi. I thought I was a weirdo for liking an animated character.
*raises hand*
Me too.
Seriously, America, go vote, and go vote blue. Hamilton is watching and telling us to save his great American experiment!
People in the Frozen fandom bully me because I really want Frozen 2 to be a redemption story for Hans. I know it won’t happen (Santino Fontana isn’t even on the cast list for Frozen 2) but I always felt there was something off about how Hans was ‘evil’ all along. I don’t buy it. I make up for it by reading lots of Hans redemption fics online, but I still hate how I’m treated by the fandom for thinking there’s more to Hans than just a ‘surprise villain’ arc.
I identify with this.
A lot of Disney fans I know say Frozen and Elsa are the ones that resonate with them regarding depression and mental illness, but I think Big Hero 6 relates to my depression more because Baymax treats Hiro’s depression and mourning like any other physical illness. Even my parents don’t understand that mental illness is just as legit as physical ailment.
I spend hours in the garden I walk alone to the store And it’s quiet uptown I never liked the quiet before

Something's coming! It has been revealed that film star Ansel Elgort (Baby Driver, The Fault In Our Stars) has been cast in the leading role of Tony in Steven Spielberg's upcoming remake of the movie musical West Side Story.
I...have thoughts.
1- Ansel Elgort is a good actor. I’m definitely not saying he’s bad. But from what we’ve heard of his singing (clip in the above article) he does NOT have the right voice. He sounds like the opening act for a Toby Keith concert.
2- Tony Kushner is a gifted script writer...but WSS kind of HAS a script already. Is a complete overhaul necessary? Why not just make an entirely differently film? Is this an update?
3- An update to this story would be disastrous for all the reasons. Some examples...
* Good luck getting an all-white street gang to look tough enough to own turf in 2010′s NYC...with only switchblades and the odd pistol and NO machine guns or other heavy artillery that modern-day gangs use.
* Puerto Rican immigrants aren’t exactly ‘new’ or considered a big deal in the much more diverse NYC of today. Puerto Rican Pride is a part of the culture of the city.
* Maria was essentially a shut-in being controlled by her brother, who only brought her to America as a young teen to marry his friend without her input...try making THAT seem realistic or acceptable in the 2010s.
*The police’s ignorant attitude towards the teens play a huge role in WSS...while this COULD be a good chance to make a statement on police brutality in this country, having said brutality be against a cluster of young white boys is...um...not accurate. Or right.
*The dancing gangs was a stylistic choice that fit the era. Gangs in this era are highly homophobic...you think they’d be dance-fighting and take one another seriously? But take the dance-fighting out and you’d be scrapping one of the most iconic parts of the whole show. Keep it or ditch it, you lose something huge.
*Nearly all of the songs contain 50s slang and nuance. Are we going to re-write/update the songs too? If so, fuck you and fuck this.
4- ...has Spielberg ever directed a full blown musical? This isn’t an easy show to stage. Why can’t you at least nab someone who is familiar enough with the genre to be able to give it a shot? This is going to be like Stanley Kubrick remaking Sleepless in Seattle.
5- If Kenny Ortega is doing choreo and Vanessa Anne Hudgens is Maria, I’m going to puke. Extra puke if Nicole Scherzinger or Ariana Grande is Anita. They’d better have the sense at least to cast SOME people from the most recent revival...
6- Replace Russ Tamblyn with ANYONE for Riff and I’ll fucking kill you.
In conclusion...this idea fucking sucks. Where’s my Wicked movie?
So my Great Grandpa was an air pilot in World War II. He used to sing us Whistle While You Work but they changed the lyrics while he was fighting in the war. The Lyrics are “Whistle while you work, Hitler is a Jerk, Mussolini bit his weenie now it doesn’t work.” I cant help but think of it anytime I see Snow White
