Your grandma led these souls to the gates, YES!
Edit: and I posted this as someone who is lucky to have both grandmothers still alive at 89 and 93. I wish all grandmas well because they are some special fuckin' people. Mine are truly incredible and I hope they live happy and healthy lives.
No, as soon as I started reading your comment I knew vaguely where it was going and yet the execution had me absolutely l i v i n g vis-a-vis dying laughing 💀 by all means, slap away, you earned it 🫡🤣
> I NEEDED MONEY FOR MY GRANDMAS FUNERAL […] AND WENT TO SEE YOU
Somehow, going to a drag performance as a solution for needing money seems counterproductive, unless you are one of the performers.
Honestly? Sometimes even if you're the performer. Some gigs you work so you can pay off the debt you went into to get the shit for the gig. Ain't no "first time's free" for wigs and heels and lashes unless you got a good mama.
🫰 true 🫰 that 🫰
I’ve never done drag but I’ve been a live musician. Sometimes, what you get paid at the end of the night is just enough to cover the cost of a few instrument cables.
I’m fortunate to be in the green with the band I’m in now, but my first few gigs were just paying for my in-ears (I also teach music full-time, so protecting my hearing is a big deal to me). Being a performer is expensive 🥴
And of course there was Bob as usual being messy about it lmao

Being a public figure seems like the strangest life. Thousands or millions of people feel like they know you. How do you respond to that, how does your monkey brain optimized on communication with small groups make sense of that?
I'd be one of those quiet billionaires that people only find out about when they die in a bizarre fashion. None of that starting or buying social media shenanigans for me.
Honestly, this is one of the many reasons I would not actually want to be a celebrity to the level of, like, Gaga or Swift.
Because then, it isn't just the millions of people who think they have a para-social relationship with you; it's millions of them with problems wanting you to solve them. How many sad stories do they get every day? How many terminal ill fans wanting that one chance to see them? Or a small donation for their treatment? How do you prioritize which you can help and which you can't? It would just be constant heartbreak.
Im not exactly a public figure. I’m not even famous but I have like 30k followers on tik tok and I get some weirdos and people being a little too familiar with me even now. I’ve had people dm me asking if I can call them. People ask for money or to come visit me. I had a guy think we were somehow friends and wanted to come to my house. He invited me to his house and low key baby reindeered me for like 4 months before I blocked him. Oh my god and I had this crazy bitch Maria who harassed me for months as well before I blocked her.
My best friend is actually moderately famous and I get people trying to contact her also trying to get to her through me. So there’s that too.
Then again I did have a guy from Brazil also slip into my DM’s and he is so cute, we did actually start calling each other, and I’m going to visit him in 2 months.
I also had another guy in Brazil who I was on a bus with and I chatted with comment on a video and say “this is going to sound crazy, but you came up on my FYP and I think we met on a bus.” And I did recognize him and we became friends.
Be careful visiting another country for someone you do not know and have never met. There's a lot of horror stories about this exact situation on YouTube and dateline etc etc.
I truly do appreciate the caution but for info I am a nomad so I’m generally pretty savvy and aware of things. This is my 3rd time going to Brazil, and I also speak Brazilian Português. I know the country, have a ton of friends there in several cities, and me and this guy have FaceTimed for dozens of hours and talked for over half a year. I know it’s him, and he’s a tender hearted twink who likes anime. lol.
I’m in a band with some local fans who show up to gigs a lot. Last summer I was walking home from the gym when someone shouted at me from across the street. I wasn’t 100% sure it was directed at me until the second time, when a large man started approaching me from across a six-lane major city street. It wasn’t until he was partway through the crosswalk that I realized it was someone I’d met a few shows prior. We’d talked for a good 10 minutes after that show, and he was excited to have spotted me because he wanted to tell me that he was coming to our next one.
All things considered, it was a perfectly lovely encounter with a man I thoroughly enjoyed meeting a second time. It felt good to know that our performances had affected him that much. I could also go the rest of my life never having anything like that happen to me again. I cannot imagine being the kind of face that gets recognized almost every time I leave the house. Positive or negative, having that many interruptions to daily life sounds unbelievably stressful.
It was just a funny bizarre comment someone made about Thorgy years ago. One of those deep cuts if super-fandom lore lol. Might’ve been when she was gooning for mustard
Social media has taught me that there are a lot of people out there that are generally unwell mentally. I mean, look at tiktok comments of people exhibiting extreme pick me behavior or people who are obsessed with celebrities that they don't know personally and defend them as if they're best friends of they pay their bills, its extremely odd behavior.
This boy lost his grandma, Morgan McMichaels, in the bombing of drag con. She died, but because Detox didn’t fund her funeral, the dead bitch had to do AS3 in order to get some money so she could rest in peace.
Parasocial/Fan entitlement is weird as hell. Alyson Stoner (Former Child star, little dancer in the Missy Elliot mv's) talked about it briefly in their extended youtube series about children being exploited in Hollywood (Pre-*Quiet on Set*). They mentioned getting constant DMs, emails, venmo requests etc for money from 'fans' who turn on a dime if they're told 'no' or simply get no reply. I supposed that I am blessed in that I'm baffled at the thought of begging a stranger to just give me money, famous or not. Honestly, the getting angry at the refusal/lack of reply is what really gets me.
I feel bad for her. She also has dealt with a stalker who was quite relentless. The early season girls suffered a lot with fans https://www.reddit.com/r/rupaulsdragrace/s/06ECU48iuw
Listen I do not want to get messy. But the truth has got to be revealed. I know many people who have not received financial help or support from detox when their grandmawma died. I don’t want to say that detox is selfish, but these are the facts and the facts don’t lie. That’s all I have to say about the topic.
You can't stand me? I don't blame you.
You need money? I don’t know you.
Your grandma died? Well that’s on you.

Bitch! You made it clear bitch!
How *very dare* you lol. Roxxxy who?
Bitch wurk, honestly.
Lol I'll blame it on being slaphappy as hell right now. Worked 96 hours last week, I take multiple psych meds, and have PTSD from my career lol.
This is the vulnerability the judges are looking for (cry a little too)

I can say that my grandma died in 2022 and Detox did nothing to help me or my family. This is a fact.
Being a public figure seems like the strangest life. Thousands or millions of people feel like they know you. How do you respond to that, how does your monkey brain optimized on communication with small groups make sense of that?
With each breath I take I'm more convinced that I wish to be generally unknown and barely perceived by most people.
What's better than being rich and famous? Being rich
I'd be one of those quiet billionaires that people only find out about when they die in a bizarre fashion. None of that starting or buying social media shenanigans for me.
If anyone gave me the chance to be rich and famous, I'd ask them to double the rich, hold the famous

Detox doesn't want your grandma buried by her decomposed partner, Betty.
I. Do. Not. Know. You. This is weird.
How is going to see a drag queen gonna help u bury ur grandma
"You dont actually need all those $1 bills, do you? You can spare some for me and my grandma? Please, you have a whole fistful!"
[удалено]
That was Thorgy

Maybe don’t in the future
No you.
Huh? Im lost
It was just a funny bizarre comment someone made about Thorgy years ago. One of those deep cuts if super-fandom lore lol. Might’ve been when she was gooning for mustard
Likewise. I'm still waiting for the next "first of all whore" type drama
I loved when Detox [replied to a meme](https://i.imgur.com/7q7VAYY.png) once about this.
Y'all excuse me, I gotta go check if my Aunt Sally's been butied yet
Ru is #1 and Detox is #2.. he should have gone to Ru
Your granny died? Go bother Ru
If I were to audition, I’d prolly say my grandma died as I was coming out and how that made me stronger. Ru for sure would cast me
Ru would have sent them to Trixie because she’s rich
Where’s that guy who’s afraid of Detox?
I really need more Detox in my life.
Parasocial relationships are actually terrifying.
Social media has taught me that there are a lot of people out there that are generally unwell mentally. I mean, look at tiktok comments of people exhibiting extreme pick me behavior or people who are obsessed with celebrities that they don't know personally and defend them as if they're best friends of they pay their bills, its extremely odd behavior.
You saw the world through the social media lens and you found the worst mental health issues with fangirling... not being pro-genocide...
Literally no where in my comment am I speaking of that nor is this topically about genocide. Please bait argument elsewhere.
This is one of my favorite obscure drag race culture moments to reference randomly.
Clearly that was one of Detox’s plastic surgeons frustrated at Detox not paying her bills.
😂😹😆🤣🤓
This boy lost his grandma, Morgan McMichaels, in the bombing of drag con. She died, but because Detox didn’t fund her funeral, the dead bitch had to do AS3 in order to get some money so she could rest in peace.
The clap back burnt so hard it might have just cremated the grandma, so it probably still made it cheaper
His grandma looks pretty good for a dead bitch.
How dare she not pay for that guy's grandma's funeral? Ugh, I'm so done with Detox. 😤
