  • Rupaul’s Drag Race. I was super turned off by the idea of watching a show about drag queens. I mean, what can be so great about a bunch of men dressing up like women, right?

    And during the earlier seasons there were clips and memes circulating online that were, frankly, entertaining and really made me curious so I decided to give the show a try. And wow, I could not believe how easily it made me realize how much internalized homophobia and transphobia I had even as a gay man! The show really opened my eyes to the side of a community that I claimed to be a part but knew absolutely nothing about. Even my partner who refused to watch the show with me for the longest time and finally gave in expressed the same thoughts and realizations that I had.

    It also helped me understand how easy it is for someone who is LGBT-phobic to remain so prejudiced and hateful if there is no exposure or education about the communities and cultures we’re not a part of.

    I honestly found peace as a gay man that I didn’t know I was missing. And that may sound a little dramatic but it completely changed how I live my life

  • I agree 100%. I know that there are a lot of people who didn’t like it, but I’m so glad that the film had an impact on others like it did to me. It became an instant favorite and helped me come to terms with a lot of the thoughts and emotions I struggle with

  • Thank you so much for the updates, and thank you for also listening to the users and implementing the suggested changes so quickly! I don’t know if and where this may have been asked, but do you anticipate the need to raise any funding? I know so many people are against the monetization if apps and stuff, but do you have any plans for those who want to contribute?

  • I’m honestly not sure how common it is, but I don’t know anyone personally that does the same thing. It’s so normal to me but people who I don’t usually eat with will comment when they notice I have 5-6 different piles of food on my plate all containing every side ready to be eaten one by one lol

  • I absolutely second this. There are a few changes that I didn’t mind and kept the game fresh. The other zombie modes do not interest me nearly enough or are too different to what I was used to.

  • There’s an idea that any time you sleep you wake up a different person. The only thing that makes you you are your memories and how can you be sure that the you that woke up isn’t just some kind of clone with your memories?

    On the surface it seems a little silly, but thinking about it for a while gives me anxiety
