Is the internet one big drag show?

From The Content Lab

What I’m saying is that the things that make drag drag are the very things that make the Internet the Internet. Take the idea of “mash-ups.” That’s an Internet thing. Isn’t it also fundamental to drag? The idea of picking and choosing different styles, tastes, fabrics, and whatever-else-is-out-there and repackaging it into something new?

Verging on parody, RuPaul repeats the same phrases show after show. Those sound bites become hashtags on Twitter and get plastered to user-generated images all over the web. Then you’ve got the animated .gif’s that capture hilarious moments in the show popping up everywhere.

All of these things show a level of self-awareness that is both extremely high-brow and extremely low-brow. It’s like Drag Race is perfectly attuned to the fact that it’s just a show, and it’s playing with that medium and bringing the audience inside the joke so we can all enjoy it as insiders. That playfulness seems very drag to me — it’s all performance. Everything happens to plug the performance. Toget the message out there. Just like the Internet.

In my opinion, everyone has disabilities in life — mine is just a little more obvious.

How unreasonable would it be to drop everything and move to an elephant reserve?

“I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other.”
