“In the end, blaming social media and the internet for the ways we edit and split may be just another means of hiding from ourselves—a way of denying truths about who we are, about things we struggled with long before Twitter or Instagram. To assign the blame elsewhere and say the fault lies outside of us, with something out there beyond our control. Something in the algorithms, or in the stars.”

“I wasn't exactly thrilled about it being a Lutheran organization, but when you live in Minnesota - land of lutefisk and home to no less than seven Lutheran colleges and four Lutheran seminaries - Lutherans are kind of inescapable.”

“In drag, the concept of “realness” doesn’t necessarily mean what you might think. For many drag artists, realness isn’t about trying to “pass”—to blend in with the crowd without notice—but rather about standing out and apart. By disrupting and shining a light on our assumptions, drag realness can expose that what is most real is in the in-between, in the blurring itself, in tearing up the playbook of gender. The realness of drag is that it heightens, dramatizes, and deviates in order to reveal—it holds up a mirror to us, showing us the gender baggage we inherit and inviting us to discard our conventions.”
