☢ BJSC 169 ☢ DECOMPOSITION
Well, I almost got it right. Alt bloc came through hard *.* This is my first time sharing my 18 points with the winner! 'Screamland' has been on constant repeat for the past two weeks. Congrats to Chez and well done Leww for an incredible theme this month Massively surprised and very happy with a top ten result with 'BROKEN' — thank you to everyone that voted for Nelly and Ela

I hear Bronzil is beautiful in November booking my flights x <3

☢ BJSC 169 ☢ RUMINATION
I’m going with a cross-support Hendinia win with Terra Avium following due to numerous medal placements from the alt countries (I’ll be completely wrong ofc *.*)

Chappell Roan - TBA
90s Shania yee-haw is one of the only yee-haws I'll accept — plus points if the song is a queer girl topping anthem

RPDR | UK | Season 6
I have not been a fan of Charra at all but found her amusing? The audition storyline and not getting the part was a smart way of using an insanely stupid RuPaul idea and making it work — I tend to hate when Ru interferes but she managed to do something with it Honestly, I would have given the win to Lill in combination with her unhinged runway look — but I understand why La Voix won. I just think Liza has been done better before, but I appreciate how present her and Kyran were (and Kyran really does commit to a character)

☢ BJSC 169 ☢ MAINTENANCE
This is such a strong final and definitely one for the alt girlies — struggling to decide which songs to cut

Disease ● 2nd single
The juxtaposition of daily suburbia feels very intentional though. The sets and lighting are giving A24 too So many references to chew on here. Need to watch it again *.*

Queer
Ooft this looks stunning and very Lynch

Radical Optimism • THE RATE RESULTS
What a song *.* Yes @ this description. I like to live in a fantasy universe where 'Houdini' was an actual reflection of the album and not an outlier

Confidence Man - 3AM (LA LA LA)
'SO WHAT' completely killed my hype for this and then 'SICKO' pulled me right back in *.* The way they've captured the unhinged high-energy essence of 90s dance so perfectly — bop after bop. The title track is giving Orbital?! 1UBVNWRbD4Y

Addison Rae - Aquamarine
The absolute hold this has on me

Herbilore National Thread
It would be a shame to see you go. Our tastes are completely different, but I have always appreciated that you send music you genuinely love — which I know can make it more even disappointing. I just hope you see that your entries have been valued. They have connected and resonated with people, even if they haven’t connected with everyone.

Do you ever wonder if the predictions are influential?
I find the odds threads just add to the BJSC fun and experience tbh — they’re subjective, often way off-base, and can't really impact results with so many nations involved. Of course, it’s disappointing not to qualify (especially with a song you love) but placing any kind of significant blame on something as innocuous as the predictions thread (or even the veto process) seems a tad unwarranted.

☢ BJSC 169 ☢ STABILISATION
Ela <3 Pleasantly surprised to see Scotland 2, Séyetana, and Persephonia all through. Harmonica too. I thought at least two of those spots would have gone to a pop entry — it's interesting just how crucial the draw of a semi is. Intrigued to see just how close this was. 12 Q 10 Q 08 Q 07 Q 06 Q 05 Q 04 DOSE 02 ☢ Pestolia ☢ Leah Dou - CATS 03 Q 02 Q 01 Q Just listened to 'cigarette burns' and shocked that didn't qualify. High-quality Demi? (Justice for Joanna Newsom though x)

Is it too late for physicals etc? (I am out of the loop with these things)
-
Disease ● 2nd single
You're right, of course, and hopefully the confused amongst us will have eggs on our faces when the video is fantastic and released in a few days.

Disease ● 2nd single
It's hard not to feel like the reception to Joker has surprised her/them. I just hope they weren't expecting the presumed smash of Joker to be working in tandem with this because it's feeling very muted so far.

RPDR | Global All Stars
Love Alyssa but this was not her season. I don't really understand the point of Global All Stars if you're just going to crown a legend from the original American franchise that doesn't need the title (nor the money) — especially if they didn't deserve it. Outside of her runway looks (not her design challenge looks) she was stronger in All Stars 2. I'll take her over Kween or Kitty though. Bleak. This needs to be binned, or they need to figure out how to incorporate ESL queens more fairly. I think we would have all much preferred an Olympics-style season with medals etc — something celebratory without being a circle jerk like All Stars 9. A more international judging panel wouldn't hurt.

Disease ● 2nd single
That is absolutely an AI collage of the promo images Is there any idea when the video is releasing? I'm surprised it's not out already — you can just tell it's going to elevate this even further
-
Disease ● 2nd single
This song further proves to me how important it is to let a song breathe and not kneecap it at 2 and a half minutes — sometimes a song just needs another minute to blow the roof off. There is a universe where this finishes at 2:45 and I rebuke it

RPDR | UK | Season 6
This season This cast is so wonderful — my favourites change every week. What a great episode from top to bottom. It also feels strange watching Drag Race and completely agreeing with the judging.
