Thank you, everyone — Brer was not kidding about how most of the votes happen on deadline day. You keep me on my toes x Sadly Daehun will receive a 33% deduction after not receiving any votes from them. (Oh, results tonight from 7pm BST)

Caribou - Honey
'Volume' is a banger especially but I am struggling to connect with this era — I think that has more to do with expectations than the quality of the singles. I'm sure (hope) everything will click when we have the album.

I can’t believe we all survived an entire season of Ella and Kitty. Is that the worst top three in the franchise? And the weakest cast?

Chappell Roan - The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess
They have handled this terribly but I don't think she's inauthentic — I think she and her team are struggling (in different ways) with this meteoritic rise and making mistakes in the process.

Addison Rae - Diet Pepsi
How am I supposed to listen to anything else?

167 ◾ Semi Finals
A little warning in advance to late voters that the deadline will not be extended and the results will be on Tuesday. I'll send reminders out tonight x

These Walls • Fourth Single
How often do songs get playlist support, dropped, and then picked up again a few months later?

This entire season feels so off and dark-sided. It should feel like the Olympics of drag. Nehellenia being gaslit and then ignored as she tried to articulate her feelings in another language — cursed.
