1h 25m · Published 12 Dec 02:45
Nothing says Christmas like quite Charlene Unger, a demented housewife from Berwyn, Illinois whose bubbly enthusiasm for singing in her nightgowns is paired beautifully with her obsession for growing poinsettias.

Created by comedian Peter Mohawk in the 80s, Charlene was a huge fixture in Chicago’s entertainment scene, appearing on Oprah with Cyndi Lauper, in a Cooking Drag Queen TV show pilot with William Shatner and even featured on the cover of *NSYNC’s final album “Celebrity.”

Who Wants to Die for AI Art?

1h 7m · Published 07 Dec 18:28

Today we’re taking a look at artificial intelligence portraits, how it’s tapping into our minds to create portraits that shake us to the core by revealing a side of ourselves that we couldn't see before.

A front runner on season 6 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, Courtney’s season included many memorable people and moments that became a big part of queer culture.

But it wasn’t all fun, glitter and games. The show had issues with its lack of trans representation which put Courtney in the awkward situation of getting blocked by host RuPaul on Twitter for speaking out against the silent ban.

Ironically, today gender is more fluid than ever, and it feels like all the contestants on Drag Race are either trans or non binary.
