26 min - Drag!!!
I take a little dip into a few parts of the history of drag. At the moment, it seems that an entire political party in the United States has their sites set on Drag performers and Trans people. Hopefully, this brief overview prove that Drag is nothing new and that civilization is tough enough to not crumble under the weight of false lashed and acrylic nails.
