Conchita Wurst, don`t forget! Christianity, and Islam, are the world enemies #1.

Tiny Tim died of a ‘HEARD’ attack?

Y’know, I’m usually not that nitpicky about Queerty articles, but putting Boy George on the same list as Samwell and Chris Crocker just seems wrong.

I watched the Eurovision contest on Saturday. Conchita was fabulous and here victory was well deserved, but the nice margin she had was due, at least in part, as a statement telling Putin to stuff it where the Sun doesn’t shine. Russia was actually booed when it made it into the semi-finals.

Since we’re on icons, here are a few of my Eurovision faves:

The ever fabulous Verka Serduchka (she was robbed!):

Krista’s Marry Me, complete with lesbian kiss at the end:

And, just to be gratuitous, here’s something that’s rather steamy!

The Russian Vice President says,the result demonstrates supporters of European Integration what awaits them:”A Girl with a Beard !”
I say:”Why not ?”
Conchita Wurst (=sausage) got 12 Points ( highest rating) from the german callers and 0 points from the german “expert panel”idiots= just 7 Points from Germany to the well-deserved Winner!

God Bless Tiny Tim is a legitimately great album.

That’s it. That’s all.
