The Balance of Power
Each person reacts differently to the stimuli they are given in a particular environment. At early ages we start to react to specific things different than our peers, what we like, and dislike varies completely.

All The Queen’s Men
Last night I experienced one of the most spectacular shows in all the drag I have seen. All the Queen's Men made their eastside debut last night at ALL AXS and they knew how to bring the show.
