Observational Cinematic Compulsion Disorder with Trixie and Katya
49m 58s
The transcript captures a candid, emotionally charged reflection on travel, performance, and personal experience. The speaker criticizes airline practices—like open windows and middle-row seating—calling them uncomfortable and dehumanizing, especially when combined with sensory overload. They deeply question the legitimacy of psychic claims, particularly those made by Sylvia Brown, describing them as fraudulent and emotionally manipulative. A central highlight is their positive experience at Twitch Con, a well-organized live-streaming event where drag performances and technical excellence created a vibrant, community-centered atmosphere. The speaker reflects on the emotional intensity of live events, like concerts, where personal boundaries dissolve and deep connection is formed—most notably during a B-52s concert where an older person’s joy in music becomes a powerful, time-traveling experience. Memories of trauma, such as a traumatic moment at the Javits Center, underscore how environments can trigger deep emotional responses. Throughout, the speaker emphasizes authenticity, personal boundaries, and the emotional labor behind content creation and performance, contrasting it with commercialized, over-the-top narratives. Ultimately, the conversation celebrates joy, community, and the transformative power of music and shared experience, especially among older generations.

on playstation when you play call of duty people are like yeah yeah that's one thing and that's
not all they say oh god what do they say what do they say every slur oh no every slur like little
white middle schoolers screaming every slur oh but i don't play those type of games like the ones

like mmo is like massive multiplayer what is it massive online multiplayer i forget what you call
it it's like let's say it's basically a glorified game of um mmo yes that sounds horrifying so that
would be like you and dozens of other people from all over the world in the same game playing
together so theoretically is moral combat like that yeah you could play moral combat against
real people so i could be fighting someone in singapore oh yeah that's fierce yeah i could be
fighting rupaul i mean theoretically theoretically i think rupaul's making tiktoks i don't think she's
playing play mary she is saving the world through those instagram reels i'm sorry it is so it's the
one annie running through the parking lot crazy i like i'm like oh my god keep going grandma i like

just looking in a mirror slowly spinning she's so i i live for it so hard it's so fierce but you
know what i've been really into what these sylvia brown tiktoks what what people have been clipping
up so much and i'm like oh my god this is so much fun i'm like oh my god this is so much fun i'm like
oh my god this is so much fun i'm like oh my god this is so much fun i'm like oh my god this is so
much fun i'm like oh my god this is so much fun i'm like oh my god this is so much fun i'm like oh my
god this is so much fun i'm like oh my god this is so much fun i'm like oh my god this is so much fun
oh my god this is so much fun i'm like oh my god this is so much fun i'm like oh my god this is so much
fun i'm like oh my god this is so much fun i'm like oh my god this is so much fun i'm like oh my god
you don't want to okay that's it you don't thank you
hi sylvia my name is hasna and i'm uh about 18 years ago my father went on a business trip and
never returned the day that uh he was supposed to come he called and never came uh my family
searched high and low no results so i just want to know if he's dead or alive no he's alive in
florida does that make sense no thank you no but thank you so that makes sense is so cunty does
that make sense he's dead does that make sense no oh no she said he's alive oh no i know but like
he drowned that's amazing he drowned love that shit she was such a fraud such a fraud crazy
fraud i just want to meet my dad you wouldn't you don't want to you don't want to thank you
the crying i know that like oh god those on those psychics really socked it to you back in the day
love sylvia brown
and i did look up like because i went down a rabbit hole of her legitimacy and is there any
like legitimized clairvoyance and the best that's been recorded is when someone let's say
if they help the police find a dead body they will be wrong three more times
yeah it's not a one-to-one ratio it's not real but for me it is he drowned do you think i could
i mean it's like it's the conviction with which he gave those like permanent whatever it's like so
cunty she was like it was it was just like fraud but i do believe in tapping into the intuitive self
yeah but she's literally just lying you think she's like yes totally she's just like talking
out of her asshole i would be like the 2025 version of that and be like where is my father
he was pew pew'd oh my god he unalived he unalived and was pew pew'd in florida in florida
that's fucking hell sylvia was sylvia brown who else was um who's the other one oh the long island
medium does she she actually talks to dead folk
people do say she is amazing in what way like is she like she has accurate um really i guess what
would you call it she throws out lines and that they are received and verified by all its members
oh i think it's probably research though don't you think how like googling people in the audience
no but i mean like they probably have to fill out a form and then they're facebooked or whatever
you know what i mean i mean i understand like you know i've been learning tarot and i do understand
that in a lot of ways those type of things are not going to work for me i don't know if that's
true but those type of things are a mirror and so they are true because you are when someone says
you're going through a change yeah you go i am and the first thing that comes to your mind is
what you're really going through yeah yeah so it's not that it's fake yeah but it is more like
you kind of already know yeah like what i like about that tarot shit is if someone says oh there's
a huge conflict that you just have to squash your brain will tell you what that big conflict is and
so you already know it's kind of universal it's kind of universal but you're the one attaching
meaning to it like wow i guess my big conflict is that you're going through a change yeah you're
the one attaching meaning to it like wow i guess my big conflict is this yeah but you know but
that's not that's different than saying like your dead dad said this about this yeah that's kind of
crazy that's kind of crazy he drowned yeah he was pew-pewed while drowning do they really say pew-pew
oh yeah it's fierce oh my god it's fierce it's fierce i don't like that i don't like that at all
they're singing on tiktok everywhere always i asked bob about it i was like do you know
about pew-pewed he was like oh yeah pew-pewed no what that is really that's really troubling
yeah it's tough so san diego i hadn't been in so long okay san diego is so beautiful it has the

say hi to drag queens because I'm afraid that I've met them I'm afraid they were on drag race
yeah exactly winners in drag race that way not I don't care about looking at it as much as I care
about hurting hurting feelings yeah yeah it's so awkward dear this incredible streamer that I love
most gorgeous one of the most beautiful drag makeups I've ever seen in real life in my whole
life dear
d-e-r-e d-e-r-e her makeup is so cool and graphic we can if you guys are watching we put a screenshot

ediana oh yeah she's good what are those lips what's going on with those lips she draws the
oh it's like oh it's like the the shiny part she draws the gloss on that's fierce oh that's
actually fierce and in person it reads I always thought like it reads like wet like that's fierce
and on camera if you're a professional
streamer you mostly drag from your own lighting oh right you can really go for it yeah in person
I was like you look more amazing fierce drag trashly is a big streamer who was there um I mean
it's it was a live streamable show pharaoh was at twitch wait how is she she streams like full time
now she is so gorgeous I know it's like oh I didn't get to see her that weekend I knew she was

funny so pussy pussy pussy it was like y2k so she was in kind of her black and blonde christina
galera with like knots in her hair y2k vibes fierce eating eating I just had so much fun at
twitch con it made me remember how much I loved streaming I loved live streaming no what is like
when you do you like not I don't get it like do you make money from that um when I did I did it
mostly for charity like what like what is it like so if you're a streamer yeah let's say you caught
you wanted to start a twitch yeah yeah yeah let's say every night you're like oh my god I'm gonna
from 6 to 8 p.m you do a live show okay where you dj play video game you cooking class yeah you
whatever you want to do for a live television basically okay it's live television but it's
from your house like youtube okay so some people make it about video gaming some people make it
about crafting yoga okay djs okay um but I love a lot of the gamers and um I just I love twitch and
I loved meeting all the streamers and these people basically one man show produce television channels
no shit overlays I've seen your setup it's like it's wild it looks like a whole fucking studio
it looks like like an actual like tv studio I think you would like it actually you get to control the
lighting yeah you don't have to get in drag from the waist down oh that's talk to your fans directly
do whatever content you can do a sewing stream you know what I'm doing I'm gonna do I just talked
to mark the other day like I'm doing um uh which one called asmr I love I love I love it so much
do you ever listen to asmr no I don't like it you don't like why well there's so many different types
there's like a novel
you don't like that for me like um 2019 really it just did it hit for like a month and I was like
that's funny and yeah what I do like is the situations okay I do like like you're just
waking up with your vampire boyfriend okay I do love the situation your second cranial nerve exam
or whatever yeah someone's at the mall doing your makeup okay I'm just gonna do your lips
the situation is more interesting to me than the sound okay I don't get into big pickle like crunch
stuff like that that yeah I don't like mouth sounds are not really my game like what about
we thing okay
it was really fun to be in San Diego and do church on and I got to work for the sims I work for the
sims like all the time you worked for the sims last year yeah yeah love the sims their booth
was so cool if you guys are a long time if anybody plays sims the robber that's in the sims in black
and white with the mask like creeping in the game who steals from you they had an actor there dressed
like him with a mask on and he was like oh my god I'm gonna do this I'm gonna do this I'm gonna do
the little green thing about his head creeping around the booth just trying to steal from people
it was so funny and he never talked so he would come up and like look at you and like your phone
sitting there he'd be like oh it was so funny I cracked up and also compared to no offense to
drag con mama it was nice good air conditioning drag con is so boo-boo and it was low lighting
oh fear so everybody looked no overhead fluorescence no it was like the soft glow of my god
calm convention and I want to my thought went to for people who love twitch they might love twitch
because it's entertainment for people who maybe don't want to go out socially social anxiety
autism yeah sensory overload yeah yeah dimmer lights like that I'm like some of these people
could actually have fun at a convention instead of feeling overwhelmed I know that always struck
me because like at drag drag con it was so overwhelming so like wow so like stressful
you know what I mean everybody's like stressed out and I'm like I was always impressed at like
the the um I don't know the wokeness or the resilience no the resilience of these people
who are like a little bit awkward you know what I mean oh yeah I would like I wouldn't have lasted
like 10 minutes as a person like entering it's just like well and for people who are primarily
content creators from home I think it's fair to say that they maybe create that kind of content
because they feel more comfortable than live performance in front of people in real life
yeah and so I do think for a lot of streamers not just the audience but
the streamer themselves might have chosen streaming because that environment can be
overloading so I just like that it was a chill vibe I got to walk oh my god Nick and I did comic
con like last year wait did you do it you do it in drag yeah but a lot of people don't do it
they do it out of their character right isn't that right I mean it like Cassandra Peterson
will probably not dress up as a virus that's what I mean yeah yeah yeah but we were at New York and
I was like we probably need security it was like when I go in here I tied my hair up I was like
a bomb's gonna go off I'm so fucking famous nobody nobody paid you though I'm talking me
walking through hordes of people no one batting an eye you're kidding me no one giving straight
fuck it was we have video footage so humiliating that so much oh my god with a camera lights no
one caring oh my god so then this year getting followed around by a camera and nobody cares no
that's so fierce we almost got security this year and our management was like you know
um Jinx has a great security team like I could give you their
number I said do they have experience with celebrities I think that's kind of fun but
wait wait wait did you see the clip oh my god of Jared Leto coming out to at the premiere of um
what was it Tron to a theater that was maybe like filled a quarter of the way that's tough
why did no one want to see Tron um I don't know um I think it's like flopped big time
it's a big time flop but like Mary if that were me I would like in my publicist you know was like
bring the car around
I'd be like I think we're just gonna skip it yeah yeah gas I get a little gas sometimes
no that is like merit so that's that's that's but it's one or the other because sometimes in
the environments I find myself in a situation where I mean no tea there have been security
incidents at these conventions yeah and will continue to happen yeah so sometimes it's like
you don't want to have by security sometimes what I mean is can someone grab my hand and
briskly walk me where I'm going because I don't know where I'm going yes
right if I look lost it's better to have someone just with a flashlight confidently saying here's
how to get to where you're going yeah I don't need someone to push people I need a navigator
well you know I had people I had um I was carried at DragCon UK carried out yeah like they if I had
to go like have a cigarette or go to the bathroom they they pick me up and carry me and run it was
great so it was like who's they um the security Dawson he could do it no the amazing security at
DragCon UK they were like I'm gonna go to DragCon UK I'm gonna go to DragCon UK I'm gonna go to
DragCon UK they were so hot and so nice and so wonderful and I think was I injured no no there
was a rumor that I was injured because I wasn't walking I had fun at DragCon UK it was yeah it
was great I think it was I just I don't I had fun at DragCon I remember it was nice it was like the
lighting is always hell Mary and LA Convention Center was hell I'm saying it whatever the Javits
Center the Javits Center we need to talk about Javits
Javits Center we need to talk about Javits Center

when my dad was shot in front of me and I remember Javits Center right that's like that kind of thing
like I when we entered the uh convention center um and right before I was uh entering my booth

the annie one with the she's using the she was the microphone running through the parking lot
for so long i just shoved the nuke up my pussy oh my god it's like oh it's so fun it's so good
i think i'm just gonna make like a super cut and just watch that instead of tv i think you should
yeah
i think that's valid thank you you know honestly it's miss javits oh let's go back to javits well
i remember one year you and i were promoting trixie and cut down viceland remember they put
all this money into the advertising there were big plaques of us around that was nice yes oh yeah
it was i had a blast doing that the press for trixie and our show that was fun nick was javits
center comic-con see i had a fine time at the comic-con so maybe it's the drag but also we're
so famous at drag con yeah
just getting to the bathroom at drag con is an issue you know it is so interesting like i
isn't it done now okay so we can speak all the day yeah i mean listen i will i'll never forget
the first drag con because we were right next to each other we shared a booth that we were at the
first drag con that's a first drag con and it was it was crazy and i remember running on fumes
never went to the bathroom nine hour meet and greet nine hour meet and greet no bathroom no
food no water when i got back to the hotel my body just collapsed like i've never felt worse
in my whole life but because it was all like adrenaline and like fun and i was like because
it was amazing yeah and then but no i mean it was literally all that wore off within like three
minutes and then i was like oh fuck and i became a husk of a person it was so interesting and every
time i did drag con in new york i would say like the yotel so i'm staying in a room that's like
an oven like like a tiny oven it's tiny all new york hotels suck shit yeah that's not true you
gotta get you a room at the mandarin whoa that's a five-star hotel yeah it is like twelve hundred
dollars a night or something yeah yeah what was it what was the year that you wore a 45 pound wig
and almost had an aneurysm that was la that was la was that the second one you know i don't mean
to speak ill of drag con it's just conventions in general are just hard when your job is meeting
and greeting yeah honestly and when we're younger this is the issue too we're blaming other people
we should have personal boundaries but i'm gonna go do two hours and go home that's what that's what
i did the personal obligation that i put on myself to meet and greet for six hours a day yeah i would
meet and greet from like 12 to 6 yeah why am i doing that i think i think we ended up pre-selling
them i'm not trying i'm not trying to brag by the way we didn't sell them i did i just always did
you have to have a merchant buy merchandise okay maybe we didn't sell them no because some girls
started doing vip you could pay more to be in the front oh yeah people didn't like oh yeah a lot and
there was a lot of um there was a lot of politics commotion about like so and so is charging this so
and then people were like well i'm charging nothing and they would like promote that as if
they were mother theresa and you know what i mean it was very also like okay both people in your
line are gonna love that that sounds horrible no i don't mean it that way but like but i never
charge i only charge for you had to buy something yeah because they charge us to be there we're
paying oh yeah by the way they fully square footage a dragon are you out of your mind it's
more than new york real estate javits center was like by the pound crazy charged by the pound of
what that's why oh my god every time i dream of god one of my sets as if i had a set i think
somebody wrote a crayon catch it and pinned it to a pole but i remember when you're seeing jinx
just have a she just had a ring light a curtain and i was almost like
yeah yeah they're here for you yeah that's all they're here for this is why are we making a con
what are we doing yeah it's not set design i was like this is a convention go sit at the card table
for 20 minutes i know we all got whipped up into some kind of like you were gonna get a hospital
bed i was gonna shout out a cannon i don't know what the fuck we were doing and no one made us
do this so what was that we're complaining about drag i really couldn't all the shit about it was
our fault i know i know the hospital that would have been great i would have been great like
or i would have been the the dad from strangers of candy or contagion contagion yeah oh my god
body doubles body doubles of course of them i mean you could have had six tricksy if i had that
if i knew what i knew now the new tricksy the new improved tricksy oh my god run her into the ground
do you know people still don't seem to know that i was that she was on houses she was on salt lake
city housewives and i wasn't wait what i was busy and they went to my bar in milwaukee rest in peace
and i was like well i'm not around just get the other tricksy and just don't put a body mic on her
and they credit her as not tricksy tricksy double and people still are like that night my own
friends friends from college were like girl come say hi we saw you
like oh my god that's hysterical and the other women instead of like i thought it would be a fun
gag where they'd be like oh my god it's not you huh they don't get it none of them knew they
don't know their ass i don't think they knew no a white refrigerator white refrigerator
which how do you um speaking of the housewives cage match
yeah who would win what do you mean who would win in a cage match lisa rena nicholas cage
she came on your grinder pod she is she nice she was she's a big fag right i was so scared
she was a doll oh why were you scared because she was like i don't know well a because i'm not super
familiar with the housewives i i know i wasn't like incredibly familiar with her career right
and i thought there was a good chance that she'd be a cunt i don't know and also it was a little
strange like hey you're not a man you're a woman who's been married to the same guy for like 30
years harry hamlin yeah very sexy and she's like i don't know i don't know i don't know i don't know
you know was one in one of the first like gay roles that kind of got him kicked out of hollywood

thing the look she was all in black she just looks so chic and we had a blast she was so
fucking funny she was talking about how she wants to get it she wants to have um cut people's head
off with chainsaws for her good for her american horror story chainsaw chainsaw american horror
she should be on a horror story that seems like no she wants to and i think she should yeah she
would be a natural but what are they bothering with kim kardashian when lisa renna's around
i don't know kim kardashia do you know what happened to me the other thing about drag

because you never got to see the girls unless you did the show which was always fun that was a blast
that was really fun to do i had a blast doing that i would do another one if it ever came back i would
do it but i would do it like i said smart go for two hours yeah panel and go home yeah that's i
think that's what i did the last one it was like i will be there from 12 to 2 i'm doing a panel and
then another two hours we complain about it but like drag con was never like you must do an eight
hour meet and greet no that's our own mental illness i know but i know i was always like i
don't want people it's not line con i know i don't like i don't like people having to wait in line so
long i know it sucks um sucks i had an experience i was flying oh i think i told you this was i on
the plane with you you know no you were flying the plane i'm the invisible man no i had to fly to
miss my flight to rome car service never picked me up so car service no call no show so relatable
no call no show so got in the car finally after the uber came and i was like we're not gonna make
it that 30 minutes we needed that to get to the airport so so um called called maddie she's like
i've never used this car service before like i can't believe they no call she rebooks me thank
god and she's like all right you're gonna have to fly through turkey and by the way it was seven
thousand extra dollars work um said but i'm not gonna
miss the gig that's like seven grand seven grand to istanbul
So, I thought of this because of the Yotel.
I had to stay overnight at the Yotel Istanbul.
What is a fucking Yotel?
It's like a modular hotel.
What is the Yotel?
Tiny room.
Where does the Yotel come from?
Yo, like yo, Yotel, you know, it's your hotel.
Your hotel, got it.
I don't know, I made that up.
But I flew Turkish Airlines.
Do you know what it's like to fly first class as a bald white man?
Bald, oh my God.
Everybody clocks your T.
The flight attendant was like, everything's going to change.
Your life's about to change forever.
Yeah, they gave me like a bouquet of flowers.
Oh my God.
You should have come back with the only piece on.
Me getting off the plane, it was like, we welcome you to Munchkinland.
No, why haven't they like outsourced that shit?
Why is Turkey the destination to get the only, it seems to be the only destination to get hair.
My other issue with Turkish Airlines is, whatever, shoot me in the eye, bitch.
I flew first class.
Shoot me in the eye.
As if people are going to expect for you to ride in the back of the cabin.
There is a.
Middle row in first class on this Turkish airline.
Mama, that's no, that's no first class.
I'm in the middle.
Middle row.
Middle row.
American Horror Story, middle row.
And I was so depression because I had to pay 7,000 extra dollars.
To be in the middle row?
No, just to get another flight.
Oh, oh, oh.
Because I'm not going to miss the gig.
Now, why do they make you pay 7,000?
Well, who knows?
I don't know.
They cast some runes, look at some bones, and then that's the price.
The thing is, the airlines, you got somewhere to go and they know it.
They got you.
They have your balls in a vice grip.
Right.
Pussy with a clamp.
And I'm feeling emotional.
And so I'm, the woman next to me, not, not the person on the other side, because there
is two, is watching The Notebook.
And I did something I never do, which is watch that whole movie while off her screen with
no headphones on.
Like, like the killer.
So she's watching the movie with headphones on and I'm like this.
I can't not watch a movie if I can see it.
I don't know what it is.
It's compulsion.
If I'm on the, if I'm on an aisle seat, next row on the right, say I'm on the left aisle,
next row.
If I'm on the right, that person, I can't not watch the movie.
I can't not watch it.
I, it's, and I'm riveted and I'm locked in.
It could be.
Have you ever seen somebody watching yourself?
Herbie 2 fully loaded.
It could be Shawshank Redemption.
It could be like any movie.
I don't even want to watch it, but I have to.
Have you ever caught somebody watching yourself?
Drag Race?
Isn't Drag Race on there?

Yellow is very energizing
It is super energizing
And you can see it from the downstairs
I had a runner put on the stairs
And I almost came

I've been dreaming about runners
This is so fascinating
The people on the 101 and on the 5 listening to us
I've been having dreams about putting the runners on these stairs
Right
For like years
I've lived there for a year
But they did it
And they did it so fast
And they did it so fast
And they did it so well
And from the outside
You can see the bright yellow of the room
If the doors open
And it's so bewitching and enchanting
Thank God
Thank God
I can't wait to have you come over when it's done
Yeah
Well you're doing one room at a time
Which is probably
How most people do it
If they're living there while they do it
Right?
You know
Yeah
Oh that's the other thing
Is like
I know first world problems big time
I
I can't
I can't deal with the noise

The drilling noise
Or the hammer

It's tough
It's a lot of
A lot of noise
It's a lot of dust
It's a lot of people coming and going
Yeah
That I don't mind
Although my
My door is always unlocked
People coming and going
Is kind of draining too
Yeah
I mean that's like a big part of it
But the two guys
The
The
The cast of characters is changing a lot
Which is
I'm a little uncomfortable with
But now I got these two guys
They are so sexy
I wanna fuck them so bad
I'm
I was seriously considering
Well yes
I was
I was seriously considering like
Doing like a little magic thing
Where like I go in the room
And I come out
A total fucking woman

I got this shipment of wigs that came
That is the exact wig JLo wears
At her fucking crazy ass concert

We had a
Our head contractor for Trixie Motel season 2
Was so gorgeous
The long haired guy
No he had short hair
But he was so handsome
Yeah
That was the designer
I loved him
The contractor was so fine
Yeah
He was
I had
My friend was staying this weekend as a realtor
And I was like
Be honest
Did I ruin my house?
Is it too crazy?
If I ever want to resell it
Is it just too crazy?
And he said
It's a lot of bold colors
He said but
It'll show really well
And people who see that a house is like
They see a house as decorated very
One way
And they see potential for what they want to do to it
Yeah
Like
You didn't ruin your house
They're like
And everyone wants a pink kitchen
But he's like
Somebody could paint your kitchen white
And just keep the pink tile
And it would be pretty neutral
Yeah
I don't
I struggled with
Painting the hallway
The hallway was too big
Totally jacked
Like totally jacked
And we needed to paint it
And patch it up big time
And I chose white
Like a gloss
A semi-gloss white
Because I was like
This is what a normal person would do
And it looks fine
Do bold art
If I could do my house all over again
I think I would have done a lot of white walls
But a lot of bold furniture and art
That's so
I've got a big
I've got a great idea for the art
But now
Because the walls look so good
I don't want to put anything in them
Do contact strips
Really?
Yeah
Okay
You've got to prep the wall first
But do contact strips
Okay
Alright
Because I don't want to
I don't want to bang holes in the wall
This is so fascinating to people I know
Yeah but you can always patch them
Yeah
Don't live for the person who lives there after you
I have to tell you before we go
Last night
This weekend
The B-52s

I levitate toward them
It's like
Do you remember
Do you remember hereditary
When her headless body floats
Up to the treehouse
That's me to the B-52s
Like I'm just like
I like weapons
Ran out of my house
To the fucking concert
