Bitch got in the pool

On Pride Sunday, the week-long boner that is Pride Week finally ejaculates and it flows alllllll day and night. First, the Pride parade. Rules: 1) Don’t miss this shit 2) Wear no clothes 3) Find me and I’ll put you on camera because I’m filming interviews and I really want to make your tits a YouTube star.

Then it’s party time, and you better feel like triple penetration: I’m looking forward to Truckerdisco/Thickset (see below post), Queer Bash: Hipster Vanity vs Drag Queen Insanity, and Rapture: Gotham. Hopefully, I won’t get shot with anything but a big load.

Here is a photo of RuPaul’s Drag Race contestant Jujubee during her closing performance at the Rapture Heatwave party today on the roof of the Westin. Check out Blitz & Shitz in the next issue of Xtra for all my Pride coverage.
