Tommy from Norway explains his country's butter shortage.

If you've not heard, Norway is out of butter. The cause seems to be a cross between increased feed prices lowering milk production and a popular low-carb, high-fat weight-loss diet. (No, I'm not kidding!) Granted, I'm not well-versed on the Norwegian butter shortage, but I am well versed in angry boi. Thus comes Tommy from Norway that does not appreciate Americans thinking his country's butter shortage is hilarious. Maybe somebody could teach him to make his own butter out of heavy cream. It's, well, rather easy.

The Queen, 1968

For your morning history lesson, please enjoy the above.  The Queen was a documentary of a 1967 drag pageant.  Featuring names you may know (Flawless Sabrina, Crystal LaBeija, International Chrysis), the film is difficult to find, but finding and patching together the movie via YouTube gives one a feel for the action.  (YouTuber "clamarama" was the source for the above and two other good clips.)  The clip above is toward the finale, where Crystal LaBeija calmly reacts to not being in the top three finalists and gently suggests that the winners are perhaps part of a pre-arranged outcome.
