Well, I’m new to the dip scene, though I’m sure my husband would say I’m a little dip. Seven layers. Acidic Cream. Coach, put me in, I’m ready to play! drift boss
I agree with those who say Zendaya did a great job in her episode. I’m not a huge fan of Euphoria, but just that fifth episode is better than what Lynskey got all season. In the first scene, Zendaya is scary good, showing a side of addiction that I had never seen shown so openly before. If she won for season 1 even though she wasn’t the favorite, I think she’ll win again for her best work yet.
