you do have to resist “kids today” because “kids today” is fascist. however, kids today are also themselves fascist but so were kids yesterday and the day before that. truth is age can never immunize you from fascism. in fact, pretty much nothing can make you demographically immune to fascism you simply have to stay vigilant every second of your life until you die. which is hard but worth it because fascism is the greatest mind killer and the more aspects of your life you resist being influenced by it the happier and more beautiful a life you live.

Even the columns light up.

Relax around the pond.

From the dining room you can see your cars.

Here's the everyday kitchen. Love all the colors of the marble.

You have to walk thru the car showrooms to get around. This is a home office.

There are so many places to sit.

In this sitting area the wall opens up.

The primary suite is crazy.

This is about the sexiness of The Golden Girls but I really feel the need to remind the world of how fucking progressive this show was.

In the episode 72 hours, we find out Rose may have contracted AIDs during an emergency gallbladder surgery.

Rose: Why me, Blanche? I'm tired of pretending I feel okay so you won't say, 'Take it easy', and I'm tired of you saying 'Take it easy' because you're afraid I'm going to fall apart. Dammit, why is this happening to me? I mean, this isn't supposed to happen to people like me. You must've gone to bed with hundreds of men. All I had was one innocent operation. Blanche: Hey, wait a minute! Are you saying this should be me and not you? Rose: No! No, I'm just saying that I am a good person. Hell, I'm a goody-two-shoes! Blanche: AIDS is not a bad person's disease, Rose, it is not God punishin' people for their sins!

In Isn't it romantic? we find out Dorothy's childhood best friend is a lesbian who recently lost her partner. She confesses she has feelings for Rose. Rose turns her down but makes it clear that she still wants to be friends even though she doesn't return those feelings.

Sophia: Jean is a nice person. She happens to like girls instead of guys. Some people like cats instead of dogs.

Jean: Rose, about last night. I should never have said anything. Rose: You only said what you were feeling. Jean: It's just that this last year has been so difficult for me. Pat was the person I planned to spend the rest of my life with. And when she died, I just felt so terribly alone. Empty. I thought I could never care for anyone again. Until I met you. I just got very confused. I hope I didn't make you uncomfortable. Rose: Well, I have to admit that I don't understand these kinds of feelings. But if I did understand, if I were, you know, like you, I'd be very flattered and proud that you thought of me that way.

Ebbtide's Revenge gives us Phil's funeral, and Sophia addressing him wearing women's clothes.

Rose: So what if he was different? It's okay that you loved him. Sophia: I did love him. He was my son, my little boy. But every time I saw him I wondered what I did, what I said, when was the day I did whatever I did to make him the way he was. Angela Petrillo: What he was Sophia, was a good man.

Sister of the Bride, where Blanche's brother Clayton brings his boyfriend to town, because they're planning on getting married.

Blanche: Oh, look, I can accept the fact that he's gay, but why does he have to slip a ring on this guy's finger so the whole world will know? Sophia: Why did you marry George? Blanche: We loved each other. We wanted to make a lifetime commitment. Wanted everybody to know. Sophia: That's what Doug and Clayton want, too. Everyone wants someone to grow old with. And shouldn't everyone have that chance?

There are so many episodes I could sit here and quote but this show is still so important. It isn't perfect, there are jokes that definitely don't land that I will not sit here and defend, but in the context of when it was created? This show is a fucking masterpiece and deserves respect for that.

And this was during the Reagan/Bush years.

I think that this show hit as hard as it did because it was during Reagan/Bush

Tara&Harry vs Team In-Jokes for @some-thrilling-heroics

[rejectingrepublicans]

MAGAt boot lickers claiming to be patriots while denouncing the rest of us.

For the poorly educated Republicans all they know is symbolism. The flag, the printed Constitution, the red, white and blue bunting and all the trimmings they can’t explain. The spoken pledge of allegiance mindlessly memorized verbatim without a clue about what it all truly stands for.

more about the story!!!

[scullysflannel]

was there some interview vince gilligan did (recently??) where he said something along the lines of "every show that treats tv as a visual storytelling medium owes a debt to the x-files" or did I hallucinate it

[lilydalexf]

There's a 2013 Huffington Post article where Vince Gilligan talks about visual storytelling. Here's a small part of what he says:

Now, I’m not the finest student of the history of TV, so there may be examples that predate “The X-Files," but to the best of my knowledge, that was the first show that truly approached the look of the TV show itself in terms of cinema, in terms of, "How much of the story can we tell visually?"
