If Stuntmen from the old movies don’t have your full respect then I just don’t know what to say to you
Inl tried really hard not to reblog this
These aren’t even stuntmen. These are the actors, because that’s the way it was done back then.
What Wil said. Buster Keaton and Harold Lloyd and the rest of them were remarkable…
That is incredible!
The fact of the matter is that I grew up during the course of this show. I started when I was 24 and am ending at almost 34 - that’s almost a third of my life. I was so young and naive and impressionable and didn’t have a clue about the business or anything at that time.To grow up and to make mistakes along the way and to experience my life while trying to be somebody else 18 hours a day has been an interesting task. And I also did it very publicly. - Gillian Anderson, New York Times, 2002
I respect her so much. Sure, she made some bad choices along the way, but what she did was so incredibly difficult as a young woman. I just want to give her a hug.
Yes, agreed. I'm the same age as she was at the end of the show, and I still feel like a kid. I see her having grown into this amazing mature woman on the show, and I keep thinking "why do I feel like a kid still?". Maybe it's impostor syndrome or something, but with a very serious career, a marriage, three kids and a mortgage, I wake up daily wondering when I'll feel like a grown up.
So I myself don't have any children, yet, but I'm really enjoying this dialogue on baby led weaning and trying to build a positive food relationship in children. I'm just curious, what do you do in regards to over eating as the child gets older? Like a 6 year old who loves to eat but is now realizing their size in relation to other kids their age? It seems like such a tricky situation. Would you just control the options of food, but still have them try everything (within the options provided)?
Well, it’s hard for me to speak to that specifically because it’s not a situation I have dealt with. But mostly I’d say modeling good behavior is best, and healthy food choices should be modeled and encouraged. I talk about calories with my children, but only from a biochemical standpoint, like they know calories are like gas for a car. We don’t aside values such as good foods or bad foods, but we have “always foods” and “sometimes foods.” They know that “always foods” such as produce, plain yogurt with nuts or jam, air popped popcorn, etc are always available if they are hungry. If they don’t want to eat those choices, then they are encouraged to find something to do other than eating. Kids go through chubby and skinny phases and I would never put a young child on any kind of restrictive diet - just help them make nutritious decisions.
@icedteainthebag has some wonderful insights on this topic.
Thank you, AV. I had only a few minutes to type out a few of my many thoughts on parenting food-wise kids. I have my own food issues and I try to parent with those in mind, so I like to view my approach to kid food as reasonable and middle of the road.
Keep reading
Love love love.
Help. There are good reviews of ‘Babylon’ out there:
[link 1] [link 2] [link 3]
How did this episode get some higher ratings than ‘Home Again’?!
This is why Chris Carter remains a writer on the show. Because TV critics have no idea what is going on because they don’t do their homework and watch the original show. Also, how can you love something so racist?
Why is it racist?!? Because it dealt with Islamic terrorism?! Newsflash...there are Islamic terrorists in the world. They do horrible things. They hurt people and hate Americans. This isn't gratuitous portrayal of the "other" in a bad light. This is, unfortunately, a portrayal of reality.
Were you up in arms over "Kaddish", or did everyone just accept an episode about bad Jews?...Yeah, that's what I thought...
I don't know why everyone is up in arms about this x-files episode. Sorry, but Islamic terrorism is an actual thing. It exists, it's a real global issue, and so our favorite FBI agents dealt with it in this *one* episode. Don't worry, CC even managed to script in the "not all Muslims are bad" line that seems absolutely required of any discussion of Islamic terror... Can we please save the "Islamophobia" nonsense for a time when it actually applies? Because this is not it. Sorry, not sorry.
I’m probably going to lose ALL six of my followers for saying this, but as much as I’m in heaven watching this x-files reboot...it feels incredibly rushed and the storytelling is really requiring a lot of forgiveness from viewers.
If there’s one thing that makes me happy tonight, it’s that my husband - who doesn’t know much about the show- watched x-files with me, and after the last scene, as I screamed at the TV “WHY COULDN”T YOU JUST MAKE THEM KISS RIGHT THERE?!?!?!”, he said “Well, it seems pretty obvious to me that they’re reconciled. Isn’t it clear?”....and I was like “Ok, well if a total newbie sees it, then maybe it’s clear and it’s true and that’s what they’re implying...”
Actually the only episode that makes my feel they're really close so far is Were Monster. The others, especially My Struggle and Home Again, the feelings and love are there but they're definitely not close anymore.
I don’t know how anyone can watch Home Again and think they aren’t close anymore. But to each their own!
The only thing in Home Again that made me so sad for their relationship, was that Mulder told Scully to go to her mother's bedside alone when she first got the call about the heart attack. It felt like "we're broken up now, so my place is at work, not with you". It made me so sad. But the rest of the episode definitely highlighted that old spark again, so that was better.
i can’t believe mulder drove scully home at the end of the ep and when he started towards her apartment she said “no i want to go home” and anyways he got to be the big spoon i think just for that night [x]- @foxmulders
yeah you can’t convince me this didn’t happen.
yes, this happened.
Which episode are you referring to?
The latest: “Home Again”. (this didn’t actually happen it’s just a nice thought of what would happen post-episode)
Ahhhhh!! Got it!! Love it!

yes, this happened.
Which episode are you referring to?
These are two people who love each other so incredibly much. SO MUCH.
I know, right? I feel that there's this wonderful undertone of an understanding that, while they’re not a couple at this very moment, they will be again some day. There’s this unspoken feeling between them, but especially from Scully, that she just needed a breather, albeit a long one, but that he should know that she’s coming around and that she’ll come back to him soon.

the “Child That We Gave Away”
me:
That was the most human Mulder and Scully have ever been. Nine seasons, two movies + 3 episodes … and this is the most realistic way I’ve ever seen them deal with anything.
the line “I need to work right now” was better than every single line in my struggle
Seriously. She absolutely seemed to be losing her grip on her sanity. Brilliant acting.
My favourite episode of the revival so far.
Awww, I used to believe that about monsters, too...
