Just to ramble on about it some more, part of the reason it is so funny to me is that "on the spectrum" is an attempt to AVOID a label that is more often than not used as a label -- so the murkiness of defining what is neurotypical has some pleasing overlap with the murkiness of describing what exactly we enjoy or why we care about our Subjects and their deal

Hahaha I think you are free to read or not read whatEVER you want... I've been in fandom a longish time but wasn't there when the bad stuff happened. I would read those old interviews and feel uncomfortable, but it never really affected my enjoyment of the show (in fact, I think it enhanced my sense of the independent reality of the story and the characters). NOW, that stuff enriches my appreciation for where they are. But if you stick around long enough you'll come across it no matter what. ;)

I like that it enhanced your sense of Mulder and Scully as a separate reality–that’s a great way to look at it. And it definitely does make things sweeter now. I’m sticking around FOREVER, so I’d better prepare myself :)

WHYYYYY IS HE DOING THIS

I DON'T KNOW. YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE THE EXPERT HERE! Help? Also- he can post that but heaven forbid we get a #tbt of The Lick. Come on, David.

Remember around 1998 or so when David Duchovny seemed to hate Gillian Anderson? I specifically remember a Details article where he was harshing on her quite bad.

Oh anon…. DO I?! Yes. And I’m pretty sure I’m still traumatized. The Details Magazine in particular is a brutal interview. I just re-read it and had to make a post about it because I was horrified all over again. Here are some other fun little bits from that interview:

Bowman films Duchovny, alone, crawling through the tunnel. “What was wrong with that take?” Duchovny asks. “I could make the camera work better,” Bowman answers. “Please do so,” Duchovny says. After a few more takes, Bowman decides to change camera speed, from twenty-four to about sixty frames a second. “Whatever you need to do, do it,” Duchovny tells him sharply. More takes. More delays. “Who designed this fucking set?” Duchovny asks. “You know, it’s not supposed to be this hard, it’s just supposed to look hard.” Bowman calls for yet another take, and Duchovny rises from the chair to go back into the pipe. “I haven’t spent so much time on my hands and knees since I got this job,’ he says over his shoulder.

Q: What is the X-Files movie about?

ANDERSON: (after a very long, thoughtful pause) Trust.

DUCHOVNY: (when told of Anderson’s answer) You know, because people want to see a movie about trust. Huh. Talk about high-concept. “I want fifty million bucks to make this movie. Okay, here’s the pitch: Trust.” (laughs)

I know I have some followers who aren’t hardcore “X-Files” fans, so I’m going to encourage any of you who want the behind the scenes info on David and Gillian’s rocky relationship to visit this tag on fuckyeahdavidgillian.(I don’t usually make posts about this stuff because she's got it all covered. And also, it fills me with rage and despair.)

GUYS

Even Gillian's website knows not to mess with 1998. Just give it some space.

fuckyeahdavidgillian: this hot?

ARE THEY WEARING THE SAME SHIRT? 

Could be exceedingly worse. I hate his shoes. His arm is pretty. What the fuck is in his back pocket? Why are they wearing the same shirt?
