He’s also hot and therefore, the murders were justified. I don’t make the rules.

Exactly, I feel like Armin Shimerman just brought such a metric ton of charisma to that role that it’s hard to really mind too much about any of Quark’s misdeeds 😂

Director of photography for the season finale said “throw some hot girl lighting on Gurathin, he’s earned it” and you know what, they were absolutely right #Murderbot

Thank you, person on Tumblr, for explaining Murderbot so much better than I ever could.

Screenshot of part of a Tumblr post where it reads "yayayya murderbot gorgeous uncomfy robot person yayya" and has 1,001 notes (and I have favorited it myself)

Fanlore wiki never fails to bring me the in-depth reporting that I need.

A screenshot of text on Fanlore with a bullet point saying “As of 2022, the author does not remember the initial inspiration for a Dracula/Barbie fic, though suspects it may have been a shower idea.” There are two footnote links in superscript, indicating that this important historical info has been thoroughly sourced

Oh this one’s so easy for me. 🐖PIG (2021). Nic Cage as a truffle hunter whose beloved foraging pig gets stolen, and he goes on a mission to find her (what a premise, right?!) Beautiful, devastating original film with a quietly unforgettable Cage performance at the center. I love this movie so much.

Movie poster for Pig (2021). Nic Cage’s face is seen in partial darkness. He has a beard and longish graying hair and his expression is serious/brooding

Michael J. Anderson as the Man from the Other Place honestly might be the scariest character in anything ever (for me personally, at least). I feel uncomfortable even pausing on him. 😅 Something about his pure intensity and that wrong/uncanny presence he brings to the part, ugh. What a performance.

The Man from the Other Place. He’s in an all red suit, sitting in an armchair in the Black Lodge looking terrifying.

Out of all the unsettling insert/establishing shots of nature and the city (which creeped the fuck out of me on my first viewing), this might be my favorite. So beautiful, and an image that suggests so much.

Shot of a rusty old bridge in front of a vista of the mountains (the titular twin peaks). The angular shape of the ugly bridge supports echoes the natural triangular shape of the beautiful/natural mountains behind them. Underneath is a brown woodsy area, part of ghostwood forest maybe

This scene. THIS SCENE!!! Jimmy Scott, my god. What an incredible performer. And is there anybody else who knows how to put you on the floor with a musical moment the way Lynch does??

Jimmy Scott performing “Under the Sycamore Tree” in the season two finale of Twin Peaks. He’s in a suit with a microphone standing in front of red curtains.

OK THE LOG LADY INTROS ARE AMAZING. I can’t believe I’ve been watching this whole time without them!

The Log Lady is sitting in her cabin by the boarded up fireplace, facing into the camera, holding her log. The closed captioning reads “Or were there always two?”

Very distracted by Cooper’s tag being out during this makeout with Annie

Twin Peaks screenshot. Medium closeup of Cooper kissing Annie. They’re sitting on the bed in his room at the lodge and he has a white undershirt / tank top on. Since his back is to the camera you can see the tag is out

Got the blu-rays so I can finish my Twin Peaks rewatch without Paramount Plus! I dropped them last month over Paramount eliminating DEI. I want to move away from streaming in general anyway, so thanks Paramount for giving me the extra push by being hot garbage. Physical media baby 💿💿💿

Yesss he’s so good in this (of course)! What did you think of the movie overall / as an adaptation of the book? (Conclave meme provided for tax)

It’s a Lo Fi “graphic design is my passion” type meme of Cardinal Lawrence from Conclave saying “Cardinal Lawrence be like Don’t tell me this. The conclave is sequestered. My brother in Christ, YOU requested the gossip”

Okay, I love Alexander. I think he’s a) adorable, b) so clearly just a little guy trying to do his best in a world that utterly fails to support his needs. I like all his episodes, and I wish Worf’s arc as a father hadn’t been essentially abandoned the way it was.

Daughter and I had the best time today celebrating First Contact Day and meeting fellow trekkies at our coolest local bookstore, @seatbooks.bsky.social where they had a Star Trek book sale, trivia, First Contact playing on the projector, and Trek themed drinks!!! Happy FC day to all who celebrate ✨🖖🏻

Special Agent Dale Cooper posting on r/MakeupAddiction “my lashes are too long and my brows are too resplendent 😭 what can I do to make them less noticeable?” (8.7k upvotes + 765 comments reassuring him he’s gorgeous and whoever said that is jealous and wrong)

The way Major Briggs has this perfect answer to “what do you fear most in the world” ready at hand. He’s already thought about it over the course of his life (because of course this character has) and has no trouble answering. One of the best lines in the series for me. 🤍

What an incredible detail that Ben Horne keeps a single *CUT LENGTHWISE!!* carrot in his jacket so that when he’s really vibing with a fellow member of the boys club, he can whip out the other carrot half and offer it to him

Ben Horne is now sitting cross-legged and sideways on the couch waving the carrot emphatically at John Justice Wheeler, who is watching him patiently

meredith (not from parent trap) @jackalkaboom.bsky.social · 04/04/2025

The carrot is doing so much in this scene 🥕

Ben Horne and Audrey Horne are sitting on the couch together in his office. He is talking to her very seriously while holding a carrot in one hand and gesturing with it. The caption reads “I want to build a life.” Audrey looks like she’s over it but patiently waiting for him to be done talking and get to the point.

I love how Cooper comes in to work already wearing his hard hat for caving, even though they are at the office and haven’t even departed for the caves yet. It’s so very Dale Cooper of him.

This scene though 🥺🥺🥺 “There’s a whole lot I don’t understand” “We’re all like that”

Screenshot from Twin Peaks (actually it’s a photo of my TV but let’s just pretend it’s a screenshot). In the bookhouse, Cooper is very caringly embracing Sheriff Truman, who is distraught and crying on his shoulder after a traumatic event in season 2

This article just alerted me to the (delightful) fact that the earliest known surviving Holmes/Watson fanfic was actually not a zine story but a professionally published erotic novel from 1971! The author, Larry Townsend, was a well-known activist & writer in the LA leather scene from the 1950s on

Audrey meets Denise. Love this moment so much. 🤍🏳️‍⚧️

Scene from Twin Peaks in which Audrey, a 18yo girl, meets DEA agent Denise Bryson, who is a trans woman. She is shaking Denise’s hand with an expression of awe on her face and saying “They have women agents?” Cooper is standing next to Denise looking amused/cheerful as usual (also wearing a very sexy flannel shirt). They are in Cooper’s room at the Great Northern Hotel.

Seems like a good moment to remember the least depressing, most awesome James Bond discourse that’s happened during my time on the internet: the Gillian Anderson for Bond movement of 2016 😍

Omg I have one. FLICKA (2006) is a mess and not very “good” but somehow manages to (accidentally?) strike at some deep, disturbing, heartbreaking foundational truth about fathers and daughters?? It goes so much harder than it has any right to. I love it. The height of horse girl cinema.

Momcore. Loyal. Sucker for strays. Just wants a peaceful cozy life. ISO a hot husband who spends a lot of time away ice fishing and staring into the distance. Husband's emotional affair with a murderer might not be a dealbreaker? Likes animals but draws the line at making dog food from scratch.

Watching a 2005 documentary on the MPAA ratings system (as one does). Jamie Babbit, director of BUT I'M A CHEERLEADER, did her talking head interview for this doc in a t-shirt that says "lesbian breastmilk chauffeur." Chauffeur is spelled wrong. Honestly, I have no choice but to stan.
