Sad that gbx doesn't come around anymore, always thought he was insightful.

The Pinefox is missed. I hope he reappears, but not in an outdated photo on a milk carton.
Pinefox is always around, he pops in every few weeks in his own inimitable fashion.

Ally

I talked to Ally for a split second at the Morbius memorial but I don't really know her, that was the only time I ever met her. Sund4r I have been in regular contact with, I owe him an email.

Saying it again, for classical peeps seconding Sund4r and also voting Pomenitul again

ya i don’t know ally, but i miss that so-long-ago voice too. there are quite a few of those voices, and it makes me think “i should quit.” but that’s quitter talk. i’m more of a “get fired” type.

cypress hill!! so good to see you here tonight - i don't think i've mentioned outside the queer thread that i am formerly surm - Swen is a character from one of my favorite episodes of the golden girls and i guess i like S's. mayb some knew this already but i figured it's worth a mention.
what a hundred years! i feel i have so much to say but first i'll say that i've loved following your art on IG <3, z.
― Swen, Saturday, 9 March 2024 07:31 (two months ago) link
wait i really did mean to put on Cypress Hill but then i put on the first album by Veruca Salt instead out of bodily necessity
hope folks are enjoying a gorge weekend so far, it feels like a good March weekend somehow

I wasn't sure at first but I knew the voice was so familiar and then I saw you mention your family's background in a thread somewhere and I thought it had to be you but I still wasn't sure. Hi!!!
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Saturday, 9 March 2024 11:57 (two months ago) link
Having seen every episode of the GGs multiple times I am now trying to remember which episode. I feel like Swen was the tall strapping guy who showed up from at Olaf. Did he think he was supposed marry rose? Trying to remember without googling.
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Saturday, 9 March 2024 11:59 (two months ago) link
Swen was (I think) Rose’s cousin who was visiting her or something
― Marten Broadcloak, mild-mannered GOP congressman (Raymond Cummings), Saturday, 9 March 2024 12:03 (two months ago) link
And he ended up comforting Blanche when she was being treated like garbage by some suitor
― Marten Broadcloak, mild-mannered GOP congressman (Raymond Cummings), Saturday, 9 March 2024 12:04 (two months ago) link
The joke was in the acting and the writing, because Swen was initially a very literal minded simpleton but the slyly slightly more complex
In my memory the actor looked like Jaws from the Bond movies but I’m sure that’s not quite right
― Marten Broadcloak, mild-mannered GOP congressman (Raymond Cummings), Saturday, 9 March 2024 12:05 (two months ago) link
re: thread revive, calstars she transitioned and that's her deadname. she's not stealth but i'm not gonna link her new account to her deadname in public. i'm sure you weren't intentionally deadnaming her, just for anybody who didn't know, it is a deadname, idk how she personally feels about it but in general it's a good idea to avoid using deadnames unless the person in question says otherwise :)
― Kate (rushomancy), Saturday, 9 March 2024 12:10 (two months ago) link
HIIIIIIIII E !! it really is amazing to be back. and i have so many thoughts! to come! :)
Sven was indeed Rose's cousin - but Blanche INSISTED on calling him Swen lol. "I can call him whatever I want, he's mine now" - Blanche
<3 <3 <3
― Swen, Saturday, 9 March 2024 12:16 (two months ago) link
The way the actor says “useless” is legit one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen on TV

Anyway! This has been Ray’s Golden Girls corner - as you were!
yesssss ugh i am grateful to be welcomed back into it. i've been listening to a lot of the Glenn Miller Orchestra, inspired by the girls!
― Swen, Saturday, 9 March 2024 12:24 (two months ago) link
Yes, that it. And he thought he was in love with Blanche. I'm picturing a tall blonde guy on a camel jacket maybe.
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Saturday, 9 March 2024 12:54 (two months ago) link
Ok not camel but I was picturing the right guy.
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Saturday, 9 March 2024 12:55 (two months ago) link
YUP you knew right away. he did a great job with that part! loved how much he loved Blanche. they were cute together.

look i know i might be “breaking the rules” or whatever but instead of chiding calstars and keeping him in the dark perhaps it’s just best to say:calstars, the user that you mention goes by the name “ivy” at the present.
