I've been reading Exodus lately and I've just gotten to the portions where God gives the first commands to the people via Moses (twice), and then goes on to give detailed instructions about the tabernacle and how it should be built, and I'm just... we think art is unimportant?? we think things only mean as much as their functionality?? we so easily fall into the trap of believing that beauty means nothing, that it's cheap and only worth whatever mindless distraction it brings, that it's barely more than a cheap sensual thrill, that buildings should just be practical and plain and cheap, that everything should be functional but ultimately disposable, that paintings and dresses and mugs and curtains and carpets are just pretty but have no real value, that beauty is fleeting and vain and therefore shouldn't be thought about too much, if even looked for at all... we fall into these traps so easily, and we forget that there are chapters upon chapters of painstakingly detailed plans to build one portable worship tent, and those plans have been handed down through thousands of years of human history, because beauty and art and skill in craft is important
The more I read the books, the more I marvel at Sam's DEEP understanding of Lestat. Not only does he GET him but he has managed to PORTRAY his true essence so very vividly. That takes an insane amount of talent and commitment, and I cannot begin to express how grateful I am for this casting decision of ALL TIME.

Some bonus non-story posts I rlly still like too, both glimpses of older Robin...
chewis are too hot for no reason even if they're being persecuted by the fia or mistreated by their own teams - they are doing it, they are suffering in a kind of hot way. idk
mulder is straight bonkers for just sailing the bermuda triangle looking for a ghost ship.
scully's queen anne counterpart is dancing with an older man, no surprise there lol.
scully running around the fbi unhinged, trying to save mulder's ass, is my favorite thing ever. the people in the hallways and elevators all look like they've seen this many times before.
never thought scully had sexual tension with skinner or spender, but i kinda felt it in this ep! (weird to say)
the continuous takes are just so cool.
"because you're the only one who can save this ship" - yeah she is!
mulder and scully running through the hallways holding hands, my beloved.
scully waited a long time before hitting mulder during that kiss. don't blame her though!
skinner just throwing the flowers on the side table lmao.
"but you believed me" -- love the parallel to folie a deux. i feel like i could write an essay on this - scully is the skeptic, but she believes in mulder in any timeline.
and of course, hearing mulder say "i love you" to scully still makes me so happy.
