The Spelling Bee *really* loves labia.
Gayer than the average bear. Always looking for innundo. Luckily, the papers are full of it. #TCMParty #IfIHadADime

The Spelling Bee *really* loves labia.
New film festival idea: classic films in which women work and nobody suggests they’d be better off married and unemployed.
Will likely miss #HisGirlFriday tonight as I’m having dinner with actual people for a change, but I do love that movie. #TCMParty
I haven't even seen this show (yet) but I feel like if I could I would see every iteration of it.
Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy.
If I ended up adopting this cat from this bodega I would absolutely name it Dill Pickle.
Good morning, y’all! I hope you chose your outfits wisely today.
I should think they’d be sold by the pound.
Drop an old person you're going to turn into in the future.
I mean, I do love you, but we are talking about hundreds of thousands of dollars in computer equipment and years of research. #TCMParty #DeskSet
Ctrl-Alt-Del, Miss Warriner! #DeskSet #TCMParty
I’ve never been able to get very far into King Solomon’s Mines, let alone finish it. #DeskSet #TCMParty
“Let’s use these refrigerator boxes for the books! That way there won’t be so many boxes!” #DeskSet #TCMParty
Not Nina Foch! Who I always confuse with Neva Patterson, who’s in #DeskSet. #TCMParty
Actually, it was two drinks—a sherry and a martini—but I wonder how it would taste.
The pink slips will also vary in color. I wonder why pink props were apparently hard to film consistently. #DeskSet #TCMParty
Actually, when two professionals get married, they do think about jobs and houses. #DeskSet #TCMParty
A scotch martini, aka a smoky martini, is a martini that uses scotch instead of vermouth. I wonder if I would like it. 🤔 #DeskSet #TCMParty
Actually, no, I will not write it down and file it away somewhere because it is exactly your job to be the repository for this information. #DeskSet #TCMParty
*Smithers goddammit #DeskSet #TCMParty
Smithers is all . . . #DeskSet #TCMParty
Those flowers get pinker with each passing scene. #DeskSet #TCMParty
First time I really noticed Sumner’s expression when he says he doesn’t want to worry Bunny about the request for her “puhsonnel” file: he very clearly does mean to worry her. #DeskSet #TCMParty
Despite being an Oscar winner, his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame is for TV. #DeskSet #TCMParty
Strangulation, or asphyxiation? #DeskSet #TCMParty
“Yes, I know,” is one of my favorite lines in any movie. #DeskSet #TCMParty
Moore was mostly uncredited during her 33-year film career. #DeskSet was her second-to-last film. She had also been working in TV later in her career, and had some parts after the end of her film career. #TCMParty
The Federal Broadcasting Company company logo lady, before she “changed her hair.” (Ida Moore) #DeskSet #TCMParty
In the end, Hepburn gets “a new coat” instead. #DeskSet #TCMParty
I think we have a new #TCMParty rating scale for classic films: the Wyman scale, for how unflattering a short mid-century hairdo is. #DeskSet
She has a job that she loves and she’s good at and no one suggests she should give it up for a man. Even Cutler, who we’re meant to understand is the lesser choice, imagines that she’ll still work after they get married. #DeskSet #TCMParty
*Woman goddammit
Mid-century hairdo isn’t doing her any favors, but apart from that, was she ever not hot? #DeskSet #TCMParty
(That’s probably also true of Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner, but I find it a little earnest and schmaltzy, so I like it less. #TCMParty)
I rank #DeskSet well above the other Tracy/Hepburn movies I’ve seen because it’s set in Hepburn’s world and, for the most part, she doesn’t get cut down to size in it to assuage Tracy’s crisis of masculinity. #TCMParty
E.g.,
The more I see Wiman of the Year, the more it fascinates me and the less I like it, if that makes sense.
I think it’s fascinating how Hepburn has to be cut down to size in #WomanOfTheYear, but Tracy’s masculinity crisis entails excess violence that has to be inflicted on queer-coded male characters because there only so far he can go with Hepburn (or she can’t be humiliated enough). #TCMParty
😄
I have spent several minutes just staring at this set of skytweets.
Not to take anything away from Shirley Booth's performance, but think what Irene Dunne could do with a line like "Eat, Santa!"
I've been imagining a Rankin/Bass Christmas show like The Year Without a Santa Claus, but with Cary Grant and Irene Dunne. #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
Somewhere, the ghost of Edith Wilson raises her glass.
BRB slapping some old-timey clip art together and applying for national landmark status
Labor Day Eve is a fireworks occasion? Since when? Or did The Thing happen?
#MyFavoriteWife is a Christmas movie! #TCMParty
I’d shack up with both of them. #DesignForMyFavoriteWife #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty

I *love* the little ghost of Randolph Scott on the trapeze. #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
Do you think you could skip lunch today if I made it worth your while? #IfIHadADime #TCMParty #MyFavoriteWife
Cary Grant liked ‘em athletic. Can’t fault his taste. #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
#MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
I mean, I think a prosecutor would have a hard time making a case stick on these facts.

Bianca walked so that Baroness could run. #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
He certainly couldn’t have driven to Carmel in that time. #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
Try getting this level of service in a hotel these days! Even if you’re a rewards member the manager won’t chase your spouse down and lecture him about propriety. #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
This is exactly where the Code gets balled up: the whole point of the comedy is the thrill of the suggestion of bigamy. #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
Why don’t you shave yourself? I’d love to watch you. #IfIHadADime #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
You’ve gone down in a shipwreck, but you’re not dead. How long should your spouse wait before having you declared dead and marrying Gail Patrick? A) Six months B) A year C) Five years D) Never #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
My Awful Wife Theodora Goes Wild #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
To quote Pitch Meeting, because the movie needs to happen! #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
Nobody ever offers me booze when I’ve had a shock. #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
I think my top three Irene Dunne movies, in order, are Theodora Goes Wild, The Awful Truth, and #MyFavoriteWife. But Irene Dunne can mostly do no wrong. #TCMParty
(sotto voce) “Not now, Bianca.” #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
I love this judge. #MyFavoriteWife #TCMParty
I'm headed that way! #MyFavoriteWife #SUTS #TCMParty
*build goddammit
BRB buying every property in my neighborhood so I can tear it down and built Gayer Than Thouville at cat scale.
Not the modern retelling of Aida that I would have thought I’d like to see, but I think I’d watch it.
That is a gorgeous picture.
🤔
Perhaps the current president has been using the blood of virgins to stay alive, and that's why we haven't seen Rubio.
(Before anyone sets up a wellness check: not really.)
Current mood.
Anyone at Teen Vogue.
November 2024 brought a special kind of person to Bluesky.
Flying cars. We were sold on the future because they told us we’d get flying cars, and now we’re here and this is what we have. The Jetsons lied to us.
Some day!
See the bottom right image, which I very much would like to buy.
OMG
Sometimes the student must look within.
Pain is the best teacher.
There is no bad reason to have pizza.
I want the casserole one.
I'll take what I can get.
Perfect.
Ideally with pictures. I'm a visual learner.
Right? He can split *my* stump. (No, I don't know what that means.)
It's true!
What is it about her eyes? Art lovers over the centuries have tried to solve the mystery of her ambiguous expression.
Which is exactly what I had for dinner!
