there's an entire ecosystem of male podcasters on gear wearing tight t-shirts and telling people the key to being a masculine is eating liver pills. meanwhile the actual perfect man is just this screengrab of Lee Pace from The Fall

Went out of fashion in the 60s David Bowie looked too good in a surplus police tunic everyone quit until the 90s revival but by then all the good surplus was gone.
May I follow your argument up with Lee Pace in Foundation by Apple TV? (It's a shit version of the book series, but an amazing Lee Pace shirtless-drinking game!)
The fact that this man looks like that on film and the only social media presence he has is either GQ photo shoots and rarely pics of him in a bucket hat and crocs on a tractor at the home he built himself is maddeningly alluring
The MAX service (in US anyway) has it available for streaming. I’m def going to rewatch Pushing Daisies. I remember watching it when it was new and thinking it was such a gift. And not understanding why in the world any TV exec would ever cancel it after two amazing seasons.
I know I pass as straight but anyone with functioning gaydar will catch me swooning when that sweet kind young Lee Pace hits the screen. #stillBi #bisexual #pansexual 🌈
He is one of those guys who makes you sit up any time he comes on screen. I didn’t even recognize him at first in Bodies Bodies Bodies other than to think, “Oh sure 22 year old me would definitely have let this beautiful dirtbag ruin her life.”
Good to know! I have decided I would also like to revisit Dead Like Me. I also want to hunt down the elusive Wonderfalls (another Bryan Fuller venture that didn’t get time to grow.) I feel like I’m going to need some lightness and whimsy going into this year.
I watched half of it after finding an incomplete set of DVDs at a garage sale. It is in the same playful and weird vein as Pushing Daisies and Dead Like Me. It only got one season. Fuller doesn’t seem to have the best luck with series runs outside of his Star Trek work.
Same. It does not get enough (or any) credit. I wonder if it’s because it’s impossible to find. It’s the perfect type of movie that should become a cult classic, but no one knows about it.
This movie has been almost impossible to find for decades & I think it's partially because this image of male hotness terrifies a certain slice of the meathead community
Yeah, by the end it was real bad, though he must’ve already had cancer & whatever else at that point, in addition to all the lost teeth, busted hip, etc etc. Incredible that he made it to 60
We have the same firet name, the same number of letters in our first and last names, and precisely the same average ordinal position of our initials (MES, MDT). Yet we remain, somehow, categorically not the same person.
When celebrity look alikes come up my wife always says I look like current Lee Pace and while I think that’s extremely generous I’m flattered nonetheless

I refer you to find the goat glands episode of Behind the Bastards.
Yup.
He shows up at our door, my wife better hope she answers first...
(A friend has one and boy, that's a whole lot of frogging.)
He just does what comes naturally - because he’s actually a dog.
This isn’t about dogs.
The plot:
He can make my pie any time
also, nice (which ruined it, of course)
1.) We can admire each others appearances.
2.) No one's 100% straight. David Bowie and Freddie Mercury taught my generation that.

Although I probably should have given a content warning to my friend before showing it to her.
