its the way Fez took off his nice cable knit sweater before he curbstomped Nate’s ass because he didn’t want to get any blood on it.
we love a king who takes care of his garments!

The face Milhouse made haunted me for years. I don’t know what it is about that grimace that branded itself upon me but… it stuck. It stuck with me for years.
Even now, I feel a certain coldness
because its based on this picture of a French man watching the Nazis march into Paris in 1940

Tbh I think something that really struck me about It's A Sin was the focus on community and solidarity, and the importance of the bonds that formed within the LGBT+ community during the epidemic.
To me, it feels like a show about community, about found family and lifting each other up during times of darkness in any way possible, even if all you can really do is try to reach out to people who are suffering and let them know you're thinking about them- like Colin did by visiting Henry in hospital, or like Jill did with Gloria, Ritchie and all the other men she tried to be there for.
But it also showed how easily these bonds can be dismantled when people outside of the community have the final say in which parts of your life matter in the end, and when you can be plucked away from your friends and loved ones at any moment, and they might never know what happened to you.
The Pink Palace gang never find out that Gloria died (or at least, it's heavily, heavily implied that they never find out) and that's just one example of that happening within the context of the show. The only reason they know what happened to Colin is that Eileen respected that they were a part of his life too, and didn't shut them out at any stage, and it's entirely possible that they wouldn't have found out about Ritchie if Jill hadn't kept persisting and followed him to the Isle of Wight (and even then, she and Roscoe still didn't get a chance to say goodbye, and Ash didn't even get to go at all.)
Tbh, as someone who is just coming to terms with her own LGBT+ identity, seeing this insight into what the community was like back in the day was really enlightening. It really highlights the importance of building a strong community, even if those on the outside don't value it or want to break it down altogether.
