Very excited about it! :) Sorry for the huge black boxes on that second one. Got some photos there and I'm not trying to do a face/friends/family reveal lol

So, yeah! I now have autographs from Jeannie Tirado, Paula Rhodes, Nicole Tompkins, Jeff Schine, Andi Norris, Nick Apostolides, Sasha Zotova, Joe Whyte, Helena Mankowska, Michelle Lukes, Eva La Dare, Aaron LaPlante, Neil Newbon, Maggie Robertson, Bekka Prewitt, and Katie O'Hagan. I just they're neat people and I loved their performances <3

Loved the Apprentice! Wish they would show more of Peter Fraser and Roy Cohn’s relationship — I know that’s not the focus but it would have created an interesting contrast between Peter’s loyalty and Trump’s treachery. What are your thoughts on Peter?

I'm so glad you asked that! I felt the same, I was glad to see him for those 10 seconds he was in - for the little he was in there, it was a very good and accurate portrayal. If we got to see more of Peter in the movie, I think he would easily become the most sympathetic character for the audience. I also agree that it would be great to have the juxtaposition of Trump and Peter Fraser - maybe one day if someone makes another movie focused more on Cohn, or a miniseries.

Last year after the casting for the movie was announced, I started reading articles about Cohn (who I was generally aware of for years due first to the Citizen Cohn TV movie I watched long time ago and later Angels in America, and always found an interesting figure, but did not know the details of his life), as soon as I read a couple of articles about his last days, I was really moved by reading how Peter Fraser was taking care of him, including during the time when this was really difficult because of Cohn's mental state at the time. Peter comes off as such a sweet, genuine, caring guy, and there's so much emotional strength one needs to be able for that, and in your 20s also and probably with little to no experience in dealing with sickness and dying people, even when the person is not your lover.

Their relationship is really that "innocent boy falls in love with the devil" trope in real life. Now did Roy Cohn of all people deserve that kind of devotion and care? Probably not, but that doesn't really matter when it comes to love, does it - and there's something moving about the fact he got it at the end of his life from someone all of Cohn's high society friends and even his associates at the law firm looked down on as a nobody, someone from the aspect of his life that was seen as shameful, while all those powerful high society friends tried to stay away because he had AIDS. There's a quote from Barbara Walters, one of his closest friends, who said something like, it's interesting how he had such a huge circle of friends and powerful people and then he was alone at the end... well no, he wasn't alone, but I guess Walters and most of the other "friends" did not really think of someone like Peter as a person who matters. I got kind of angry with the way they talked about him in the documentaries about Cohn with either pity or barely veiled contempt, without even bothering to interview him.

Although he's sunk back into obscurity as far as people who write about US politics are concerned, turns out Peter Fraser started working in the Auckland zoo a couple of decades ago and became a Conservation Manager - as you can see in these articles from 2015 and 2017. So it seems he moved on in a healthy way, has lived a life unaffected of any of the Roy Cohn-related political BS and toxicity , and aged beautifully and has been contributing to the world in a good way. The complete opposite of someone else I can think of...

(under the cut: a lengthy compare and contrast of Peter Fraser and Donald J. Trump)

One day maybe there will be another movie or mini series where we do see this juxtaposition of Peter Fraser and Donald Trump. The parallels and contrasts between them and their relationships with Roy Cohn kind of fascinate me. Both met Cohn when they were in their 20s and very impressionable and emotionally needy, both were physically the type Cohn was attracted to (similar to who was probably his first real romantic interest, David Schine), but one was a poor boy who came from a New Zealand farm who knew nothing about the US politics and Cohn's reputation, and that Cohn took on as live-in lover (and 'assistant'), and the other was an ambitious rich boy that, a decade earlier, Cohn took on as a client and student. The personal, sexual sphere, and the public, political and business sphere - which he clearly wanted to keep very separate (at least post-Schine). Cohn's cousin mentioned how he noticed a the time Peter was constantly around Roy, reading his mind and finishing his sentences, and that he was starting to even talk like Cohn, using words like "schlepped". Trump is a much more extreme version of that with how much he's emulated Cohn - which has only gotten worse with years.

And both Trump and Peter Fraser had to stand back with the rest of the public at Cohn's memorial service in the City Hall, while Rupert Murdoch and Barbara Walters and other featured guests were giving speeches, because neither was on the featured guests list - Trump because Cohn and his associates despised the way he had treated Cohn during his illness, and Peter, well - you know why. Imagine how good a scene that would be if filmed one day.

Peter was quoted saying: ‘people would ask me how could I be associated with somebody who did all these awful things… Few people loved me and I certainly loved him. And that’s what’s important" and stress how Cohn "protected" him and was "wonderful" to him, for instance buying llamas and dogs for his farm after Peter told him he was missing the farm animals from back home. On the other hand, some of the quotes by Trump about Cohn are: “All I can tell you is he’s been vicious to others in his protection of me” and "Roy was brutal, but if h e liked you, he was a very loyal guy. He brutalized for you. " And Louise Sunschine, a woman who worked for and knew Trump during those years (1973-1986), told a journalist that Trump loved Cohn, and when asked why, she said it was because "he was ruthless". It fascinates me how both of these men emphasized how Cohn protected them and was great to them and to his friends in general, but Peter tries to stress how Cohn could be tender and nice to his friends in spite of his brutal reputation, while Trump seemed to be drawn exactly to that ruthlessness and get a kick out of the idea of someone doing vicious and brutal things for him.

Trump loves the idea of loyalty, and loves to talk about it - something he heard from Cohn - but he seems to be unable to put it into practice himself, because he doesn't know how to treat other people as real people with needs of their own, rather than something he gets fascinated by or something he needs and/or wants. As his niece pointed out, he is like a big baby in how he views the world. And what's particularly weird but so telling about Trump's personality is that he treated Cohn so shi1ttily when he was sick and dying - but he also has remained obsessed with him decades after his death. We know that he couldn't stop bringing him up to multiple people privately ahead of the 2016 elections and on the election night itself, he infamously yelled "where is my Roy Cohn?" in 2018 when he was ranting about needing lawyers to protect him, many people have noted how he only has been emulating him more and more as he's getting older and since he got into politics, and heck, some people even think that a physical resemblance to Cohn is one of the main reasons why Stephen Miller (who's also noted to have started dressing more and more like Cohn), the architect of Trump's most racist and awful policies, has such an influence on Trump and staying power in his administration. It's so obvious that there were serious articles and YouTube podcasts a few years ago titled things like "Does Roy Cohn rule the Oval Office from the Grave?".

it's fascinating how those two people could have a close emotional relationship with the same person and end up acting and affected by him in a completely opposite ways. It's like love in its unhealthy, unselfish form, vs maximum toxicity in every possible way.

3, 4. 10, 14 and 20 for the FT asks? :D

3. What is you favourite episode and why?

Gotta be episode 4 the christmas episode. They were just so romantic and domestic and sweet! With the kisses and teasing and gifts and other things lol. Also I found it really funny and ironic when they were dealing with the Schine in the military drama lmao what a diva

4. What is your favourite scene(s) and why?

I already said some here but of course there are more. I really enjoyed the scenes at Fire Island when Tim was drinking and dancing with Hawk. It was nice to see them just letting loose and having fun, and interesting how Tim was indulging Hawk to try to take care of him. Fun vacation bfs 🥰

10. If the show had one more episode, what would it be about?

Between 6 and 7. A whole episode showing more of Tim, Frankie and Marcus in San Francisco. Also when Hawk started contacting Tim again. I would've loved to have heard some of those late night calls...

14. Do you have any unpopular opinions about Fellow Travelers?

I feel like a had an unpopular attitude about the show because I really cherished the happy scenes and love story side of it. It seemed like most people were constantly talking about how sad they were and how it always made them cry... Yes their story is very tragic, but that's made clear from the first episode, and its also about true, enduring love, which I thought was so beautiful and so thoughfully told!

20. If Fellow Travelers had a spin-off or continuation, what would you like it to be about?

Frankie, Storme and Marcus. Frankie and Storme on tour. More Frankie and Marcus romance. They are all beautiful, interesting characters and I would totally watch a whole show of them!

fellow travelers ask game 💕

*i forgot to do my reviews for ep 3 and 4 of ft during both weeks smh.

episode 3 : very sweet vacation at the see also i was not aware of the joseph mccarthy and roy cohn gay allegations (not together). chokbar de bz like we say in french.

[insert here abby lee miller looking around her gif].*

diversity wins i guess, the anticommunist prosecutor who ruined so many lives is jewish AND gay. like tbh i didn't know at all because it wasn't written on his wikipedia french bio (but him bringing his mom to parties was though). like i thought the jokes about him and schine were just because theses environnement are full of men. i love the lightning on this show but it really stroke me during the scene where marcus walks in the alley at night. the costumes are so beautiful, i love the cuts of their suits.

*episode 4 : loved the christmas episode too. i knew mary's colleague was plotting something since episode one's ending. but also i'm scared for 80s timeline tim :(*

i love the actor of roy cohn also. like he's serving. serving conservative homophobic self-hating jewish but serving nonetheless (i'm not a irl roy cohn stan btw, will brill just absolutely serves as him). it was so sweet seeing tim and hawk being happy though (especially as i write those lines specifically right before the diffusion of the last episode). also small detail but it was interesting to see how even when the jewish person (here cohn) is on their side and does everything "right" to be accepted, people will still be antisemitic towards him (mccarthy and his wife).

episode 5 :

the scene of marcus and frankie on the bench ☹️☹️☹️ "i should have let him paint them red." killed me. i was so shocked by the death of senator smith though ??!! the scene where he looks at pictures with lucy was so sad in retrospect. also it's very funny seeing tim lurking around the mccarthy/cohn/schine trio. he's just a little guy. also lucy smith leave your husband and runaway with me !! i can make you happy queen ! she's so gorgeous and dresses so well i love her so much, and even more since this episode. i felt so sorry for her brother and how he gets no real help from anyone. and the last scene ☹️.

episode 6 :

lucy's outfits and hair are so gorgeous !! i really love what we saw her wearing in this episode's 1950s timeline, especially her baby blue and yellow dresses.

hawk being a daughter's father oh he's so real, kendall roy feminist icon coded to me.

the shot of tim in the police car with the back window showing hawk on the road is SICK. like i felt a pain in the heart. and i loved the last shot of hawk hugging jackson.

i kinda wish there was an episode in between 5 and 6 but at the same time it makes sense. we just didn't get used to hawk's children and had jackson for only one episode.

episode 7

an episode for the tim laughlin lesbian fans for real !! it broke my heart for the romance part but i could learn some things about harvey milk ! i'm not american so i didn't know he was murdered (or didn't remember it) but i read on wikipedia that he was jewish too ! i really love the costumes of the 70s, they're all so beautiful and fitting for the characters :'). i love all the small details in the sets and decorations, each of the era have a unique vibe ! i'm absolutely terrified for tomorrow's episode, i'm not ready to see them go at all !!

I gotta say I love that RE gets new fans with the remakes, but with some of these newer RE fans have also brought in the concept of “stans”, which I am now completely categorizing in a different group from fans. I am a huge Ada fan, but these Ada stans on Twitter are making it hard to enjoy Resident Evil content on there.

In Stan world if I want say I don’t like Ada’s new voice, or prefer OGRE4 Ada over the remake, or don’t love her new outfit then apparently “I have no right to call myself a fan” if I vocalized these opinions. I am Asian American myself and I did not enjoy Lily Gao’s performance as Ada. In my opinion, she had a few passable lines, flat and awkward delivery majority of the time, no chemistry with Leon, and most importantly NO charisma. Doesn’t matter how much much time Ada had in any form of RE media, she has always had presence and impact. In RE4’s main game, Ada didn’t have that many scenes either (although technically more than the remake), but even to people who didn’t bother to play Separate Ways, she always left an impression.

When the first RE4R trailer of her speaking dropped A LOT of people didn’t like her voice acting from the beginning. Then Ada stans would say “you can’t judge based on one line, wait until the game comes out” (as if that would somehow make her delivery better?), then the game comes out and a lot of people still didn’t like her performance, now it’s “she barely had any screen time, wait for Separate Ways”, moving the goal post again. Or it’s “she’s suppose to sound flat because she’s now a serious mercenary” Like was Ada not already cold and serious in RE2R?? I don’t remember her “sounding flirty” in that game at all, that was literally one of the reason people didn’t like RE2R’s Ada, for not being as nice as she was in OG2. Now there’s this belief that most people only didn’t like it because of some RE influencer and blamed her to take accountability for the harassment and bullying Lily Gao got, then the next day the Ada Stans go on to harass, bully, and passive aggressively hate on accounts that ship Cleon to the point they end up closing their account. I super ship Aeon too but jeeze. It’s just so hard to take seriously, but I guess that’s the current state of fandom culture now: “can’t take the toxic behavior of me defending my fave, then gtfo”.

Lily Gao 100% did not deserve to be harassed, I put all blame on Capcom. If they wanted to cast a new Asian VA for Ada they should have put in more effort to finding THE BEST fit person for the job, not the most convenient. I wish there was more noise on Patricia Ja Lee being Jill Valentine’s previous VA and mocap, because there’s a VA who did a great job, maybe they should have just gotten her to be Ada, but doubt Capcom considered any Union VA. Capcom in general after the VA Union strike have been cheap, and Capcom USA especially have been lazy. They have no respect for VAs, you expect me to believe they didn’t cast Lily Gao for convenience sake after not even bothering to bring back David Vaughn for RE8’s Chris Redfield and reused Jeff Schine instead?

Look, you can like Ada’s new voice, but to not understand why others genuinely don’t like it makes no sense to me.

Capcom nerfed Ada so hard in this remake but every Ada stan can make so many justifications for Capcoms shit decisions, writing for her, and having one of the weakest VA performances despite being a main character and one of the most iconic female characters in video games? The only time “Ada Nation” can band together for anything is when Ada is left out of stuff so long as she girl-bosses and serves cunt right? Who cares she has less screen time, who cares there was no Assignment Ada and she’s not in Mercenaries at Launch even though all that was included in the Game Cube release, who cares they gave Luis Ada’s moment of saving Leon from Krauser, who cares she was left out of all the promotion of RE4R, who cares that she keeps telling Leon to leave Ashley for whatever reason when she never interferes with how Leon does his job in the OG. Leon literally throwing real knife stabs that could actually kill her, he hasn’t seen her in 6 years, he has no idea if she could block them or not, but I guess all that is suppose to be visually appealing than him being able to disarm her. Oh Ada can’t black flip kick the gun out of Leon’s hand bc it’s not realistic but Leon can jump around like he’s Cloud Strife in the saddler boss battle? And Ada offered a ride to Leon at the end and not Ashley, I don’t know how Ada stans can see where it implies that Ada offered a ride to both of them? And why do we have to read in between the lines when they could have had her ask if they were both coming in the script? They had no problem putting that badly written scene of exposition with Wesker at the end to show players how much of a “good and reformed” person she is. I wouldn’t give Capcom that much credit. Why does them improving Separate Ways, which should already be expected of a remake, justify cutting/downgrading everything else?

You can say you like her new outfit more than her OG, but then to go and say it’s more practical now, when really it’s still unpractical as hell too. Say you like RE4R Ada but then to say she’s less sexualized than OG4? Lily Gao implying she characterized Ada to be less sexualized, when her Ada basically offers Leon sex if he drops his mission and leaves Ashley. Past Adas has never propositioned anything like that before EVER. Like ok RE4R Ada doesn’t wear a cocktail dress now, but instead now has hella ass shots for days, they made her boobs larger, and gave her character model boob physics, all of which wasn’t in OG4.

Had to get this off my chest, if you made it this far congrats lol. This is just all my opinion, you don’t have to agree with me, I’m sure a lot of you don’t.

I heard Carlos' voice for the first time in Resident Evil 3 Remake and...*sighs* I recognized his voice from ANOTHER zombie game. And when I looked him up I was right.

Jeff Schine who plays Carlos is also the VA for Javi in The Walking Dead: A New Frontier. I love his voice and Javi they can't do this to me. THEY CAN'T!!! AAAAAA–

Esgrima Antigua e Histórica 101: ¿Quién éra Johannes Liechtenauer?

Johannes Liechtenauer (también Lichtnauer, Hans Lichtenawer) fué en el siglo catorce uno de los maestros de esgrima más reconocidos de la época dentro de lo que se conocería como la tradición alemana.

El MaestroLiechtenauer parece haber éstado impartiendo sus enseñanza a mediados y tarde en el siglo catorce. Pero la única nota biográfica que nos sobrevive es encontrada en el manuscrito GNM Hs. 3227a (circa 1400 de nuestra era). Siendo éste manuscrito el texto más antiguo que lee : “El Maestro Lichtenauer aprendió y dominó(el ate de la espada) a cavalidad y adecuadamente, pero no lo iventó el mismo, como se ha hecho ha dicho. Éste viajó atrav’’es de muchas tierras buscándo el verdadero y justo are, pues éste quería aprendérle y estudiárlo”

Su apellido indica que éra conocido como “Liechtenau”( escrito modernamente como Lichtenau). Hay varias localidades con dicho nombre. Basado en detalles descritos por autores relacionados a la tradición alemana colectivamente conocidos como la Sociedad Liechtenauer hay concenso sobre la posibilidad de que se refiriesen a Liechtenau en Nuremberg entre otras cinco posibles localidades del mismo nombre.

El Epítome (Zettel)

Los estudiantes de Lichtenauer preservaron sus enseñánzas en la forma de un poema mnemonico conocido colectivamente como Zettel( literalmente un recuénto breve). Más tarde en el siglo quince versos de éste poema se vuelven conocidos por gran parte de la región. Y ya en el siglo diez y séis son una parte integral de la tradición alemana de esgrima/combate.

La referencia más antigua conocida del Zettel (o zedel) se encuentra en el folio 9v del manuscrito Cod. 44 A 8 del 1452.:

“ Alhÿe hebt sich an dye zedel der Ritterlichen kunst des fechtens dye do geticht vnd gemacht hat Johans Liechtenawer der ain hocher maister In den künsten gewesen ist dem got genadig seÿ "Here begin the zedel of the knightly art of fencing, which were composed and made by Johannes Liechtenauer, who was a high master in the arts, and on whom God may have mercy."

Aparentemente el propósito del poema éra establecer una lista de mnemónicos que ayudásen al estudiante de la tradición a recordar conceptos que comúnmente se enseñarían en aquellos tiempos en forma oral casi exclusivamente. Desafortunadamente no incluye una explicación detallada, por el contrario los versos del Zettel han sido creados con la intención de ser crípticos. Se refieren a los mismos como las palabras secretas del maestro , por subsiguientes maestros y autores.

Los versos fueron tratados como el tronco de las enseñanzas atribuídas a Johannes Lichtenauer por sus seguidores. siendo el manuscrito Hs. 3227a nuestro ejemplo más temprano de ello seguido por tratados por Peter von Danzing zum Ingstdt, Jud Lew, y sigmund Schining ein Ringeck en el siglo 15. Éstos están organizados en coplas o cuartetas en ocasiones acompañadas por glosas(anotaciones) con explicaciones algo más detalladas sobre el significado del vérso.

El Zettel está organizado de la siguiente manera:

I. Introducción general al Arte del combate

II. Introducción general al combate con espada larga . Arma con la cual se blande a dos manos.

III.Un desgloce de diez y siete tecnicas o secciones también conocidas como las diez y siete máximas de Liechtenauer del combate con espada larga(espada a mano y media)

Comienza el poema con la siguiénte estrofa:

“ Jung Ritter lere / got lip haben / frawen io ere / So wechst dein ere / Uebe ritterschaft und lere / Kunst dy dich czyret / vnd in krigen sere hofiret”

“Young knight, learn to love God and honour noble women, so grows your honour; practice chivalry and learn art which adorns you and will glorify you in battle.”

“ Jóven caballero, aprende a amar a Dios y honrar a las damas, para que así crezcas en honor; practica el arte de la caballería el cual te exalta y brinda gloria en batalla”

Las diez y siete máximas de Liechtenauer (Hauptstücke) son:

*Los Cinco Golpes o cortes maestros o cortes secretos: 1. “Zornhau”, 2. “Krumphau”, 3. “Zwerchhau”, 4. “Schielhau”, 5. “Scheitelhau”

*Las Cinco Guardias (6)(Huten ó Leger), Arado (Pflug), Buey (Ochs), Desde el Techo(Vom Tag) y El tonto (Alber).

*Las técnicas listadas son: 7. Versetzen, 8. Nachreisen, 9. Überlaufen, 10. Absetzen, 11. Durchwechseln, 12. Zucken, 13. Durchlaufen (grappling), 14. Abschneiden, 15. Händedrücken 16.Cuatro Hängen, 17. Veinte y cuatro Winden.

Al Maestro Liechtenauer de le atribuyen ademés similares enseñanzas de otras disciplinas y armas como la lucha, daga y combate montado.

La Sociedad Liechtenauer

La Sociedad Liechtenauer (Geselschaft Liechtenauers)es como comúnmente se le conoce a una lista de diez y siete maestros en la introducción de tres de las copias mas antiguas del manual de esgrima de Paulus Johann Paulus Kal.

No esta claro si alguna vez existió una organización , pero se cree y especula que la lista de estudiantes es un memorial póstumo de los asociados al maestro.

Paulus Kal lists lista a los siguientes maestros como miembros de la excelsa sociedad:

Hanns liechtenawer( Johannes Liechtenauer) , peter wildigans von glacz (Peter Wildigans de Glatz), peter von tanczk (Peter von Danzig ), hanns spindler von cznaÿm (Hans Spindler de Znaim ), lamprecht von prag (Lamprecht de Prague ), hanns seyden faden von erfürt (Hans Seydenfaden de Erfurt ), andre liegniczer (Andre Lignitzer ), iacob liegniczer (Jacob Lignitzer ), sigmund amring( Sigmund Schining ein Ringeck), hartman von nurñberg (Hartman de Nuremberg) , martein hunczfeld ( Martin Hundsfeld), hanns pägnüczer (Hans Pegnitzer), phÿlips perger ( Philips Perger), virgilÿ von kracå (Virgil de Kraków ), dietherich degen vechter von brawnschweig (Dieterich, el peleador de daga de Brunswick ), ott iud, der der her[e]n von o[e]sterreicher ringer gewessen ist.( Ott Jud, quién era un luchador de los señores de Austria )

LOST HIGHWAY (1997)

"Magnificent. Astounding. The greatest use of Industrial-Nü Metal in history. Hadn't seen since Schine in 1997. I would now say that Dave is the greatest living filmmaker. Apologies to Verhoeven, Marty, whomever. This guy is the only guy. Like...ok...directors, even the best ones? Are still sort of...held hostage? By pre-existing methods of storytelling. To wit, my guy Wes, whom I love like he's family, is literally now just filming people read books. And it's great! BUT! THIS FOOL DAVE LYNCH! Is making pure cinema. He's maybe the only person who has tapped into film's potential. AND IT'S BEEN AROUND FOR A HUNDRED YEARS! Trish Arquette: still prefer your sister but you have truly exquisite canine teeth. Like a Dave Cooper illustration. Fiercely erotic." -Tommy Gazelle

[chieftyphoonchaos]

Safin finally says yes to Mathilde's request after all these years.They are finally getting married❤️❤️💕

Love always conquers,even if you have to have patience for it for many years.But" The Schining" will always be with them and their future family❤️❤️💕💕

Bonus :

All my deeds have produced something beautiful then, haven't they James, we are becoming a real family. I was also invited to their wedding party by the way.

Or would you have preferred your daughter to join MI6 and end up murdered by a certain Gabriel in Venice on a bridge????????

All your fault….Rot brother,always picking on me!!!!

🤣😂😜

[arbor-tristis]

Here's some additional moments that I personally will hunt down Ron for for not including, in no real order :

1) This perfect moment made even more perfect:

2) Hawk wanting Tim as purely and honestly as he wants him, right from the start:

3) This incredible moment between Hawk and Marcus when they first visit the cozy corner (I love them your honour 💖)

4) Later that same night at the Cozy corner. I'm conflicted about this moment. But ultimately I think it was removed because it would serve no other purpose other than making Hawk seem like an even bigger asshole than he was. But I wanted more Hawk x Marcus.

5) In the show Hawk shows up with a radio but him showing up with milk would have been INSANE 😭 (and sooooo cute)

6) And last but DEFINITELY not the least, this moment which I truly cannot forgive omitting. I don't even understand why they didn't include it, it's such an incredible moment. Hawk publicly shades Roy and Schine.

The Walking Dead: A New Frontier has an intense story!

Hey guys! I’m here to do a review on the game “The Walking Dead: A New Frontier!” I loved this game for the story! It was such an intense story! I loved that whatever choices you made tailored the ending of the story. The game is about a teenager, Clementine, and a new survivor, Javier, who team up when a new threat worse than the zombies rises up. With the voice cast of Jeff Schine, Melissa…

[travllingbunny]

Do you think Roy Cohn and David Schine were dating?

Short answer: yes.

more under the cut

Technically it may not be proven beyond doubt, but I think it's pretty obvious and everyone knew it. In one of the documentaries they even mention how, when they were touring Europe and staying in hotels, they were seen chasing each other in towels. And there's that old rumour that Schine's chauffeur had offered to testify that he saw them having sex in the back of the limousine. Which sounds insane since it was the 1950s, but fits with the chasing each other in towels bit - and I can imagine it from a couple of 25 year olds drunk on power and feeling untouchable, in addition to probably being in love. (I do think this was probably the first time Cohn had an actual romantic relationship, and that those people in the Where's My Roy Cohn? documentary were right that was the first time he felt romantic feelings for someone. I suspect his earlier relationships were very different from that.)

Maybe that last story was just a rumour, but I don't find it hard to believe it was real and Schine's rich father threw a lot of money to shut it down.

What I find particularly striking that they were still together for quite some time after the Army hearings, trying to push the "we're such good friends, everything else is a malicious rumour" narrative. This photo screams "damage control":

"Hey look at us with our bea.., uh, dates! Look at us, a couple of straight dudes, and how we're such good friends, in a totally heterosexual way!"

Now this is just my speculation, but based on what we do know about these people, it was probably never going to last, even if Cohn was able to get away with being non-publicly but not so secretly gay the way others couldn't (however, he was more discrete about it before his mother died, though she seemed to be good at denying reality), because Cohn was always all about his ambition not just to be the power broker behind the scenes but also at the centre of attention, present in the media and have influence over the establishment, while it seems that Schine, once McCarthyism crashed into the ground, preferred to have a relatively lower profile and a normal life - getting married, having kids, working in film business and retiring pretty early, and not getting involved in politics anymore. Aside from how scandalous the rumours of being involved with another man would've been at the time, he might not have been genuinely all that into politics in the first place, since he got into it through his relationship with Cohn at the time when McCarthyism was government-supported and widely approved of/popular.

It's funny how Cohn would later weaponize prejudices such as stereotypes about gay men and bi erasure whenever he was asked about the 'rumours', saying basically that it was ridiculous that such a tough, aggressive man like him could be gay, or that he had a relationship with David Schine, since Schine went on to marry a Msis Universe and have a bunch of children. Once Cohn died, and it was confirmed that he died of AIDS, it became OK to talk openly about his sexuality, as long as it didn't affect the people who weren't out. One article published right after his death said something like, Cohn clearly had feelings for Schine, but there is no evidence that Schine had returned them/had a relationship with him, which screams 'we don't want to get into trouble, the guy is still alive, rich and married with children'. And of course no one would have wanted to be outed as bisexual in the late 1980s, probably the most biphobic time period ever.

BOOK - The Grammarians by Cathleen Schine

QUICK SYNOPSIS - Laurel and Daphne Wolfe, a pair of red-headed twin sisters, get in an almost lifelong rift over who gets to keep the family dictionary.

IMAGE 1 - Don Wolfe, the twins' uncle as a young adult. He is a couple years older than the twins' father Arthur.

IMAGE 2 - Don is studying to go into psychiatry, still a relatively new field at the time. But the consequence of the eldest son not going into the family accounting business was that the unwanted responsibility fell onto the second son, Arthur. Arthur didn't love mathematics, he loved words. Learning accounting made him miserable. He theorized bitterly that Don needed to study psychiatry to compensate for his short stature.
