the great love of my life is a homicidal maniac. no one's perfect.

hot take: “Whatever Remains, However Improbable” is a famous Holmesian line that ends with “must be the truth”

which I think is a callback to “The truth is I don’t need you” in the pilot

which is another way of reflecting on Sherlock’s “I was dying when I met you” line and that’s how you do poetic cinema

okay but sherlock putting clyde, dressed as a shark, in watson’s bed because he thought clyde, dressed as a shark, would be a delightful thing to wake up to is not just the best friendly thing sherlock has ever done, it’s the best friendly thing anyone has ever done

People need to get used to the idea of getting older and even romanticize it there’s so much you gain by aging and learning every day there’s beauty in someone whose years show on their face. I’m sick and tired of people turning 25 and being like omg I’m so old I’m having an identity crisis. get a grip. Bitch.

I could function in a society that had an actual nightlife that isn't synonymous with just clubbing. Where are the night markets what if I want to go to the library at midnight

How many order tickets have you written me at The Claw? I know your handwriting. That bottle shattered at the Vigil, just like the barometer shattered in my apartment. Both times I felt something, and I know you felt it, too. And both times we were close enough to…

I was trying to get away from you, because, um, you were irritating me. And, uh, you chased me down, and you caught up to me. I said to you, “Listen, I just have to get all my ducks in a row, right?” And then you said to me… “I can be a duck.”

Production houses: but if the writers stay on strike we can't guarantee the future safety of your favorite shows 🥺🥺😭😭

Viewers who 1, have already lost their favorite shows because they were cancelled in spite of good ratings and good reviews or 2, have stopped watching new content entirely until the entire series has aired and concluded as a result of so many good shows getting cancelled on cliffhangers and thus leaving said viewers unable to gain closure with those characters and with a hollow viewing experience, so they've begun a, watching older shows they know came to a planned conclusion or b, revisiting their old favorites and enjoying the nostalgia or c, reading new books or fanfic instead: YOU ALREADY CAN'T GUARANTEE THE FUTURE OF OUR SHOWS SO GET FUCKING WRECKED AND PAY WRITERS WHAT THEY DESERVE!

Part of what the WGA is asking for is residuals prior to season 3. Netflix especially keeps canceling shows before they hit season 3 because they want to avoid paying residuals.

The WGA strike, if successful, will guarantee the future of shows. It will fix the problem. Production houses, if left to their own devices, won’t.
