Welcome to scrolling hell

And people really do try to interact with fandom like consumers! They want « content ». They act like they can get a refund on reading a fic they don’t like. They add fanfics to goddamned goodreads without a second thought without realizing that’s as ridiculous as adding your friend’s dining room as a restaurant on yelp just so you can post a review about it

Treating fandom like retail never does good things.

We should popularize more hispanized phonetic spellings of classic character names like we did with esnupi

The sheer roundness of this kitten must be admired.

The bugs one bcs I'm immune compromised and bugs carry diseases 👍

I am a bug and heat lover but I would KILL for the ability to see outside with my bare eyes they are so sensitive and the sun is so bright and I lose sunglasses like it's my life's work

hate when people think the only archetype possible for a male sidekick to a female protagonist is a soft boi and/or himbo. like the implication there is that the only reason a man would ever defer to a woman’s authority is if he was a bumbling idiot. love male supporting characters who are smart and strong and confident and can step up when necessary but still kind and humble enough to let someone else take the lead most of the time

I was talking about Sherlock Holmes with my cool weird 42 year old coworker the other day and he said that he had read other works by ACD but not any Sherlock Holmes. ACD is smiling down from heaven on his one and only true fan.

have you guys heard about the greenland shark. some crazy shit happening there.

in a way john watson is a fantasy (what if you had this brilliant enigmatic friend and what if he liked you in particular and what if he offered you the excitement of youth and adventures and a way out of boring society life and all without having to actually give up your status as a gentleman so you could have the best of both worlds) and in a way sherlock holmes is a fantasy (what if someone never got tired of you despite your various strange habits and mood swings and instead of simply tolerating you they genuinely liked you and what if you didn’t have to live alone forever and what if you never had to give up doing the things you love) and of course there’s the most fantastical part of it all (what if you could afford london housing prices)

Well, famously they can't actually afford London housing, that's the whole reason they met.

damn it's only wednesday?? ??? i need to get fucked within an inch of my life
