I never watched BBC Sherlock or engaged in the fandom and being into original Sherlock Holmes in the year 2024 feels like frolicking in a meadow that’s grown up over a battlefield. Occasionally a war weary veteran with shadows in their eyes will find me. “Don’t you know what happened in this place?” they ask me. “I literally don’t,” I reply, and go back to drawing guys from 1895.

Don't know how many times I've showed a non-Tumblr person a Tumblr post and had the whole thing derail because the poor soul actually read someone's user name.

I’m having. A moment.

#fun anecdote that happened to me like 9 years ago or smth #i was on a one week holiday in London with my mom and everything was so freaking expensive #and we were walking around London and we accidentally come upon the Globe theatre and see a queue #and i tell my mom (all in French of course) 'oh i think that's Shakespeare's theatre! it must be so cool to visit' #and my mom says 'probably but it's probably going to be 26 pounds a piece to visit' #(in reference to the HORRENDOUSLY overpriced Westminster Abbey we tried to visit that morning. #in france you can visit all churches for free so this was particularly outrageous to us. anyway) #and suddenly a woman in the queue turns to us. turns out she was French but she lived in London and she tells us: #'its Shakespeare's birthday today. the Globe is free!' #turns out it was more than free there were games for kids and stuff and it was so much fun!! #anyway that's how i learned William Shakespeare was born two days after my birthday (and 420 years in the past but that's whatever)

yall do realize just because something has been a target of misogynistic criticism, that doesn't make stanning it completely uncritically in response some kind of revolutionary feminist praxis. right.

Sometimes you Google something for a detail in a fic and it leads you down a rabbit hole you really didn't expect.

#americans are you okay #why is it when i google appalachian trails this is one of the first results?

‘A good tragedy is always both preventable and inevitable’ is one of my main hills to die on. It’s literally so important to me. I’m fucking correct

#this is why i always say the tv show DARK is a greek tragedy set in modern times #it is a true tragedy #it's inevitable because the characters are who they are #dark netflix

If you're lamenting the fact that you used to be able to shoot through a 500-page novel in like a day when you were in middle school and now you can't, it's worth bearing in mind that a big part of that is because when you were in middle school, your reading comprehension sucked. Yes, mental health and the stresses of adult life can definitely be factors, but it's also the case that reading is typically more effortful as an adult because you've learned to Ponder The Implications. The material isn't just skimming over the surface of your brain anymore, and some of the spoons you used to spend on maximising your daily page count are now spent on actually thinking about what you're reading!
