Me About To Block A New Follower When I Realize They’re An Actual Human.

if you can not hear this conversation in their voices then you are Not a true goldenboys fan because this is 100% a conversation that would have happened in the EARLY dreamSMP days

It's an open notes test and some dense motherfuckers still can't figure out the answers.

Does anyone else feel, like, a weird inhibition against starting new TV shows?  Like, there are shows I want to watch but when I think about sitting down to start it something in me goes “no you can’t just do that.”  What am i waiting for?  I feel like I need to prepare?  Brain:  You have to wait.  Me:  Wait for what???  Brain:  WAIT

Thanks so much for such a detailed reply and don't worry, it's completely normal to forget stuff from time to time!

And yes, it was absolutely meant with kindness sorry if that wasn't clear!

And well, the queerbating thing, I posted a while ago. I'm a bit further in the series, and especially with not getting a resolution it does seem like queerbating.

What I guess I meant (or what is still true of it now) is that your posts helped me enjoy the series. When I first heard of the queerbating, I was upset because it ruined the whole series for me and your blog helped me enjoy this (albeit a bit broken) series again, even with its flaws

🤍

(I sent a similar ask a while ago but it seems you didn't get it sorry if it's twice) Hey so I only recently found your account and first of all, discovering asexuality from watching Sherlock is the funniest identity finding story I've ever heard (I read it on one of your posts), second of all, I love how structured your blog is (you've written SO much and it's surprisingly structured) ANYWAY that was a long introduction, my actual question is: Do you know why season 4 turned out the way it did?

luminescentlama asked: So I found your blog and I have a couple of things to note 1. Your profile picture is so gay (queer) /pos 2. Finding out about your own asexuality through analyzing Sherlock is the funniest realization story I have ever heard 3. I read your one post on why the show isn't queerbating and I feel better now so thank u :)

Hey Lovely!

Sorry, I've been sick and feeling a bit overwhelmed with literally everything, so I apologize for not replying right away; I often put off some asks so I have at least one new piece of content daily! I found your other ask and did miss it, so I do apologize!!

In response to your comments:

The larger version of my icon without the flags is here. The flag version was just for Pride month and I forgot to change to my Christmas icon this year, but I just left it because I like the pride version better.

RE: my sexuality, I am assuming you mean that with kindness (it CAN be perceived as not-nice teasing on initial read). Assuming it was one of these posts that you're referencing, and it's completely true. In the early days of the fandom, one of the little running jokes was that this show helped so many people realize that they were queer, LOL. For me, seeing a lot of myself in Sherlock, I imprinted on him and for some reason it jumpstarted my journey of self-discovery in my mid-thirties.

Thank you very much for the kind words on my blog. I work meticulously to keep it tidy and I LITERALLY have filed every single post for at least the past 5 years, so it makes it easier to find posts and reference back to them. I also have a meticulous tagging system (most of the time) that probably only makes sense to me, hahah. I love when you guys notice those kind of things, and I'm glad that my posts please you.

As for S4, no. We've got some tinhat theories, but these days I'm a bit more cynical about the tinhat theories and look more to Occam's razor theories: I just feel like Mofftiss "got bored" with the series, were mad people figured out their planned endgame (you know, like a good show / series ENCOURAGES in their fanbase), took their ball and went home and now just keep teasing to keep Sherlock the Brand profitable; ANOTHER theory is that around TAB, there was a shakeup at the BBC of the higher ups; Another was actor interference; and another was copy right issues at the time with the remaining stories. Who knows anymore, tbh.

Which then segues into your queerbaiting comment, I feel without a resolution in S5, then it is. But again, could be just me goalpost-shifting. But I do have a LOT of thoughts on S4 post-series, which are still entertaining reads and can be binged here on my Post S4 Meta Masterpost (August 2018). I have more recent posts as well, but will need more specific questions to direct you to them, LOL.

Anyway, again, sorry for the delay in a reply, but I hope that this response was worth the wait, and that you continue to enjoy your time here *HUGS*

when she says she doesn’t send nudes

gonna watch Sherlock 1, 1 now, wish me luck

The way this fandom is looking I'm gonna need it

But my brain demands I watch it and I'm not one to deny not when it's dragging me by the ankles

This came to me as I was lying in bed, not quite awake, and was the thing that made me sit up and open my laptop to write it down

A loved one showed me the movie Blame, a story about humans trying to surivie in an enormous intelligent city that they no longer had control over. Trying to find food while avoiding the being detected and eradicated like vermin. This hostile but indifferent monolith changing around this small community just trying to continue existing. Living on the internet feels like this, but with an even slower level of hostility. We aren't hunted down by killer robots, but instead we are faced with changes that are uncaring and frustrating as inhabitants that live here. A path we once took has suddenly closed or, even more frustrating, now demands grams of gold to open for us. We visit a nearby place where stories are kept and shared, only to find that it and all the people who lived there have been replaced with a big empty hole. New communities sprout up from the collapse of old ones, but we are hesitant to get to know them lest we become invested in relationships that might suddenly vanish; all the while trying not to vanish ourselves. We are living in a crumbling megastructure controlled by indifferent unknowable entities. And while we, the people outside this metaphor, might know the decisions they're making are driven by a desire for profit; it doesn't change how seemly random those decisions seem to us who have to live with them.

Would you please make a moodboard of Sirius and Remus home? Where would they live? How would they decorate?
