the number of people tagging this as BBC Sherlock. as if co-creators Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat have not created and written explicitly gay detectives -- not just gay characters but specifically gay private detectives -- in now no less than 3 other television shows before and after:
Miranda and Min, a PI and her assistant who are married and having a baby together. [Moffat's Jekyll, 2007]
Vastra and Jenny, a lizard-woman private detective working in Victorian England and explicitly said to have inspired the Sherlock Holmes stories. Her assistant is also her wife. [Moffat's Doctor Who, 2011]
Gabriel Book, a gay bookshop owner in 1946 London who helps the police solve crimes. He is lavender married to his childhood best friend, and the overarching plot revolves around his former partner and great love from whom he was separated by the war. [Gatiss's Bookish, 2025]
So no, there will not be a point in time, now or in the future, where you will be able to propose the idea that Moffat and Gatiss, two people who have made whole careers out of writing television shows about gay private detectives, were "just making homophobic jokes bc they thought the idea of a character being gay was funny rather than any attempted implication that a character might be gay", without me drowning your post and calling you an idiot.
#had the pleasure of blocking an anonymous follower for exactly this today#don't bring your complaints to me lol

as a pink lover. The ""universal""" hatred of the color pink by young girls is due to the heavy expectation of femininity forced on them. It is an expression of frustration at gender roles. It is not internalized misogyny. No you will not inevitably start liking pink as an adult and if you do that is not healing your inner divine feminine or whatever we're saying now. Its a color. 😁👍

writing tip: searching "[place of origin]ish names" will get you a lot of stuff and nonsense made up by baby bloggers.
searching "[place] census [year]" will get you lists of real names of real people who lived in that place.

Okay so bad news for everyone on YouTube right now


Starting the 13th, we will have an AI determine if we are children or not and if you are a child, than you are forced to send your ID, send a selfie or a credit card

This has the obvious cons of having your privacy being revoked from you and and in case there is a security breach, major identity thefts.
So what do we do in this scenario?
Well right now I have real idea as this is relativity new to me, but I do have two plans
Plan 1. Bug the shit out of them, send letters and send emails about how much of bad idea this is.
Include why the AI will mess up and target adults who watch cartoons, include privacy issues, censorship issues, anything you can think of that relates to this. I want you guys to bug the hell out of YouTube until they reverse this idea
Plan 2. Blackout.
Since the thing is coming out on the 13th.
The plan will be to completely avoid YouTube at all cost for that day, no watching, no sharing, no uploading, no nothing.
Download videos before things go down, watch Netflix. Whatever you do, don’t touch YouTube.
That’s all I can say right now, I also want you guys to let YouTubers know of this situation cause if it’s important for everyone on the website to talk about this immediately
Spread this stuff around, let people know of YouTube’s upcoming policy and how it’ll hurt everyone
