So you know those people who make sad and/or snarky comments about their exes? Like "I don't need them, I'm so much happier now anyway" and "I miss them so much they meant so much to me" type of things

I have to focus so hsrd to not say stuff like that about Sherlock & Co. sometimes 😭😭😭

#Like I. Miss it so so much #And I wanna listen so bad #But it would never be the same I just couldn't #And it's like when u've been in a bad relationship without realizing #And then you get out and you notice all the little things?#I can't help but think abt all the ways this show has been ableist and racist since the start #And I'm like looking at myself after all this #I don't go anxiously thinking I'm misogynistic anymore bc now I'm actually engaging with content that isn't ashamed to put women in the #spotlight OFTEN #And I feel a lot better in general because I don't have any servers to anxiously check in on anymore #I can have a conversation now without having to fear ppl using words like “delulu” or whatever #Like I only hear “delusional” used incorrectly from youtubers rn #Which is so nice. I can be actually delusional in peace #And I'm not around white people who use AAVE like it's a competitive sport anymore 😭#I'm listening to a podcast that actually cares about it's viewers #Like I don't have to mentally prepare for the awful sounds #BECAUSE THERE ARE NONE #Like sorry not sorry but you don't need to give me 1000 headaches to portray that there was an explosion #Joel “I care about my autistic listeners” Emery and his team adding the most obnoxious beeps ever as often as possible #Joel “I care about my listeners” Emery and the lackluster fucking content warnings #You can warn me about the word “bugger” but not about graphic descriptions of animal harm?#Joel “I care about my autistic listeners” Emery telling his character to mask (it's ok though bc the character was being rude)#God forbid someone's disability makes them inconsiderate sometimes?#No but it's okay because “they talked about it” off screen #or. Off recording?#Whatevr
