Ok so every elementary fan knows they fumbled the bag with the season 6 villain but upon my umpteenth rewatch I realised something.
Spoilers under the cut…
So in s06e10 they reintroduce Moriarty as a threat coming after Morland and although crafty to have Sherlock force them into a ceasefire (unstoppable force, immovable object) killing both of them would be the perfect bittersweet ending to the two of the biggest foes in Sherlock’s life. Have him playing both sides against each other. Seems like a backward step after Sherlock made amends with his father after Mycroft’s death but they could tabled his forgiveness til after Morland died. They’ve previously had Moriarty kill a rival (Alana Marsh s3) so why didn’t they do it here with Michael and then have Morland & Moriarty be the actual villains for the rest of s6? Maybe keeping everything the way it is and if there was a season 8 Moriarty would’ve been the final boss.
Maybe Natalie just didn’t want to come back to reprise the role. Maybe the writers thought it would be redundant to bring her back since she was “defeated” in season 1 but she escaped. They literally wrote her escaping and brought her character back in abstentia after 4 seasons for THIS? Makes season 6 almost for disappointing if that’s possible.
And while I’m here lemme rant about Michael and also Hannah. If Michael has no haters then I am dead. He was so SLIMY AND ELUSIVE AND THE WAY HE ATTACKED JOAN????
They revealed Hannah was an alcoholic (and proceeded to do nothing with it) and didn’t use that as Michael’s “in” to infiltrate Hannah’s circle? Isn’t that less suspicious than a fender bender? 👀 He clearly researched Sherlock’s circle. Randomly meeting at a recovery meeting makes more sense. Tbh I wish Michael had killed her off instead of her roommate but that would’ve blown up the Captain’s life and set him on the path for revenge and messed up the storyline.
The whole thing about him going away because Sherlock is unwell was bullshit. Michael should’ve been dropping bodies waiting for Sherlock to come back. It’s his big finale as a serial killer who announced himself. Either that or it was a lie to abscond. And it would’ve given us opportunities to see Joan being badass without Sherlock there but justifying why he WASN’T there. But idk how I’d feel about an elementary episode without Sherlock.
Then like a cockroach Michael comes back and dies in the most anticlimactic way POSSIBLE. I get that that was the point and I loved the tension with them trying to pin it on Joan (that FBI agent was pissing me off) but I still hated it. It did give us the best finale. And then they retconned it with season 7. 🙃 I’m not saying I didn’t like the series finale, I just think s6 finale was the perfect ending.
Also why didn’t Sherlock just reinstate Alfredo as his sponsor? OR GET A NEW ONE? 📢 Then he wouldn’t have leaned on Michael so much and maybe he would have sniffed out his bullshit earlier. Like the last episode Alfredo is in is so important to Sherlock’s familial healing and THEN HE IS JUST NEVER SEEN AGAIN???? Are we to assume that he thinks Sherlock is dead? They didn’t even bring him back for the last episode of season 7. 😭 Ok the actor was booked and busy in 2019 but it wasn’t right. The writers seemed to care so much about its core characters and after the s3 finale Alfredo is a core character.
JUSTICE FOR ALFREDO.
I think I’m gonna rank the season finales and also my top 10 episodes EXCLUDING the finales.

I occasionally wish to reach out to old friends/acquaintances I haven't spoken to since high school/some other even earlier time in my life, but I have SOOO little social energy even for required tasks (like making dr phone calls or etc), I never have any leftover for extra ones, and it would be very odd to message someone I haven't spoken to in like 5 years out of the blue but then take 4 entire months to respond back lol.. My natural curiosity with nostalgia/collecting details of the past/etc. (literally if I were born a little earlier I would definitely do scrapbooking or something lol) is very strong, but, alas, not strong enough to beat out the Social Issues Demons apparently
#facebook always does that 'here's a post from this day 8 years ago' thing. and I see old comments interacting#with people and it's so like.. OOOOO~~ where are they now?? what's going on? how much have they changed as people?#how much are they the same? this is fascinating. i should contact them!!' but then it's like... take that to it's logical conclusion though#you would contact them and then IF they even responded it would take you 80 years to respond and then they would#think there was something wrong or that you were trying to be insulting or something. To contact anyone I need to include an 85 page#disclaimer of all of my social issues & mental illness things. 'If i take 3 weeks to reply I promise it has nothing to do with u' etc lol#THIS is why more people need to be into phone calls/voice calls/some form of audio real time communication/etc.#I think one of the main things that's hard about messaging through text for me is it's so unscheduled and open ended#(plus it takes forever if you're talking about anything in detail and gets very long very quickly)#because like you can send a message and then just get a reply whenever. and then you're expected to reply back whenever#so it's like you never know when the response will come or when a new obligation to reply can come up? so it's like this sudden thing with#no outline?? if that makes sense. whereas a phone call is very like 'hello let's schedule a call from 10am - 2pm on thursday'. And you know#EXACTLY when the interaction will start and EXACTLY when it will end and you can plan around it in your schedule easily.#I have the reverse thing of a lot of people (how people don't pick up phone calls/hate calls/only text)#I would literally talk on the phone with a stranger. I would have a discord voice chat with someone I barely know.#if someone I hardly even remember from elementary school asked to have a voice call with me out of nowhere I would do it.#but if a stranger MESSAGED me?? or someone I barely know sent me a TEXT or something?? I will never reply probably#It's just too vague and weird. and you can't read voice tone over text. and the interaction could last forever with no clear end#point and etc. etc. But a call is like. set. established. clear boundaries. you can read the flow of conversation better. rapport. etc. etc#I get that I guess people feel more anonymous or distanced over text?? but you can have fake phone numbers on the computer. or do like disc#rd calls. or zoom without a camera or etc. etc. Also the distance that's present in text is BAD distance because it just means that tone is#not conveyed properly and you will never truly get a sense of the person's conversational vibe or mannerisms or how well you really click.#ANYWAY ghgjh...... I'm so so so interested in concepts of like.. How did that one kid I used to talk to in elementary school#but then they moved away in 5th grade - how did they end up? what are they doing now?? etc. etc. Like despite the severe social anhedonia#and general lack of connection with others I'm just really fascinated in like.. idk. the human development of it all and like#the concept of how we're actually a million different people through the course of our lives ever evolving in different iterations and etc.#PLUS again. i love nostalgia. sometimes old peple you know might remember a shared memory or can tell you about something you forgot#or etc. like it's SUCH A COOL THING in CONCEPT but I am too socially inept generally speaking lol. which people I still talk to today are#familiar with my 'phone call once every few months' communication style. but strangers would just be like... wtf. And I don't blame them#Sure I literally cannot change the physical health + brain issues i have - but also I know enough to not put others through that lol

the other day I was talking to an older coworker of mine who has several grandkids and said "you've probably heard of five nights at Freddy's, right? since you have young grandkids." and she's like "no what's that?" so I told her about it and she was like "OH ABSOLUTELY NOT. id never let young kids play that kind of stuff, that's too scary and violent!"
she gave me a ride home and guess what she had in her backseat that her grandson had left in there. this thing
#nerd alert#the context was i was talking about willys wonderland bc we were talking about horror movies#and she was SO APPALLED that little kids are out there playing a game about. evil murder animatronics that jump out and scare you#and im like yeah its weird man. theres a whole child horror genre now. its kinda crazy#i think its normal tho tbh like. it was very common when i was growing up for kids to sneak and try to watch horror movies#that were definitely not appropriate for them to be viewing#my stepbrother let my little brother watch childs play when he was like 8 and he had nightmares about chucky for MONTHS#im pretty sure i knew some kids in my elementary school classes that watched saw not long after it came out on VHS or whatever#we were out there singing about violently murdering barney at like 7 years of old. kids are weird!#but its still weirder now that these franchises are being marketed specifically TO children. like thats a little strange. to me

Elizabeth, lived her life in the countryside without need of learning to even read Jonathan: My love, let me tell you about blablablablabla -mathphysicsliteracymachineselectricityspacetime...-
Elizabeth: What a fascinating man.
#|| I just adore the fact she never had any education and then love of her life is like#|| you cannot read? mice don't read? pff let me show you! I'll teach you!#|| probably taught her some elementary math and would talk about physics but that's where her limits came asdsadas#|| he would just be so passionate about knowledge and learning she just got excited too#|| and she did learn to read and write! slow but she can#|| like in main AU this is even more clear but tbh even in my other AUs she comes from poor family that hadn't access to anything#|| Jonathan was her key to modern things and city things- of timelines depending AU ofc

Pet peeve of mine...
when a show establishes an incredible dynamic between two or more characters, then proceeds to give them no screentime together for multiple seasons. It really grinds my gears.
#most streaming shows and some network shows do this and i don't really get it#so i think it would be easier to tag the shows i like that don't fall into this pattern#abbott elementary#janine and gregory are in a weird place but it's obvious they'll be fine#the boys#if that show finds a pairing that works either romantically or platonically they usually won't let it fall by the wayside#hughie and starlight (especially hughie) annoyed me a bit in s3 but they had sweet moments too and their arc ended pretty nicely#dickinson#okay i'm cheating here because this show did keep emisue apart in ways that were sometimes frustrating#but they made it clear that they were always on each other's minds and gave them many big moments throughout the three seasons#it also didn't completely toss away other dynamics that i liked such as emily and lavinia and emily and death#being human#the goat honestly#they core four always had their own thing going on but they included each other as much as possible#they nailed it and i wish more people talked about that show#and yes this is blasphemy but i only mean the north american version#the uk version replaced its cast halfway through so i just can't count it unfortunately

ok tbh. as i continue to have more Positive Pride Thoughts, as was my resolution for pride this year, i think i want to emphasize my birom status more, because personally...thats what really matters most to me? i come out as bi to normies so i dont have to explain things, but being a birom ace is really just. vital to my being, idk. i usually say ‘im ace’ when talking about myself but thats just really not accurate. i am BIROM ACE. that is what MATTERS to me.
#shitpost#again. i never talk about this stuff so posting is weird#but i PROMISED myself id start writing and trying to articulate some of this#and my tumblr diary really is the best place to do so lol#i love being in love and the first time i fell in love i was four years old and i remember it clearly lol#and of course ive fallen so many times since then too. its easy! its beautiful! i love being in love!#and thats important to me! its so important and i feel like i let it get washed away in the assumptions people usually make about aces#(and those are exhausting but i Promised i wouldnt talk about that stuff. i will NOT get negative this year!)#just. i am biromantic!!!!! being biromantic is important to me!! the MOST important even!#i knew i was birom when i was in elementary school! i have always spoken of my future partner in bi terms.#(tho as anyone around normies its easy to accidentally speak in a comphet kinda way so often it would be like. 'future husband...OR WIFE')#like i just would add it hastily in afterwards#because i really did! always know!!! even from a very young age i talked like that!#(i was fortunate to know a gay couple before i even knew what gay or queerness really meant. so it always felt normal to me.)#(i know that is not a lot of people's experiences)#but yeah. ok. im done. just trying to make a post about this stuff that has been swimming in my head#before pride month is up#im not against posting more in general but. i sortof really wanted tot ry to talk during pride#and afterwards ill go back to my usual self haha

*describing smth that only happens in rich areas* yeah so basically i think teachers need to punish kids more
#you have to be out of your fucking mind to have this opinion sorry#take it from someone from a very rural kinda poor area. you dont want your kids treated like that#no not all parents bite your head off for getting their kid in trouble. you just work at a rich school#i saw some heinous shit go on at my elementary school as a kid and im 100% sure that doesnt happen in rich areas#who let my 2nd grade teacher scream at us like that. HELLO??#she would literally scream so loud about how awful and annoying we are and how much she hates teaching us#my 1st grade teacher would regularly degrade us and tell us we were horribly behaved and need to grow up#i also once saw her take a belt and tie a kid down to his chair bc he was getting up too much#to tell you how poor and rural it was lol. we didnt have stim toys or w/e your teacher just tied you down#its so horrible looking back#i do think covid fucked up kids bc they werent learning for 2-3 years and now they're expected to be at a higher level#but i dont think behaviour issues can be settled as easily as some ppl think they can#and to teachers complaining about kids never getting punished: be glad they only get calls home or suspended#i had teachers tell us they wish it was legal to hit students#i had a teacher slam a ruler on a desk do hard it shattered#i had a teacher who would talk behind poorly behaved kids backs. especially if they were neurodivergent or ''weird''#just be kind to children jesus christ

ok im actually feeling a bit crazy I need to interact with ppl beyond my immediate family and workplace
#i need to talk to with friends again#and actually go places#and be my authentic self like I feel I’ve been masking but then I’m scared I’ll come off as rude or self centered or strange#the anxiety!!!#click clack#really thought I grown out of it but nope#my 20’s are all about figuring out that I did not get over the ostracization I faced as an elementary schooler#snowballing into me learning how to be comfortable in solitude but oh no now I’m yearning#hahahaha :’) these feelings came out of nowhere but they’ve been building up slowly for the past year or so#or my whole life actually#im actually more upset that I’m not even doing much with my free time other than scrolling and reading. I wanna make things again!!!#which means if I’m not making things I would love to socialize but I feel so paralyzed#all my needs are met except my social interaction bar????#and if it were to happen more I can’t keep up a conversation or scared to start one and the pressure of replying#*screams internally*#ok I let that out I just gotta practice talking to people again that’s all…right?

dream started cute then got sad. and also like very confusing. such a random mix of characters and time periods that kept changing
#the good thing-> saw my favorite person and we were very close#the bad thing -> she replaced me with a girlfriend that she met at her new job while i was sitting there panicking about her medical issues#like literally she was like hey im going to the hospital cause this happened and then asked me to make her a cup of tea when she gets back#while i was waiting i was helping some people i know from elementary school that were in my internship position#which makes no sense cause that was in a hospital but also not? like the setting was so confusing and kept changing#and later after i had prepared the cup of tea and i was waiting the pov changed and i was seeing her#with this girl being all flirty and cute and then they were at a train (?)#and the setting changed to like i a different older decade?#idk#and they were like being all cute and flirty again and they were talking about sth idr what and then she said lets talk about something#more bi again or something like that that insinuated that they were both bi and in love#and i was waiting worried and sad with her cup of tea#and then i woke up#jo says stuff#personal ramblings#my dreams

i love when people join old fandoms bc it means we get new fan content but also
i hate when people join old fandoms i was a part of during launch because it's like.... you don't know them like i know them. you weren't there. you didn't grow with them.
#me at the elementary schoolers i work with who were talking about the book of bill when it released#like yall dont even KNOW gravity falls#let alone how to read#how do you even know what that is
