A photograph of a TV screen showing Jeremy Brett, a thin cis white man acting the role of Sherlock Holmes. He is dressed in a period accurate 1890s dark coat, wearing a bowler hat. He has a scarf wrapped around his head. The scarf is wrapped over the top of the bowler hat, crossing itself under his chin

Who let this man out of the house like this?? He looks like a toddler who was allowed to dress himself

Yknow what's fucked up? When we were kids my mum would insist that I sat in the middle seat in the car because "girls have narrower hips" even though I had noticeably wider hips than both my cis male brothers. What was that even about, what good did it do to insist on obviously false gender roles?

Wagamama's

TIL that USAmericans, at least in the 90s, don't consider "bollocks" to be a swear word. Quite a shock to hear the polite, if gruff, Dr. Hazlitt describe a road as "bollocksed up" 😂

"it's too nice a day to spend it awake" Seth Hazlitt you're a visionary

Binary trans people love saying that gender and sex are two different things until I use sex and gender as two different things and get called transphobic. I'm a female nonbinary guy but no one wants to hear any further than female

If my life is as fake as an incognisant rabbit I wish I could at least know it

Idk why I thought he was German but this is what I'm talking about

What is it with AIs and hallucinating things? I saw a post a while back about an AI minutes generator for an insurance company which kept hallucinating a little (German?) boy and adding him to insurance claim reports. Hang on I'm gonna go find what I'm talking about brb

I would pay a lot of money for the full hour of Jess destroying a 90s shock jockey on a radio show. He's like a proto-alpha male. He said he educates himself through online data osmosis. What the fuck does that mean??

#MurderSheWrote

"He did the thing he's been doing for more than half a century, I'm so shocked. How could I have foreseen this?"

On this episode of "the writer's barely disguised fetish" we have #MurderSheWrote S9 E8, where Jessica visits a restaurant/bar/club/barn dance with attractive young waitresses who will feed you your meal bite by bite while giggling at you. I may not be into feedism but I know a kink when I see one.

Driving and its related activities are a mystery to me, I don't understand how you can look at a space and just know your car will fit there. It may as well be magic. You are awesome for being able to park a whole vehicle without getting out to check every 10 seconds or hitting anyone/anything

Jessica Fletcher saying "I've found that those who feel they have something to prove never succeed in doing so" is a smack down on its own and then she follows it up with "my sleep is untroubled, Mr Evans, I wish you the same"?? Girl I love you #MurderSheWrote

Congratulations ❤️ everyone should have the opportunity to live openly and happily

I'm loving the number of #MurderSheWrote episodes with our favourite deputy Floyd. He's so sweet and positive.

I love the way she's looking at him like she can't believe the audacity of trying to play a character to the detective when he knows she knows they met the day before and he was not a car salesman from out of town

I am 100% convinced Trump and/or people high up in ICE are getting kickbacks for every "illegal immigrant" they deport to a foreign prison. Prisoners are already used as all-but-slaves in the USA, it makes sense they'd want to sell others for the same reason.

Get better sources than some white guy who claims he's spiritually Korean without even bothering to learn the language lmao

Do you really think Oli London is a reputable, unbiased source of information?

Turns out bigoted cishets really don't like it when you refer to their "straight marriage only stick to gender roles etc" bullshit as their agenda. Who knew?

Clearly Jeff doesn't love you the way you deserve. You should put tiny geese in his shoes or something.

HOLY FUCK THEY KILLED SETH

Also also, Sheriff Metzger is losing his mind because this is the fifth murder in Cabot Cove since he started a year ago and that makes him the only sensible person in the entire town.

I'm also pretty sure she murdered her husband but that's by the by.

I'm back on #MurderSheWrote (S5E21) and so far, the Eudora character has been incredibly unpleasant. She starts off telling her husband to choose between her and his son, then invites herself to stay with Jess and proceeds to insult Cabot Cove repeatedly and relentlessly.

Brain chemicals can suck my theoresticles

I'm doing all the things I'm supposed to do to feel better. I've deleted most social media and replaced it with embroidery. I'm cutting down on sugar (you can pry caffeine from my cold dead hands). I sit in the sun. I eat as much fruit and veg as possible. So why am I still always sick with anxiety?

So their plan is to replace foreign workers recruited from outside the UK with... foreign workers already in the UK? Who could already be working in care, but aren't, which implies they don't have the necessary skills for- or interest in- care work in the first place?

A simplified image of earth against a muted green background

Wishing you a good morning from today's Daily Planet, Earth. At least I think it's Earth. Hopefully I didn't get abducted by aliens and taken to another planet in my sleep. Again.
