Also House.
Yep, House too.

re: female Watson casting
fornax:
Just to make this clear because I’m already getting comments - I don’t disagree with the potential complications/implications of them casting a female if it’s primarily to make a Sherlock/Watson romance canon in the show (although tbh if it’s done right, I don’t think romance is at all an inherently detrimental plot point for women characters), or wishing they’d made Sherlock (the main...

Not to mention how angry everyone seems to be over Elementary’s premise, as if the idea of a modern-day Sherlock Holmes was entirely original when Moffat and Gatiss started Sherlock.

omgggg lucy liu as watson all over my dash, what is this
fingers crossed that sherlock is also cast female (maybe another POC??? maybe????????) because gosh i would watch the hell out of that
if sherlock turns out to be a male i will probably become a little skeptical BUT STILL, AWESOME
Yeah… it sort of says something about this fandom that they’re all up in...

Honestly, you’d figure that the fact that pain and loneliness do not discriminate based on what sorts of privileges one has would actually result in some unity and compassion instead of attempts to dictate what one can and cannot be upset about.
I have opinions.

Last night we watched two episodes of Shark Tank, a reality show where entrepreneurs pitch their young businesses to a panel of “sharks” - businesspeople who also started small and are now bazillionaires (like the guy who owns FUBU). It was fascinating.
On the first episode that we watched, there was a set of sisters who pitched their business “Tippi Toes”...

“Hi!”
Verrrry tempted to just do that, but I’m so bad with awkward silences and I’m really intimidated by these people. It’s a lot less scary to bemoan the difficulty of social interaction than to go out on a limb and try to interact with people who intimidate me.
Oh, and guess which dingus left for a three-day ski trip and forgot his meds at home?

how do people start chat conversations

I’m just sitting here staring at a couple of names on Skype willing them to talk to me because I don’t know how to initiate talking to them.

I don’t think you can quantify emotional pain, and the only aspect of physical pain you could quantify, I’d think, would be the reactions of the nerve cells. My understanding is, and this may be entirely false, that the pain we experience is the reaction of the nerve cells filtered through our brain’s filtering system. The brain, I think, works...
