“lol Arthur Conan Doyle clearly didn’t know anything about drugs. Sherlock Holmes did cocaine but it calmed him down. That’s not how cocaine works!”

There are two options: Arthur Conan Doyle had never met someone addicted to cocaine or he met some with ADHD who was addicted to cocaine

PLEASE FINALS BE OVER SOONER SO I CAN WRITE ABOUT JOHN WATSON BEING A SILLY LITTLE HOCKEY GOALIE AND SHERLOCK BEING A REFEREE PLEASE PLEASE

Reblogging this again now because DON’T GODDAMN FORGET

As a recovering Capitalism True Believer, and a former aspiring economist… this one hurts.

There are so many unintended consequences to well-intentioned actions. It feels like a game you can’t win.

#CHIDI WAS RIGHT

The Good Place really went with making their new Point ‘there is no ethical consumption under capitalism’ and I respect that

And then went on to say “blaming individuals for all of this is absurd and evil, as is locking them up for punishment instead of rehabilitation” and I respect that

Also, “consequentialism is a fundamentally flawed branch of ethics”

Okay, you know what? After reading this post, I jokingly said we should all just make a pact to reblog it five times a day forever. So I'm gonna do this louder for the people in the back:

AO3 WAS CREATED BY FANS, FOR FANS

AO3 IS RUN BY FANS (VOLUNTEERS, NO LESS)

AO3 IS PART OF THE NON-PROFIT, ORGANIZATION FOR TRANSFORMATIVE WORKS

AO3 IS NOT OWNED BY ANY COMPANIES AND DOES NOT EARN REVENUE

AO3 OPERATES ON DONATIONS FROM FANS

again:

AO3 WAS CREATED BY FANS, FOR FANS

reclaiming from american chucklefucks,

AO3 of the fans, AO3 by the fans, AO3 for the fans.

sherlock holmes is so real for ignoring all the shit irrelevent to his crime hyperfixation (such as, THE FUCKING SOLAR SYSTEM) and retaining only what serves it best. neurodivergent king, i adore him, he's so weird

Ijeoma (author of my favorite, Mediocre: The Dangerous Legacy of White Male America) back with the facts!

Reblog if you love AO3 and appreciate their volunteers who are working harder than God, fighting battle after battle, making sure the place that is a safe space for every fandom is staying up and running for all of us

I'd do this every day if it helped Ao3

I have never related more–

What does this mean and why was it on the student activities board

hey gang,

lets all agree to not watch the eras tour on disney+. taylor swift (our favorite private plane owner, and favorite progressive icon unless it concerns literal genocide) has plenty of money and plenty of a platform (that she doesnt use to help people suffering from a literal genocide). also, disney doesnt need your money or watch time either, not when theres a bajillion places to pirate it.

so, can we all do things that are helpful such as (at the very least), speaking out about the genocide israel is committing? you wont even be anti-semitic to do so! my source: myself. i'm jewish.

if you have a bit of money, why don't you donate or support palestinian owned businesses (instead of throwing your money at disney or ts)?

i'm not saying you cant be a swiftie or wtv, but maybe consider this before you flood to disney and start paying for her album.

at the very least:

reblogging again

Classics tumblr should try starting posts with invocations to the muses.

"To the goddess I call, of memes she sings

Make light of the epics, those ancient things

Give cause to jeer Atreus' son

Within the tags, of his name make a pun"

Be furious.

Be absolutely enraged.

May each of their memories fuel this revolution. May their homeland live on. We must never stop. For them.
