Apparently "attacking someone for their looks is a bad thing to do regardless of the morality of the person" is a hot take

I like how this is apparently a new thing. In S2 he literally jokes about women not asking about his scars because he's THAT good at sex. S1E1 Foggy mentions he has a (paraphrase) "spooky ability to identify questionable beautiful women". There's literally a sex scene with Elektra is S2? Like? C'mon people, at least watch the show.

Be kinder to the MCU fanboys and their video essays about how Matt Murdock isn’t relatable for them anymore

He isn’t…Matt gets bitches.

Those poor fools are struggling. Keep them in your prayers

Actually homophobic of Tumblr to not immediately load up the pretty lady in the trending preview set of posts when i click it

After reading a few posts, I identify it as Watson. Watson is the reason it's a phenomenon. I'd say uniquely to a lot of mystery solving type things, they are partners, and uniquely, Watson is the narrator, not Sherlock, not an anonymous 3rd force. There's something so compelling about the connection between Watson and Holmes, about the validity of Holmes' nature through Watson's view.

Does anyone have any thoughts about why Sherlock Holmes is such a phenomenon? I mean, the first book was written in the late Victorian era, and there are still new adaptions coming out every year, with hundreds in total! BBC Sherlock was obviously part of the Superwholock 'big three' trifecta, and Sherlock Holmes/John Watson has consistently ranked in the top 100 most popular ships on AO3 for years! Even the stuffy Victorian wore black armbands to protest the death of Sherlock Holmes! I mean, how did this happen?! How did a London doctor who wrote in his spare time create one of the world's largest and longest-running phenomenons, who he hated? What is it about Sherlock Holmes that strikes chords in so many across such time and space?

Idk, I've been thinking about it a lot lately, and I'd love to discuss it and hear your thoughts!
