For those who have never seen Jeremy Brett's depiction of Sherlock Holmes, the entire collection of his Sherlock Holmes episodes / movies (from 1984-1994) is available to watch for free on Youtube.

I highly recommend watching these if you are a fan of the original Sir. Arthur Conan Doyle Sherlock Holmes stories. These are (in my opinion) the most faithful retellings and they are very well-acted.

WOW! SLAPPED. (Totally deserved.)

Can't help it. I know she's a literary creation...

Dear Cairo Sweet:

Saw this post on FB today and it jarred my sleepy Sunday mind sideways into you.

You see, there's a better way of BECOMING. You didn't have to hurt and destroy Prof. Miller or hurt Winnie (you bitch... respectfully). But you needed--desired--to get into his pants also, for which I don't blame you, but still... (asshole!)

Here's Kurt Vonnegut's advice about BECOMING. Keep this in mind next time you're in a rut and needed to rut...

I do understand that without your version of BECOMING (and your lust), and Jonathan's culpability, we wouldn't have MILLER'S GIRL as it is. We'd just have a 20-minute film of you and Jonathan eye-flirting, then falling asleep and snoring in the classroom because nothing spicy was going to happen.

I'm keeping my eyes on you.

From someone who still feels like strangling you and Bea Miller.

MILLER'S GIRL is a f**king beautiful film.

I weep with Jonathan Miller and Winnie Black. I feel rage at what had been done to them them.

I feel rage at Cairo Sweet and Beatrice Miller. If this story was real, I hope Jon dusts himself off, writes again, and beats those bitches in the bestselling books stake...and that he writes "Miller's Girl". (haha)

Disappointed with Coach Boris and the vice-principal with their treatment of Jonathan.

Won't say my reasons so that you'll watch it on @Netflix. (@Netflix Philippines hasn't included it yet on its list.)

The most haunting scene for me was the close up of Jon's eye as a tear fell down from it. (I wish I've got a screenshot of it.) The most erotic was the imagined sex scene.

Kudos to the actors led by Martin and Jenna, the writer, director, crew, and producers.

The film didn't do well in theaters, but jumped to Netflix's Top Ten.

I still feel weepy and 'teeth-gnashy' about it.

One day, it will be acknowledged as a beautiful, haunting film.

Successful trans men

I wish I knew about men like these growing up, I wish I knew that trans men could be successful after a lifetime of never seeing anyone ‘like me’ excelling in life. So here are some trans men - some that you may have heard of, some that you may not - that are successful in a range of careers. Never let being trans hold you back, never think you can’t do something, never think there is not a place for you.
