#the word starts with m and ends with isogyny.

People are always so eager to wield Beyoncé’s husband’s misdeeds against her. He nearly tore their family apart, but she’s the one who continually gets insulted and punished.

sorry for yelling here i don't have anyone else to tell abt s&co to so JDHJSVAJDVSJGSJS THE NEW EP ???? I'VE ALREADY LISTENED TO IT 3 TIMES IT'S SOOOOOO GOOD LIKE ???? WE GOT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THE TRIO AND I LOVE IT !!!! ALSO SHERLOCK LAUGHING MADE ME WANT TO DO BACKFLIPS THAT'S MY BOY FR !!!!

But also the Mariana "hate" (for lack of a better word) is annoying leave her alone. I want JohnLock as much as (assuming) a good amount of the fandom but people don't have to be nasty to her bc she might potentially be John's love interest. I've seen some posts saying that the John and Mariana conversations were unnecessary but praise the John and Sherlock ones like ???? Something is going on here... it starts with m and ends in isogyny

Anyways i fall more in love with the podcast every week i love those 3 idiots so much sorry for rambling okay bye have a nice day

Hello Anon! Sorry for the delay in responding to this; I've been busier then expected lately lol.

I KNOW I LOVED THE GLORIA SCOTT EPISODE, IT WAS SO GOOD! The way in the second half we get two similar convos from John, but the way they mirror each other was so delightful. Also, the way we can infer from Sherlock's use of names and titles how emotionally close he's feeling to someone. The whole thing was just ugh, I loved it.

I'm personally team polycule. I really hope those three end up in a peaceful love triangle where they each satisfy each other in whatever ways they need (and if they don't I'm writing the fanfic lol).

As for other's clear jumping the gun upset over recent pod events, yeah some of it is misogyny, whether it's overt or bog standard baked in cultural whatever, but some of it (and I sympathize) is the way a chunk of the fandom is from other fandoms where there was definite queerbaiting and they're carrying that hurt over here. I also think media literacy in general is on a decline and many people's interpretations are more gut emotional then looking at where the story is going and the tropes they're employing. So I can see where their upset is coming from and I get it. I'm generally avoiding that and just keeping on in my own little corner. People are entitled to their emotions on their own blog and I can enjoy things in my own way without having to acknowledge or engage with any of that.

Thanks for your message!

What a fucking letdown of a finale.

Killing Jac is a decision that’s just stupid beyond words. By far Holby’s most iconic character and this is how they fucking treat her? Everything they’ve put Rosie through for the show and they can’t even give her character the happy ending she’s always been asking for? It’s infuriating.

I would go so far as to say Holby, under its last producers, appears to have an obsession with killing traumatised female characters, specifically abuse survivors, instead of letting them have happy endings. They started small, with Carole. Then they immediately moved on to Jac.

Compare Jac and Henrik. Two characters who have both led very sad, tragic lives. Both traumatised. Both chronically mentally ill. Both coded as bisexual. But Henrik gets to come out and gets a happy ending, if a very confusing one. Jac just ended up dead.

I spy with my little eye, something beginning with ‘m’ and ending with ‘isogyny’. Fuck this show.

And they didn’t even let her last past the first, like, 10 minutes of the episode. Yikes.

I can’t say anything more about Jac because I’ll get too upset for words if I do, but... she deserved better. That’s it. That’s all I can say.

As for Henrik. My darling, darling Henrik. He deserves a tribute post for everything he’s done over the years, but I don’t have the words to write him one just yet, so here’s what I can say about him in the finale: I’m glad the last thing I ever get to remember Henrik Hanssen for is him smiling at the man he loves. I’m glad we got that. I am grateful beyond words for it, I truly am.

But they just wasted so much time with Henruss. The Billie pregnancy plot, shipping Russ off to Leeds. I wish I could appreciate this ending for them more, but I’m just so disappointed in what their storyline became. Henrik’s internalised homophobia was glossed over. Russ’s grief was glossed over. We didn’t get a single mention of Gaskell, Henrik’s first ever male love interest, and how that trauma would surely have affected Henrik’s relationships - especially with men.

And we don’t even get to know what Henrik’s actually doing now? Has he quit Holby and is he gonna move to Leeds, will he stay at Holby and go long-distance with Russ, or what? I dearly hope Casualty will tell us. And I dearly hope he’s quit, or at least quit the CEO job, because there’s no happy ending for him if he’s still in that role.

Guy Henry was amazing throughout this episode, though. I have no words for his performance.

Everyone’s acting was amazing, really. Bob Barrett, Paul Bradley, Belinda Owusu... a lot of great performances in this episode.

And I did like that little moment with Henrik and Lexy complaining about the government. Gotta give Holby credit for that.

The little scene with Henrik and Mo was excellent, too. Even if it did make me cry.

The rest of the cameos, though... I wasn’t expecting much, but somehow Joseph only being there for 2 seconds in person was worse than if he was a vision Jac had. The Berena cameo was alright, nothing much.

I did actually love Ric’s cameo, though. It was short, but sweet. It’s nice to have the last thing we remember of him be him being busy at work, still saving lives.

And the montage of cast photos at the end was lovely. A better tribute to the show, I felt, than the episode itself was.

The stuff with Ken, and Dom and Josh and Ange, was alright, but didn’t feel like finale material.

I’m trying to find more to say. I wish I had more to say. But I just can’t, it seems. All I can say is I’ll miss Henrik Hanssen, and Jac Naylor, and all the other wonderful characters. I won’t miss the show.

“why would you romanticize Pansy Parkinson when [insert criticisms of Pansy that would be totally fair if they were not bashing her to lift up and deify Astoria, like that’s super feminist]”

—yeah, well, you’ll forgive me if I don’t take seriously the prescriptions of people who valorize Draco Malfoy for doing the absolute bare goddamn minimum to “redeem” himself (never mind erasing the fact that he was excited about being a Death Eater and only changed his tune when he turned out to be really bad at it), and ignore Marcus Flint’s entire canon personality in order to justify shipping him with Oliver Wood (when Flint was a smarmy bully, an easily-bought elitist, and a Blood Purist, at least in that he sure doesn’t object to Draco throwing around, “Mudblood,” like we’re supposed to hate Pansy for, in addition to not allowing girls on the Slytherin Quidditch team, though that is, in fairness, only explicit in the movies)

Like, if you want to hate Pansy, then fine, I can’t stop you and it’s fair enough to dislike her or any other character — but don’t act like your reasons for it are ideologically pure when you ignore all of the scant characterization that Flint got in order to have a white boy slash ship with Oliver (when, hey, Percy Weasley is right there, or Fred and/or George, or Harry, or Cedric, or Viktor……), and especially not when you erase all of Draco’s shitty actions and traits, including the fact that he was an actual Death Eater, and over-woobify him as though he’s NOT one of the biggest bullies and Blood Purists in the series
