CBS’ Elementary Is Everything To Me.

Let me introduce you to Peter Cushing, the Holmes actor that looks insanely similar to the Sidney Paget illustrations!

Concept: Garak meeting Data. At first, Garak is curious about this android Julian speaks so highly of, hoping for some delightful literature debate. The moment Data walks into view, however, and Data says, "I am eager to spend my shore leave here on the station" Garak gets distracted by the fact that Data is spending his shore leave in his uniform. Naturally, Garak invites Data to his shop to find him something a little more casual and fashionable to wear, but that proves an impossible challenge: Data simply does not style. Garak can find clothes that suit him, that accentuate his skin tone (and then de-accentuate it when Data requests so in an effort to look more human), and he can find styles that suit Data's body type... but none of that changes the fact that Data wears clothes the same way the average person chooses a padd to work with: with no regard for aesthetic whatsoever. Being an android, he has no concept of personal style, and is equally comfortable working clothed or nude, and only wears clothes because of social expectation. Therefore, no matter what Garak styles him in, it ends up looking bland and drab, because Data never really feels the clothes he wears or takes pride in the cut or the make or how it looks on him or any of it.

Finally, Data finds something that he wants to wear, and worse, it's not even from his shop (but then, of course not: Garak would die before allowing a fashion monstrosity like that to come into existence with his own hands). The item of clothing in question: The most hideous cat-print breezy beach shirt Garak has even seen, in a horrid kitchen wall yellow that puts all of Julian's fashion crimes to shame. And then, to top it all off, the yellow brings out Data's eyes nicely, and he enjoys wearing it because the cat on the print reminds him of Spot... which means he looks good in it.

Garak visits sickbay with several fractured knuckles on his right hand, and Julian jokingly asks: "Did you punch a bulkhead?" Garak laughs, but Miles mentions having to repair an odd fist-shaped dent in the bulkhead in Garak's shop, and makes the same joking remark: "I didn't take Garak for a punching a bulkhead kind of guy, but I don't know how else it could have happened."

Suddenly, his joke doesn't seem like much of a joke.

Other people want Doctor Who to go back to it's roots by having the Doctor be a white man. I want Doctor Who to go back to it's roots by having the Doctor tell a Dalek to kill itself. We are not the same.

The 10th Doctor gives of Hozier vibe. I don't know I think he would really feel the music and he just fits the vibe... yk?

Who agrees?

I've got this Idea for a Shaun Murphy x reader or x oc or something like that fic, which is basically a good doctor lie to me crossover, where the reader works at the lightman group or at least, can read micro-expressions and that stuff and they somehow meet and become friends and maybe fall in love. I think it would be really interesting because he doesn't really see or understand facial expressions but the other person is so aware of them all the time. I'm not good at writing in English but I might someday write it anyways. So if someone wants to write this or has written something like that pls tell me.

Ah hello! I saw you responded to my post about alternatives to hugging and I wanted to say thanks and also that's an awesome alternative I love it! I can't say I've listened to that concert specifically but Simon and Garfunkel are one of my favorites too, I especially like Bridge Over Troubled Water as a hug song!

Oh also!! Happy pride month, fellow ace!! 💜💜

Yes, Bridge over troubled water is an amazing song. Also belated happy pride month ( can you say that?). 🖤🌑🤍💜

I just started season 3 of Poirot and, excuse me? Where are Hastings' little hyperfixations? Where is the adorable little side plot of Hastings being obsessed with a new obscure little topic every episode? I hope they just dropped it for the first few episodes and will pick it up again. Give the man his ADHD back!!

Audiobooks are great, but if you are not a native English speaker you will probably understand even less when you listen to it (at least that’s my experience). So if you have trouble understanding an old English book, get a student edition. At school you probably read classics in your language and at least in germany we have student editions where outdated obscure German words and grammar are explained at the bottom and those exist in English too. ( I think there is something like „Shakespeare no fear“ etc.) Or get a student version in your native language for students studying English, where the text itself is the original, but the annotations are in your language. I know a lot of people are ashamed of buying student versions because they think their English should be good enough, or they won’t have the „real experience“ or something like that… that’s bullshit. You are not a native English speaker, and you are most certainly not an (insert time period of work you’re trying to read) native English speaker so naturally you will have trouble understanding some words, or even the whole text. And if you just read through it without understanding a thing, it will be boring, exhausting and you will gain nothing at all. Let me tell you there are classical German (my native language!) authors I would not dare to touch without an annotated version, because they write in a crazily complicated style in outdated terms. So buy that damn student version and enjoy your classic!

Not to be a pretentious asshole but yes there is a problem with people no longer reading the classics. A lot of the YA literature romance novel crowd perpetuates the myth that the classics are inherently boring and stuffy and there’s nothing you can relate to or learn by reading them. And they’re not. These beautiful universal things we enjoy, comedy, romance, tragedy, family strife, they’re still so poignant centuries after they’re written.

Very specific example, but watching the central Park concert that Simon and Garfunkel gave. It always makes me feel warm and incredibly happy. Also laying on the sofa with a blanket and watching documentaries.

Since I'm not very big on physical affection, I've been obsessed recently with finding things that feel like a hug, not physically but that happy, safe, warm feeling that people get from hugs. Like for instance, nighttime gives me that feeling, as well as sitting under trees, watching shows with my favorite characters/my favorite scenes, and of course curling up under floofy blankets.

I'd be extremely curious to hear what other people have as alternatives to hugs!
