Mental world / Sherlock

[keep_counting]

First of all, please take a look at THIS and sign it if you want to help.

Now on to something fun I found on tumblr:

Patrick Jane from The Mentalist basically poses a theory on how Sherlock could have survived (and whoever made this parallel is awesome)

Small ball

It's pretty neat, plus different from a few other theories - even if it is just still speculation

Sometimes it annoys me when people pull out the Nazi card, because it feels like you can't say anything that's not politically correct anymore. And I think it's even more discriminatory when people forbid you to say some black people or gay people or whatever can be morons or bad people. Because they can. Just like us. And it's okay. Let's just look at each other and see people, with minds, souls, qualities and flaws. That's all I want, for me and for everybody else. Is this too much to ask from society?
But I see what you mean, and besides, homosexuals were persecuted by the Nazis, and some things that are happening atm are alarming.

I almost yelled at a friend once because we were out and he was a bit drunk and started saying he didn't like 'puffs' or whatever, and I had to tell him to stop saying these things, because it's plain wrong.

Sorry, I'm getting emotional. I've always over-reacted on that issue, because my parents have lots of gay friends, and I grew up having them around, and my godfather is gay and there are just no words to say how much I love him, and then I had gay friends of my own and I can't stand the idea that they can be looked at as if they were anything else than normal.


Good. I mean, don't get sick, but don't starve either. ;)

Oh, don't get me wrong, I don't think it's alright for people to pull the 'racist/homophobic/Nazi' card at any time, and I don't either: but, especially in Denmark, making snide comments like 'they need to get out of the country' or 'I don't want to look at them kissing/holding hands' are considered normal: I get odd looks for telling people that I don't want to hear them talking like that. And especially after what happened with Breivik in Norway - that could as easily have happened here: he was a member of the sister-party of one of our most racist-parties, and people believe it's alright to think like that: pulling the Nazi-card is something people can relate to, because we all agree that what they did was wrong, yet people over here think nothing harmful of making very racist comments: all it takes is someone with ambition to stir up a crowd, and we'll have several black and homosexuals getting attacked on the street: or someone placing a bomb and running around shooting young people.

Sorry for the rant, I'm just very passionate about it at the moment: Breivik is still so fresh in my mind, because it was so close to my home, in a society that mirrors the one I live in so much. It's a question of choice I think, because I don't want to get married, but if I ever fall in love with a girl, I want to have the opportunity to, yeah?

I'm so happy you got mad at your friend! A lot of the time I get told I'm too strict, because my friends always say: 'I don't mean it like that', but other people - younger people who mirror you - might not know that, and it becomes so destructive. Not everyone sees the hidden meaning and they come to think that it's alright to talk and think like that, even if the speaker didn't quite mean it.

Why do you insist on living in France so I can't hug you???

Don't apologise about the rant; I think we pretty much agree on this.

Aww *hugs you*
