Fire and Blood

Don’t ever let them tell you that you’re too stupid to do something. I’m not saying it’s going to be easy for you. Maybe you’re going to have to work for it a little harder than other people. But that doesn’t mean you should just give up.

Sexism 60’s

[eclipsebykimlipmp3-deactivated2]

jesus???????????????

[mockeryd-deactivated20201004]

What the fuck was wrong with men in the 60’s?

[magicaldolan]

advertising is important as it’s the historian’s best resource for identifying the values of an era. but yeah, these were fucked. the 60s was generally as fucked as the 50s. people forget that. 

[yourladydisdain-deactivated2022]

It literally says ‘men are better than women’ in bold type, what the fuck. I knew this was a thing, but that is a lack of subtlety I couldn’t have written into a spoof…

This is the generation that spawned most of our parents… People our parents’ age run Washington. Starting to make sense? When you look to the past, the struggles of the present become a great deal more clear.

[kissing-whiskey-deactivated2019]

Hey Everyone, just an FYI…. This is not over. This is not exclusive to “our parents generation”

Oh hey look, a Hardee’s ad

[asharomi]

These advertisements had to go through layers of people. Someone said, “this is my idea” to a room of people and then sold the idea for money.

I could’ve taught it to all the other ladies at the shelter and Darlene could’ve sucked a sour one because she never would have been able to bitch at us for “having too many clothes.”

THERE IS SOMETHING UTTERLY WRONG WITH SHERLOCK’S BRAIN

REDBEARD ISN’T REAL

[anotherwellkeptsecret]

WHAT THE ACTUAL FICK??!

[prideandprejudiceandcheese]

Watch, of all the fanfics, they’re adapting Alone on the Water.

[ishipanarmada]

Shut.Up.

[anotherwellkeptsecret]

GO TO YOUR ROOM

[inevitably-johnlocked]

Okay, but… crack theory: What if this is Mycroft’s health issue?

Redbeard = The Other One who also died of it.

Sherlock KNOWS about this genetic health issue, and that’s why, in his mind palace, he’s so concerned about Mycroft’s health. Deduced down to the years / months that Mycroft possibly has to live. And why he thinks John can’t help him.

Mycroft wrote this down because he’s worried Sherlock is showing signs of it as well. I dunno, something to think about. 

[loveinthemindpalace]

NOOOOOO

[cigarettestobreathe]

Oh. My. God. Redbeard wasn’t real. Sherlock, baby. Oh my poor baby. And poor Mycroft Help heLP

[cumberbatchedandproud]

The second link that Jacky put there has a table and in that table there is exactly that number. Its part of the diagnosis. So I dont think that its his birthday

johnlocked:

Could be one of them’s got these syndromes. obvious choice is Mycroft just by the way he asks John to look after Sherlock. Since 611174 is a birth defect due to inter familial breading, could it have to do with Mary’s baby? I don’t say John’s baby because I don’t believe he is the father.

johnlokcdivision :

NO OMG IT’S A GENE - MAYBE MYCROFT IS LOOKING INTO CLONING REDBEARD, BUT IS WORRIED ABOUT POTENTIALLY LEAVING HIM WITH VERNET SYNDROME!?!?!?!

seasonsofjohnlock

Oh, God, now I remember reading a theory that Sherlock’s mind, to make it easier for Sherlock to deal with it, substituted someone with redbeard. So it wasn’t a dog who died, but a person! And Sherlock started to take drugs after that person died! 

idontshaveforhim

IM SCREAMING OH MY GOD

redbeard definitely isn’t ‘just a dog’, it’s a code word, for something or someone else, referring to something in sherlock’s past that’s had a HUGE impact on him (and mycroft?)

thepepperimpscakes

What if it’s “the other one” that Mycroft mentioned at the end of HLV? Sherlock lost a brother that’s never been mentioned. Something like that is way more likely to have set him down a destructive path than losing a dog. I always thought the whole dog thing was weird? That’s not nearly dramatic enough of a reason. There’s no way the dog was literal. And, this might be a stretch, but what if it just wasn’t a brother but a twin? A lot of people are saying Moriarty had a twin. And in the special, Sherlock was adamant that “it’s never twins!” Idk. I think it would be a cool twist that he was the one with the twin.

[waitedforgarridebs]

@wellthengameover !!!

[veilofthenight]

WHAT

[inevitably-johnlocked]

OMG, about the twins thing @thepepperimpscakes metioned: This exact quote in TAB:

JOHN: A secret twin? Hmm? You know, a twin that nobody knows about? This whole thing could have been planned.

SHERLOCK: Since the moment of conception?! How breathtakingly prescient of her! It is NEVER twins, Watson!

It could be applied to both that theory AND possibly the Moriarty / Janine theory. In this case: “It could have been planned” may refer to the fact it is a known genetic condition to the family, and “since the moment of conception” = born with it. If Mycroft or Sherlock and The Other One were twins, then both possibly have the same thing, something ‘planned’ since conception.

Also: possibly ‘twin’ meaning two, but not necessarily the same, so TWO Holmes siblings have the “planned since conception” thing.

Sherlock denying “it’s never twins!” is him denying that this thing exists in himself and his siblings; doesn’t want to face it.
