Here There Be Nonsense @eremiss - Tumblr Blog

Links!

This is my main/only ‘real’ blog. I mostly post FFXIV content, but share and reblogs are all over the place. I’m up to date with FFXIV in-game content and regularly peruse many a lore blog/resource. I’ll do my best to mark spoilers in reblogs and in my writing, but I’m generally terrible at tagging (sorry.)

Asks and Messages are always open, even if we’re not mutuals!

FFXIV Lore & References -- A post with links to FFXIV info, lore, gear, maps, and references, both on and off Tumblr.

Guinevere Ashe -- My Midlander WoL, shipped with Thancred (#Gwencred). My main FFXIV character, and basically the only one I write for. Located on Lamia (Primal Datacenter)

Writing Stuff -- The master post with links to my big writing tags, including master posts from prompt challenges like WriteFFXIV.

Watson and Holmes have a true crime podcast. Holmes goes off on very boring scientific tangents at least thrice an episode and Watson guides him back on topic with his extremely dry sense of humor. Lestrade is occasionally a guest on the show and Holmes finds new ways to subtly suggest he’s an idiot. Mycroft is in like one show a year and the fans love him because he’s unexpectedly very funny. They ask for more Mycroft episodes and it becomes a running gag that every week Mycroft is in a different obscure location where he cannot he reached. Mrs. Hudson invites herself in and knows a suspicious amount about dismemberment strategy and blood spatter.

Watson: Hello, and welcome back to the show. The elder Holmes will not be consulting on this case as he is still trapped in the catacombs and we have received word he has dropped his phone in a puddle of Parisian sewage. Rotten luck, truly. In other news, our landlady has begun rendering fat for the creation of lye soap, she claims it is lard but we have not seen her bridge club rival in some time. We will certainly come back to that later but now for the more pressing topic.

Holmes: This week we will be discussing the rash of arsenic poisonings occurring in Whitechapel between 1884 and 1887.

Watson: This week we WILL be discussing the rash of arsenic poisonings occurring in Whitechapel between 1884 and 1887, so help us God.

Watson: How have you been since we last spoke, Lestrade.

Lestrade: Well, somewhat vexed. A woman in my jurisdiction received a pair of human ears in the post and my wife has left m-

Holmes: WAIT WAIT, GO BACK!

Watson: EARS?

Holmes: EARS?!?!?!?

They also have a “Toby Tax” which is an agreement that they’ll post a new picture of Toby every time he barks in the background of the podcast.

Toby is a retired cadaver dog that Holmes rescued and Toby occasionally assists him in cases.

music historian Irene Adler was a guest in one episode (about the sordid personal lives of 19th century European opera stars) and fans will not stop begging them to have her back on

You ever think about how old people have no idea what “survivor bias” is, and take full credit for being excellent out of things where they lucked out?

“Back in my day we didn’t have any of these childhood protective things, we were smart enough not to do stupid shit on our own!” Except your little neighbour, who got the funniest idea at the age of seven, and got his skull pierced when he slipped?

“Back in my day nobody got divorced, we stuck together and fixed our problems!” What about your cousin, who was slowly killed by her husband because she had nowhere to escape him?

“Back in my day nobody had ‘mental problems’, we didn’t whine, we just toughed it out and endured life!” Hey remember that guy you used to work with, who seemed really friendly and normal, and then suddenly hanged himself ‘for no reason’?

“Back in my day we didn’t have any of this ‘gay’ or ‘transgender’ thing.” You did, but your family cut all ties with her before you were born.

You kinda start seeing it in everything they think, if you start looking for it.
