Hello everyone! The Watsonian is looking for art, fic, poetry, essays, reviews, and anything else! Due date for interest is the end of this week. Actual content is due In mid September. We celebrate all Watsons!

@gayguycandleco.bsky.social , I woke to a crash and found my Republicans Can’t Use My Bathroom candle shattered, far from its window placement. At first, I thought it was poltergeist Lyndsey Graham/Mitch McConnell, but upon further examination, I’m deeply concerned that my cat may be Republican.

Yeah this is the closest I’ve seen to what concerns me. It’s interesting that when I have issues with a series, it’s on a deeply philosophical level where I feel like the creators and I have a different world view. Like the “ forgive abuse” theme that permeated the last season of BBC Sherlock.

The crux of my issues with the ending.. not even about Ineffables or their love story. But about trauma, oppressive systems, and how we escape them 1/5 #goodomens #goodomensspoilers #goodomens3 #gos3spoilers www.tumblr.com/inhonoredglo...

Hello John Watson Fans!!! I am looking for submissions to the upcoming issue of The Watsonian. We accept art, stories, poems, analysis, reviews, and anything else you can think of related to Dr John Watson ( and that other guy… the tall one). Please spread the word! Deadline is March 1 but flexible.

I am doing a punk portrayal of a character for a medical training simulation. I have been told I can do any variety of Punk/Goth/Grunge so long as I am obnoxious, aloof, and intimidating to normies. Still deciding if I want my lips natural, black, or purple. I did order a ton of fake piercings.

Hello! Roadrunner darting across the highway here! Beep Beep.

Introduce yourself with what almost killed you. Hi, I’m a burst appendix at sleep-away camp.

I really need to go to a coffeshop and just write. Someone make me do this. Apparently I cannot simply harness free will.

And to think I used to find Manifest Destiny to be kinda funny….

You know what? I have decided to come over here and speak against bots (and people) who put those gibberish messages or spam AO3 comments. It is probably what got me banned from That Other Place, but tbh I dont know why I was banned yet

Trying to get people to give a fuck about how unethical and bad for everything AI is makes me feel insane the way that trying to convince people to test and wear a fucking mask so I wasn’t stuck in a basement for four years made me feel insane
