Girls looking at all these big, scary fictional men, carrying both physical and emotional scars and trauma, and be like 'I can fix him'.
It's me. I'm girls.

So whenever your disability pride flag is shared on tiktok, ive noticed people asking why do disabled people need a pride flag, or saying that we dont deserve one because we are "co opting" the gay pride movement... and i am honestly at a loss at what to say to them
Okay, then: here's some Disability Pride Talking points for you, when you come upon that assumption:
First: The Disability Rights Movement gained steam in the U.S. at the same time as the Civil Rights Movement was advocating for racial equality, and the Women's Rights movement was advocating for gender equality -- all in the same decade as the Stonewall Riots.
Second: it may seem like Disability Pride Month is "copying" Queer Pride Month, because July comes right after June. But the reason we celebrate Disability Pride Month in July is because that's when The Americans with Disabilities Act was signed: on July 26, 1990. This was the first Disabilities Rights act in the world. It was followed in 1995 by the Disabilities Discrimination Act in the U.K., and in 2019 in Canada.
Third: on April 5, 1977, the (American) Nationwide 504 Sit-in (Wikipedia article) began, to protest the fact that three presidents in a row had been stalling for four years to implement Disability Civil Rights legislation. Disability advocates staged sit-ins in Federal Buildings for the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, New York City, Philadelphia, and Seattle, San Fransisco, and Washington D.C..
The sit-in in Washington D.C. lasted 28 hours. The Sit-in in San Fransisco lasted 25 Days, and remains the longest occupation of a Federal Government building in U.S. History (It was epic). The civil rights group The Black Panthers also helped with logistical support.
The police tried to force the people inside to leave by cutting phone lines, forgetting that there were people who knew American Sign Language both inside the building, and outside, in the crowd, and they relayed messages back and forth through the windows (excuse me while I take a Cackle break).
Finally: Disabled people are human beings, and deserve all the human rights as everyone else. But a lot of people in authority, look at our lives from the outside, decide that we already have a low-quality of life (without actually asking us), and deciding that it wouldn't be so bad if we died. You know, at the start of the COVID-19 outbreak in this country, it was a fairly common policy that if hospitals ran low on ventilators, they'd just take them from disabled people who needed to use them every day? Remember that?
That's why we have to get loud.

i read all of Sherlock Holmes stories and novels in the last couple of weeks and for some reason I took notes of when Watson talks about Holmes' character or manners:
He likes praise, but only from a few:
I had already observed that he was as sensitive to flattery on the score of his art as any girl could be of her beauty.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 25).
A flush of colour sprang to Holmes's pale cheeks, and he bowed to us like the master dramatist who receives the homage of his audience. It was at such moments that for an instant he ceased to be a reasoning machine, and betrayed his human love for admiration and applause. The same singularly proud and reserved nature which turned away with disdain from popular notoriety was capable of being moved to its depths by spontaneous wonder and praise from a friend.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 475).
He does not have many friends/is unsociable
Some friend of yours, perhaps?” “Except yourself I have none,” he answered. “I do not encourage visitors.”
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 179).
I was never a very sociable fellow, Watson, always rather fond of moping in my rooms and working out my own little methods of thought,
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 301).
He wakes up late(?)
He was a late riser, as a rule,
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 211).
He has a considerable ego
I was repelled by the egotism which I had more than once observed to be a strong factor in my friend's singular character.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 257).
He doesn't like to exercise or take walks but eats very less. Also he likes cocaine.
Sherlock Holmes was a man who seldom took exercise for exercise's sake.
...but his diet was usually of the sparest, and his habits were simple to the verge of austerity. Save for the occasional use of cocaine, he had no vices, and he only turned to the drug as a protest against the monotony of existence when cases were scanty and the papers uninteresting.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 283).
He was neat but quite messy, cluttered living space kind of guy
he was the neatest and most methodical of mankind, and although also he affected a certain quiet primness of dress, he was none the less in his personal habits one of the most untidy men that ever drove a fellow-lodger to distraction.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 311).
I find a man who keeps his cigars in the coal-scuttle, his tobacco in the toe end of a Persian slipper, and his unanswered correspondence transfixed by a jack-knife into the very centre of his wooden mantelpiece,
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 311).
with that cat-like love of personal cleanliness which was one of his characteristics,
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 595).
He operated on bursts on energy followed by bouts of doing nothing
I have mentioned somewhere in these incoherent memoirs, the outbursts of passionate energy when he performed the remarkable feats with which his name is associated were followed by reactions of lethargy during which he would lie about with his violin and his books, hardly moving save from the sofa to the table.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 311).
He was not a country mouse
Appreciation of Nature found no place among his many gifts,
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 339).
He didn't like 'women' but was very nice to them irl. Also he didn't like talking about his family.
His aversion to women and his disinclination to form new friendships were both typical of his unemotional character, not more so than his complete suppression of every reference to his own people.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 348).
I may have remarked before that Holmes had, when he liked, a peculiarly ingratiating way with women, and that he very readily established terms of confidence with them.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 493).
..he had a remarkable gentleness and courtesy in his dealings with women. He disliked and distrusted the sex, but he was always a chivalrous opponent.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 758).
He liked being dramatic
"Watson here will tell you that I never can resist a touch of the dramatic."
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 372).
He didn’t suffer fools gladly
Three years had certainly not smoothed the asperities of his temper or his impatience with a less active intelligence than his own.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 390).
He didn’t like to eat when he was working
My friend had no breakfast himself, for it was one of his peculiarities that in his more intense moments he would permit himself no food, and I have known him presume upon his iron strength until he has fainted from pure inanition.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 402).
He could be quite bossy when he needed to be
The strong, masterful personality of Holmes dominated the tragic scene, and all were equally puppets in his hands.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 427).
Partly it came no doubt from his own masterful nature, which loved to dominate and surprise those who were around him. Partly also from his professional caution, which urged him never to take any chances.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 607).
There was a calm assurance of power in Holmes's manner which could not be withstood.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 785).
He did not like to be away from what was familiar/Baker Street/and other miscellaneous neurodivergent traits
My friend's temper had not improved since he had been deprived of the congenial surroundings of Baker Street. Without his scrap-books, his chemicals, and his homely untidiness, he was an uncomfortable man.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 477).
Without having a tinge of cruelty in his singular composition, he was undoubtedly callous from long over-stimulation.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 623).
“I hate to have my things touched, Watson. You know that I hate it."
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 760).
He had an odd sense of humour
Holmes's ideas of humour are strange and occasionally offensive,
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 768).
He relapsed at once into the half-humorous, half-cynical vein which was his habitual attitude to those about him.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 784).
Miscellaneous
He had an almost hypnotic power of soothing when he wished.
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 732).
That cold, incisive, ironical voice could belong to but one man in all the world. “Holmes!” I cried—“Holmes!”
Conan Doyle, Arthur. The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Tales of a Consulting Detective (p. 595).

Oh, you- ...you didn't want a list of songs that remind me of Quinn/Quinn and Darlin'? Oh...
Well that sucks bc I'm doin it anyway ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ [part 1] ((shutout to @moonandstarlightsposts for telling me to "just do it" when I told them I wasn't sure I should))
This next one is more from how I interpret what type of relationship Quinn had with Darlin', but also it's just a banger of a song and you should deffo go listen
This one just screams it to me tbh (back when things seemed to still he good yk?):

this has nothing to do with Ted lasso but it needs to be said because I'm currently so mad
IT IS NOT BABYSITTING IF YOU ARE LOOKING AFTER YOUR OWN CHILD
I work in a pub at the moment and it drives me UP THE WALL to hear fathers describe taking care of their children as 'babysitting for my wife'. My dad literally used to say this to my mum and I actually cannot stand that people think it's acceptable to say shit like this
YOUR 'WIFE' or THE 'MOTHER OF YOUR CHILDREN' IS HER OWN GOD DAMN PERSON. SHE HAS A NAME AND PERSONALITY AND LIFE!! TAKE SOME RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR OFFSPRING
