"I rang [Martin], and I said, “You’ve been nominated in the BAFTA again!” He went, “Is Andrew in the category?” and I went, “Yes!” He went, “Fuck!"

Dunno why but right now I imagine Martin sitting in front of his Mac searching for BAFTA livestreams to get some glimpses of Amanda.

I watched Andrew Scott’s acceptance speech on YouTube (America Y U No Have BAFTA Awards program?!), and I’ll search more tomorrow but I was looking for her and I saw Lara Pulver, so there is hope! But seriously I was just like this while watching it

And the idea that Martin (because we know he knows how to get on Tumblr!) is looking through the tags is a wonderful notion. So wonderful I had to reblog.

I don’t know if the BAFTAs are still going on, cause I’m here and all, but if they are: enjoy them!

"Lara Pulver (about Irene Adler being gay) : It’s so weird because I didn’t like to label her. Yes, she says, “I’m gay.” But what is she actually saying? “I meet people and I fall in love with them and they happen to be of the same sex?” I don’t know. I’ve literally just seen the interview with Barack Obama backing gay marriage and I’m thinking, we’re in 2012, what’s the big deal? People fall in love and I think more harm is done from suppressing your true identity than being given the freedom to just be. So I never felt like I was hugely flying the flag for gay rights or trying to be this iconic gay figure in any way because what’s being gay? It’s just a label, isn’t it? Because, at the end of the day, I think she had feelings for Sherlock. So then people say, “Well, so she’s obviously not gay. She must be bisexual.” But actually, let’s not label this. Let’s just know that human beings fall for other human beings. I think I’m a bit of an anti-labellist, if there’s such a phrase."

I just love this sentence “Let’s just know that human beings fall for other human beings.”

That’s it. That’s just it. I really think it’s that simple.

This really spoke to me, because a few weeks ago, (after a dream where such an occasion arose), my mom expressed her concerns over me going to college and getting involved with a professor. And she kind of wanted me to promise her that I wouldn’t, and I guess I sort of did, but I felt bad–because I know myself. And I know that I just am attracted to who I am attracted to. I can’t help it when it happens. It doesn’t matter the race, age, or gender.

All I can do is hope that they like me back the same way.
