Rise Up, Oh Heart, For There is Another Battle to Win

Cause of death: Steve cupping Diana’s face in his hands and tearing up when he’s trying to explain how maybe humanity is not inherently good.

Anyway here is an itemised list of the reasons why I’m loving Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries so much:

1. Miss Fisher is obviously a badass but also she’s not young! She’s Of A Certain Age and she still lands the absolute hottest dudes. The hottest dudes. The hottest dudes
   
2. It’s the Carousing Good Guy trope but a lady!
   
3. Her lady-loving doctor friend Mac wears the most wonderful suits and she is amazing and I want to kiss her
   
4. What kind of a name is Phrynie. It’s absurd
5. Super old-school anti-procedural. Like Jonathan Creek but without all the British cringiness. Like Star Trek but instead of space stuff it’s murders and instead of space it’s set in Australia.
6. I didn’t even know Australia had a ‘20s until I watched this show. Upon closer study, it seems plausible
7. Miss Fisher is absolutely ruthless, clever, dangerous, insightful, and willing to go to any length to solve her case - including playing any number of fanciful parts, scaling large buildings, getting herself nearly poisoned to death, and otherwise putting herself in physical and emotional danger - and she does all this without having to sacrifice her love of pretty things. She scales those buildings in beautiful hand-tooled Italian heels. She is always impeccably, gorgeously dressed, and doesn’t ever change that about herself, even when she starts being taken more seriously by the police force or when she is doing serious detective work like interviewing wicked murderers or hunting for the man who killed her sister. Miss Fisher is only ever entirely herself.
8. She adopts strays like no one’s business.
9. There’s something very appealing about the story of a woman who has seen terrible, gruesome things, decided afterwards to dedicate her life entirely to pleasure, and then (almost despite herself) ended up becoming a philanthropist and a den mother and a doer-of-good. I have seen this story many many many (many, many) times from a male perspective, but not so often from a female viewpoint, and Miss Fisher does it without ever begrudging what she’s become. She’s infinitely more graceful than every other good-guy-against-his-better-judgment story I’ve watched or read.
10. THE END

Do you ever just sometimes marvel at the fact that the aesthete culture of the likes of Oscar Wilde has found new life in Millennials? Like there is an established subculture of the “deeply shallow” (to quote @dionysae ) who find real meaning in the look, feel, and texture of our worlds. We have this amazing talent for finding uniform beauty in different vibes and we have no shame in organizing our lives around that vibe pursuing the feelings and values said vibe stirs up in us. Like the “live and die for the aesthetic” meme is funny by it’s not a lie; we are the inheritors of a great tradition of building personalities and commentaries out of sublime, carefully cultivated Looks. Art for art’s sake is back in a Big way folks.

#i think its also a form of escapism in a world that most of us have grown up being surrounded with the ugliness of it all#like our generation grew up surrounded by news and cruelty and very very visual war and conflict and combine that with nihilism#it makes us want to focus on the senses#tangible things and colors and superfluous things that hold no meaning but give us meaning#we seek beauty for survival and it works two ways because people think were just shallow and in that way it becomes a form of rebellion#like fuck yes i am shallow but its whats lets me breathe#its gorgeous escapism

what you said was very sweet and means a lot to me but i am incapable of properly responding in any way besides “thank you so much aaaah” because i do not know how to accurately express the exact level of my gratitude to where you completely understand how much what you said meant to me without me getting even more emotional and looking like a fucking nerd: an autobiography
