Thoughts on last night’s Major Crimes episode
If you’ve ever thought someone should compare Sharon Raydor to a slice of cake, then today’s your lucky day!
Agreed, agreed, agreed. I yearn for the old Raydor but can’t help but get caught up in the new Sharon. Even Rusty and especially Sanchez continue to be interesting (though I missed Sykes this episode). I wonder if they will pit Sanchez’s methods against Sharon’s rules, though that last year with Brenda seems to imply she’s not completely rigid about them anyway and she does know that it was Sanchez who was Brenda’s biggest co-conspirator during the Terrell Baylor case.
I do want her to stick close to her rules and respect for the system, though. I mean, every single other cop show ever has focused on the unorthodox but effective methods of some troublesome genius detective type and this would be so nice to see from the other side.
And that gif was awesome. 😛

Since her death in 1979, the woman who discovered what the universe is made of has not so much as received a memorial plaque. Her newspaper obituaries do not mention her greatest discovery. […] Every high school student knows that Isaac Newton discovered gravity, that Charles Darwin discovered evolution, and that Albert Einstein discovered the relativity of time. But when it comes to the composition of our universe, the textbooks simply say that the most abundant atom in the universe is hydrogen. And no one ever wonders how we know.

I HAVE FUCKING HAD IT. God damnit people. I’m going to launch a “Female Scientist, Mad or Otherwise, Appreciation Series” section on the Evil Supply blog. MAYBE IT WILL TAKE A COMPANY ROOTED IN DARKNESS AND MISCHIEF TO MAKE SCIENCE GET IT’S SHIT TOGETHER.
Stay tuned.

You want to know something? I’ve studied physics, astrophysics, and astronomy – at the college level. I’m 44. I’ve NEVER HEARD OF THIS WOMAN.
My head is whirling that the HISTORY OF SCIENCE is actually this…no, I’m not. Now that the initial surge of outrage has dwindled, I’m forced to remember that the only woman’s name I can actually recall from ANY of the science classes I’ve EVER taken is Marie Curie.
Part of that is the fault of my memory. But I honestly think that none of my professors or textbooks NAMED THE WOMEN IN THE FIELDS I WAS STUDYING.
Sir, start your blog, and I’ll follow and REBLOG IT CONSTANTLY.
