The other day I was talking to my boyfriend about depression; about how hard it is to pull yourself out of it, but that you’re always fighting. He gave me a look and said, “You don’t seem like you’re fighting when you’re in bed.” 

He didn’t mean it the way it sounds. We all know the problem with explaining emotional and mental illnesses is that it’s all internal. People don’t see the struggle, so they assume it’s not really there. So, I came up with an analogy that I think might explain a bit better: 

Imagine a tiny, 90lb nerd with glasses standing on a professional football field. He’s looking around, minding his own business, when WHAM! A four-hundred-pound linebacker SLAMS into him, crushing that nerd into the ground. And then the linebacker, finding the ground slightly more cushy than usual, decides to take a nap. 

The nerd can’t breathe. Can’t move, save for his flailing arms at either side. He hits the linebacker, pushes at him, tries to scream, but only chokes. He’s stuck, and no amount of fighting can alert the sleeping bear to his turmoil. 

Finally, after what seems like an eternity, the linebacker awakens and sits up to discover the crushed little man beneath him. “Sorry man, I didn’t see you there. My bad. You alright?” 

“Yeah. I’m alright.”

This is literally the coolest thing I've ever seen. Fuck yeah editing. 

Here it is! The behind the scenes making of that ridiculously perfect (but fake) DW50th trailer! This is freakin amazing!!

My Meeting with Gaston when I Disneybounded as him

Gaston: *gives curious look and moves finger up and down* This.

Me: I'm dressed as you today.

Gaston: This. I approve.

Me: *walks over for picture and gives hug*

Gaston: You know, red is only my second favourite color.

Me: Oh really? What's your first?

Gaston: Reflective. That way I can see myself. Just like a mirror. Mirrors love me, though I'm sure you know that.

Me: Of course. I am you today.

Gaston: *gives approving nod*

We pose for our pictures. I give him another hug.

Gaston: *Waves finger again and gives me a thumbs up* You can go sit in my chair. I like you.

Me: *thanks him and can't help smiling like an idiot as I leave*

Me: Gaston and I are best friends now. We would be married cuz he would marry himself and I am him today so...

My friend: *shakes head and pats shoulder* Whatever you say.

Although I don't agree ENTIRELY with this, I do fully believe Rose is the creation of Clara...

AND! (SPOILERS!)

In the trailer for next week's episode they used "Rose is in Peril" from the episode BAD WOLF... a piece that they have NEVER repeated in an episode... just saying.

The Bad Wolfed Clara Theory

We know Oswin was a Dalek…

And we assume she died…

But what if she didn’t? What if she lived and eventually went insane and became the Dalek Emperor? The one at the Game Station.

And then Rose Bad Wolfed her ass.

But because she was Rose…

Doctor Who fans - remember “The Impossible Planet?” While I adore that episode, it’s certainly not because of its accurate portrayal of the laws of physics. It is actually completely possible to orbit a black hole since black holes still follow the same laws of gravity as any other massive object....

Yes, ladies and gents, that would be me and my Doctor Dorian Holmes. :D

Photos from a Sherlock cosplay photoshoot I did today. All photos and designs are by the wonderful Annie Janko. I’m Sherlock, and the lovely Irene Adler next to me is Candy Shaped Heart.
