David Tennant in 2019:

David Tennant 2024: stars in a music video commercial for a whiskey company’s 200th anniversary

Video clip:

[Transcript of the last 30 seconds of this clip, which started with someone asking David Tennant for a recommendation for single malt scotch.

David: I genuinely have got nothing. [to Freema] Do you ever drink single malt scotch?

Freema: I mean technically yeah. I mean technically I don’t know if it’s a single malt though. Yeah I do.

David: I genuinely don’t. I’ve no idea. The only whiskey I drink is Jack Daniel’s. It doesn’t count.

Freema: No

David: I’m a very bad Scotsman.

Freema: I would go for Glenlivet.

End transcript]

Context: I kept the earlier part of the clip in because the person specifically asked David, who had been getting a lot of the questions, but Freema was the one who actually had an answer. And they both had also been getting a lot of “what’s your favorite…” questions and David had been answering that he couldn’t pick one or saying “all of them”😅😂

so much happened in this whole episode but i’m still on fig infiltrating ruben’s dream, making it look like the place where his friend was murdered, and then disguising herself as kipperlilly & repeatedly saying different variants of “somebody needs to take the fall for this, and it’s not going to be me. it’s going to be you.” while adaine as the elven oracle shows up next to her. can you imagine waking up from that, the idea of a horrible truth being pinned on you by your friend to save her own skin while the personification of fate and destiny stands there, almost as a promise that this is GOING to happen to you. we don’t even know if this kid is guilty. my god.

irt the lrb what would you say if i said liam & noel spent new years 2023 together in paris

what would you say if i said liam bought the house in france (the one with noel's name carved into the walls) in march 2023 and that month noel talked about wanting to spend several months in paris

which could mean nothing

its really nice living my life these days actually, i love not identifying with binary gender, i love transitioning using highways "meant" for binary dysphoric trans people (not by rule but by exclusion of who doctors and psychs tend to gatekeep from hrt and surgeries) despite not really identifying my dysphoria until i started transitioning, i love lying to doctors and psychs, i love having conflicting parts of my gender, i love not feeling a need to identify as the gender of convenience i use for jobs and perusing society, i love not feeling a need to bind myself to a single identity out of many i use in public, i love tethering a line in many aspects of my life that many claim is both impossible and unrealistic

I am thinking about cutting my hair really short and getting bangs....

I can't tell if this is a good decision or one done out of a desperation for change....

I feel like I want so self-combust. I know the past five years (it's REALLy going to be FIVE years?) have been "meh" here in Tumblr. And every single big social media platform is going through this weird thing where they REALLY want to "get bigger and increase their profits" with throwing part of their userbases down the bus.

I am here questioning myself why sudden talks about Tumblr going down, until I saw it with my eyes that the support staff (which was already smaller, being a low priority to their owners) is going to get cut down much more to the point of "maybe being supported by a skeleton crew" until it naturally goes down. And then I felt like the thing staff shared months ago about their "new plans" for the website all suddenly made sense all along.

We all knew it, I guess. We all knew Tumblr wasn't a high priority website to their owners (especially after two atrocious sales) and maybe making changes for newer users is what would make it even more profitable. But this news seems like it's basically sealing it: cutting down much more to their support staff is probably because they do NOT know what to do with the website anymore. And, maybe the "expiration date" isn't as far as it was when the nsfw ban happened. That one day in December 2018.

The problem, again, is... every other big social media website is having their own issues as well. I know there have been efforts to replicate the experiences that Twitter or Tumblr had before all their own fucked-ups, but they are still in their infancies. Not all options are good, some are still in their invited-only beta states, and basically it sucks that all the options out there to move are bad, lmao (regarding to the tastes of each one, very subjective and all that).

Ahhh... what a bitter drink this all is.

Maybe I can install that one python Tumbr back-up thing I used years ago to back up my blog... and save everything I have posted in the past 5 years (as long as I still have access to my data from those... 8 years? in my work laptop... the one I haven't really turned on since last year because a/c charger and battery issues :////. Yay.)

I don't want to move to other social media sites anymore. I want to stay in peace in maybe one for another 10 years until I vanish or smth. I'm so freaking tired. And with all the fuckery in Twitter since last year, I don't know anymore.

(I don't want to sound pessimist, perhaps some miracle happens in the way. Maybe it's not the end yet. But it makes you think and I'm already tired of all of this. I always say that social media was a mistake. In the long term. Everywhere kinda sucks these days and the few attempts to make something new that may replicate the same experience I had since 2008 or 2010 are still in those early stages of development... some bad, some good)

Btw, this is that python thing I used for the tumblr back up thing I went with December 2018: tumblr-utils.
