Someone (or me) needs to make a compilation of weird graphic for that appears every time something techy happens on Blake’s 7.

Watching Blake's 7 and suddenly everyone's second favourite classic Doctor shows up. Is there a part where Colin Baker doesn't chew scenery in every shot? I haven't found it and I don't think I want to

The original Doctor Whos are now all available on the British BBC iPlayer. This is “Doctor Who and the Robots of Death.”

Helliconia Spring: Classic Sci-fi Novel Review

Author: Brian W. Aldiss Publisher: Gollancz (my copy, in Helliconia) Country: UK Year: 1982 Planetary Romances are a thing well done by now, and even by ’82, we’d seen people try it. The grandaddy of it, springing to mind, is Herbert’s Dune novels, and the influence of Edgar Rice Burrough’s Barsoom books, also on the subgenre, can’t be underestimated. Neither, it must be said, can the epic…

Just a quick sidenote to say I am also accepting Blake's 7 prompts because this is one of my favourite TV shows ever. If you're new to my works, I have a fair share of dark romance fics, mature and explicit works, a history of filling kink meme requests, writing headcanons/imagines/drabble fills, several multi-chapter works if a prompt inspires me so, and a masterlist at the top of my page that shows you there's little I will not write. I haven't written for Blake's 7 yet (not posted online anyway), but this fandom keeps tickling me. Also, I make a sport out of writing Reader Inserts, so don't be shy to ask for a reader x character tale. I love such requests the most 💗

[do-u-know-this-autisticcharacter]

Do you know a character you like or love that is autistic or you believe is autistic, even if the show/author etc hasn't actually said so.

We have no banned characters. You can submit characters from any media and any genre:

~ Books ~ Comedy ~ Horror movies ~ Anime and Manga ~ Marvel or DC ~ Foreign/non English TV/media ~ Computer/console games ~ Silent films ~ Indie films ~ media from your childhood ~ Youtube Characters ~ Sci Fi etc ~

Please note, you MUST include evidence or proof or we won't accept the submission. We don't require much evidence, but there needs to something other than "just vibes" or "their whole family is autistic" (we don't know the family my friend).

Proof we do accept include - obsessive tendencies, has no social boundaries, nonverbal communication or delayed language development etc. Or even if creator of said character said so in a social media post etc.

We will only accept submissions through the submission form.

If you submit via Tumblr ask, it will be deleted. The only exception are posts submitted through the form that we require more evidence for.

The spreadsheet of submitted characters is here.

More about us below the cut!

Mod Pixie (she/they): I'm 35 and have been on Tumblr since minimally 2012, so I have Seen Some Things™️.

I love most things nerd and feel like Tumblr is particularly suited to nerddom.

I was diagnosed autistic and ADHD at 33, though I always knew I didn't quite fit in and suspected ADHD for a while. I was always just considered slightly odd, in an Anne of Green Gables way.

Fiction has always been my escape and once Tumblr introduced polls and I found the blogs mentioned, I thought someone should do the same for autistic characters! Full disclosure, it seems someone had the same idea and created a blog, but it never took off.

If you'd like to follow my main blog, please follow @pixiemusing 😄

Mod Sunflower (she/her): Hello there! You can call me Sunflower if you wish. I prefer to remain anonymous on this blog and on @aretheybisexual, but I am the co admin here/there/everywhere. I go by she/her pronouns, 30+, bisexual and am on an NHS waiting list to be diagnosed for autism (2 years and counting). I live in the GMT timezone. Tumblr veteran since 2010 roughly.

Blog mechanics: Feel free to submit ANY character you see as autistic. If you feel the need to clarify whether they are "good" or "bad" rep, feel free in the form! We will accept characters who are "problematic" or from problematic media. We will make sure to tag the media for every character.

I (Mod Pixie) will also sometimes make comment about the submissions well before they are posted. These will be tagged as Pixie Speaks, along with the character and media. The Pixie Speaks tag will also be used for general musings. Just Blog Things will be used for announcements and blog maintenance.

We hope you enjoy and if you have any questions, please DM! Please note that all submissions must be through the Google Form.

For fandoms with more than 2 submissions in a row, the submissions will be broken up with other fandom submissions in between. They may, depending on the number of submissions, be broken up across several days, which may or may not be successive. Polls run for a week.

Thanks again for stopping by!

Just for more awareness:

Finally had the chance to bingewatch the entirety of Red Dward the past week and a half while attempting to stay sane. With the anxiety and depression of being unemployed and having no social life this show gripped us tight. It's so entertaining and funny. So looking forward to the new episodes coming soon. It's so hard to pick a fav (only just Rimmer). This painting took over 3 days and I hope you appreciate it just as much as this silly little show has become an addiction. Chris Barrie, Craig charles, Robert Lewellyn and Danny John Jules are all hilarious so please watch it if you haven't!.

This is a wonder show you guys here on tumblr should totally consider watching! I 💗 Torchwood

(Sorry for requesting again, didn't read the rules right!)

Could I request a 10th Doctor (doctor who) board with a natural colour scheme?
