What a time and space to be nonbinary.

Love the energy of the new doctor who episodes, love Ncuti Gatwa's charisma and the show's willingness to take risks. That being said I'm a bit sad we don't seem to be getting the old character focus of the og RTD seasons. I really like Millie Gibson's performance but on a script level Ruby Sunday doesn't feel like a real person to me. What drives her, what are her flaws, what's her socioeconomic background and how does that inform her behaviour, what are the unlikable parts of her, what does she want most? What's her relationship to her mother like beyond aspirationally and non-specifically positive? How does she dress when she's just sitting around at home? What might she butt heads with the doctor about???

Apparently The Terror producer David Kajganich stated in an Q&A what jobs he thinks the characters would have if they lived in the modern day, and I just…

These are all so fucking funny. Love that one of the show’s producers seemingly has peak Terror brainrot

@carlandrea and i have been discussing how jo fits into the roleswap au i've been messing with, and i ended up doing some quick sketches to try to explain this version of three and jo's dynamic

(while the master doesn't work for unit, they are surveilling this alien who's set up shop in england--or, well, they were attempting to, up until jo went and made friends with him. the brigadier now has a load-bearing nepo baby)

Fuck I hate being an adult. I need a more adult adult to help with the volatile emotional situation.

“What sort of teacher sits round, making tea for a servant? We don’t live in a world like that.” “What sort of world do we live in, then?” says Doctor Smith. (AU: John Smith takes a shine to a conflicted, heartbroken Martha.)

this fic was written in a burst tonight after my watch brought me to human nature/the family of blood & i had to sit through Putting Martha In The Torment Nexus For No Reason. so i, uh, put martha in the torment nexus for no reason? i guess? but exploring this notion felt a little more compelling to me than just sitting with "the doctor isn't in love with martha and never will be" repeated for the 17th time this season.

anyway: martha jones queen of my heart <333 u do deserve the world.

BTAS Batman feels like a normal human who's really trained and skilled and manages to pull off amazing feats

Comics Batman just feels like a superpowered human

can you elaborate on gender with the twelfth doctor... im spinning she/her pronouns for twelve around in my head so much it gives me life. even if you dont feel like/dont have any further elaboration i want to thank you for introducing me to that concept

because she's a girl...? i don't understand the question she's just a girl

[wavebiders]

All these posts talking about how it's kinda gross that fans jumped to stanning the white supremacist society white boy from the episode, and are just assuming he wasn't racist just because he's nice are very based and correct

However, I do think the fact that this is even a discussion is partially a result of the way the episode frames all the racist characters as cartoonishly obnoxious people well before the racism is made explicit, and then kills off the only likable one before his racism even comes up at all

Which, in my opinion, is a far weaker storytelling choice than giving us characters that were actually likable if you failed to pick up on the micro agressions would have been

hiii !! the bracelets you made look so good !! if you don't mind me asking where did you get your beads from? 🥰🥰

Hiiiii!

I got my starter set on Amazon and then I went to Michael's to supplement the colors once I really got into it. I also like these letter blocks the best.

I use this string which you can get at most craft stores. I find that the 1.0 mm weight is sturdiest but can still be used with smaller beads. I also put a dot of jewelry glue on the knot to really make it sturdy.

I'm starting to mix it up more with bead sizes. The ones I linked are called pony beads, but I just ordered some smaller glass seed beads now that I feel confident in my bracelet skills.

I just wanted to be PREPARED cause people had them at Louis' shows last summer and I COVETED them, and you would run into people who were super nice and willing to just give them away. But it's nice to trade and I look down at them and smile and think of the whole fandom experience, you know?
