Doctor Who - Fourteenth and Tenth Doctor parallels (some of the ones that get to me the most)

...

Bonus: Phil Collinson, David Tennant, and Russell T. Davies doing in-vision commentaries for 2023's The Giggle and 2006's New Earth

HEY GUYS LOOK AT THIS

Any ideas? I feel like I gotta participate and give feedback, but I don't really feel ready to be an admin and I have no existing ideas for my own community.

The only thing I can think of rn is a community version of dwparallels, my poor dear sideblog I repeatedly failed to maintain all by myself, but idk if that would work as a community: they seem to be more about hanging out semi-privately with a group of like-minded people than about showcasing posts on a specific topic.

I was right. You're not the Doctor. You can't ever be. You're just a copy.

Doctor Who parallels - The Parting of the Ways / The Time of the Doctor

Idea: a Tumblr for a long serialized canon that reblogs posts by episode/chapter/etc. without including content from the future seasons, allowing the viewer/reader to look up the posts about the episode they just watched without the fear of spoilers. For example, a gifset of scenes from the episodes 1x01 and 1x13 would be tagged only as #1x13.

(Inspired by Dracula Daily, I guess, even though I noticed the connection only after typing the above.)

Features:

Very simple tag system, just the episode number, or name when it’s less ambiguous like in the case of Christmas specials (the main reason I could never get the poor dwparallels off the ground was because the tag system inherently requires a lot of work).

Custom homepage. Override Tumblr’s default list of latest posts (because that would immediately show spoilers to the visitor, defeating the purpose) with an intro text and a manually created list of tags in the viewing order. The intro text should warn the viewers-in-progress not to follow the blog, or they’ll get spoilers delivered to their dashboard, also contrary to the purpose.

Since, as far as I know, you can’t insert custom links into pages for specific tags, you’ll need to manually make a post with the “prev episode tag”/”next episode tag” links for every tag. I.e. you make a post tagged #2x02 and put the links to /tagged/2x01/chrono and /tagged/2x03/chrono inside.

I'd known we were going to have a royal visit, I'd have put the kettle on.

The new season inspired me to resurrect @dwparallels, so over the last couple of days I’ve been busy updating its theme — it was created (not by me) in 2014 and a lot changed since then!

Change log:

both 500px and 540px photosets can now be displayed without resizing gifs (using the blessed Photosets.css)

the theme is now responsive

sidebar now uses flexbox and turns into a sticky header if the viewport becomes too narrow to fit it

added info about the current search to sidebar on /tagged/ and /search/ pages

fixed the layout of the search page when no results are found

improved the page title

updated the “about” page, included a link into the mobile description

separated the descriptions for the mobile view and the desktop sidebar

switched to modern tag encoding

fixed image size within the reblog chain

increased font size

improved notes readability

There might be some more work to be done: I have not even tried to check how NPF posts will look in this theme, and they’re a giant headache on their own. But otherwise I feel satisfied! Now for the hard part: properly tag all the posts I mean to reblog there...

This damn episode actually made me want to resurrect dwparallels but it's sooo much work (that nobody actually needs)
