RTD writing Empire of Death and realising he's got like a minute left to fill but hasn't adressed Mrs Flood at all:

if mrs flood doesn’t turn out to be the most complex, narrative-changing character in doctor who, i’ll riot.

The rtd2 era thus far has been at it's core about the immense power of middle-aged/old women.

I think the Grojband fandom should do a Grojband Reanimated Multi-Animator Project

Which episode would be reanimated tho?

Like I REALLY get why people have a certain read of the Feanorian wives but also:

A) it's so intensely interesting to me when people are quasi-normal in peacetime but the moment stress is placed upon a relationship their priorities are really fucking clear, and I love to think the famed Feanorian ruthlessness is something that freaks out quite a few of the wives that haven't fully drunk the kool-aid.

B) when you have a little more distance from a situation/trauma you're more likely to be rational about AND to think someone who's closer to the trauma is acting irrationally. Which is literally the whole of the Feanorian/Fingolfinian dynamic in a nutshell: everyone is acting irrationally! Everyone has centuries if not millennia worth of alliances and agreements and history that inform their next approach to a problem! But if you're standing outside of that thicket you're left wondering: what the actual fuck is wrong with these people.

C) a bit more of a meta textual point but the point of the Feanorians is that they're alone. They drive off everyone over the course of the Silm. They break their oaths and they break the laws and they break all bounds of morality. They are left by the end of the First Age with only two of a once proud family: no servants left, no friends, no family, just Maedhros and Maglor. And having those warning signs be there from the beginning? Fantastic. The wives leave, following Nerdanel, and the sons leave, following Feanor. It's the circle of life (abuse) baby!

D) toying with the idea of women as the torchbearers of cultural heritage is in fact an interesting tension: and I just flat out think these women saying that's it we can't and don't want to participate in this farce (because we know it's a farce and a tragedy and how it will end) fucks really hard! They say No and Not like this and Even if I thought you were right I do not think it is worth it. All of which are worthwhile views to be had, and, perhaps more importantly, views that aren't discussed or even mentioned in the actual books.

Dude, I literally roll my eyes and cringe a bit when this site squeaks about “ZOMFGGGG THE MCU IS JUST LIKE THE COMICS!!!” And like, it’s not just with Loki either. It’s any modern MCU film this site dances in the street over and celebrates for being “JuSt lIkE tHe CoMiCs!!1!1” The MCU has flooded all the comic tags. I can’t look up any comic tag anymore without the flooding. My God, it’s annoying. It’s annoying as hell.

MCU fans- I beg of you. I know you think the modern phases are “more comic accurate and an improvement” (They’re not comic accurate but go off…) But pleeaasssee keep the MCU out of the comic tag. You guys have your own tags.

Pathfinders in Space (ABC, 1960)

"Now, the remainder of us have fifteen hours of oxygen left. That leaves fifteen hours in which to complete our research here."

"Well, what's the good of all that if you can't come back with it?"

"The moon never destroys her treasures, Henderson. We shall leave a record and it'll be preserved in the vacuum of the caves. And the future expeditions you mentioned, they will find it."
