Just saw a tiktok comment say that Neteyam got everything stolen from him, including his last breath. And I had to sit in silence for a bit. Because wow.

Live blogging my Election Pamphlet!

I will not be live blogging the entire pamphlet, just the interesting information about ranked choice voting, presidential candidates' statements, and my gut feeling based on that content alone.

These pages just go over important information on how to use ranked choice voting and how it eliminates spoiler votes. Basically pick a candidate for every preference position and don't double up on any position. Some user error is fault tolerant.

I love ranked choice voting because it allows voters to vote according to their good conscious without throwing their vote away on a doomed candidate. See my post on ranked choice voting for more information:

The fact that it's been several days since I binged Id: Invaded and I'm still thinking about it nearly non-stop means I probably have to accept that...yeah, this is one of those animes I'm never going to be normal about again.

Ranking New Who Villains

When you go onto google and type in "top Doctor who monsters", you get given a handy little list. Now, obviously there is a lot more than just monsters/villains on this list in doctor who, but for the sake of trying to keep this blog post a bit shorter, I am only going to be ranking the ones on this google list. I'm going to remove a couple of them as well as they are old who villains. So now that's established, let's begin!

Number 21: The Great Intelligence

What a waste of Sir Ian McKellen. So the Great Intelligence starts out as a dome full of snow, making evil snowmen in New Who. Then it moves on to making whisper men and taking the Doctor to Trenzalor. Safe to say I am not impressed.

Number 20: Cybermen

A classic villain, which did honestly used to scare me as a child. Then they made it all sleek looking and it just didn't read as scary any more. They made a wooden Cyberman... This villain is just over used now and if they aren't going to do anything new with it then they should just stop bringing it back- however I do like the cyberman design for Bill.

Number 19: The Autons

A great way to revive a show. As a child I was scared of shop window dummies thanks to these creatures. Looking at it now though, that bin scene was a bit crazy wasn't it? Also... plastic Mickey. Either way though, these creatures still give me the willies a little bit.

Number 18: Clockwork Droids

Unique and imaginative. They were never scary in any way to me, but the episode they are in is a great one. The way they drive the plot forward works wonders. I'm so glad they never brought them back- oh wait... they brought them back for Capaldi's first episode and sort of ruined them...

Number 17: Ice Warriors

Another Classic who creature brought back and revived. I have always loved the design for Ice Warriors, and I love that they are from somewhere as simple as Mars instead of having to create a new planet for them. But I don't remember what happened in the Ice Warrior episodes very well for New Who.

Number 16: Davros

All the creatures and villains on this list have some merit, and Davros is no exception for that. When he was revived for The Stolen Earth and Journey's End, I got chills. And I still cringe a bit when he opens up his top to show where he made the new Daleks from. But I think they ruined him a little bit in Capaldi's episodes.

Number 15: Zygons

It was interesting when Doctor who brought these creatures back, because they are so fun. Shape shifting aliens give you a lot of wiggle room to play around with, and I think they had fun with them.

Number 14: Slitheen

I could argue that the Slitheen are below Zygons, but frankly I just enjoy them a little bit more. Call me childish, but fart humor is funny on occasion. Plus Boom Town is a great and underrated episode. The Slitheen kind of steals the show there.

Number 13: The Beast

The Beast, or Satan. Terrfying. The idea that the Doctor is facing off against the actual Devil is a great concept, plus this episode gives Rose a chance to shine as a companion. If you have read my previous posts you know I don't like her very much, so her impressing me in this episode says a lot.

Number 12: Judoon

Space Rhinos. Space police rhinos. They don't really do very much but they are just fun. We all know that the old lady was the scary one in Smith and Jones. But they are in all leather like some kind of biker gang, and use white board markers to show that people are human. Its just classic Doctor who... Lets ignore Fugative of the Jadoon.

Number 11: Sontarans

New who does like to bring back its classic villains. They then like to milk said villains if they do well. The Sontaran Stratagem and the Poison sky are great episodes and the Sontarans are brought back in a great way.

Number 10: The Master

Each actor who plays the Master, brings something new to the role. And the character is fun... and hungry.

Number 9: The flood

Terrifying. No notes.

Number 8: Midnight Entity

I feel like I have to start justifying why I like these creatures over others. The midnight entity is scary because you never actually see it. It causes so much chaos- but most of it is just humans being scared.

Number 7: The silence

A creature that you forget as soon as you turn your back could have been incredible- and it was. It was fun the way they tied it into the moon landing as well. I enjoy the slenderman vibes they have.

Number 6: Gas Mask Zombies

Are you my mummy? The first actually scary episode of New who. Also the scene where the gas mask comes out of that doctor's mouth and eyes lives rent free in my head.

Number 5: Daleks

They are classic. They are iconic. They are a little bit over used and that is why they are not higher up in the list- but given that theyve been around since the 1960s they must be doing something right.

Number 4: Silurian

I love the design of these creatures. I love their stories, and Madam Vastra is one of my favourite New Who characters.

Number 3: The Ood

Making it into the top 3 spot for me means 1 of 2 things. 1) I love the creature and everything theyve done with it or 2) it is just a terrifying villain. With the Ood it's both. I both love them and are scared of them. Even Nephew was scary. And the scene where the guy turns into an ood- so unsettling. I love it.

Number 2: The Weeping Angels

I bet a few people reading this was wondering where they would turn up. I love them, especially when they were first introduced in Blink. The idea of them snapping your neck was offputting for me at first but I still don't think you can go too far wrong with stone statues. I even liked when they turned the Doctor into an angel.

Number 1: The Vashta Nerada

This creature had me counting my shadows and freaking out when I had 2. I'm glad they haven't returned since the Library because what we were given was perfection.

Hey, Who turned out the lights?!

Faygo: Grape (Review)

note: Myles didn't get around to buying this flavour last week, so he'll be editing this tomorrow to include his opinions!

(our ratings & experiences)

Flavour Accuracy

Myles: 20/20 Roni: 19/20 Average Rating: 19.5/20

It's pretty much the perfect combination of that sickly sweet artificial grape flavour and the flavour of actual grape juice. Even if I were evaluating the accuracy of the 'grape'-ness of either definition, I think it'd score high on both. Only reason I'm not giving it a perfect score is because it tastes just barely a bit too sweet.

Now THIS is what Faygo should taste like. Unlike all the other Faygo flavors reviewed so far (which all taste like an elephant's piss overloaded with sugar), this drink precisely simulates the taste of grapes while still tasting the way a soda should. It's almost as if the grapes that were used to make the natural and artificial flavoring of this drink came from Dionysus himself.

Health Concern

Myles: 10/20 Roni: 3/20 Average Rating: 6.5/20

It tastes pretty fine in terms of 'is this killing me', but after checking the back of the bottle... Wow. Faygo had to count this bottle as 2 servings instead of one because the sugar content is 164% of the recommended daily sugar value. 164% isn't even real. How did we accidentally go from the lowest sugar content in the first week to an absurdly high one??? And we started on cotton candy?! The only reason this isn't at 1 again is because my body felt completely fine after drinking the whole bottle.

I probably should be concerned since this is an American drink with the sugar content and all the artificial elements to match, but I guess it's the flavor of the beverage that dispells most of my concerns since it actually tastes good. Then again, that sugar content of 82 grams does seem pretty concerning...

Color Appeal

Myles: 12/20 Roni: 13/20 Average Rating: 12.5/20

Looks pitch black at first glance, but it's actually a dark grey-purple colour that you can really only see if you shake the bottle. I like purple, but I feel pretty average about this drink's colour. It matches the flavour well and it's certainly not unappealing, but I feel like they could've done better with it. Maybe a slightly more vibrant purple would bring up my score for this.

If I'm being honest, the colors of the label are more appealing to me than the color of the actual drink. But it's this near pitch-black color with purple tones here and there that reminds me of Ribena so it's all good with me.

Overall Enjoyment

Myles: 20/20 Roni: 18/20 Average Rating: 19/20

It's pretty good! If I hadn't checked the back, I feel like my enjoyment would be a 19 or 20 out of 20. They hit all the marks with this flavour and the drink had an interesting enough flavour profile that I didn't get sick of the taste. This is a good time to mention that neither Myles nor I are affected by sugar (i.e., we don't get 'sugar highs' or 'sugar crashes'), so that factor isn't involved in any of our rankings.

Unless there is another flavor out there that can make me change my mind, this is the best Faygo flavor out there in my eyes. If it's there on the drink shelf at EzyMart, I'm taking it. It makes me wish that the other flavors were this accurate to their name.

Re-drinkability

Myles: 20/20 Roni: 17/20 Average Rating: 18.5/20

The only reason my score is knocked down is because of the sugar content written on the back of this thing. I actually really like the drink as-is, and I'd get it pretty often if it wasn't so detrimental to my health! Same feeling as Pineapple, but better. Another side note is that this flavour is sold out everywhere in our main city except for one store location. Could be a sign that Grape Faygo is actually good!

Would I drink this again? Absolutely. This isn't even the first time I've had this particular flavor before. I chose this flavor for this review knowing it would be a relief from the tongue-incinerating experiences that were cotton candy and pineapple. I can only hope the other flavors that we are yet to review in the future are as enjoyable as this.

Summary

Myles’ Rating: 82/100 Roni’s Rating: 70/100 Average Rating: 76/100
