Someone will be like “this media being popular and the way it is popular says a lot about what our society values” and immediately 400 people will start freaking out and saying “so you think people who like this thing are bad? So you think I should kill myself?” because any form of media analysis on the internet is automatically seen as a call to either cancel or venerate something

AITA for accidentally kidnapping my best friend after making her daughter transgender?
I (?M-ish) was recently reunited with my best friend (53F) after many years apart. I'm kind of a free spirit and like to travel while living out of my car. She came with me for a bit (PURELY PLATONIC), but we got to a point where I realized we were so mixed up in each other it would kill us and we had to part ways. I kind of assumed she forgot about me and kept traveling and doing my thing. During that time apart I had a bit of a gender crisis and spent a few years living as a woman, which was an amazing experience but I ended up identifying with masculinity again anyway, so I looked pretty much the same as when we separated.
So I accidentally ended up back in her orbit and learned that, while we weren't talking, she ended up settling down and raising a family, including a lovely daughter (15F-ish). Her daughter is trans, which I only mention because it's relevant to the story. It turns out that my gender fuckery may have rubbed off on my friend a little, because her daughter is EERILY similar to me and even chose a name for herself from my past. My friend was not super educated on gender stuff before we met so its likely her daughter wouldn't have realized who she was if her mother and I hadn't codependently merged into the same person for a bit on our travels. Her whole family is super supportive but her grandmother (my friend's mother) kind of blames me both for putting her daughter's life at risk during our travels and getting her granddaughter bullied. She thinks if I hadn't been involved, her granddaughter wouldn't have realized who she was until she was in a more accepting place in life I guess? She also blames me because my friend donated a TON of money to charity in my name and the whole family is now struggling financially.
Anyway, we reunited and it ended up being super sweet. We decided to go for one last mini adventure in my car/house and visit her grandfather who I also used to be close with. She and her family made me swear up and down that we were JUST going to his house and nowhere else, but then she spilled some coffee on the console and we dematerialized to a random point in spacetime :/

Remember when the 11th doctor invited all his friends to watch him get shot & burn his body in the middle of the desert and then later invited his younger self so his friends would have to just pretend nothing happened while mourning for someone standing right in front of them. He was genuinely unwell for that
#SICK AND TWISTEDDDD#it was awesome tho. love his insane perception of friendship yay yippee#warlock wartalks

what i think REALLY works about dot and bubble is it plays with the genre conventions of doctor who itself. We've seen doctor lite episodes like this, we know how they work. There's person who needs to be saved who gets indirect help from the doctor, maybe they're flawed and learn a lesson at the end, maybe they're part of some flawed society that is just kind of set dressing or ends up being torn down at the end without examination. About halfway through the episode I was ready to brush this off as a fun but predictable classic rtd ep that wasn't really anything special. Then from the the betrayal of ricky September on its like watching a house of cards that has been built the entire episode without us noticing collapse into a perfect stack
“Oh well of course you could see them being racist the whole time” the thing is sometimes doctor who is just like that. RTD EPISODES have historically just been like that, either in that they are microagressions in themselves or have bigoted characters/worlds that go unexamined. And I think this episode performed an absolutely insane self aware slight of hand that relies on both you and the writers knowing that doctor who and sci fi in general has a racism problem. The ending recontextualizes things in the episode you may initially have brushed off as an unfortunate BBC or science fiction moment (all white cast, manifest destiny language) as symptomatic of larger societal issues, thus in turn recontextualizing missed moments of bigotry in the shows own history
#editing the post to include my reblog addition in case ppl see it in the tags#LIKE OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD#i think the end could have been. a little subtler with the specific script but seeing as people still dont get the racism and classism WHIL#IT WAS THAT HEAVY HANDED maybe its for the best#me when i saw they were all white in the early part: is this intentional commentary or a bbc casting moment#warlock wartalks#dw spoilers#doctor who

“Is doctor who a good or bad person” theyre the kind of person to fly in a little blue box and go weeeeee
#some ppl took the driving question of capaldi being am a good man and went oh so there’s a right answer#like whyyyy does it matter whyyy do we always need to define fictional characters like this#12 was right. not a good or bad man. just an idiot. peace and love on doctor who#idek where this all came from bc I feel like previously everyone just kinda understood that the doctor is a complex character#and then earlier today I saw someone talking abt who the ‘villain’ of midsommar was..bro.#does everything have to be a morality play to you people#warlock wartalks
