Seeing people say that we never see the Doctor and Ruby talking for more than 30 seconds makes me think 73 Yards and Dot and Bubble has just clouded their memories because the first four episodes of this era are almost nothing but the Doctor and Ruby talking and bonding.

Yeah, the Doctor-lite episodes meant we haven't had as much lately, but so many are going on as there's been none at all, as if every episode before 73 Yards was like Rogue where they were mostly separated in their own plotlines.

#doctor who #dw #fifteenth doctor #ruby sunday #ncuti gatwa #millie gibson #and don't get me started on the tardis bookends discourse #that argument lost all credibility when the same people insisted the ending of rogue be moved to the tardis #for no reason other than they wanted it in the tardis #it was exactly the type of scene they said the season was lacking #but didn't count because it wasn't in the tardis #same as with boom #one of the reasons they don't do tardis scenes at the start and end of every episode is because they get rather repetative #if you started rogue with the doctor and ruby in the tardis it would just end up being a repeated of the devil's chord #they decide to do bridgerton and get all dressed up #we don't really need a scene explaining why they're there #it is built into the whole show that they are just roamers #often randomly showing up in places and trying to have fun #for them going to a regency ball is no different than going to a club is for most people #wildest one was someone complaining why they were in wales at the start of 73 yards #they argued that because we didn't get a scene in the tardis we had no idea if being there was intentional or not #but that is irrelevant #the tardis often just lands in random places and the doctor and co have no idea where they are until they step outside #so many episodes start with them stepping outside and going “where the hell are we?”#everything that could've been said in the tardis was said outside it #there was no need to split that between two locations #especially when one actors time is limited #this all feels tied into the ongoing discourse about shows being longer #which many say is to it in more character beats #but honestly just feels like a hunger for more content

Maybe the 'humanization' of iwtv's amc version threw people off a bit.

I know I felt a certain kind of disconnect due to a horror show looking like a gay hipster drama.

But the show is still about monsters.

In the actual sense.

As in 'not human'.

And monsters act differently and have a different 'moral codex' if you can call it that.

So constantly pitting them against each other in a way where one party is measured by human standards makes no sense.

They are all equally horrible and by vampire standards that makes sense.

I get everyone is rooting for their fave and has therefore more compassion for one specific set of trauma, I know I do, but the discourse about who is the evil one is still extremely off.

Like, we should be looking from a human perspective, so everyone is evil, since they would all kill us.

#iwtv #interview with the vampire #iwtv amc #discourse #louis de pointe du lac #armand #lestat de lioncourt #gotta look into the alien vs predator fandom to see who has more rights just for fun #I have a suspicion it would be the xenomorphs due to popularity even tho they probs have a higher human body count #but this is the monster apologist site anyways so what am I even doing here #I mean I'm just arguing because my monster got more sh*t than another one #which is not fair #lol

St. John Henry Newman in the main text of Apologia Pro Vita Sua: I'm not going to address all of Mr. Kingsley's accusations. I'm just going to tell the full story of how my theological opinions developed over time, so I can refute the main charge that I was dishonest about my beliefs.

Newman in the appendix: I'm taking every one of those accusations and I am explaining in detail every single way he lacks reading comprehension. I am pulling quotes. I am keeping score.

#it's so hilarious #i can't get over it #i'm dying #he's keeping count and *italicizing* every number as he adds it to the tally #sassy newman is much more fun #catholic things #st. john henry newman #books #'my words which were staring him in the face'#i can't decide if newman was made for the world of online discourse #or if he's lucky to have missed it because he never would have stopped

OKAY so these tags prompted me to look more into it and find my source and I did get that wrong. He said he "identifies as queer" but from the way he talked about it it sounded like he was referring to orientation more than gender identity. It was kinna ambiguous.

#arguably MLM should be considered “TMA” if anyone is but I would not make that point to die on the hill that Sam should count #there are so many other hills that still make the transmisogynistic Dropout argument ridiculous #discourse

not even saying this to be a hater but if sam winchester were a decade younger he'd definitely be one of those people who ditches regular deodorant in favour of the "natural" kind that have you smelling like a bag of chopped onions after 5-10 mins of moderate exercise

#2015natural fandom would discourse abt whether dean replacing sam's toiletries with a 3 pack of speed stick counts as a violation of his bo-#can't finish that tag actually

hey, so, with people starting to talk about until dawn again, i think i'm gonna do something i swore many many years ago that i wouldn't do. i'm gonna ask the hard questions, the tough questions, the questions that will likely get me blocked, muted, and blacklisted seven ways from sunday. these are questions i've asked before, questions that bothered people, questions that made people look inside themselves for answers, questions that, dare i say, had people rioting in the streets, but you know what? someone's gotta tackle these issues. it might as well be me.

perhaps some of you already know where i'm going with this. perhaps some of you don't. either way...

why the fuck did the washingtons put so many goddamn couches in that lodge?!

"it's, like, a ski resort, isn't it? people gotta sit." THE LAST TIME I PLAYED THE HIT 2015 PLAYSTATION EXCLUSIVE UNTIL DAWN I THINK I COUNTED 31 COUCHES BEFORE I GAVE UP. I DON'T CARE HOW MANY VISITORS YOU'RE EXPECTING, AT A CERTAIN POINT YOU GET BANNED FROM FURNITURE WHOLESALERS FOR THAT KIND OF DEVIL-MAY-CARE PURCHASING ATTITUDE!!!!!!!!

DO THEY NEED A DIFFERENT COUCH FOR EVERY DAY?! IS THAT WHAT IT IS?! oh, this is my monday couch! i couldn't possibly sit on it today, what with it being wednesday and all! WAS THERE A DEAL GOING ON?! WHEN THEY WERE FURNISHING THE LODGE WAS SOMEONE DOING A BUY 1 GET 5 FREE DEAL?! DID NOT PURCHASING THE COUCHES MAKE LESS SENSE THAN OVERINDULGING IN THEM?! I ASK YOU!

but that's not even the worst

no, no it's not even close

the sheer number of couches is irresponsible, yes. baffling, even. but i could overlook it. y'know? i could. i'm a chronically fatigued little so-and-so, and i appreciate a couch when i see one, okay? i see a couch, i feel safe, i get that. fine. sure. give the people what they want - seating. plentiful and varied seating. whatever.

no, my problem comes from one fucking couch in particular. one. horrible. terrible. inscrutable couch. i speak, of course, of thE BATHROOM COUCH

WHY IS IT IN THE BATHROOM?! THE ROOM SPECIFICALLY FOR THE BATH?! WHY IS IT DIRECTLY BESIDE THE FUCKING BATHTUB OF ALL PLACES?! AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YOU KNOW THAT THING'S JUST FULL OF MOLD!!!!!! ITS FIBERS ARE RUINED. ITS UPHOLSTERY IS RANCID WITH MILDEW

"oh but queenie, it's just a little stand you can put your clothes on and stuff!" NO, I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT THAT - I'M TALKING ABOUT THIS SPORE-MAGNET RIGHT HERE!!!!

THAT'S THE BITCH! THE FULL SIZE FUCKIN COUCH RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE KING SIZE BATHTUB. WHY DO WE NEED THIS?! WHY ARE WE WATCHING PEOPLE BATHE? ARE WE LOUNGING ON IT WHILE WE WAIT FOR THE TUB TO FILL?! WHY IS THERE A BLANKET OVER PART OF IT?! WHAT IS THE PURPOSE?! WHY DO WE HAVE THIS?!DID AN INTERIOR DESIGNER GREENLIGHT THIS DECISION?!

AND WHY IS NO ONE ELSE TALKING ABOUT IT?!?!?!??!?!?!

#queenie rambles about supermassive #im just gonna keep askin the tough questions over here #fr tho when i was writing t(a) i literally started a playthru to count because i thought it would be funny #it quickly became not funny #the washington family made a lot of questionable decisions throughout the game but this one is...this one haunts me #i'm too old and tired for character discourse but this???? THIS??????????? supermassive EXPLAIN

lets never waste a year of our lives on a minecraft server again!! since they always crash and burn anyway

regardless of what happened or will happen, I still loved my time here I wouldn’t have met Kia without qsmp, I wouldn’t have met half the wonderful people here. This sucks but love what you had, love what you got out of this, though vent all you like because this feels like a stab to the heart and then falling down a set of stairs.

#asks!#Vent #neg #discourse #I would have met liss and mika so like they don’t count

the A in LGBTQIA2S+ stands for asexual and aromantic, yes. this absolutely is not a post arguing against that. but it is absolutely, critically vital that the A does also stand for ally. the plausible deniability that ally being a part of the acronym offers closeted people is a necessity. it's a matter of safety.

#not disagreeing on a post i saw that was clearly coming from a place of 'stop fucking being hateful to members of the community and #prioritizing people who do not hold a queer identity over people who do when you say ally is in the acronym and aro/ace aren't'. like i kno #a post coming from there is not the time or place to disagree #but you seriously don't see the value in plausible deniability? you don't realize there's queer kids whose parents would respond terribly t #them being 'a supportive ally of a queer friend' but that bad response would still be WAY better than if they were outed to their parent?#the wiggle room ally being a part of the official acronym allows saves lives.#and i've fucking KNOWN cishetallo allies who grew up being homophobically bullied who absolutely Count As A Part Of The Community.#ANYWAYS #jam posts #this is completely okay to reblog . Please Do actually #like idk having run queer youth support groups in a red state there's perspectives people share that make me go. do you not realize how #safety is the biggest function of community? in response to a lot of dumb shit discourse on here.

Seeing any kind of villain/problematic character discourse is making me glad No Straight Roads isn't as popular.

Becuase I don't wanna imagine DJSS, 1010/Neon J, Eve and Tatiana getting so much...THAT.

#c's thoughts #I'm not counting sayu or yinu #since they're kids #even though kids aren't immune to discourse as well #but still #if i have to deal with that discourse i would jump ship immediately #especially my beloved djss #no straight roads #nsr

Western Joost fans when the Europapa Guy doesn't hate The Bad Europeans™ (Russians):

#I made the mistake of going on Twitter #it doesn't seem like people care that much about the actual things CMH and Daan said #it seems like they just care that one is Russian and the other said something that could be twisted to be pro-Russian #(to be clear: the things CMH and Daan said were horrible)#(it's just that if you care about the issues their comments present)#(you should take that up with *them*)#fundamentally I think a lot of Joost fans on Twitter harbour a lot of anti-Slavic bigotry #and they count themselves lucky that Russians are an acceptable target for that bigotry #because would they care about Daan insulting a Ukrainian otherwise? I really don't think they would #and I think they're mad that Joost isn't going to discard people for the crime of being Russian #obviously (in CMH's case) being Russian doesn't excuse racism or homophobia #but you cannot tell me in honesty that his being Russian did not play a role in how that discourse played out #I am not defending him or Daan #I am expressing that I don't think most Western fans are better than them #Joost Klein #discourse of the fandom variety #xenophobia tw #racism mention #homophobia mention #long tags

Ugh I really don't like complaining about random stuff people do, but the guilt-trippy and hostile variations on "reblogs are better than likes" messages on art really bother be so much they trigger my anxiety and make me feel awful every time I see them and I can't freaking filter them because everyone always phrases it differently

#I have soooo many phrases filtered and I stil! keep! seeing them!#vent #just complaining about stuff #discourse #<- tagging it that because if this were someone else's post I would want it to be filtered for that #idk if it really counts. but I also don't really care

It has been *erases chalk number* 0 days since I faced peer pressure to watch the clone wars (2008)

#coworker doesn't realize they've added ANOTHER YEAR TO THE WON'T WATCH OUT OF SPITE CLOCK #they're also getting even narrower on the 'you just have to get through X' stance #like it used to just be 'just get through the first season'#now they're like 'well it's seasons 5 & 7 that's the real good stuff'#how bout I just don't have to watch it #i'm sorry if anyone was hoping i would but my interest WANES WITH EACH PASSING YEAR #AND CONVERSATION WITH SOMEONE WHO'S LIKE 'OH IT'S REQUIRED VIEWING' IDK I'M DOING FINE WITHOUT IT #sorry for yelling i didn't mean to yell #no i mean i'm happy for everyone who likes it but it's also FINE to primarily like the films/books/games/comics #like whatever corner you're into that's great #that's the point of this fandom there are a bunch of things you get to just be into YOUR thing if you want #but i s2g i have faced more pressure to watch tcw than to do drugs #DARE should have prepared me for this and not idk whatever we did in DARE #i've got my 'it's just the animation style trips an uncanny valley feeling for me sorry can't do the CGI' speech memorized #idk if this counts as star wars discourse #but will tag #ban violation #just for organizational purposes

such is the tale of a ✨chronically online hypocrite✨

#(please forgive this old folk’s rambling for a hot min bc i need to get this off my chest somehow and in some way)#tl;dr: come and get into the hw idol series!!! we have ship discourse; more ship discourse; even more ship discourse #(yes ik people should be free to ship what they do b u t claiming a noncanon ship as canon and forcing it on everyone else is. not cool.)#yes yes friday’s mv was visually cute and ino.rin’s singing was peak b u t i feel like it has caused more harm than good in some way???#i cant b e l i e v e the jp hwtwt beef over friday’s mv is still going on mannnnnnnnn #no less than 3 separate people have made posts along the lines of #‘p l s stop using [official tags] to post about *[unnamed] non-official ships* p l s there’s a time and place for everything’#and n o n e of them even remotely run in the same circles yet they’re all banded together against a *certain* group lmfao never change hwtwt #lhy (esp yhy) shippers are always at the scene of the crime mannnnnnn #i cant see anything on their end of the naval battle (has every single lhy tag+account that i could think of blocked)#b u t it’s still really funny to witness on my twtdash against my will. i think i need to touch grass #‘kyhn isn’t canon either so why do you like it while being such a hater towards lhy—‘#great question!!!!!! it’s bc (disregarding the movie) they actually interact really well together~~~ like the honeypre event y k—#and also bc yukki treats hina really nicely all the time (even when she was being tsun and literally running from her feelings for him)#a n d hina loved him for who he truly was; even before his image change arc. and she also does her best to appeal to him and such~~~~~~~#but lhy. uh. they just bully hiyo 95% of the time and while they do look out for her bc they’re pals #they’re just pals. guys. and lxl have gone ‘uwu it must be u uwu’ to each other one too many times so shoehorning hiyo between them would.#be pretty weird ngl? esp since the ‘widely accepted’ portrayal of lhy as a trio is p much just hiyo x 2 dudes who dont even like each other #and. like. a branch of such portrayals usually seem to have aizo waft away from the ‘r/s triad’ to date mona instead which is. very weird.#some people just pick and choose aizo and mona interactions dont they. all they see is the umbrella scene and go ‘ah yes. canon’#they dont even read further to see how mona doesn’t even use the umbrella after aizo leaves (clear rejection)#a n d how aizo doesn’t even remember giving the umbrella to mona + mona’s entire existence in general after that #and that’s not even counting the grudge mona refuses to let go of even after what looks to be literal months #so for certain shippers to just casually shoo aizo out of the hiyoharem and into mona’s unwilling arms for the sake of yhy is. weird.#and like. shouldn’t he and yujiro have a say in this?? they’re more interested in each other than hiyo so just how are they being commonly #portrayed as hiyosimps in fanon? im so confused… like. wouldn’t they be equally obsessed with each other (as w/ hiyo) if they were a rstrio?#aaaaaa get this off my twtdash plsssssssss pls see this post twtapp pls let this affect your dumb algorithm im tired of the ship discourseee #as funny as the ‘lhy vs the world’ naval warfare is it’s getting. um. very annoying!!!! and now im missing nagisa more than ever s o b s #plsplsplsplsplsplsplsplspls influence the algorithm ragepost; ik big brother is 👀watching👀 so do your thing—#(pls feel free to duke it out with me too if y’all read this i need my birdsite algorithm to le a r n that i dont wanna see stuff like this)
