I agree. It was sad for her. Enormously sad. But something Enormously Sad happens to all of us. It happens to the Doctor over and over. No one gets to avoid it, and the hope/belief was that Donna would go back to her “ordinary life,” which didn’t have to be a tragedy. The rest of us live ordinary lives perfectly…

If "queermo spazz" is you not being offensive, I'm curious what you consider offensive....

Yeah, that’s where you reeeally felt the crunch of COVID protocols.
There were so many close-ups, I finally realized “Oh my God, nobody else is in the room shooting these scenes.”

Huh? Obviously because a bunch of predominantly white men got to choose the actor.

He got us, folks. The resident incel has trapped us in his web of logic. 

Exactly this, and why I’m hoping they’ll just quietly sweep that bit of canon under the rug. Do people really not understand that it’s far more impressive for your protagonist to just be some nobody who rose to the occasion instead of a super special secret child of destiny? [Glares in J.J. Abrams’s direction]

Answer to dipshits who ask stupid questions: It doesn’t fucking matter. If you want to be Alpha Male about it, just think of it like stocks: because past results don’t predict the future.

It’s the same thing with The Little Mermaid.
I’m no fan of Disney’s live-action remakes, but having a debate whether a mermaid could be black or not was absolutely asinine.
“Well objectively speaking...” MERMAIDS AND TIME LORDS AREN’T REAL.

Doctor Who gender or race-related blowback is really the pinnacle of idiocy. The character is an alien with two hearts who travels through time and space in a 60s-era British police phone box that’s bigger on the inside, and who literally regenerates periodically into somebody who looks entirely different. And this…

Living in that bubble of positivity

I had many, many, many issues with the Chibnall era, but Jodie Whittaker wasn’t one of them. Do I wish that the first female Doctor had had something resembling a consistent personality? Sure, but that wasn’t Whittaker’s fault.

I really loved the joy and energy and empathy she brought to the role. And her and Mandip Gill as Yaz had firehot chemistry

She should not have been let go for her comments, but I’m seeing a lot of younger people on social media, including my relatives, speaking up on this conflict without any deep understanding of it. All they see are brown people being bombed and that feeds into some preconceived notions of ‘colonialism bad’ and so they e…

Alternate Headline: Studio Uses Social Media Faux Pas As Excuse To Remove The Actress Nobody Cares About And Promote Beloved Starlet Jenna Ortega To Franchise Lead

I think with everything going on in the world, we’re probably pretty far past “Bradley Cooper’s nose is the most antisemitic thing out in the world right now.”

“Despite widespread backlash”

I’m in.

Everything about this sounds delightful and I know I’m going to adore it

It’s fascinating to see how Letterkenny evolved from the Letterkenny Problems shorts into a full-fledged TV show with interesting characters. And then they did the exact some thing with Shoresy, taking a one-note character and fleshing him out into someone much more interesting. I love Letterkenny and it will always…

While I loved Letterkenny (partly because I grew up near Listowl and have friends from there), it had worn out it’s welcome. Ending it after this newest season is the right call but.....
