I get the impression that they’ve explored a lot of other alternatives, but when all the power sources for most of your infrastrucure goes “boom” one day, even if you’ve got backup ideas, you’re in for a real bad time. When the stuff that powers everything from starships to communication spontaneously explodes, it’s…

“All time travel technology was destroyed after the temporal wars.” Hey, that sounds like a pretty cool story, why don’t you do a show about that.”

Ugh no. NO MORE TIME TRAVEL SHENANIGANS.

Wait...Young Sheldon is a SITCOM?

Ah, correction: some sort of creepy sexual CHARITY auction!

I agree. This season keeps throwing balls up in the air - Penny’s mysterious signal! The Moon! Changing magical circumstances! The Couple! Time travel! Evil Fogg! Julia’s Pregnancy Powers! Fen’s resentment at being a sidekick! Eliot’s issues with the Dark King! The Dark King! Blonde Marina! Blonde Marina’s love life!

This is the MSCL FanFic I didn’t know I needed.

..and then probably would have locked them out of the TARDIS, said “go and live your life, I’ll come back someday” and never come back.

All these billionares going to Davos, and then he’ll just go and create Daleks.

I’ve got it! They can cast Fisher Stevens!  I bet he’s available.

One of the interesting and slightly underrreported bits is that despite the prices going up, _margins_ on iPhones are going down slightly. So they’re more expensive to buy, but also more expensive to build.

It’s alluded in the series that Gallifrey is _very_ old and has been populated for a very long time; it’s entirely possible that the Gallifrey that the time lords evolved on in no way resembles the “modern” planet, down to even the flora and star systems. Their star may have been main sequence a few billion years ago…

I mean, Steve was a dick, no two ways about it, and his family has a lot of opinions about that, but aside from “wow I love his phones” nobody ever expected Steve Jobs to be the lone human that saves us from climate change or gets us to Mars or builds floating libertarian paradise arcologies or whatever the hell it is…

EVERYBODY in the country takes credit cards. You may be tempted to grab a ton of cash at the airport. Don’t bother. You’ll get better exchange rates from your card and even tour guides on the sides of mountains carry card readers.

Also, if driving, keep your lights on and don’t exceed the posted speed limits because they have cameras everywhere and WILL enforce it all. And rental car companies are kinda bastards about it. You don’t want to get home and then three months later have a bill for $300 show up because you got a $100 speeding citation…

It’s also pretty resistant to the elements and other forms of damage.

War? Huh. Good god, what is it good for?

Well, maybe YOU didn't.

Where are all those dancers now?

A bit on the nose, though.
