He’s very much Stock Handsome White Man

Which begs the question... with billions and billions of heat sources...why is space cold at all?

Space is f***ing huge

Because there’s a lot more space between all those heat sources than people can comfortably comprehend.

Space isn’t cold. It’s neither hot nor cold, because it’s a vacuum. The material substances and objects in space are hot or cold, depending on how much heat they’ve absorbed vs. how much heat they’ve radiated. Space is big and empty enough that most things in it are going to be very far away from heat sources like…

Radiation isn’t that inefficient for heat transfer. You won’t instafreeze, but it’ll definitely kill you in the long run. Thermos bottles work as the surfaces are reflective to IR-radiation (metal). Unfortunately our skin is more of a black body radiator, i.e. it radiates as much as is possible.

You are misinterpreting the “why” of the instant freeze. It is not about conduction to the cold of space; It is the decompression itself that causes a rapid temperature drop - analogous to how an air conditioner works, or why the propane tank on your grill gets frosty after use, even on a hot day.

“her”

I’d watch the hell out of that.

You’re right, I had completely forgotten them. Although even after your reminder I can only remember the very start and the very end of the episode. Were they the same Time Lords that he locked in a Painting at the end of the 50th anniversary Time War or are they still to be recovered?

That would take all the mystery out of where they’re going each episode cause there’s no way in hell the TARDIS doesn’t go exactly where Judi Dench wants to go.

Let me guess, it’s a perky young woman in her mid-twenties! And she’ll be the most special of special snowflakes that ever flaked!

I’d like a homosexual young man, who becomes the doctors love interest.

Oh my God, I would tune in and watch if she and Capaldi did nothing but stand around the TARDIS and read from the London phonebook!

It’s Judi Dench, isn’t it? Nothing else will do.

Instead of a madonna/whore dichotomy, I think Trump employs a fat pig/bimbo dichotomy. Kelly is not fat or ugly, and she’s not a bimbo because she keeps challenging him. At first, he was pissed that she was given permission to do so, but now that it’s clear FOX isn’t going to hide her away to appease him, she is now…

I think there is something weird and psychosexual in his inability to take criticism from her. He cannot abide her not liking him - her dissent. At first, it seemed like the usual politician versus pesky reporter war, but it’s not. There’s something about her being female that he cannot stand.

Or indentured servitude. Last week Dear Prudie got a letter from a woman saying she and her husband didn’t want kids, but should they at least have one so someone would take care of her (she was younger than the husband) in her old age. All I could think was “You don’t read nearly enough advice columns or you’d see…

That poor kid and his poor sisters, who were basically just told via major news outlets that they’re not good enough.
