Hello, sweetie. I'm Lily, and I'm a fan of Doctor Who (Classic and New, though I prefer Classic), LOST, Monty Python, Sherlock and Elementary, Homestuck, Supernatural, and Arrested Development
If we like any of the same shows, or you think I sound nice and want to be friends, feel free to message me <3
Also, you can see all the gifs and such I've made on the 'Tags' link down below.
Why is there very little utility to women’s clothing? Why don’t we get pockets which actually open? Why do we have to put up with the ‘false pockets’ that are frequently sewn onto women’s jackets and pants to give visual interest without ruining the ‘line’ of the garment? Why, when pockets are actually present, are they so rarely large, stable, or loose enough to accommodate a phone or a wallet? And why, given this is the case, do women go on to cop so much flack for carrying handbags around with them?
Oh wait. Is this one of those double standards which we feminists are always going on about; one of those innocuous little things which everybody just accepts because it is the norm?
Women carry handbags. It is known.
But why? I have watched my male friends get ready to go out. They slip their wallet into one pocket, their keys into another, their phone into a third pocket, and some of them even still have spare pockets large enough to carry a novel for the journey. Those of my friends who wear women’s clothes, though, face an entirely different situation. If they are wearing the right jeans or jacket, they may have up to two usable pockets (not at all guaranteed). However, in most cases they won’t have any pockets at all. Utility and style rarely meet in women’s fashion, so they grab a bag.
Contrary to all the jokes, most women don’t ‘have’ to leave the house with everything they pack in their day-to-day handbag. Most of the items in a woman’s everyday handbag are in there because, if she’s going to have to carry it anyway, she might as well make it worth her while. Excuse us for making use of the one useful item we find in our wardrobes.
- I think maybe I'll watch Three then One then Two and then Six Seven Eight
- blah blah blah
hmm, I’ve just got The Caves of Androzani left to watch and then that’s it for Fivey.
Now for a tricky choice. I started watching Classic Who with Four and then I moved on to Five. From the odd episodes I’ve seen from some of the other Doctors, I think I’d like Six and Seven, but their stories seem to be commonly criticised. Should I continue in chronological order ‘till the television movie, or do I go back and watch One, Two, and Three?
God, this is just fucking beautiful. The lighting, the wings so gently in the background I didn’t see them at first, and now I can’t stop staring. The sword, the hard stares, the everything… Goregous! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you very much! :D
- to be honest I'm now looking forward more to the 23 Doctors (a comic by the same bloke)
- than I am to the actual 50th
- oh Doctor Who showrunners
- there was so much stuff from Classic Who that could've been done in the 50th
- but I guess I shouldn't complain about it 'till I watch it
- I could be pleasantly surprised
- like no one had any idea about Clara being in Asylum of the Daleks
- so maybe something like that is gonna happen with the 50th???
- I hope so
- long tags
- blah blah blah
Aaaaaaand I just finished The Ten Doctors
Wow, that was awesome. The plot got a bit loopy at times, and there were a couple of mis-characterisations near the end, but having 10 Doctors in the same story… it’s ambitious and incredibly difficult, and keeping that in mind, it was very, very good.
Probably better than the actual 50th will be, I’m afraid. Maybe not a better story, since the John Hurt stuff looks interesting, but definitely a better celebration of the long history of Doctor Who.
The Rani, the Black and White Guardians, Omega, Romana and all those other Companions, the Toymaker, the Master, Maxil, the Valeyard… There’s a small chance maybe one of them will appear in the 50th, but two Doctors, two Companions, and nothing (probably) from Classic Who save the Zygons a celebration of 50 years of history do not make.

You think that this Metatron is hiding out in the mountains with a bunch of Indians?
the way it should be, famous songs from animated movies performed in the language of the place the stories are set in or the character’s mother tongue {listen}

I’m going to throw out my objective yet semi biased opinion to ya’ real quick. For a short while, tumblr subscribed and treated Cole as a king. He proceeded to inform, bamboozle, and convince these same subscribers of some potentially interesting topics and theory. Then, he left this subscriber base high and dry after his own means were accomplished in typical monarchical fashion. I know the term peasant on tumblr is a pseudo-inside joke with the bloggers, but I would advise you and everyone else who calls Cole this to look at the historical definition of a peasant and then ask yourself who really were the peasants in this dupe.
This topic only concerns me so far as it fills my inbox, but my advice?
