I get the idea behind it but I'm begging Doctor Who to get some companions who aren't girls in their early twenties who happen to come from the same year the series is aired, please I'll lend you my idea for a tragic gladiator who's saved from slavery and fighting to the death by space adventures only to find there's still horribleness and fighting everywhere/when and who has historical tidbits to drop all the time. Get a zany alien. Hell, get Amelia Earhart or something.

Ngl, I had so much fun drawing this today :'D I was stuck in town, but I brought my sketchbook with me and spent all day drawing this stream of consciousness style. It felt good to draw all willy nilly, and let things look Bad for once. Where the goal isn't to make everything look perfect. And this is so so so dumb, I was grinning like an idiot half the time. Twas a long, manic, coffee fueled drawing session.

Normally I don't pay tumblr polls much mind, but there's something so hilarious about this. I like to imagine these guys are all together. Everyone's a nervous, sweaty wreck. It's a horrible, fucked up mpreg contest and NO ONE wants to be there.

Remember guys. Don't forget to vote. It would be a shame if someone voted for Ford, and made his life harder... a real shame...

"doctor who should be less political" not in a "i'm a whiny bigoted baby who totally missed the fact that this show has had political themes since its conception" way and more a "hey if you're gonna incorporate political themes/messages into your story, maybe take greater care in writing it so it doesn't come off as cringey at best and tone deaf/utterly offensive at worst" way

firm believe that not everything happens for a reason, sometimes things are just cruel. and they shouldn’t have happened and it’s not supposed to be a lesson because we never deserved such thing.

For me this isn't even about empathy or sympathy (though there's value in those as well), it is just straight-up a human rights thing. Once you have decided that there is *any* category of human that can be treated as less-than-human you've said that humanity is conditional, and so are the rights that come with it. You've already lost, you've granted the fascists their point because *you agree with them* that some people don't deserve to be treated like humans.

A cyanometer is a device used to measure the intensity of blue in the sky, often used in meteorology and atmospheric studies. It typically consists of a series of blue color patches or a color gradient, allowing the user to compare the sky’s color to these reference colors.

NGL I think it’s hilarious how angry Europeans (and specifically Italians) get when Italian Americans call themselves Italian. A guy can be 100% ethnically Italian, have an Italian name, speak the language, uphold Italian cultural practices and they’ll argue with him if he calls himself Italian. And it’s kind of the opposite of how Irish people treat Irish Americans. They’re like “JFK was one of us. Obama? Also one of us.”

Note, I am finding these threads on the twitter feeds of ICU nurses who are now dreading the horrors that Roe falling will bring to their hospitals. This, on top of the horrors that they’ve seen and continue to see because of the pandemic. They were already exhausted and hanging by a thread.
