I’m Me

Do rich people have to go to the DMV to renew their license? Like, would Bruce Wayne have to go to the DMV and wait in a long line for three hours with his 14 proofs of address, 3 different government issued IDs, birth certificate, and SSN card, only to get yelled at for not having a notarized statement from his 7th grade English teacher attesting to his completion of the Iowa basics that year that the website definitely told him he should have had, why didn't he read the instructions on the website? Because that would make me feel better if I knew Batman had to do it too.

My Two Cents On The “ Is David Tennant Queer” Drama

As some of you know, I spent a solid third of the past year working on a movie-length video essay about David Tennant. This video essay features an eight minute section titled “Gender, Vulnerability, and Why David Tennant Is A Queer Icon”, which does not speculate on David’s own sexuality, but discusses the queer coding and subversion of gender norms in plenty of his roles and his importance as an ally to the LGBT community. At the same time, I was also coming to terms with my own identity as nonbinary and bisexual, and it ended up playing a crucial role in me finally working up the courage to come out to my parents. Characters like Crowley and the Doctor, both in terms of how they present themselves and how and who they love, have been absolutely instrumental in me developing my queer identity, and my comments section was full of people who had had similar experiences, who’d realized they were trans, nonbinary, gay, etc thanks to David and his characters. And as a result, I won’t deny that if David himself were to be queer, it would mean a lot to me.

Do I think David is queer? It’s certainly possible. I see a lot of how I express my queerness in how david chooses to express himself, most prominently through his frequent queer coding of characters who don’t necessarily have to be played as such. This can especially be seen through his Shakespeare characters, such as Richard, Hamlet, and some would argue Benedick as well. When I was 15 I played Mercutio in Romeo and Juliet, who I chose to play as a closeted young gay man harboring an unrequited crush on Romeo. I think I saw this role subconsciously as an outlet for my own repressed queerness, both of gender and sexuality, as I had experienced an unrequited crush on my female best friend the previous year which I was still in denial about. I’ve described my gender identity as “a girl with a chaotic tortured gay man inside of her that needs to be let out every once in a while”, which has never been more true than with Mercutio- a character who I might add, I took a great deal of inspiration from David when playing! In terms of using roles as an outlet for one’s queerness, I could absolutelt see this being true with David, especially when it comes to Crowley, who seems to have had an impact on David’s style, behavior, etc in a rather similar way to how he’s impacted me. I don’t want to act like David wearing pink docs means he must be gay, I think people should be allowed to wear whatever they want regardless of sexuality, but taken in conjunction with so many other things about him, it does make one wonder, and the fact that a seemingly straight man has been so many people’s queer awakening is a bit puzzling to say the least. I won’t pretend that these “signs” (if you interpret them that way), haven’t been increasing somewhat in the past year, and if I got to share my own coming out journey with the man who inspired it, I would be absolutely thrilled. I also can’t specifically think of an instance where David has SAID he is straight, as opposed to Taylor swift, who has.

With all of that said, where I personally draw the line is when mere speculation crosses into interfering with the subject’s personal relationships and the sense that one is OWED something. I believe that what matters to David more than anything is being a husband and a father. I believe he adores Georgia and his children and would not do anything in the world that he believes would jeopardize his family. As happy as I would be for David if he were to come out (probably as bi) I realize that that would put so much unwanted attention on his marriage and family and I think that’s the last thing he wants. I don’t think it’s IMPOSSIBLE that he and Michael Sheen are having a passionate love affair behind everyone’s backs, but I absolutely don’t consider it my place to insist that they are, because as much as I may feel like I do, I don’t know these people! And besides, if David were cheating on Georgia, he really would not be the person I thought he was.

So many queer people see themselves in David and his characters, and that is beautiful. And I don’t think there’s anything inherently wrong with having theories that David might be queer himself. However, it must be acknowledged that these theories are THEORIES, and they should not be used to invalidate people’s real life relationships- after all, it’s totally possible to be bi/pan and also be in a loving and healthy heterosexual relationship like David and Georgia at least seem to be in! If David were in fact “one of us”, I would welcome him with the openest of open arms, but unless and until he himself decides to proclaim himself that way, I will not expect anything of him other than to be the incredible artist and person we know and love.

Hey just letting you self diagnosed autistic people know as a medically diagnosed person.

All those approved tests online made by doctors on self evaluating yourself for autism were used in my ACTUAL medical testing as well. They put the RAADS and Cat Q on me, they gave me “strongly agree-strongly disagree” questions. (Most of) Those tests are just as valid and just as accurate as a medical diagnosis that not everyone has the privilege and access to. You are valid don’t let anyone tell you those tests are “online propaganda for attention seekers” (my mother told me this)

I love these fellas ~

COWBOY ERA COWBOY ERA COWBOY ERA!! I LOVE ME SOME GAY COWBOYS WHO ARE LESBIANS, YES SIIIIIR! I spent way to much time on this, and I'm not ashamed. I'm so normal about the idea of the 5th doctor crew and cowboys, I swear....plus mothman- C'MON Y'ALL!

Also, I def think Tegan could do a whopper on someone if given the chance in a real fight. Idk why, but Tegan seems like the kinda woman who got into a LOT of cat fights in early school years, and probably picked up a thing or 2 having grown up on a sheep farm- could just be me..but..let a girl dream 😔

Gonna be real i'm not dreading the 'Jonathan Groff is playing Captain Jack' theory being true for the lore reasons,, I'm dreading it being true for Groff (and us) having to deal with JB being a relentlessly monumental bitch about it for the rest of both their lives

Finally updated this.

Anyway so I’m low-key obsessed with this because I like to think that that’s indeed The Doctor pushing back agains his hijacking

They're doing

what

out of the TARDIS?

my take on tfa knockout...and kobd

edit: go here to see my alternate take

Seen a lot of discourse going around about these two at the moment, so I thought I’d draw them and throw some positivity into the void because I love them both so much! They’re absolutely wonderful characters, and also you cannot tell me that  Rose “what’s your name, your pronouns and are you in a union” Tyler and Dan “I don’t need anything so long as other people around me are alright” Lewis wouldn’t be the best of friends, like just imagine it. They’re running through space and time to stand up to injustice and also offer you some soup (and maybe a bad pun or two), and they’ll make sure each other are okay whilst they’re at it. I love them.

like 'Phones Bad' is a vaugley annoying message but you can See what they were saying at least. like of course its science fiction the point is to think 'well what if this' - what if there was a planet of only young, rich, white, conventionally attractive, entitled and self-centered people all living together, who are so absorbed in how many followers they have and the Latest Thing that they literally cant see it (and dont want to) when something bad is happening in front of them. AND AND the way that lindy had all the tiktok type censored swears, and they were all 'i dont use up unnessecary resources!' while also blatantly enjoying consumerism. the sort of performative 'look see I'M a good person' that the internet is so full of. of course they would be outwardly polite but also fully onboard with colonialism. they live in an echo chamber. and they dont want to do anything else. lindy smiled while killing that ricky september guy but it was okay because /she/ was safe, which was all that mattered because she was special!! you can see what he means. while of course it is a critisism of phones it also seemed more like a criticism of the entitlement and disconnect that being chronically online CAN (not always does!) lead to.
