doctor who coming back in the year of 2023 when terfism and biological essentialism and transphobia are on the rise and making one of THE most hyped up episodes by bringing back fan favorites david tennant and catherine tate. all about being trans
showing rose being bullied and her grandma struggling to get it right but still being supportive. and shaun and donna being the greatest parents by being ready to burn the world down to protect their daughter. the doctor asking for the meep's pronouns AND IT'S NORMAL???
and all of that is brilliant to see rose as a trans character and it is important to the narrative. BUT THEN. ROSE BEING TRANS SAVES DONNA'S LIFE BY TAKING HALF OF THE METACRISIS. BECAUSE THE DOCTOR IS MALE AND FEMALE AND NEITHER AND MORE. AND THAT IS INTEGRAL TO DOCTOR WHO AS A WHOLE. and it saved donna's life
to see doctor who be so BLATANTLY trans and nonbinary at the core of the series. the multiple references to the fact that before fourteen, thirteen was a woman. so to see this? trans people stay winning. thank you doctor who for doubling down on the importance of the doctor being trans because oh my god I am so emotional about this
Our whole lifetime, that Doctor that first met the Toymaker never, ever stopped. Put on trial. Exiled. Key to Time. All the devastation of Logopolis. (Adric.) Adric. River Song. All the people we lost. Sarah Jane has gone, can you believe that for a second? (I loved her.) I loved her. And Rose. But the Time War, Pandorica, Mavic Chen. We fought the Gods of Ragnarok, and we didn't stop for a second to say, what the hell?
I just found out that today is FNAFs 9th anniversary!! So I dropped EVERYTHING and rushed to draw this ASAP and post it for the big day!
Five Nights at Freddy's has been a huge part of my life and my art journey. And I have to give it credit for my rise on Tumble too. Its hard to believe its been 9 whole years.. but what a crazy 9 years its been! Thank you Scott for making this awesome franchise. Here's to 9 more years of fun games and ever expanding and complicated lore!! XDD
At the start of this project all I wanted was to 'learn how to draw' using comics as a medium and the MDZS audio drama as inspiration.
I've come *very* far from making simple, 3 panel black and white comics, and I truly do intend to go even further. Thank you to everyone who cheered me on throughout 2023, it has been an incredible year in so many ways I never could have imagined. I look forwards to drawing throughout 2024 B*)
to see the Doctor opening up about the events of the Flux and the revelation of the Timeless Child, to have him think for a moment that his best friend shared those memories and that he had someone he could share the burden with, someone that could understand his pain and his fear, and then to have that taken away from him, to have that turn into a weapon to terrorise him... as much as it hurt, as cruel and heartbreaking as it was, i think it was brilliantly written, because that moment where we thought the Doctor was being comforted didn't feel earned. Donna having those memories wouldn't be as meaningful as having the Doctor willingly opening up. in order to heal, he needs to talk about it, to willingly share those memories in his own terms. Donna tries to get him to talk at the end, she is so gentle in the way she asks, trying to make him feel comfortable enough to share, but the weight of those memories and the cruelty of the being in the spaceship make him hold back again, but at least he's honest in how long it would take him to heal, and that alone shows how much he's grown and it shows that with time he'll be able to really open up and start to heal
So depending on what doctor, every doctor has a different experience with physical touch.
We see doctors like 9,10, & 13 being more open to it but never really seeking it out and then on the opposite scale 11 & 12 especially 12 are really awkward to physical affection and will accept it in important times but otherwise avoid it.
If I had to say which is most okay with physical touch it’d be ten.
So in a clip of wild blue yonder we see the doctor kissing donna’s hand to comfort her, which is a huge step and I’ve never seen him act that way towards anyone before.
Not only that but 14 also has said multiple time that he loves people, which is so incredibly crazy considering he couldn’t even tell rose or river that he loved them because he knew it’d be even more heartbreaking if he did say it.
14 is a lover, not a fighter. He has this like emotional weight to him that everyone could see from just one episode. And I love watching it because it something so new. (And also not?)
I understand that all the doctors have been emotional at times and we’ve seen them all go through different emotions but the way 14 carries this greif, anger, sadness, joy all in one is so amazing and I really applaud David for bringing that out.
Senshi coming to collab with AK during the hardest babel lore drops and victorian arc updates is the most senshi thing to do (oh and more seaborn bullshits)
