I'm just a person who knows things about Dr. Who sometimes

My comic collection is in such a strange state that I just tried to pull books out of a box just to reminisce about my time reading those stories Every issue I pulled was Blackest Night 0. Why do I have so many Blackest Night 0s?

Sometimes adult life is taking psychic damage every time you buy a snack. Got string cheese earlier. I'll never recover from this.

I do like that @mikemcmahan.bsky.social made it canon that Boimler as co-first officer has legs that are way too buff. I like to imagine he has a 12 foot vertical jump under Earth gravity.

Arbitrarily mad about Doctor Who today for some reason

"Russell T. Davies was the most recent showrunner of Doctor Who." "As a Doctor Who fan that's the breadth of your opinion of RTD2?" "There is some controversy regarding the most recent finale and cliffhanger." "Holy shit, you are a Zygon."

With how good the Hadestown proshot is and how well it's performing in theaters, I am once again trying to manifest a Henry Selick directed stop-motion adaptation

It's been one year since I found a dead body. If you've got a dad that's good to you, call him. If you don't, call someone else you love.

I have a private Instagram account. I followed the account of the woman who voiced Toph on ATLA. Instagram was like "You should set up to automatically confirm follow back from people you follow" when I did that. Weirdly implying she'd follow back. That ain't happening. This prompt is funny to me.

Through an Instagram feature, I accidentally added the premiere of the next season of Strange New Worlds to my calendar This makes me seem like some weirdo whose life revolves around Star Trek When really, my life revolves around Dr. Who and I'm fucking dead or something

Can someone send me a bunch of currency so I can catch up on Gallifrey? I haven't listened since Time War 1 and I miss it.

For the first time since I was a smaller man, a band had my size at a merch table. I mentioned that I'm "Kind of a dick about" how my size is typically not an option and this man looked me dead in the eyes and said "Good. Keep doing that!"

The Tumblr app has started playing Doctor in Distress at me at random for seemingly no reason This is a Doctor Who plot where The Doctor themself is trying to communicate that I need to save the show I have no resources to do so, so I suppose I'm open to suggestions.

For this Wilderness 2, can @bigfinish.bsky.social approach any possible upcoming Gatwa audios with a similar creative drive as they approached McGann in 2000? Just pretend we don't know where he's going, new companion, full on creative approach. Worry later about how to line up with Season 2.

My honest opinion is that the BBC should re-edit the end of Reality War to close on a fade to black and put out a release thanking Billie Piper but looking to bring the show to a clean slate as the series is out to tender.

I'm meeting Arthur Darvill this weekend, so I was going through my collection to find something I know I have that I thought could be neat to have signed. Apparently, @bigfinish.bsky.social also thought that and what I bought was already signed (I knew at the time 12 years ago and forgot)

Finally just opted to import the bluray for The War Between the Land and the Sea like a stooge since Disney doesn't seem like it's gonna add it to Plus anytime soon. Of course, since I did that, it means they'll add it tomorrow. So pre-emptive y'all are welcome.

Brought my niece to get milkshakes at Sonic. Ordered a small for both of us, but they gave me a medium. Afterward, I realized I was wearing my @futureteens.bsky.social Breakup Season hat. I think they thought I was a divorced dad and gave me the pity medium.

Catching up on the Ninth Doctor Adventures and listening to "Dare you" by @lisamcmullin.bsky.social For the love of all, WHY has she not yet been commissioned to write for the televised show? Every story I've listened to by her has been phenomenal. She should have had something in "Season 2"

When it happens, anyone who says 'its in bad taste to celebrate' has spent years with their fingers in their ears and their eyes sealed shut. Or supported him.

I want to get ahead of the @seanferrick.bsky.social and @trekculture.bsky.social Cetacean Observations with the note that a Field of Yellow flowers tied to a character with a lost mother suggests the game Mother 3 so MAYBE a Miyazaki reference is Hidetaka (video game) instead of Hayao (anime film)

Honestly, one of my take-aways from SFA episode 5 is why did @mikemcmahan.bsky.social not let Tawny write a Lower Decks episode? Does he hate fun? I think he might hate fun. I think that guy stole his wallet.

Star Trek Enterprise scene. It's an image of the White House in Washington, DC. Four long and tall Nazi banners in bright red are draped across the front and a Nazi flag on a flagpole flies above the building. A tank is stationed on the front lawn. No caption. RIP Renee Good. RIP Alex Pretti. Fuck ICE.

I follow all the Doctor Who Rumors and place no weight in them until something is officially announced but a big part of me is like LET @verbatimfoley.bsky.social WRITE EPISODES Like, just do it. It'll be great. The true 16th Doctor deserves something that good. Also #MakeJohnandGillianCanon

Why does every Doctor Who Youtuber I watch always call The Curse of Fatal Death "Curse of The Fatal Death" with The in the wrong place? It's multiple, unrelated people. This confuses me so much.

I've been playing a LOT of Dispatch from @adhocstudio.com and I'd say the choice option that bothers me most is that it's way too obvious that giving Shroud both is the right choice to a degree that I wish it was somehow a hidden option.

I asked my brother if he wanted to see Back to the Future The Musical on Friday. Except I didn't actually ask him that. I asked if he was free for something expensive. He said, "I'm in." I pointed out that I didn't say what and he started quoting BttF. Me: I didn't say what it was. Him:

If I'm understanding this correctly, Buddy the Elf was one of the kids in Weapons
A screenshot of an HBO Max selection screen that places the movies Elf and Weapons side by side. The Weapons poster features children running into the night with their arms outstretched at an angle. The Elf poster features Buddy the Elf making a snow angel with his arms at a similar angle to the kids in Weapons.

It's fun joining patreons that send things out and then completely ignoring all patreon posts that tell you what or when It was an Experience to open a package I didn't expect and find this from @jukeboxtheghost.bsky.social Especially since it took me a couple seconds to recognize them

Never became as popular as "ET Phone Home" did it

I still think @samreich.bsky.social should put me on a Doctor Who themed episode of Um, Actually but he won't because 1. He is a coward 2. Nobody knows who I am 3. He has nothing to do with Um, Actually guests 4. He is a coward
