This week, Terry Nation tries to reclaim the glory days when Dalek stories took place on a more modest scale — full of incident and action sequences, but shot in a studio that had once hosted episodes of Morecambe and Wise. #DoctorWho #PlanetOfTheDaleks 500yeardiary.com/s5/e7
The striking gold figure of the Dalek Supreme, whose glowing red eye suggests that he had a bit of a big night last night.

the "don't bring iced coffee to an interview" discourse is great bc it's such a succinct and clarifying example of how private businesses aren't efficient & logical enterprises, they're just arbitrary in-groups ruled by sociopaths, power tripping on their ability to enforce pointless bullshit norms

It’s the Doctor in a burgundy-coloured velvet jacket, his face is pushed up against the midsection of a Dalek. He is grimacing with the effort of trying to hold on to it.

Ok, hear me out. A Lord of the Rings remake, but with these two taking the One Ring to Mordor:
Rutherford and Tendi from Star Trek Lower Decks. Rutherford has oily hand prints on his uniform. He is explaining something enthusiastically to Tendi, who looks on at him adoringly.

This week, we rashly steal the Daleks' thing and run away, only to find ourselves pursued through time and space for 3 months, visiting Z Cars, the cricket, a volcano planet, and some of the BBC's most lavish jungle sets. @tobyhadoke.bsky.social joins us. #DoctorWho 500yeardiary.com/s5/e6
Mavic Chen stands among a group of Daleks, looking quite grumpy despite the fact that he is wearing his best space tunic. We are in a set which looks like Ancient Egypt.

Trans rights is inherently a bodily autonomy issue. Just like abortion rights is. We can't have gender equity or reproductive freedom without trans rights. Full stop. You can yell at me and make up shit that you claim I've said if it makes you feel better. I don't care. I'm right. And you know it.

Ms. Rachel: "Ed Sheeran had an opportunity…Instead he caved to people who refuse to accept what the world knows." "If more than 20,000 white children were killed…everyone would be shouting…Treating some children's lives as less worthy of outrage is racist. Silence during a genocide is not neutral."
Ms. Rachel post:
"Ed Sheeran had an opportunity show that we won't be bullied into punishing people for supporting Palestine. Instead he caved to people who refuse to accept what the world knows. A genocide is happening in Gaza. We all need to speak out against it.

"If more than 20,000 white children were killed in another part of the world, everyone would be shouting about it at their concerts. Treating some children's lives as less worthy of outrage is racist. Silence during a genocide is not neutral."

In an isolated episode on a distant, inhospitable planet, the Daleks are fomenting an intergalactic conspiracy to overthrow the Solar System. And for arcane budgetary reasons, the Doctor isn't there to stop them. #DoctorWho 500yeardiary.com/s5/e5
Black-and-white still from the Mission to the Unknown remake. Inside the rocketship, a young and pretty Marc Cory looks at a small square object featuring the 500 Year Diary logo, while Lowery sits next to him looking downcast.

The only responsible attitude for liberals and progressives to align on is that all right-wing grievances, claims and believes are not only false, but malicious lies. Nothing passes the mouth of an American conservative in public life that is not meant to harm and destroy the lives of millions.

David and Susan are standing in front of a brick wall. Susan is looking upwards, upset about the Doctor’s departure. As if to console her, David offers her a copy of the Doctor’s diary with the podcast logo on the front.

Dolly Parton's passing is effortlessly proving that if you spend your life being nice and kind and generous instead of mean and cruel and selfish, then apologists for mean cruel selfish bullies won't have to go around scolding people for cheering when you die, because there will be no cheering.
