There's something so unironically funny about the fact that Tumblr is latching onto Jonathan Harker, a character from a work of fiction from 1897, as their new blorbo. Like there are all of these new, exciting pieces of media and Tumblr is like, no, I want the dumbass with a paprika intolerance and unhealthy dedication to his real estate career

The funniest implication of the reveal of the three vampire women living in Dracula’s castle that at some point Dracula probably had to explain to his roommates that he was going to have a human guest over and he needs to keep up the ruse that he has servants, that he doesn’t live alone here, and all three of them looked him in the eyes and said: “we’re not doing that.”

And all three of them just sat there watching as Dracula uses his superpowers pretending to be the entire wait staff.

queen shit.

I forget sometimes that most people in this site don't know/realise how incredibly trans the Moffat era is. There is a major arc based around a character's name that ends with the emphatic assertion that only name that matters is the one you choose yourself. There's a major character who changes gender and becomes a better, happier, and more realised person afterwards. Gender fluidity is made a major aspect of Time Lord culture. There is a Venn diagram overlap of trans girls and Capaldi-era stans, and it's for a good reason.

that some people respond to any well-foreshadowed reveal with “ugh that plot twist was so predictable” proves bad faith criticism has rotted their brains to the point they think it’s bad writing if they can correctly identify information the writers were intentionally giving them

I just have to say that. it would be amazing to me if every translation I read was extensively footnoted by the translator. I know this is not how everyone wants to experience a translation but I would like it and isn’t that what’s important

Again you all are missing the point, and missing out on the true comedy of this novel which is: for as strangely cheerful as Jonathan is he IS genre savvy and he DOES think something horrible might happen to him. The last two entries ended with him hoping desperately he'll get to see his family again. Not the words of someone unaware of the danger he's in. The comedy of Dracula is how he looks at the warning signs, SEES them, and his reaction is just to be like ":/. I guess this what I signed up for when I became a real estate agent. Should I have seen this coming?" Like this man is willing to risk joining the legions of the undead if that's where his line of work takes him. Furthermore his naturally buoyant spirit heightens the comedy bc his mind is like "Am I about to die? Man I love my fiance she's the best! Am I about to die? These mountains are gorgeous! Am I about to die? These locals are so kindhearted! Am I about to die? This chicken is really good! Am I about to die? My boss likes me!!! Am I about to die?
