if doctor who ever stops bieng bad then it has stopped being good also

by which i mean not just that part of the charm of doctor who is in campiness and weird special effects and widl experimental stories made because the budget ran out but because the core premise of the show is that it's essentially an anthology without being an athology, the tardis is less of a plot device and more of a framing device, to bring the doctor and companions into a totally different story and genre every week. and it can be gritty dystopia or historical farce or heist film or pulp horror or psychological drama. the raeson doctor who has produced some of the best scifi TV ever made is the same reason its produced some of the worst TV ever made, because you can go into the doctor who writer's room and pitch almost literally any premise and get it made

the moment the show stops having episoides that make you say "why the fuck would they make this" out loud it loses its potential to have episodes that make you say "how the fuck did they make something this good". we got the twin dielmma for the same reason we got remembrance of the daleks. we got love and monsters for the same reason we got blink. this is the essence of doctor who, the best spaghetti-throwing arm in TV history

Keeley is a "would you still love me if I was a worm" girl for sure

She asks this in the throuple groupchat and Jamie is like "ye I would build u a teeny worm house n feed u dirt on a teeny spoon everyday n get u a wee little worm hat and I would ask the wizard to turn me in2 a worm to so we can crawl in the dirt together 4eva 🪱🩷🪱 <- that us lol" and Roy reacts to both of their messages with a question mark

Now, researchers have put a nail in the coffin of porn addiction. Josh Grubbs, Samuel Perry and Joshua Wilt are some of the leading researchers on America’s struggles with porn, having published numerous studies examining the impact of porn use, belief in porn addiction, and the effect of porn on marriages. And Rory Reid is a UCLA researcher who was a leading proponent gathering information about the concept of hypersexual disorder for the DSM-5. These four researchers, all of whom have history of neutrality, if not outright support of the concepts of porn addiction, have conducted a meta-analysis of research on pornography and concluded that porn use does not predict problems with porn, but that religiosity does

This is a really good writeup.

The people who believe in "porn addiction" do always seem to be either hyper religious or part of that weird atheistic purity culture, you know the one, the one that weirdly crosses over into keto diets, eugenics or anti vaccination fears, like they're channeling Dr. Kellogg's various phobias.

I’m so fucking tired

Love that his reaction to being pranked was to pull the exact same prank on his buddy

It's a good prank when the person you pranked immediately wants in on it, and it doesn't cause any harm.

The Great Lakes and Saint Lawrence River superimposed on a map of Europe

…OH.

I googled it once and the only reason why the Great Lakes aren’t called inland seas is because they are entirely freshwater, not salt.

By any other metric they’d be seas. Superior especially (the big one in the upper left) behaves like a small ocean, and has claimed at least 250 ships and over 1000 people. Gordon Lightfoot wrote a frankly chilling song about her that I’ll include here:

Lake Michigan has never fully frozen. Leading to some absolutely terrifying images

Layers of ice created, shattered, and built up like this.

Hey, here’s a picture of that lighthouse in 2015, when we had a polar vortex

I love the Great Lakes, you know how all boats look like shit, like just rusty hulks, you don’t get that on the Great Lakes because it’s fresh water, like the shipwrecks are incredibly well preserved

so i didn't watch eurovision this year but major shoutouts to all the attendees and performers who protested and proved to the EBU that they made the wrong fucking choice in allowing isr to compete

okay i need to talk about an issue

so like does anyone remember the shrek 2 dvd

and how it had this:

and then like…there was for no reason simon cowell

and he seriously sat on a fuckin panel with shrek and fiona like this was a regular fuckin thing for them 

and then like at the end u could choose which act u wanted to win and if u chose a really horrible one simon would throw the letter away and just declare himself the winner

…

we need to talk about this.

I am literally begging yall to STOP excluding Armenia when you talk abt the Eurovision boycott; we are boycotting to support Palestine AND Armenia. not Palestine OR Armenia. please give as much attention to Armenia as anywhere else, please do not stop talking abt Armenia, posting abt Armenia, and boycotting Azerbaijan as much as you do w Palestine and boycotting Israel!

please remember it's BOTH, not one or the other!

so i didn't watch eurovision this year but major shoutouts to all the attendees and performers who protested and proved to the EBU that they made the wrong fucking choice in allowing isr to compete
