My favourite TV Shows are Doctor Who (both Classic and New), M*A*S*H, Star Trek (TOS) and Red Dwarf.

I reblog heaps of other stuff as well.

Have a nice day everyone! :)

I love when people call Trapper a lesbian ally bc it’s so true lmao. Other characters would be overly supportive and weird about it, but Trapper would be like “get any good pussy lately?” and hand you a beer. King shit

okay it’s come to my attention that absolutely NONE OF YOU know ANYTHING about how cutie marks work. let me say this simply. a cutie mark isn’t a job being assigned, it’s a special TALENT OR SKILL that the pony enjoys. Most of the time it has a directly transferable job for that skill, like if you enjoy baking and are super good at it WOW! baker. If you are really good at writing and telling stories, author. However, there are some cutie marks that could go multiple ways.

twilight sparkle has exceptional magic ability, so she became a scholar, but she could really do anything that required a good magic skill. same with rainbow dash, her weather controlling job isn’t directly linked to her cutie mark, but it does fit the bill for the job.

i was posed the question of what would a murderer pony’s cutie mark be and wouldn’t everyone know. NO. if somehow murder were to be a special skill, the cutie mark might be something like a knife or a shovel. other ponies might just assume you’re good a cooking or gardening. now with cutie marks like apple jacks, their family has a ‘green thumb’ kind of deal so obviously the cutie mark would be hereditary.

so, the reason i made this post. walter white pony’s cutie mark would NOT be blue crystals. it would be a CHEMISTRY FLASK.

that Brian Eno quote about how whatever you find most repulsive about a medium (film grain, record scratches/fuzz, CDs skipping) will be the first thing you try and emulate once that medium is obsolete because it's "the sign of a moment too powerful for the medium assigned to contain it".... man.......

“Whatever you now find weird, ugly, uncomfortable and nasty about a new medium will surely become its signature. CD distortion, the jitteriness of digital video, the crap sound of 8-bit - all of these will be cherished and emulated as soon as they can be avoided. It’s the sound of failure: so much modern art is the sound of things going out of control, of a medium pushing to its limits and breaking apart. The distorted guitar sound is the sound of something too loud for the medium supposed to carry it. The blues singer with the cracked voice is the sound of an emotional cry too powerful for the throat that releases it. The excitement of grainy film, of bleached-out black and white, is the excitement of witnessing events too momentous for the medium assigned to record them.” -Brian Eno

not usually jealous of alloromantic people but the whole 'you have a guarenteed roommate for the rest of your life, who you presumably are pretty fond of being around' aspect of marriage DOES sound like a sweet deal. i'll give them that one. it seems useful.

She's also publicly stated that she believes that anyone who reads her books or watches her shows and films does so because they explicitly agree with her political views.

There's no "agree to disagree" with her work. Every time you pick up her work or talk about it you are saying to her "I agree with you Joanne" whether you like it or not.

TOM BAKER: The sense of loss is so acute, because I identify with it myself, ‘actuarially speaking’, as they say. I’ll be the next to go, somebody reminded me. ‘Actuarially speaking, Tom, you’ll be the next Doctor Who to die.’ ‘Thanks,’ I said.
INTERVIEWER: Don’t be silly. You’ll live forever.
BAKER: (Smiling) You’re very kind.
INTERVIEWER: You’ve always seemed so comfortable talking about death, though. I mean, you’ve bought your own gravestone [engraved ‘Tom Baker, 1934 –’], which is a bit morbid.
BAKER: I don’t think it’s morbid. I think it’s my idea of a joke, actually – to make jokes about what frightens me most.
INTERVIEWER: Where is your grave now?
BAKER: The grave? The grave’s yawning for me. I don’t know where the grave will be, but the stone is still at that church [St Nicholas, in Boughton Malherbe, in Kent, near Tom’s old home]. I’ve thought of having it sent over [to his East Sussex home], but the postage is excessive. (He points to the door leading to the bar) It’s nearly as big as that door. It’s a beautiful stone. It had been used before. It’s weathered. I only had my name put on it because I was arsing around, and because I thought those w***ers might sell it to someone else. Then I heard that the rural dean spotted it one day, and he was not amused that someone who’s still alive had bought a gravestone and put their name on it. The church is tyrannical. It’s my gravestone. Why can’t I put on it what I like? Maybe I should put, ‘Tom Baker – he f***ing likes being dead!’
[...]
BAKER: I have written a letter saying what I would prefer about disposing of me when I die. I was rather touched and intrigued by the mighty John Gielgud – all actors adored him – who left instructions, when he died, that there was to be no funeral and no memorial service. It is said – because he could be terribly funny, in a bitchy way – that his reasoning was: ‘I simply can’t bear the thought of that dreadful John Mills reading some awful poem about walking through the valley of the shadow of death.’
INTERVIEWER: I thought you’d love all that melodrama at your funeral.
BAKER: (Laughs) Well, actually, I said to Sue, ‘I think I should do the readings in advance, and a little homily saying, “You may think I’ve gone, but I’ve got my eye on you,” or “Aren’t the acoustics terrible in here?”, or “I’m talking to you from beyond the grave. Good God! Is that Jon Pertwee over there?!”

What he’d like written in his obituary
This bloke [Anthony Ainley] is past his recommended selling date. I don’t know, I think I might like it said that ‘I hope they weren’t kidding about heaven’, ’cause I want to go to heaven!

cripes. inferno made deeply terrifying by the knowledge that in the web of fear the brigadier went to going to the tardis as a possible avenue for escape and suggested sacrificing the doctor if it came down to it. what is scary about the brigade leader is that there's very little difference between him and the brigadier.

So glad people are talking more and more about Spock getting aggressively hetwashed bc this has been bothering me BADLY for at least twelve years now and as long as people keep talking about it maybe future generations will be less welcoming of this characterization of our misfit Mr Spock

Like I'm not even asking for a gay rendition I'm just literally begging these mfs to stop heterosexualizing a historically ambiguous character with a long history of being read as queer
