Why did I think of nothing but Rose and the Doctor when listening to the new Taylor Swift album??

one thing which i find particularly crazy about the unicorn and the wasp + mummy on the orient express is the fact that agatha christie was still alive when doctor who was created. the show premiered in 1963 and she died in 1976, meaning that there was a thirteen year period in which she could’ve hypothetically watched it, or at least heard of it somehow. dw is literally so old that they can do historical episodes about famous figures who coexisted alongside it. truly bonkers

I really deeply appreciate the storytelling craft that has gone into ensuring that David Tennant is the Doctor forever, and can appear at any time without requiring weird timeline shenanigans. This is fan service, yes, but I'm certain the #1 fan this is servicing is in fact David Tennant.

Funniest thing in peripheral doctor who canon is the cancelled Douglas Adams serial (turned hitchhiker's guide novel) (turned licensed doctor who novel) which revealed that the sport of Cricket was, either through forgotten cultural consciousness or pure random chance, indistinguishable from an incredibly poor-taste reenactment of an intergalactic historic atrocity, and that cricket uniforms happened to look exactly like the uniforms of the butchers who almost wiped out all life in the universe, and that everyone else in the universe is completely disgusted that Earth has a ghoulish sport like this which is why aliens don't come here except to invade England, the country responsible for it

Doctor vs Master in terms of who I'd rather have as an enemy is Master all the fucking way. The thing about The Master is their number one priority is not their moral code or revenge or domination or being a villain no their number 1 priority no matter what is being high camp. If the master was after me I would just clap to lower the lights and make "masochism tango" start playing and then during the dance I'd cuff and collar them with some ridiculously strong stuff and at the end they'd be like "mon chéri...it seems you have foiled me for now, but we shall meet again" and then they'd kiss me hand and I probably would have at least a few years before they show up again. Whereas if you're not already in a deeply codependent situation ship and you piss off The Doctor their number one priority is Fucking Getting You. You can fuck off to the year 6 billion in the 13th dimension and they'll still find your ass and be like "I tripled your lifespan and also gave you anterograde amnesia so everyday you will wake up with fewer and fewer loved ones but the grief will be brand new" like jesus christ man i don't wanna deal with that

One of the best "Doctor Who" running gags is Catherine Tate knowing absolutely nothing about "Doctor Who" lore and David Tennant having the time of his life any time Catherine is asked any DW mythology related question.

the ninth doctor was lowkey so under appreciated. he was the perfect combination of rascal (mostly) benevolent god and slut

50% of doctor who is "the humans are the real monsters and 50% of it is "the monsters with lasers are the real monsters" and you literally never know which one you're gonna get until you get it!

Ten and Donna end up on a fucked up deadly space newlyweds show despite uh. Not being newlyweds but they get almost all the questions right. They start to sweat when the final question is "what's one secret desire you have involving the other?" And Donna writes "sometimes I wish I could occasionally shrink down the doctor real small so I could carry him around in my pocket and make sure he doesn't get lost' while Ten writes "sometimes I wish I was small enough that Donna could carry me around in like a cat backpack or maybe a shirt pocket" and they look at each other like AYYYYYY because not only are they deeply drift compatible they're also fuckin weird about it 💖
