'The Church on Ruby Road' has a thin plot, an underdeveloped threat, and a rather abrupt ending, but it succeeds where something like 'The Woman Who Fell to Earth' failed because it is very much a story about the new Doctor becoming friends with their new companion. The Doctor and Ruby are the focus and priority, this is the their story, how they meet, how they become friends, and why they end up travelling together. It is all about establishing that crucial connection between the main characters, but also the chemistry between the leads. Like the best new doctor/companion/era episodes, it knows when to just stop, take a moment, and let the leads just play off each other.

Loving the one that got away but knowing it's not possible to love them like that in this lifetime has got to be my favorite trope ever like it's SO painful

I do love how half of the @best-overplayed-song tournament is just Fleetwood Mac songs

stella x silva👀🤭
ok, this one i have no hot takes because they're not remotely canon, BUT
BUT
the scene where Bloom is like "stella what have you been doing in Silva's house???" remains the funniest scene in the entire show.
They're hot, Stella has mommy & daddy issues for days and I think she deserves to fuck her ex's dad.

for the record I think wind turbines are beautiful and are not a stain on any landscape and the sounds they make are beautiful and whenever I see one I am filled with love for human innovation and hope for the future of clean energy and if they needed to be built close to my house I would go YAYY ^_^ WAHOO ^_^ WIND TURBINE!!

I think we should all talk about how Wee John is super working the eyeliner in these eps
(slay)
Considering we know at some point in the season we're gonna see him like this
I think it would be very funny if instead of this being some special dress up one time performance thing his makeup just gets gradually more and more dramatic every episode until he has evolved into his final form, this absolutely majestic flamboyant drag queen

If Shane Madej and Jonny Sims ever decide to collaborate on something I think all of reality would collapse into a shower of sparkling dust from the sheer, insane power of all that lore

So I heard that recently, the creator of The Backyardigans, Janice Burgess, passed away.
I loved that show and it's characters ever since I was little, still do to this day, it was creative and fun, I still love watching my favorite episodes and listening to my favorite songs.
I made a couple of doodles of the characters at least last year, so I'll try to find them (I don't remember where they are ): )
I hope she knew how her show impacted so many of us, even beyond the USA, and I hope she's resting easy.

I feel like non Australians don’t truly appreciate the allure and sophistication of the mullet…. Mullet baby they don’t love you like we love you, the trend will pass and they’ll forget you but not us we’re ride or die
