Thinking again about Linda staring Wally down during their HONEYMOON and saying "I'm not having sex with you until you're back to normal, stop looking like a teenager and sort out this event silliness, that's not the man I married". (Sins of Youth you will always be hilarious)
Anyway Wally is 100% the Most Thirty-Something of his age cohort and Linda supporting him and the kids about being a Happily Married Thirty Something is the funniest shit ever, given he's the one of the group with the most control over his age presentation.
The rest of the NTT cohort still all running around pretending they are anywhere between 21 and 30 years old depending on the story, while Wally's going "yeah I'm a married Midwestern Dad in the trades (both mechanics and Speed Force trade skills) what of it?"

So ten's face coming back had nothing to do about closure or accepting regeneration as a natural cycle, letting go and moving forward like every face that had come before or after ..
instead he's just sticking around.. indefinitely..
cool.
i'm gonna lie down.

while i’m a strong believer that donna did not lie to the doctor in WBY and she really doesn’t remember anything, I think ten’s regeneration was such a powerful event that she remembered at least some of it. not necessarily the physical regeneration itself, but his feelings- the loneliness, the fear, the despair. which is why she did not want him to “die” alone in the giggle.

listen. as much as I know (and love) that this doctor who special was v much trans rights save lives in the very blatant way that leaves no room for doubt for any wilful misinterpretation with the erasure of transness from the narrative esp in the terf supreme climate which was very necessary and important, and as much as I understand that dw is abt logical reasoning things making sense in a very (emphasis on very) abstracty hand-wavey way and you'd come up blank if you try to get into specifics ... i have just one question.
why did Donna and Rose Noble tell the doctor "we just let it go. you wouldn't understand as a male-presenting doctor." like.. that bit truly ???? me and I just didn't understand like... what does. male-presenting have to do w anything.. I am genuinely asking. i get the logic of the rest of the things: Donna passed down the metacrisis (sp? it's been years since doctordonna ep so I'm rusty) thingy to rose so they're both able to be share the weight of it without dying.. is it the extra regeneration energy theyre able to let go without any hassle? that's such a skill issue for a male-presenting doctor? ... if that then,, why so? what does being male-presenting have to do w anything is. my question. bc the logic is supposed to be handwavey I know.. but that part just puzzled me like is there some secret caveat I'm not getting?

I keep seeing things about a "rumored" UNIT spinoff and guys
That's been confirmed. Like for real confirmed. Kate Stewart is main characters.
So if you're wondering why the UNIT set seemed way too detailed and why there was a lot of emphasis put on some UNIT supporting cast. That would be why.

a few months ago I ran into one of the students from my very first year of teaching and he was talking about the first day and how he was like "damn you just made us start reading right away no get to know you game or nothing" and the gentle outrage in his cadence made me SCREAM-laugh

bitches will find comfort in journaling their most intimate thoughts and keeping track of their life and staple every memory neatly together just for a year's worth of diary entries to rot under their bed and bend and smudge beyond recognition and dragging the mattress above them down with them cuz not only is the fight against ephemerality pointless but it will damage everything around it
