#but honestly it’s timeless

[incorrigible-groupie]

No wonder why Fourteen is the reincarnation that needs to heal, that needs to stop, that needs to retire… considering everything that happened to Thirteen.

Every reincarnation had their hard moments, but I feel like Thirteen really went through A LOT.

After all :

she fell from her TARDIS just after she regenerate

she had to fight evil while still regenerating, a thing the Doctor rarely did with new people around

she had to make her sonic screwdriver herself

she lost her TARDIS (almost twice)

she made a friend she can never see again or it would destroy the universe

she had to face the consequences of her mercy

she learnt that the one who once was her friend is back

also yes, Gallifrey is destroyed

also also, she discovered she had other regenerations but zero memories about it

also also also, she learnt that she wasn’t from the dimension she had always known

she was so knock-out by this new that she didn’t try to escape from prison

she spent A FEW DECADES in prison

surrounded by some of her worst enemies

while trying to find more about her past, the Flux was coming

she learnt that she was the reason the Flux was created

until she ended the Flux, she didn’t take a break

she was splint in three

one of herself was tortured physically and mentally, mind and body destroyed and reborn over and over again

she had to see the erasure of multiple planets and species

everything she knew about time were lies

while struggling with her feelings towards a human she knew she couldn’t grow with, some of her ex-companions reappeared

she had been forced regenerated

while trying to free one of the great mysteries of the universe, her nemesis used it to wound her fatally

she regenerated alone, not wanting Yaz to be the new Rose, or Clara

I loved how caring, dynamic, curious and positive this incarnation was, despite the fact that she had no idea Who she was herself. It showed a vulnerability in the Doctor that we don’t often see and her lack of hubris was refreshing (considering it was the thing I hated the most about Ten).

Even if those seasons had many, many inconsistencies, unclear timelines and strange ideas, I loved her era and how Russel T Davies showed her trauma through Fourteen’s eyes, proving that this was the last straw that broke the Doctor in two (hehe) and how much he needed to rest. It was an astounding performance by David Tennant who didn’t act like Ten but indeed like Fourteen, it was positively insane.

However, I’m also really scared that Russel just throws away everything else that happened to Thirteen. Especially the good. Fourteen does have a family now, but he better not forgets his « fam ». He better not forgets he was a brilliant woman. Perhaps the strongest doctor.

Given that my post about why you are not obligated to blog about Current Events (whatever they are at any given time) is going around again, I'd like to say the same thing from a slightly different angle and state what you ARE obligated to do.

You are still not obligated to blog about ANY specific subject, no matter how serious, no matter how urgent, no matter how grave. You never will be. The impact of social media on real world atrocities has the potential to be great, but it is cumulative. No one is going to die in a ditch somewhere, barely uttering the tragic final words, "if only...if only...tumblr users wormhentaiafficionado and mothmanbutthole...posted about how sad they are...then maybe things would be different..." - nor are policymakers going to change their minds because some tweet has 749,845 cumulative likes and retweets instead of 750,000. Make no mistake, if you have the energy to be sharing these kinds of things, it can be good to do! We live in a society, it's always good to help where you can, even if all you can do is show public support for people who are hurting - but if you can't do that, for any reason, you're not obligated to. Period. End of.

What are you obligated to do?

1. Give people the benefit of the doubt. Social media accounts are not most people's entire lives. Just because someone isn't blogging about whatever tragedy is occurring does not mean they don't care. Sometimes it does mean that, sure, and that sucks - but not only are you not going to change that by yelling at them, sometimes it means they care too much. Sometimes it means they're closer to it than you assumed and need a moment to think about something else, anything else. Sometimes it means it's not safe for them to be blogging about it, be it due to abusive family potentially finding out, being at risk of getting fired and quite possibly dying of poverty sooner rather than later, or even taking very illegal direct action that they do not want to be linked to on record in even the vaguest possible way. Sometimes it means dealing with it is their day job and they're on the internet after a long and exhausting day of trying to make things better. You don't know. You'll never know unless they decide to tell you. No one owes you that explanation. You are obligated to make peace with that fact.

2. Slow the fuck down.

Listen. When bad things happen, from natural disasters, to manmade horrors beyond our comprehension, it's only normal to get scared and desperate to do something, anything about it. That heightened emotional state is very vulnerable, and because of that, there will always be people out there looking to take advantage of the chaos for ulterior motives - and no matter how good your intentions, and in fact no matter how right you are in your values and at the core of your strategy, you will never be immune to garbage-in-garbage-out. Misinformation can be deadly, even in the hands of someone who means well. You need to pause long enough to sort out the garbage. You need to learn to fight the impulse to trust every single post that tells you that your share/comment/etc. is URGENT and WILL mean the difference between life and death for someone, somewhere. Do your fact checks. Scan for dogwhistles before you end up passing around a post that implies [insert group that is marginalized in most of the English-speaking world but has hegemonic power in some other part of the world and is committing some atrocity there] is coming after you next if you stay silent. Vet charity and advice links before you accidentally send scared, desperate, and vulnerable people to a scammer - or worse, hand them over to a honeypot operation or give them a recipe for poisonous "medicine".

Or, to put it another way, you are obligated to make an attempt to stay informed enough to avoid making things materially worse. You are not obligated to doomblog. In fact, doomblogging can be antithetical to your obligation to not make things worse. Choosing neutrality in times of great tragedy and injustice is bad, yes, but you should immediately be wary of anyone who says that simply not blogging about a subject - let alone not sharing a specific post - is inherently "choosing neutrality".

So remember: breathe. Be careful out there. Mourn for the people that whatever atrocity has this or my other post circulating has taken from us or will take from us, and do your best to be kind to the people who are still alive - and remember that kindness includes using social media responsibly.

#current events #internet safety #serious tag #on 10/27/2023 - this post brought to you by the fact that i've seen multiple people #who i know mean well #pass around full tilt new world order conspiracy propaganda shit because it was hidden in support for palestine #i don't mean ''israel is committing genocide'' i'm not denying that #that is very much happening and it's horrifying #but i mean full on ''(((They're))) controlling the whole world's media to cover it up and you're next if you don't share this post #you're the last bastion of hope we have if we don't want to lose all we hold dear all over the world'' level shit #and it was honestly enough to make me dissociate #but i leave it generic because i know it will be relevant to something else in the future #and like. bruh. generic timeless question. if you'd rather people be passing around misinformation that does more harm than good #up to and including - and i cannot stress this enough #anything from SCAM CHARITIES to CRYPTO HATE PROPAGANDA to POISON RECIPES PASSED OFF AS MEDICINE #than just...not using this ONE aspect of their lives to talk about [INSERT ISSUE HERE] #....do YOU care? or do you just want an excuse to FEEL like you're helping by micromanaging strangers?

RVBtober 8+9 > fall + revelation "You know, sometimes, when somebody falls off a cliff in movies, he's actually just over the edge, hanging on a tree branch or something." "Nope. He's definitely dead."

... and he is. presumably.

(also if you ever decide to try and make a 2-page comic in 2 days even if half of it is just a paintover. don't do that. that's the devil talking)

#rvb #red vs blue #rvbtober #meta #simmons #grif #grimmons #dick simmons #dexter grif #mine #*23 #comic #OOOH MY god i finally finished this piece of shit. i debated just posting the last pic bc i like it a lot but then i'd have made those 2 #other ones for nothing... lol i almost gave up on this like 20 times i don't have the comic makers temperament. anyway #this is classic angst fuel material but its timeless. its good. #i've read some 'grif dies/is presumed dead/theyre seperated' things and 1 thing i love abt them is that simmons always goes insane in them. #grif is his emotional support boy you can NOT seperate them. like that fanart with nervous hare simmons and cute bunny grif #its them boiled down to their essence. hare simmons bunny grif. i sound insane rn but hare simmons bunny grif! #those 2 frames where maine grabs grif and he falls down. honestly i love them sooo much even tho they're just kinda goofy sketches. wah #also rip maine my baby. you didn't deserve to go like that. god he died submerged in water and bleeding out. #also its fun that simmons' voice is all screechy but grif is all wobbly. he's freestyling across the upper ranges. siMmoOoOoNs! vs GRIF!!!

history 101 💛

This was originally just supposed to be me having fun exploring what Ephemer would be like as a teacher but it got a bit out of hand in a good way (but I think I spent way too long on this lol)

Notes:

I wholeheartedly believe that teaching is Eph’s true passion. While writing Overmorrow, I came to realize that his role as a teacher/master is necessary in ensuring that light and the will of the keyblade lives on, but it’s also something he would just genuinely enjoy doing on a personal level. Aside from being able to infodump to his heart’s content (that’s a big deal! 😄), he can also help, inspire, and lead as a teacher! I think if he does actually establish the Keyblade order/academy in canon, it would be his pride and joy

Eph’s actual classroom may not have looked like kh3/dr’s, but I like to believe it was probably similarly designed. (He learned a lot about teaching from Hestia 🥰)

Lyra first appeared here :) the rest of the students are new, I made them up on the spot

my ass could not have handled making Overmorrow as a webcomic

#khux #khml #ephemer #overmorrow #but can also be canon! #my art #my posts #timeless child #lyra oc #ok ok secret tags: #I sound very normal about it in the body of the post but I screamed when I realized eph would /adore/ being a teacher #idk what it was; maybe I was just generally emo at the time but #like obviously you know he would have students and all as a master but. it’s different when you’ve lost everything and don’t know what to d #in order to move forward from there #teaching just feels /so right/ for him #the kid who questioned everything; who reached the truth; who was chosen to lead and survive and succeed #the kid who helped and cared for everyone around him #that’s teacher material! he’s a teacher!!!! #and honestly after he spent so much of khux doubting himself the fact that he can do /this/ with his whole heart makes me a bit teary eyed #ok I’m done that’s my blorbo dump for the day thank yooouu

oda stop being a weirdo challenge

#this is kinda about last chapter but honestly. timeless statement #one piece spoilers #just in case

[73chn1c0l0rr3v3l]

Every time I see people say they want the Master to be the Timeless Child I think about the idea of a refugee child who was kidnapped & tortured & had their mind wiped... & it made them evil.

Not really a message I'd love, if I'm gonna be honest.

#doctor who #timeless child #the timeless child is actually super important to me okay #sometimes it just feels like people just want the master to be the Most Woobie honestly

imagine being jonathan sims season 4 for a sec. you’ve been brought back to life to be the sugar baby of eldritch deity nosey bitch. side effect you’re angrily mowing a shopping cart around Tesco because a man’s gotta eat. u get like tortellini but realize that you forget your favorite flavor of trauma (and the marinara sauce) in aisle 2. you slurp a paranormal experience out the head of some random patron as Shape of You blasts over the speakers. you get into the driver’s seat on the right side cause to top it all off you’re british. turn on the radio to hear the news or something (that coma put you six months behind on current events) but end up crying to Happier by Bastille bc the coworker that used to simp for you serves Depression & your entire department is threatening to put you down

i’ve literally just decided that the timeless child is the master & not the doctor. 🎀💗🌷like what’s chibnall gonna do i’m just choosing to live in the better timeline in my head and the man can’t stop me

#doctor who #anti chibnall #doctor who opinions #russell t davies 5ever #i’m half joking but really i’m not #timeless child arc #timeless child #i’m not even anti timeless child bc honestly like let people enjoy things but just personally i’ve decided to live in my own little world #personal #rosey rants #if anyone wants to tell me why it’s a good arc pls do i’m open to it #but like lowkey #would the master have not been so much better of a choice #i also just don’t know about living in a world where hartnell isn’t the first doctor ?? idk canon changes so much it truly doesnt matter but #something something it’s special being apart of a story that has so many variations #across generations #and can keep going and going because of how malleable it is #…still

if you want to provide that list of 13’s episodes i would love it as a crash course<33 i’ve been meaning to catch up but haven’t had the time and the End Of The Semester is here so i probably won’t have time for an actual catch up until break. in like 3 weeks:( also for that earlier ask, i watched the special with absolutely 0 leadup besides a vague memory of 13’s first season and the stuff i’ve been lightly spoiled on as a result of existing On Here and was not really confused at all, though i definitely want to go back and watch the 13->14 regeneration scene, so it’s definitely not super heavy on stuff from 13 yet!

thank you for enabling me anon i owe you my life <3

this list has both episodes that are important to the plot and episodes that i personally enjoy, and i'll mark the plot relevant ones in bold

1. the woman who fell to earth

2. the ghost monument

3. demons of the punjab

4. kerblam!

5. the witchfinders

6. it takes you away

7. the battle of ranskoor av kolos - season finale so i'm including it but not terribly important to the whole thing

7. spyfall pt1 and 2 - both important to the plot and a personal favorite

8. nikola tesla's night of terror

9. fugitive of the judoon

10. the haunting of villa diodati

11. the timeless children - not a good episode per se but you have to watch it to understand things (even if the things in question suck so bad)

12. the flux (aka s13 from the halloween apocalypse to the vanquishers)

this one is weird because it's a series of interconnected episodes, so you can't really pick and choose. its weird and confusing but i still recommend it because of dan my best friend dan

13. eve of the daleks - my absolute favorite episode of the entire 13 era

14. the power of the doctor

#fair warning its been a bit since i watched seasons 11 and 12 so i might be misremembering things #but if you're not vibing with the episodes i didnt mark in bold they're skippable as well #dw #and yeah the specials can be watched without the context of 13s regeneration! #honestly all of doctor who is like that you can start with whoever #though i do think 15 is going to get into 13's eventually due to the nature of the timeless children changing the context of dw #in a pretty major way #anyway i hope you have fun with 13 anon! i love her

At long last…

I was able to do something that I’ve always wanted to do…

Talk about Ephemera for 20+ pages straight!!!

(half of it’s actually images but it feels good to say 20+ pages)

I hope you learn and feel things while reading it 🥰

no images version | most of the images in the document

#ephemer #khux #kh union cross #kh analysis #YAAAY YAY IT’S DONE!! this started out as a mini project but of course it evolved the more I fell down the rabbit hole #I love ephemera dearly so it felt SO good to delve into this #honestly doing this made me love him even more #there’s more I could say but I wanted to really stay focused on the character arc itself #without going off into tangents about /everything else/ I love about him #I may also add a link to a version without images later for easier readability; it's about 10 pages #and maybe the powerpoint as well once I clean it up #aka all the images I included #(side note: my student side keeps kicking me for not using times new roman and proper citations for this lol; it’s been hammered into myhea #I'm going to get a good grade in ephemera; something that is both normal to want and possible to achieve #okay bye now love you 💖 #timeless child #my posts #chi infodumps
