Okay this is some bullshit so let’s talk about it.

(DISCLAIMER: Twitter is not the space to go to for fully formed thoughts. Jay might have a much better point than this, but I think this tweet is still a good starting point for an important discussion)

15 is not more emotionally sensitive than other Doctors. What he is, is not as afraid to show that sensitivity. If you think other doctors would not be emotionally affected by the things 15 has been affected by, I don’t know what to tell you. They would be, but what they might not do is openly cry.

Now, there is a valid argument that this is a result of the short episode count—that there have been very few fun adventures where The Doctor can just do what they love to do. Every episode has to be BIG and MEANINGFUL and EMOTIONAL because to do otherwise is to risk wasting time you may need for those big moments.

What the problem is NOT, however, is The Doctor crying a lot. I don’t think it should be disregarded that people are finding very specifically a black man crying “the wrong direction to take the character”

That needs to be taken in the context of black men being particularly stuffed into the expectations of toxic masculinity. Black men are expected to be more tough, more violent, more aggressive, and less emotional, less sensitive, less open than white men.

What’s also interesting to me here is the context of how unobtrusive 15’s crying is, but even that is too much apparently?

Jay Exci appears to think The Doctor should no longer be affected by things to this extent, at least not this often—but the story with 14 was explicitly that The Doctor never let themselves FEEL their pain, not that they didn’t experience it.

The Doctor feels deeply, constantly, for everything and everyone. That’s who they are. Every incarnation of them. The moments they choose to ignore that are when The Doctor fails to uphold the promise of their name.

If you don’t think that would result in a lot of crying, pal I got news for you.

When people say that Jay Exci is a reasonable and fair critic... remember she was accusing people who disagreed with her of doing the equivalent of eating shit.

Jay Exci is basically the definition of a gatekeeper. It's not over whether you enjoy the era or not, it's over this sneering only I can be right, my standards are objective fact, you can't enjoy media differently to me. This is the sort of snobbish toxic fandom which is dragging DW and other shows down.

every time I see someone with a doctor who take or theory or anything that puts any weight whatsoever on 13s run I like immediately stop reading and just skim the rest of it. No hate to them I just

- didn't like the run

- gave up watching it during the timeless child arc cause the lore inaccuracies pissed me off

- generally ignore its existence cause it's easier

#to me everything osst like her first season is not canon sry #i didnt like the direction the show took i didnt like thewriting style or the general production style #it kinda felt like a weird dream id have when i was ill and had just been watching a bubch of dr who #also im a jay exci fan forever and always so the 5 Hour Dr Who Video Essay is a big part of my dislike #they made some great points and put ibto words loads of vague feelings id had about the series in a way i really liked #i only realised recently that a lot of dw tumblr is actually way into 13s run lmao so maybe this is a controversial take #but if it is then BREAKING MY SILENCE EXCLAMATION MARK EXCLAMATION MARK SHOCKED FACE SERIOUS FACE F WORD FACE #sorry non dw mutuals for putting more dw on your dash also trust me on this im really correct and cool and you agree with me B) #i also really hope this doesn't come off as passive aggressive towards anyone other than chris chibnall idgaf what you guys vibe with #anyway #dw #doctor who #look. chibnall made some wild lore decisions in his run that imo he did not by any means earn. so for that fuck you chibnall

Minecraft feels like it's missing something and i'm pretty sure it isn't "add a bunch of new items"

#i do think jay exci's vid got me thinking about a lot of it like beds and food #but also i just don't feel super extrinsically motivated though like it's probably better to seperate sandbox & adventure minecraft #also like i want to play on servers with my friends but i don't know what to do #and like a lot of things are kind of broken like elytras (particularly with mending) #like you're always going to run out of things to do #also like you can't add things without adding items #but like if you have food with seasons or thirst just ... why? #probably some just like “this feels different and is bad” #also play with graves it's a based datapack

im genuinely really disappointed neil gaiman turned out to be a zionist but honestly it wasn't all that surprising. i dont know enough about him to make judgements but he's a famous author and british so like... makes sense

#not everyone can be an epic and kewl leftie like me /j #critxt #im rambling a bit more today but hey posting is fun who gives a shit lol #all brits are awful (true and real) ((ok im joking some of my favourite people are british)) #like uhh... jay exci is british i think... she drank beans once.. #ummmmmmm

Jay Exci trying to defend attacking Chibnall in replying to a DW Twitter post on his birthday. They really are a nasty piece of work. It shows further that years ago they had made their whole online persona about hating on him. And when called out for it their response just gets weird. They even deleted the post that started this off, which is very telling.

Honestly at this point i don't trust any youtuber with dr who

Only ppl with good opinons on dr who are my mutuals actually

#except jay exci she knows whats up (except when she doesnt) #anyway hate forming opinions of videos i havent watched but unless the takeaway of the video is 'calling it pro life is reductive' idk to #if there is that nuance pls tell me i love listening to miss z #but im a connoisseur of 12 Clara character drama ive gone over kill the moon already #and the idea of listening to a youtuber bash on the moffat era leaves an unpleasent taste #rambles #my 2 cents
