Feelings about Bringing Back Moffat For RTD2 + Other Writers I Think Should Get the Chance

Whelp, just found out that Steven Moffat is going to be writing an episode of Fifteen and I'm just like...eh? about the whole prospect. Like, not as terrified as I once might have been but like...hoping he grew as a writer. Because even though I vastly prefer his one-offs to his overarching season ideas...let's not pretend that you couldn't see the warning signs looking back. The focus on either women as mothers (Doctor Dances) women companions as operating in service/deference to the Doctor (Empty Child/Blink) or women as the Time Traveller's Wife (Girl in the Fireplace, Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead). Empty Child/Doctor Dances, Blink, and Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead are all fantastic episodes and I think Blink is the strongest one-off (though let's all remember that the ending was suggested by Gatiss, not Moffat) though I will adore Empty Child/Doctor Dances until I die (though let's not forget that Jack Harkness was an RTD invention).

I really hope he learned his lessons through writing latestage Clara and Bill as companions, but I'm honestly just as scared of his racial undertones as am of RTD's. Let's not forget that both of the black companions under Moffat (Bill&Danny) were both dehumanized/turned into Cybermen in order to service Clara and the Doctor/Missy's arcs (though Bill's ending is far better handled in terms of giving Bill her own ending than Danny's, imo), just as RTD really callously handled Martha's treatment, especially in historical episodes. That is not to say that I don't have some hope due to how Bill's race was handled in Thin Ice, but let's just say I'm cautious about getting super excited like some people are.

All of which is to say...I want Toby Whithouse to write a one-off in the RTD2 Era. Or many. I want his examination of the fucked-up and complicated psychological aspects of the Doctor/Companion relationship and even the Doctor themself (I mean he is the one who wrote School Reunion, God Complex, A Town Called Mercy, Under the Lake/Before the Flood, and Vampires of Venice).

ALSO more women and writers of color. I want to see what kind of new voices in sci-fi can be brought to the table and explore more aspects of their experiences, especially as it pertains to historical/future episodes. I'm done with pretending that Demons of the Punjab wasn't one of the best episodes of Doctor Who, and that was specifically because an Indian writer (Vinay Patel) was brought in to write it. (Also, can we see Vinay back as well? He also wrote Fugitive of the Judoon which was another banger. He's also really good at exploring character feelings/implications of time travel/memory.) I also think that Joy Wilkinson, who wrote the Witchfinders, could be a fun choice as well. I really liked the Witchfinders and I'm curious to see how she might tackle a subject matter like that again.

Lockwood & Co. (Season 1)

TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2023

Lockwood & Co. (Season 1, 2023, UK)

Directors: Joe Cornish, William McGregor & Catherine Morshead

Writers: Joe Cornish, Joy Wilkinson, Ed Hime & Kara Smith

Mini-review:

I enjoyed this a lot more than I expected based on the first teaser! It's fast paced, engaging and very fun, even if it's far from perfect. Sometimes the pace and the developments feel kinda rushed, and it's obvious from the very first episode that the show needed a bigger budget than the one they were given. But I didn't have much problem brushing that off, cause the three characters at the core of it all are just that good. It's a combination of personalities that always works well and the cast pulls it off with great chemistry. I really do think this aspect is what carries the show and makes it so watchable, regardless of its flaws. By the end of it I was actually itching to find and read the books, but I think I'll wait to see whether this gets a second season or not.

Lockwood & Co — Netflix Series | Release Date, Cast, Characters, Plot, Trailer, First looks | Jonathan Stroud |

Netflix published a brief teaser for the upcoming Lockwood & Co on their official YouTube account on October 26, 2022, even though there isn’t a full-length trailer yet. Anthony Lockwood and Lucy Carlyle are facing a fierce, shrieking spirit in the teaser. 

Lockwood attempts to slay the beast with some impressive combat skills, but the enraged entity causes Lucy to fall over a stair railing, and she clings on precariously above a precipitous drop. Lockwood returns and grabs Lucy’s hand to pull her to safety just as she is about to slip and take a very bad fall.

The teaser’s final few seconds provide a brief but intriguing piece of show lore: When Lockwood asks Lucy if the ghost touched her, Lucy responds, “Of course not! If it had, she would be dead.”

Cast

The trio consists of Ali Hadji-Heshmati (Alex Rider) as George Cubbins, Cameron Chapman (Bridgerton) in his first acting role as Anthony Lockwood, and Ruby Stokes (Bridgerton) as young psychic Lucy Carlyle. 

They are joined by Ivanno Jeremiah as Inspector Barnes from Humans, Luke Treadaway as The Golden Blade from Attack the Block, Morven Christie as Penelope Fittes from The Bay, and Ben Crompton as Julius Winkman from Game of Thrones.

Quick Doctor Who women fact check

I know I replied to this shit a while back but I'm gonna make my own post to avoid giving it more notes.

It is factually true that Doctor Who did not have any women write between 2008 and 2015. It sucks.

This is not, however, solely a Moffat problem. It's an industry problem where women are underrepresented in genre media, including across Doctor Who.

So, numbers. In Russell T Davies' era, ONLY ONE WOMAN wrote for Doctor Who, Helen Raynor (lately a TERF who stands with Rowling and campaigns against trans kids going to the bathroom, too, before you decide to stan). She wrote four episodes, two part stories for the third and fourth series.

Moffat went around asking for women to write the show but has talked about having a hard time finding people who he wanted and were interested. When he did finally get Catherine Tregenna and Sarah Dollard in for the ninth series, he even mentioned Tregenna had been asked before, having "turned us down in the past, but I talked her into it with an idea she really liked." Dollard for her part ended up contributing two episodes for the ninth and tenth series, and was joined in the latter by Rona Munro, who became the only person to write both the classic and new series.

Chris Chibnall’s era of Doctor Who foregrounded giving a break to new talent unlike RTD and Moffat who tended to get established writers. That meant getting the first poc to write Who as well as seven women in Malorie Blackman, Joy Wilkinson, Nina Metivier, Charlene James, Maxine Alderton, and Ella Road. That said unlike Davies and Moffat he cowrote with most of them, with only three episodes in his run credited solely to women.

Directors fare better, with series 1 and 2 under Davies and series 6 and 7 under Moffat being the only series of Doctor Who not having episodes directed by women. Rachel Talalay of course deserves a special shout-out for being the definitive Moffat/Capaldi director and being the only woman to direct finales (for series 8, 9, and 10!) or Christmas specials for the series!

Hiring people from marginalized groups is always a struggle we can all do better on, especially in industries that are overwhelmingly dominated by white dudes. To put it on the shoulders of one man for failing when he put work in to fix that because Tumblr has a hate boner is deeply silly.

I am so excited to announce that my full-length poetry book "The Weeds Grow Anyway" is available for preorder. This first edition handmade Iimited run is going to feature a linocut printed soft cover and I will be binding the books at home.

A blurb about the book, by Mallory Everhart:

Nico Wilkinson's debut full-length poetry collection "The Weeds Grow Anyway' is a celebration of that which lies beyond resilience in the face of adversity: audacity. Writing from Colorado Springs amidst a time of anti-trans violence, they examine the relationship of trans people to this world through the lens of nature's relationship to humans. What makes a plant into a weed, something deemed unacceptable to the landscape? The poetry within much like the local flora and trans people who live there is rooted in the experience of queering the inhospitable landscape that is Colorado Springs.

About the book's creation:

Last year I made one hardcover copy of The Weeds Grow Anyway (pictured above) to visualize the manuscript I'd been working on as a real tangible book. In doing so, I remembered just how much lenjoy the bookmaking process. I realized it would be a joy to make these books myself.

I will share the book-making process as I go on my social media, mostly Instagram (and possibly YouTube, coming soon). If you are a poet who would like to learn how to create their own books, follow along and show you how.

This book is made possible by community. By the people I create alongside, the people who support my work, who connect with me about the experiences we have living in this world. It is such a gift to finally be able to share these words with my community, including poems that have been known and loved, and many, many poems that have never been seen before. I can't wait for you to read them.

The photos of the first hardcover handmade book above are by my friend Corri Mercy.

inspired by me seeing les miserables live for the first time and then crying during bring him home, so uh, you're welcome?

Growing up, Wayne was forced to go to church every Sunday morning and he didn’t like it one bit. Didn’t like the stiffly pressed dress shirts his mama made him wear, didn’t like the long, boring sermons filled with stories of sin and catastrophes, didn’t like being forced into a religion he might not even believe in.

His time in Vietnam did nothing to strengthen his faith, quite the opposite in fact. And once he witnessed his sister, the ray of light in his life, die at the hands of a relentless disease, Wayne decided once and for all that there was no such thing as a God.

Still, he finds himself praying on a night in late March.

So many things have happened in such a short amount of time and Wayne can’t even begin to wrap his head around it. All that he really understands that an earthquake destroyed his home and that Eddie is still nowhere to be found.

Eddie.

Wayne had never thought to be a father, just a well-meaning family member taking care of his nephew after his sister passed away and his brother-in-law drank himself into oblivion. But the kid grew on him, and now he saw Eddie as his own flesh and blood, his own son.

And all these, these lies that those town folk have spread about him over the last few days, it makes Wayne’s blood boil, both in anger and in fear.

Because what if they’d gotten to him?

What if they took advantage of the whole town collapsing on itself, just to exact the revenge they so desperately thought was necessary?

What if…

No, he can’t think like that. There’s still hope for Eddie. People have been finding loved ones underneath the rubble all day, there’s still a chance. Eddie is young, he’s strong, he can survive.

He can still come home.

Wayne will do whatever it takes to get Eddie, his goddamn son, home.

And so, Wayne casts his eyes to the ink black night sky and prays.

Bring him peace.

Bring him joy.

Bring him home.

I know this is a really vague question, but what are some possible ways having BPD could effect someone with DID or OSDD?

i think it would turn identity confusion up to 100. people with BPD tend to experience identity disturbances as one or more of these four factors:

role absorption ("defin[ing] themselves in terms of a single role or cause"),

painful incoherence (distress over identity confusion),

inconsistency (an "objective incoherence in thought, feeling, and behavior")

and lack of commitment

(from Wilkinson-Ryan & Western, 'Identity Disturbance in BPD: An Empirical Investigation', American Journal of Psychiatry (2000))

if someone had BPD with comorbid DID/OSDD, we can see how these factors would be amplified and probably split among parts.

mood swings would probably also be split among parts (e.g., one part holds anger, another joy, etc.). there might be parts who specifically deal with the intense anger people with BPD can experience.

fear of abandonment probably plays into trauma (neglect, emotional and physical especially). i can imagine young parts would experience this symptom especially strongly.

parts may come into conflict over impulsivity, especially as BPD impulsivity is damaging.

emptiness may accompany dissociation, especially depersonalisation.

and of course BPD dissociation will be a much more prominent symptom with a comorbid dissociative disorder!

you may find this post on BPD & DID comorbidity by this-is-not-dissociative useful.

𝐑𝐄-𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐑𝐎𝐃𝐔𝐂𝐈𝐍𝐆… 𝐌𝐘 𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐊 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐔𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄 𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐆𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐋 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐑, 𝐅𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐗 𝐖𝐈𝐋𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐎𝐍

❝ Felix was well-known in Hill Valley only because of his parents. Born to Rebecca and Tom Sturgess, Felix had been abandoned on the steps of the local police station by his parents when he was only three weeks old and eventually adopted by the Wilkinsons. He could've been known for so many other things - being an amazing photographer, being incredibly socially awkward and incredibly sarcastic when he did talk to people, or even (not that he wanted anyone to know this at all) being one of the only gay kids at Hill Valley High School. But no. All anyone at Felix’s school (and in his hometown, for that matter) really knew about him was that he was the kid whose parents had abandoned him, who hadn’t even cared enough about him to see him through his first year of life.

Though Felix genuinely loved and appreciated his adoptive parents, who were kind and supportive and loved him like he was their own, he had always wondered about his birth parents, the people who had created him only to leave him alone in the world, however briefly. He had tried, more than once, to find out any information about them, but it hadn’t been easy, seeing as Rebecca and Tom had skipped town hours after abandoning their son and no one in town seemed inclined to even acknowledge that they existed, at least when it wasn’t in relation to Felix being “the boy who’d been abandoned”. All he had ever been able to discover about them was their names, a general consensus that they were not good people, and two yellowed yearbook pictures he’d managed to procure from the local library. Not exactly enough to satisfy his curiosity.

Eventually, Felix had resigned himself to never learning anything about where he came from, choosing instead to love the parents who actually wanted him. By the time he was seventeen, he was focusing on nothing but earning good enough grades to be able to get into the art school of his choice once he graduated and earning enough money from his part-time job at the local mall’s movie theatre to pay the tuition for at least his first year. Slowly, life faded into a monotonous blur of the same events day after day, with the only thing Felix found joy in was taking pictures and secretly sneaking looks at Marty McFly during the classes they had together.

Until Felix wanders out into the mall parking lot one night to smoke after his graveyard shift, and sees Doc Brown, the crazy old inventor who nobody in town but his crush really tolerates, being shot to death by a group of men in a large van while standing near an odd-looking DeLorean. While rushing over to help the old man, Felix winds up yanked into the weird car by Marty McFly himself, who just appears out of nowhere, and somehow, the two boys find themselves thirty years in the past. Because, Marty explains to Felix, Doc Brown has converted his car into a motherfucking time machine.

Which is all well and good, and Felix doesn’t have an incredibly hard time believing it - he’s read a lot of sci-fi novels, so under other circumstances, this would be a dream come true. But they are also stuck in 1955 with a broken car and no way to get home, Marty has somehow managed to prevent his parents’ meet-cute by getting himself hit with his own grandfather’s car, and Felix is now forced to spend time with his own teenage parents, who are turning out to be just as self-entered and irresponsible as everyone in present-day Hill Valley has always told him.

Plus, Felix now has to help Marty play matchmaker for his parents while simultaneously hiding his feelings and watching Marty’s own mother flirt with him.

He’s starting to wish he could go back to being the invisible, bitter, abandoned kid. ❞

Tom Wilkinson was such a wonderful actor. He had a softness to him that made any role he did all the more deeply felt, no matter the emotion of the scene or personality of his character. I mean he could do real anger or apathy and that softness about him would make the contrast all the more stark, raw, human.. when he played it sad, it made you just ache… and of course that softness at other times made him just radiate pure delight. What an absolute joy to watch. I could never get enough of his work. He will be sorely missed. Thankfully he’ll live on in some way through his wonderful work. ❤️

#I have had such a crush on him since I was I don’t even know how old #some time in junior high #I’d go awhile without watching his movies but the moment I saw him on screen or a photo or just remembered him 🥰🥰 #I really enjoy his work there need was enough tbh #a cute boy #a wonderful craftsman #tom wilkinson

About

The Circle is a way for the creators to showcase a vital component of the '70s – smoking weed. According to the show creators, the blunt or joint is passed around ahead of the person speaking on camera, thus never shown. The circle usually takes place in the basement and features four people, though these rules are bent on occasion. On special occasions, the circle has been used to show the characters partaking in consuming other things than weed, such as dinner, alcohol, ice cream, cigars, hash brownies (accidentally) or nothing at all. During such scenes, adults also participate.

On occasion, the circle scenes are followed by scenes where the characters act sober while being still high, but more often that not, no one seems to suffer any ill effects after the fact. A notable case was the second-to-last episode where a particularly potent "stash" was acquired by the gang when Fez's friend from his homeland visited. Hyde, who was unquestionably the most frequent pot smoker in The Circle, actually quit smoking for a period of time because he got too high.

The Circle also remained in the '90s and '2000s, where the gang would still smoke and occasionally drink.

Rules

The circle is not:

An area where people can talk about their feelings.

A place where people can cry.

For the faint of heart.

A place where people can grope each other.

But it is:

Where laughing occurs.

Where random stuff is discussed.

Where some of the dumbest decisions are made.

Very candid.

One of the most well-known elements of the show.

A place to sing random songs.
