Come to me, my child named off brand pringles

This... this is just my playlist?

I beg your finest pardon?

trying to engage in protest communities has felt like this lately

I love when companions basically get addicted to traveling with the Doctor, but I also love how we finally got to see the flip side of that. Yes Ruby loves the Doctor, and she loved traveling with them, but she also openly admits that she has paranoia now, feels isolated because all of her friends think she’s crazy, and that she’s been having trouble processing what happened to her. We love to see it.

Accurate watching of smiling friends

My husband made me watch smiling friends. We watched the two seasons, one episode after another...

What the hell was that?

DOCTOR WHO | 2.03: THE WELL + TEXT POSTS

Given the moral crisis that 12 was going through immediately after his regeneration, wondering whether or not he was a good man, I find it supremely interesting that the first and one of the only times he gets a flat acknowledgement of that fact is from a Dalek.

And the way it contrasts the scene with 9, another Doctor haunted by his past and the weight of his sins.

He gets told that he would make a good Dalek. He gives in to his hatred and if not for Rose, he would have lost himself in it. If hatred is what makes the Daleks the Daleks , then the companions are what make them the Doctor. That’s the only difference. A good Dalek and a good Dalek.

A mutual of mine told me to post this Doctor Who analysis I wrote of season 1, episode 6: Dalek.

"You would make a good Dalek" Right now, the doctor has just fought the last time war, his species is seemingly all dead expect him. And yet, the creature- that machine that still persists - tells him that he would be one of the "good" of their species for telling it bluntly to kill itself.

As much as the doctor is all for saving lives, we see a much darker version of him, literally and figuratively, through the lens of a Dalek.

Throughout the whole episode we see the masterfully put together story of how the Dalek and the doctor are in some extraordinary way, the same. The doctor can deny it all he wants, but it is the truth in this moment. And it crushes him. Because he also must believe he should be dead as well as the Dalek. A soldier with no orders.

Doodles

On paper, an adult cartoon created by a man where many of the female characters are voiced by men would look deeply misogynistic, and in many cases it is, but I feel like YOLO really stands out from that trend. The main characters are women and they can be loud, gross, and flawed, but in the same way that men in adult television have been allowed to be for years. Women can be funny and imperfect without being reduced to one-note sexist stereotypes and I think this show really displays that. Rachel's male VA does not attempt to put on a shrill, fake "woman's" voice but instead just captures her gruff and assertive personality. There's no joke about her or anyone else having a "man's voice," that's just Rachel and we love her the way she is. Similarly, Michael Cusack dressed in full drag in one scene and that wasn't portrayed as a joke either. Although there are still many men in the show, they are all supporting characters to the ladies' adventures, outright flipping the script on the many shows out there where women are relegated to supporting roles to the men's antics. It is honestly really refreshing.

Of course, above anything I advocate for more adult cartoons with women fully at the lead, like Tuca & Bertie. But I think Michael Cusack and YOLO set a good example of how men can create a good comedy without being allergic to showing women as full people. Sarah and Rachel are both funny and go through a lot of character growth, and Michael really seems to understand that women do not have to be written as a different species than men. It also helps that YOLO's production team is full of women, including the art director and almost all of the co-writers who work with Michael. Women are very much a key part of this show's storytelling and it shows.

ok lets move on from having stupid discussions about stupid shit. im going crazy over a thought about jojos bizarre adventure. bear with me here

is kars the difference between the phantom blood and steel ball run timelines?

do you have any pim headcanons 👀

jules i love you so much thank you for sending me this ask 😭

anyways here are some of my pim headcanons!!! (posted below the cut bc it's long lmfao):

⁃ his birthplace is Wollongong, Australia. he and his family moved to america when he was around 3-4 years old with his baby sister amy.

⁃ his accent softened from growing up in the states but it never truly went away; it gets stronger when he's extremely furious or drunk (and he doesn't like to be either).

⁃ his family is lower income/working class, often on the brink of poverty due to his parents' awful money management and the amount of mouths they had to feed. sadly, welfare checks were usually spent on alcohol and lottery tickets instead of healthy food, leaving pim's growth stunted from malnutrition :(

⁃ pim had a HUGE hyperfixation on gwimbly as a little boy, to the point where he would obsessively play the games until he 100%'d all of them and would even pretend to be gwimbly himself at the playground, repeating his famous catchphrase and victory dance ad naseum. imagining himself having the same adventures as his childhood video game hero was his escape from his turbulent home life...

⁃ throughout his childhood, pim was a victim of severe bullying due to his "nerdiness" and undiagnosed autism/ADHD. he was viciously teased for his Goodwill clothes and his accent, as well as excluded from group activities because his excitable personality annoyed his peers. this bullying worsened in high school, to the point where after his glasses were stolen and broken by a bully, he stopped wearing them altogether —both to avoid further harassment, and because his dad accused pim of losing it on purpose and refused to "waste money" buying a replacement for his glasses.

⁃ besides his old penpal oscar, pim had no actual friends until he went to community college, where he would meet his roommate and close friend bill from joining his UFO club, in which fillmore and duncan were the only other members at the time. what they all had in common, besides an apparent interest in aliens, was that none of them were all that popular in school either, and so they were united in being losers :,D

⁃ SPEAKING OF COLLEGE, i think pim was a bit of a party animal in his early 20s. he was more open to trying "new things"; whether it be smoking marijuana or skinny dipping, he was down (as long as it was with the boys). of course, he's mellowed out since then, but that wild side of him can still come out under sufficient peer pressure, as that alien party showed so clearly...

⁃ when pim first met charlie 7 years ago, charlie honestly hated him lmfao. he thought pim's cheerfulness was fake, and on their first day on the job, charlie progressively grew more annoyed at pim's overwhelming optimism, until he blew up at him and the two had their first real argument. however, pim didn't respond back with insults, but rather he pointed out the good qualities that charlie never saw in himself, angry tears welling up as he insisted that charlie was a good person deep down and that he's determined to bring the best out of charlie no matter how hard it may be, because he truly cares about him and sees him as a friend. as you can guess, charlie was moved by this statement, and that was when he realized that pim wasn't just pretending to be nice as part of his job as a smiling friend, he just genuinely enjoyed making people's lives a little brighter. and ever since that fateful day, the two became the best of friends :,)

I have SO many more headcanons to share, but for now i primarily focused on pim's background and upbringing because i'm autistic about giving cartoon characters lore :P

(flashing lights)

IT'S PINK AND YELLOW!!!

The smiling friends intro is just sensor overload cranked up to 90 and it awakens some sleeper agent within me because I just go feral.

Just because something works for you doesn’t mean it works for someone else or vice versa.

Just because it helped you to forgive your abuser doesn’t mean that everyone has to forgive in order to heal.

Just because it helped you and gave you closure to report doesn’t mean everyone has to report to heal.

Just because being angry was bad for you and caused you harm doesn’t mean being angry is bad for someone else.

There is no one way to heal. Everyone is different and heals differently. Assuming that because something worked for you, therefore it must work for everyone else is wrong and ignores the fact that we’re all individuals on our own healing journey. Or assuming that because something didn't work for you means it isn't valid for anyone else is wrong.

Something being right for you doesn’t make it right for everyone. Something being harmful to you doesn’t mean it’s harmful to everyone. We are all unique and this means our healing journeys will also be unique to us. And that's okay.
