I’ve only ever seen Doctor Who on tumblr but my least favorite people are Eleven and Amy. I feel like Rory settled for her and she didn’t appreciate him. That’s how it has come across in all these gif sets. Also, Moffat seems to be a ver lazy writer who cannot write developed women characters or…
You should watch it. It’s amazing. I didn’t liek ten at first but now I really do love him. And so it is the same with eleven and I loved Amy and Rory right away. They are nothing compared to Donna but they are so special. It is worth it. I promise! So go and watch and start with nine.
Thanks for reblogging/adding the commentary!
I’m definitely leaning toward watching it (from the beginning beginning) once my semester is over if I can find it online somewhere. (I think Netflix has lots of the episodes?)
I’ve read lots of criticism about Moffat, most of which are things I’d agree with, and the gif sets seem to reiterate.
But someone was like “what if it gets better?” which I’m really hoping it’s the case. So I may end up watching it and becoming a crazy whovian, because like most people on tumblr, I have no idea how to be a regular fan of things haha

Its actually very wonderful. Amy and Rory love each other very much. I wont give away any spoilers. But i love 11 and Amy and Rory even though i was kinda against them at first.
HI! Thanks for replying to my entry!
I’m definitely leaning toward watching the show. :)
And I’ll try to keep an open mind! Promise!
Even though I’ve already wikipedia’d pretty much everybody’s story lines at length because I’m super impatient when I can’t get emotionally invested in characters. (My own fault though, because I watched the first episode of the first season, then I didn’t watch until season 3, and only because mi namorado likes the show).
But then the Song of Fire and Ice wikia told me that actually a lot of the characters, ESPECIALLY the women, are WAY WAY younger in the books. Like, Sansa is 13 and Arya is 10 and dragon lady is 16 or something crazy. But pretty much all the men are kind of the same age as they’re depicted in the show.
And it fucking creeps me out to read about all these old men creeping on pre-teen and teen girls. I have enough of that on daily life and the news. And I know it’s supposed to be some sort of magical medieval land or whatever, but no.
The show is also pretty racist - but I know some of the blame falls on HBO, of course. Everybody is white, because people of color just didn’t exist until slavery started, you know? So I don’t think I’ll tackle 1000-page books for stuff I can just read in the news or history books. Not even for the dragons. Not even for all the cool, feminist-ish quotes apparently said by the book author.
i have a habit of jotting down in my journal little thoughts that i have when i’m high and i’m reading them all sober for the first time and i’m ugly laughing what in gods name are any of these about:
- the dildo dream
- equate hand soap with aloe vera, girl scout camp
- boswellia,…
What does it say about me that I’ve had some of this thoughts while sober? (Especially the ones about technology/magic haha)

Oh my god. I worry about a good number of these. What does that mean??
This tweet means everything to me.
Lately I’ve been going through a lot and I find no one really caring to talk about it or even listen to me. I’m tired of being upset and being sad and I’m tired of crying every single day because of how alone I feel. I feel like I’m screaming and no one is caring to try to help me. I’m just tired of feeling cornered. No one listens to me. I’m so sad, the thoughts in my head are just so dark and I didn’t think I’d be in this place because everything was getting better and now it’s worse again.
If someone is going through something and they open up to you, listen to them. Because you might be saving their life and you’ll have no idea. Just make a difference, listen to people, help them out because I know how it feels to feel so depressed and no one deserves to feel that way, no one ever. It’s the shittiest feeling and if I could save one person’s life, I’d do it in a heartbeat because no one was there to save me.
Just be better people, make a difference and be kind because one word can trigger a cut or another suicidal thought. Make a difference and be the difference.

People doing that is actually a HUGE reason why I always hesitate and think a million times over before sharing any difficulties or anxieties I might have with anyone.
I don’t want to hear people have it worse out there. Because I already know that. I don’t want to hear that “everything will be okay in the end” as if by magic. Because it doesn’t always end that way.
I want suggestions. I may want advice. But if you don’t have either one to give or if I ask for neither, empathy (even just sympathy) and a hug will be enough.

Sobbing eternally and drowning myself in fanfiction. (Even the worst dair fanfic writer I’ve read did a better job than the actual GG writers with seasons 5/6)

My idea of a cocktail drink is condensed milk, a hint of vodka and fruit of choice (strawberry usually). We drink that type of stuff in brazil all the time.
