First off, I would like to take a moment to pimp the Narnia Fic Exchange. (OMG YAY.)
Go! Sign up! Enjoy! Sign-ups are open until June 19th. *claps hands excitedly* I am looking forward to this SO MUCH, you have no idea.
Doctor Who last Saturday! Guys, SO GOOD.
- no magical mental diseases that get cured with one thing! delicate, sensitive, thoughtful treatment of mental diseases! Doctor Who, how do you get awesomer every. single. week this season?
- RORY COME BACK. WE MISS YOUUUUUU. Eleven misses you! Amy misses you even though she doesn't remember you! We all want you back. D:
- AMY. AMY AND VINCENT. AMY AND ELEVEN AND VINCENT. WATCHING THE STARS. I cannot eveeeeen, capslock is not sufficient! So adorable!
- how gorgeous is Karen Gillian? so gorgeous. her in the sunflowers was such gorgeous photography.
- "Is this how time normally passes? Reaaaaallly slowly, and in the right order?" ILU, ELEVEN.
- How awesome is Amy the Van Gogh and art fangirl? I love that about her, that she loves art, and painting, and that she stands there entranced as it gets dark, watching Van Gogh paint. That she pushes the Doctor away when he bothers Van Gogh. that she tries so hard to help him. OH AMY.
- Vincent in the gallery! You know what I mean.
- Amy, so hopeful that they'd changed things! oh, man.
- the Doctor's speech. best. thing. ever. I needed that speech this week, too. I've got this episode tucked away in my heart, and am keeping it there for times that get bad. HEY ELEVEN YOU'RE AWESOME.
- SUNFLOWERS FOR AMY. (She's not the marrying type. D: Do you know how much she must have loved Rory to even consider marrying him? SO MUCH.)
- RORY COME BAACK.
It looks like next week might be the Doctor-companion-lite episode of the season? :( I am, however, greatly looking forward to the antics of the Doctor attempting to pass himself off as a normal human. (AHAHAHAHAHA, brb dead of laughing.)
HEY DW FANDOM, while I'm on Doctor Who. Stop it with the slut-shaming and other absurdity! Feminism: you're getting it wrong. If you dislike Amy, try to dislike her in a rational manner. I know it can be done! I know people who are doing it in a rational manner! You can do it too. (Well, I'd prefer you just convert to thinking she is the awesomest, but I'll settle for disliking her for rational reasons that don't involve saying she dresses like a slut, which is especially insulting to me because - well, does that mean you think I'm a slut for having legs like hers and wanting to wear her clothes?) I encourage you to engage in reasonable discussions, thoughtfulness, and a deep deep look at internalized misogyny. Thanks!
no love until you stop the hypocrisy and vileness,
Betsy.
