This Is Actually Really Cool! I Have An Ace/Aro (Maybe?) Person To Look Up To!

Doctor Who text posts Part 2

He is risen

Watching Boom and then immediately watching the final episode of Fallout feels so right? Like, both have such strong anti-capitalism messages about war and warfare in the future.

Spoilers below cut for Fallout 1x08 and Doctor Who 1x03

"Flashy lights play well in a show room. Modern warfare. Death by salesman." - The Doctor to Ruby.

And then hearing...

"Because, in our current societal configuration, which took shape without intentional guidance, we have friction [...] we have conflict, and we have war. And war? Well, war never changes."

While businessmen and women discuss experiments on people, all in the name of "creating a good society"? Making 122 vaults, many of which actively existed to see how fucked up they could make people behave.

And throughout Boom, there is constantly a "Thoughts and prayers" quote being said (which is the go to response for people in need, in wars, or in active hostile environments), a company literally making soldiers kill each other? (Which happened in vault 11)

Both of these shows are being streamed on massive corporations, DW on Disney+, which generated 8.4 BILLION last year (only increasing since it's initial launch, as it has removed many shows and movies from other sites). And Fallout on Amazon Prime, which had gotten 35.22 BILLION in revenue last year, as well has being known (practically globally) as a company that uses and abuses it's workers, but has made itself such a staple in so many places, that it is physically impossible to not support them in some way, and some can only use them.

But Doctor Who has always been a show about anti-war and anti-capitalism. To have such a show go to the hand of one of the biggest mega corporations is such a shame, it is incredible that they can have Moffat come back and basically flip the house of mouse off and shit in their toilet all while getting paid, and have that approved? awesome.

Fallout has always been about how war is horrible, and how fucked up humans are, giving a rare glimmer of hope towards something attainable, and Amazon Prime taking this media and making it a show? All while ignoring what the message is? Incredible. Perfect.

WAIT IT WAS 2017!??! HOW THE FUCK DID I NOT KNOW????? I WATCH SO MUCH AMERISCAM TV!!!

I’m gonna be honest for a minute here guys, I didn’t know that the dorito cheeto was President until like, 2019. I shit you not, I thought he was running in 2018, no, I’m not joking! I told my mum one night “Trump shouldn’t be presodent, he’s too dumb.” and my mum just kept knitting and said; “OK sweetie.” LIKE I KNEW HE WAS ALREADY PRESIDENT.

I wish i was joking when i said that everytime an ash wednesday mass happened at my all girls catholic school, when the sign of the cross was drawn with ash on our foreheads, they fucking played Ashes by Celine Dion from Deadpool.

Does anyone else think of a specific friend after consuming a piece of media? Or vice versa? Like, that friend has talked about a show so much that even though you haven't spoken to them for months or even years, when you watch, you think about them. Never able being to seperate them from the media, if someone even says the name of it, they flash through your mind and you get happy when you think about them?

this started as a joke but then i started actually thinking about it and now im really annoyed that IDs have this one letter that doesnt mean anything for cis people and is a huge pain in the ass for trans people when we could instead have literally lifesaving information so emergency medical services could just check ur wallet to see which blood to give you so you dont die or whatever But No

Day 2: Spideypool ❤️❤️

so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god

Sonic fandom with shadow backstory is like that one comic about the geologists talking about how everyone knows the something sequence for quartz. Does this make sense. I dunno.

HOLY SHIT YOU'RE RIGHT
