S1E2 The End Of The World: The Lonely

S1E2 The End of the World: The Lonely

You’d think an episode with that name would be the End or the Extinction, but it reeks of the Lonely. Rose is surrounded by aliens. The only other human around is Cassandra, and she’s no prize. Rose realizes everyone she loves is dead. The Doctor talks about Gallifrey for the first time (not counting Doctors 1-8, this is all going to be 9 onward). The extremely Lonely scene at the end where Rose is standing still while a crowd of people walk around her. It’s got elements of End, Corruption, Vast, and Desolation, but the Lonely truly rules this episode.

Starting my first “long thread of me watching a thing”

The thread?

Assigning tma fears to every doctor who episode (starting with the 9th doctor and going onward)! I plan to watch every episode basically chronologically but we’ll see how it plays out.

Frank, can you please give me a tarot card reading?

Sure

Ive noticed something through the process of reporting the endless barrage of spambots.

Either the bio does not have an age, or the age is 23.

Is 23 a sexy age? Do you automatically gain +10 sex appeal points for the year that you’re 23 and lose them on your 24th birthday? Is 23 a common “random” number? Am I actually just being influenced by recency bias and subconsciously ignoring any other ages?

Am I overanalyzing the age stated in the bio of a spambot? Yes, yes I believe I am.

I realized something about michael last night that i haven’t converted from “rant in friend’s dms” so I’ll just put the conclusion here and elaborate later: michael distortion’s horror is mostly Hunt-oriented actually (fair bit of Eye too), not Spiral
