Doctor Who stays relevant

[the-evil-skull]

I guess the reason I love the name of the doctor so much is kind of the bait and switch of it, where Moffat teases that the Doctor's real name is some secret mysterious birth name that's a surprise tool to save the day, but then the Doctor drops the title in the final line "but not in the name of the Doctor" and it just clicks that it's never been about the power of the name youre given at birth. The Name of the Doctor isn't alluding to the Doctor's "real name" but the promise inherent in the title "The Doctor", which is only powerful because the Doctor chose it for himself. Idk. Do you get it. This is because Dr Who is transgender.

"Cats were invented on gallifrey and also predate the time lords themselves" is another of my favorite bits of DW lore

This is our brand new science fiction adventure character, he's a scientist and an old man. He's in a TV show called Doctor Who. He's credited as Dr Who. All production documents call him Dr Who. All promotional material calls him Dr Who. The novel adaptations call him Dr Who. The movie adaptations call him Dr Who. The original tie-in fiction calls him Dr Who. And week one of his TV show he's going to meet a guy who's like "What's your name? What do we call you?" and our hero is going to be like "hohoho hehehe you dumb motherfucker. Never talk to me again." And then he's never ever going to give anyone his goddamn name.

[ylfa-snorgelssons]

do you guys think amy and rory held out hope that the doctor might find them again. that's what he does, he finds some stupid loophole and does the impossible. so they waited, and waited, and slowly realized he really wasn't coming.

Younger folk are getting really good at spotting AI slop, to the consternation of marketing execs.

Found on Mastodon.

[sunderwight]

From what I remember of back when Millennials were outpacing Boomers at internet and tech stuff in general, this is going to cause a lot of issues for companies angling to use slop in marketing because the younger set are always going to be better at spotting it than the older, but the older are going to be the ones approving marketing campaigns and ads and etc. Meaning, the older people will not ever be able to tell what might actually convince the younger.

The good news is that if it persists and Gen Z and Gen Alpha continue to scoff at the generated stuff, then marketing departments aiming at them will just have to give up on using it because they won't be able to figure out how to fool their targets with it.

The bad news is that this won't apply to scams and campaigns aimed at older people, so once again we're going to have a situation where the kids will be the ones lunging across the coffee table to stop Mom from giving her financial info to that really obvious fake scam mom oh my god do NOT buy that it isn't even a real thing.

Anyway godspeed to the younger generations.

the doctor takes a hit and pulls a little damaged gizmo out of their pocket like nooo my perception filter!! D: and after a moment it craps out altogether but nothing changes about their appearance so their companions are like wait. what was the perception filter doing? and the Doctor is like. giving me a belly button :(

[mndvx]

we had Ncuti Gatwa as Dr Who and the show fumbled him harder than anyone has ever fumbled anything in the history of the world never forget that and never ever forgive russell t davies for that

[awesomebrowniegirl]

he is Kind Of me

[fantasticbluebox]

Am I wrong to love this character so much? I dare say not.

“average Doctor is really really cool” factoid actually just statistical error. average Doctor is very uncool. The ninth doctor who wore a leather jacket 24/7 and told a dalek to kill himself is an outlier and should not have been counted

[earhartsease]

of course in reality it was the War Doctor who didn't get counted
