I get why they're doing it but I hate that dnp are posting even the free videos on patreon instead of youtube cause I like to watch their videos on the tv with my mom 😭 I have to cast it from her phone when it's on patreon cause there's no TV app and my phone wont cast

simultaneously very glad dan and phil decided to hard launch when im an adult but also very aware the content right now would be so much easier to keep up with if i was still an unemployed 15 year old

It’s not even just Belinda. This entire era has been weirdly pushy on enforcing motherhood as the purpose of women

Donna is confirmed to have settled down and had a child as soon as she left the doctor

Ruby is only 19 and from the very beginning she’s in a maternal role. She looks after the children Carla fosters. In space babies she immediately assumes a maternal role to look after the children.

Anita was sad and lonely and now she’s happy and pregnant (from an accidental pregnancy, isn’t she so glad that happened without her deciding to do it!)

The ranis motivation is grief about her infertility, and her plan is to create loads of new time lord children. One of her incarnations describes herself as the mother of the other.

This entire two series arc has been building up to the statement that women should be mothers, and would be so much happier if they were mothers. Whether they want it or not. When it happens they’ll realise it’s what they wanted the whole time. It’s gross and I think one of the most misogynistic plots from a modern show I’ve seen.

you know what's bizarre? poppy was a real person. i feel like i'm going insane here. like in-universe poppy was a real child with her own life before she was retconned into being belinda's daughter. what the hell

i love it when a fandom agrees on one particular portmanteau ship name and you can tell it’s because the alternatives are all atrocious. like i don’t know anything about glee but even i know that they only call it “klaine” because no one would be able to take it seriously if it was “blurt”

“i love the hunger games. everlark is my OTP” oh i see someone’s too good for “peeniss” huh

“Well, there’s no proof that will happen. You can’t count on things happening tomorrow just because they happened in the past. It’s faulty logic.”

How are we holding up? I’m still crying about Lenore Dove and the gumdrops

I did like the doctor who episode lucky day but nearly every response I've seen to it so far makes me feel like I've grievously misunderstood it...

[sparrowlucero]

like thus far, all comments I've seen have either taken the perspective that the main character of this episode is a total grifter/100% knows the conspiracy theory that aliens aren't real (the equivalent in this world to something like covid denialism) is bullshit and it's just a plot hole that he doesn't take the medicine that keeps the alien from killing him, OR that he genuinely thinks that aliens are a government psyop and it's just a plot hole that he's seen hard evidence to the contrary. but, from my perspective, lucky day is trying to portray a sort of dave rubin/jp sears-esque leftist personality who became genuinely radicalized in private and kept up his leftist veneer for years until going publicly mask off (in this case in a very extreme way), and so still has a lot of weird hang ups because of it. He has a podcast about alien encounters where he takes a negative stance towards the conspiracy theorist group he's already in, interviewed for a job at unit (government agency that deals with aliens), he still wears the coin the doctor gave him around his neck as a good luck charm; it's very obvious this used to be a real and important perspective to him at one point, but after a while he felt pushed out of that space (explicitly from being rejected by unit multiple times and implicitly because he's also just a normal asshole conservative in ways that he would have had to play down as a leftist podcaster; he's clearly uncomfortable when ruby alludes to the doctor being gay, describes shirley as being a benefits scrounger because she's in a wheelchair, etc.) But he still falls into little crises of faith because, on a gut level, he understands that the right wing conspiracies he's pushing don't logically make sense with his experiences. Like, for instance, ruby's description of an alien animal that's hunting him clearly disturbs him, but after a moment he pushes it out of his head and states that she "tells a good story" and ultimately doesn't take the vaccine she hands him that would prevent this. This doesn't benefit his goals, he just logically understood she was telling the truth in the moment and then shook himself out of it because that truth doesn't cohere with the narrative he's committed himself to

you know, like, he's a covid denier or transvestigator or flat earther who's for real convinced himself of this stuff, rejects any evidence given to him even when it makes more sense, believes this narrative genuinely even though he pushes "proof" he knows to be fake, but in the back of his mind he realizes aspects of what hes railing against are more true and logical and that his conspiracy theories are ultimately harmful to him (very pointedly he gets got at the end because he refused a vaccine). He used to be a (likely fakey) leftist figure who believed in certain specific things, he's now a conspiracy theorist who aligns himself with insane bullshit that rejects all aspects of those things, so he internally struggles with trying to reconcile these two totally mutually exclusive perspectives whenever they butt heads and often comes to a quite flimsy and illogical middle ground where he still thinks dr who is real but believes ruby is lying. it's a depiction of a very specific type of guy who's liable to get radicalized; note how all of this maps onto, like, jk rowling, or your since-radicalized freak of choice.

Imagine you are a LESBIAN and you only just came to terms with that and your SPACE GIRLFRIEND is killed by her freaky EX who also has a CRUSH on you and then your SPACE GIRLFRIEND turns into a GAY MAN

[sisterdaniela]

omg i just randomly remembered from the copenhagen show,,, ,, a confession was like "i've been in love with my bestfriend for so many years and she has no idea" or something like that, and dnp were literally like "pffft couldn't be us amiright" THAT WAS SO FOUL OF THEM?????

(edit: here is the audio guys (and another higher quality audio here), my memory may have worded it differently but still... dan says "here we are two bros sitting five feet apart in a confession box because that's not ussss")

[shedanonmyphil]

[reunitedinterlude]

do you think you and phil will be best friends forever? that's the plan
