im the robot

[titleknown]

Again, this is even funnier if you know what a fucking production nightmare, with a possible curse attached to it no less, this robot prop was for the Doctor Who crew…

[bogleech]

I want to know about the cursed robot

[choppers-pink-hat]

So the robot isn’t a guy in a suit, it’s an animatronic/puppet thing, and it wasn’t built for the show. In fact, no one knows who built it, one of the producers just FOUND IT ONE DAY in a building near the studio. It had apparently been built for another production that was cancelled and then just left to gather dust. So they thought “oh cool, let’s make this dumb robot the Doctor’s new companion, it’ll look neat and weird, everyone will have a gas with it.” NOPE. Kamelion was incredibly complicated to operate, so they assigned a guy named Mike Powers to figure out the best way to go about it. Apparently he did a great job streamlining Kamelion’s operation, and then he promptly died in a boating accident (which is where the “curse” idea comes from.) He didn’t leave any notes or instructions, and the show was already behind schedule, so they had to rush Kamelion’s scenes into production with no idea how it worked. It was a gigantic pain in the ass to use, took forever to set up, and needed constant upkeep and repairs. Everyone hated working with the prop, to the point that before Kamelion’s first episode even aired, they had already decided to kill him off later in the same season. Peter Davison, who played the Fifth Doctor, had the most scenes with Kamelion, and absolutely hated it. When Kamelion dies, the Doctor is really sad, but Davison said later that it was one of the best acting jobs of his career, because in reality, he was absolutely giddy with joy at being rid of the thing.

tl,dr: In the 80′s a Mystery robot prop built by unknown hands caused chaos on the Doctor Who set.

finding an abandoned mystery robot and bringing it home, leading to death, is the most doctor who plot ive ever heard

[seabassapologist]

Also these are quotes aren’t even from Doctor Who, they’re from Futurama. Everything about this post is chaotic

Didn’t anticipate one of the bonuses of going to a drag show in a smaller more conservative town would be getting to see a bro who clearly wandered into the wrong part of the bar by mistake experience what looked to be a transcendent awakening upon seeing his first drag show.

On of the queens halfway through the show, “Honey, are you straight?”

This man, in a strangled voice, “I don’t know”

i hate aspects of this site but i’m also way less insensitive, ignorant, and prejudiced because of the time i’ve spent here. i came here for humor and ended up exposed to minority voices & POVs I wasn’t even looking for. 

which was awesome, bc while most of us know we should be learning these things, most of us don’t associate it with something we’d spend our leisure time pursuing & enjoying. minority representation in media, in fun and popular media that people want to view, is so important for exactly this reason. 

anyway, curate your online experience. make it fun, make it inclusive, fill in your blind spots & unlearn your prejudices while laughing off your ass.  

[zuko-plays-falloutnv]

There it is. You put it into words. This is really it, this is why I’m here. I’ve been thinking this for so long, unable to articulate the exact feeling for me remaining here. Thank you I am at peace now

[potentialroyalty]

This is a really nice message that I also relate to but it’s a little tainted by the fact that the post I saw just before this was the toothbrush and toothpaste having sex

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

ah yes the OTHER reason we’re still on tumblr

[calypsolemon]

"stop post+ from happening fill out this survey sign this petition do a log out protest" listen ive been here since 2011 that's not how anything on this website works. whether or not you do these things post+ will stay, make little to no money for the website bc nobody uses it except self-important funnyman bloggers and instagram influencer wannabees, and slowly degrade as lack of maintinence from an underpaid staff brings it to complete obsolescence. Let nature run her course 😌

Poll: if your mom remarries when you’re 26 years old is that guy still your stepdad or is he just your mom’s husband.

[hazeldomain]

The poll winner seems to be “depends on whether you like him” which is super valid.

Mine watches fox news so “mom’s husband” it is!

[brainsforbabyjesus]

My family has a great way of distinguishing between a new spouse you like and new spouse you disdain!

Your mom/aunt/grandma/etc remarries and they are actually a cool person, you use their first name. So if you were to introduce them they would be: Aunt Jane and Bob.

If your mom/aunt/grandma/etc remarries and they are a fuckwad you introduce them as: this is Aunt Jane and her second husband. The implication being that they are very replaceable and that we’re all just waiting for her to wise up to the situation and serve you divorce papers, she did it once, she can do it again.

MAGNIFICENT

It's been a year and I've forgotten the sun.

[all-pacas]

so, i live on  the fourth floor of an apartment building that faces a fairly busy street; it’s on a hill so car noises are pretty regular over the course of the day. because i’m high above the street, you obviously can’t see the cars unless you look out the window, right? but sometimes the sun reflects off the car roofs or whatever, and so there’ll be a light on my ceiling as a car passes by.

so my cat? whenever he hears a loud engine, day or night, he looks at my ceiling. even if there is no refraction going on. to him, those are the sounds of light on the ceiling. sometimes the light appears and there is a loud noise. it’s 8pm and a truck just passed and he watched the ceiling as the car moved past my windows – no reflection this time of night, but trucks are ceiling creatures and i just think that’s such a like – it’s a good correlation, buddy!! you figured it out!! you’re wrong but you’re so smart!!

[all-pacas]

this is NOT WHAT I WAS EXPECTING FROM THIS POST but anyway here’s my cat stalking trucks (on the ceiling)

[evilkitten3]

actually i think your cat is onto something. maybe everyone else is wrong. i’d like to meet him and discuss this.

[cantabilechaos]

Being a kid was so fucking funny we’d just go around lying to each other’s faces constantly to impress each other one of my classmates told me he was the first person to visit the sun and when I asked him what it was like to prove he was lying he said he didn’t remember because they sent him there when he was just a baby and to this day the mental image of NASA launching an unsupervised baby into the sun still makes me crack up

[corporationkills]

“you have mental illness” actually i don’t, those are just unfortunate side effects from using the powers from my amulet to often. such power deranges a man.
