I haven’t properly written anything in what - two years? maybe three? and it’s so depressing to think about
here I am, correcting other people’s texts, bored out of my mind because shit, can’t even blame my students for not wanting to write, having to put this much thought into your writing just sucks ass
okay i don’t get a shit about the B-plots of this season except for the convoluted lesbian jealousy arc i’ve made up in my head for eloise, cressida, and penelope out of sheer boredom. and even that isn’t particularly interesting in all honesty
pendant ce temps les faque-checkeurs de radiocanne / cirque du sommeil nous expliquent la "désinformation".
Le blanchiment d'informations, c'est radio kick la canne qui le fait, genre :
the magician’s apprentice/the witch’s familiar
i feel like moffat is just SO obsessed with prophesying the Doctor’s death that it loses all meaning! because he never actually dies! ugh
why this snake dude
i just don’t get how Davros can be dying ‘now’? there is no now? how can he be dying ‘now’? he’s been dying for all of the Doctor’s lives? how does Davros’ timeline, line up with the Doctor’s. it still makes sense when you think about it - but comments like ‘so i’ve heard’ seem to imply there is some greater timeline along which greater things occur.
despite being a horrid murderer (and her TERRIBLE name change), Missy is a very fun character, very charming
destroying the timeline!!!
what i liked: clara going from schoolteacher to mysterious badass in that very school. Missy being a terrible but charming person. Her dramatics making sense. Missy and Clara’s interactions.
The story about the Doctor great stuff. The cheap and nasty timetravel (previously having established theirs are linked) saving em. Great stuff!
really loving Davros out of his chair makes him look real fucked up. The power struggle between Clara and Missy i mean damn. (but honestly didn’t Missy still have her vaporiser and also a knife?)
and ok like, the sewer being a Dalek graveyard is genuinely disturbing
‘when my daughter’ WHAT TELL ME MORE WHAT
the doctor’s got a screwdriver, the mistress a vaporiser. the doctor psychic paper, the master a knife-brooch
Missy plays around with Clara and uses her as stone and bait. but then she does take the handcuffs off her (where did that come from) and protect her with her body (i mean, squelch clara into ancient dalek corpses). i guess bc she needed somebody in the Dalek
‘i came because you are sick and you asked’ LOVE THAT (after saying: im just a man in a box telling stories - heh)
really cool to put clara in a Dalek and do the translation bit. not sure where the tech comes from to do that or why gets translated like that when i thought Daleks got so murdery at least mostly because of genetic editing but ill accept it
‘am i a good man because i turned my whole people into killing machines that aim to burn the universe to a crisp to protect them?’ uh NO
but they chuckle at a nice joke.
and he doesn’t get an answer! lol. but he certainly knows how manipulate the Doctor. i was getting sick of the sappy bullshit but the Doctor was falling for every emotional little sad admission
SINCE WHEN CAN THE DOCTOR SUMMON REGENERATION ENERGY ON COMMAND?
anyway hello those cables are CLEARLY snake patterned
missy dancing to ‘you will tell us’ lol
love how Missy storms in and saves the Doctor
GREAT USE OF THE SEWERS. !!!!!!!!!!!
love how Moffat lets the Doctor WIN! have the last WORD! (he gets a little too explicit about it - ‘the doctor always assumes he’ll win’ to my taste but)
Chibnall should really really really please take notes
Did Davros really not foresee this lol. that’s a major flaw in the PLANNING stages of the deception. there’s not implication that the Doctor change anything so it really was just Davros stupidity
MISSY POKING DAVROS’ EYE JFLDJLKDFKLDJSF
implication that the Doctor could have left ages ago with his sonic (but what does taht say about him not leaving the infirmary and going to save Clara?)
that was a nice twist!!!! (and i guess missy needed her in there mostly to manipulate the Doctor into killing her)

Est-ce que c'est pertinent de parler de l'origine de l'écriture dans un cours de culture numérique?
Réponse: non.
I've sat in on no less than 3 meetings today..
It's days like this that make me realize how professional and adult I'm supposed to be, and yet..am not.
