Why should a dog, a horse, a rat, have life, And thou no breath at all? Thou'lt come no more, Never, never, never, never, never!

rtd's ai love gives a lot of context to why he set up a story about tech company but then derailed it into yet another generic RTD apocalypse finale with Sutekh right before the episode got the point he might be expected to say something about tech companies

"Everyone is the hero of their own story" is one of the dumbest sociological cliches. No, when the Coca Cola company used right-wing death squads against union leaders in the 90s, they didn't think they were heroes serving a greater good. They did it because it benefited them, and they knew that.

this version of Dr Who (this line is from the annual short story The Lair of Zarbi Supremo) will always beat RTD's super angsty Doctor in my mind. I like that Moffat returned the Doctor to this version. The "I am an idiot" speech from Death in Heaven is lovely.

When tech guys post shit like "you use VLC? You should use Twinkle, which you can get by reading this 500 page page PDF on how to depack the qwertybash command prompt from github, IDIOT!" do they really expect anyone to go "wow, I see the error of my ways now!" and switch over?

I'm remembering an episode of MASH where Radar wants to impress a smart nurse so one of the doctors gives him the advice to say 'ah, Bach!' whenever music comes up.

If these frat boys were holding up "Stop The Genocide" signs on campus instead of raping women, universities would have expelled them and banned the frats already

Once a lift randomly took me to a strange closed off dimly lit floor mostly full of locked storage doors, that wasn't listed on the "you are here" floor map. Exploring that floor is still one of most treasured moments of my life. I felt like a character from a Doctor Who cold open.

philosophers say shit like "what if elephants aren't real and every time you've seen an elephant or heard of elephants you were briefly hallucinating including this sentence you think you're reading right now" and we have to pretend that's smart cause we can't just make them drink poison anymore

the meme doomer trannies post on here that's like "the only reason lesbians poll as highly accepting of trans people is they think we're just weird genderfucky and don't actually see us as our genders they just SAY they accept us" is such stupid unfalsifiable crap. on par with proposing p-zombies.

Transphobes saying "you will never be a woman" is so funny because specifying "never" is so unnecessary. Like there's some hypothetical person who believes "you're not a woman yet, but you will be one day, with a lot of gumption, I believe in ya, kid!"
