NEW POSTER! Here's my artwork for THE KING'S DEMONS, the final story of Season 20! ⚔️🤖 The Doctor lands in the court of King John and quickly earn favor, although evidence mounts that the king may be an impostor... #DoctorWho #FifthDoctor #PeterDavison #posterdesign @bigfinish.bsky.social

remembered why i don't cosplay male characters: i look like a 14 year old boy. 🥲

this is a great article about the draw of tragic tales and their history!

can we also manifest that it fits LOL

nah i'd watch a dr who episode on why our water bills are increasing tbh

and they were lab mates

can we all please manifest that my impulse cosplay gets here before the con 🕯️

devastated that i didn't come across this in my research so i could include it as a footnote in my thesis!!!!

starting to become convinced that the classic story edits are both trying to gain new fans AND strategically rage-baiting old fans for publicity. marketing genius, tbh.

we may not have new doctor who to complain about, but we have an old episode updated for us to complain about now. huzzah!

if you are a fandom moot interested in my non-dw posts, fic/memes/meta, and general flailing, please follow my alt! as my dms are locked, i can only share it via this riddle: same as tumblr name when days were better, or ao3 pseudonym with doubled third letter. (or you can dm me on insta ig.)

my CT con woes, a story: 2022: grad school apps due week after con, no one turned in my letters of rec. 2023: 3 final papers due week after con; had to grade 23 papers before leaving. 2024: thesis chapter due week after con. 2025: moving house week after con.

disney after giving us a giant TARDIS set, two series, and then cancelling their end of the deal.

realizing it is november 9th and i have done zero con prep

If anyone is bored this Saturday, here's the colours of the next Doctor Who Collection set! Start your theories now!

seeing someone read "the master and margarita" (dw) for the first time like. yeah......yeah. 🍄

saw someone on instagram talking about "traumantasy" and i don't know how to explain that that's just gothic romance.

remind me to tell a good shipping joke when the war between the land and the sea finally airs.

experiencing nostalgia for thirteen's era is really confusing, because it was a terse time in fandom, i spent the entire time being shamed for liking it, there was the height of the pandemic, and politics were chaos. but.... yaz was great?

If you want to be a panelist at our 2025 con, don't forget to sign up before tomorrow, November 4th, by end of day: chicagotardis.com/call-for-panelists We have so many great programming pieces this year. You won't want to miss it!

i have a few ideas for things i want to pitch/projects i want to begin immediately, but i am waiting until we have the keys to the house, have moved in, and unpacked. i'm not overcommitting! look at me!

any audiobook recs?? i've been on a scifi/fantasy kick lately and reading either romance or classic sff, so open to whatever.

INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE SECOND INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE OVER ZOOM TO MEET MORE OF THE TEAM UNFORTUNATELY, YOU HAVE NOT BEEN SUCCESSFUL ON THIS OCCASION, BUT WE HOPE YOU'LL APPLY FOR FUTURE POSITIONS WITH THE VAMPIRE

hate that i can remember so many things about books and shows but i cannot recall or comprehend the rules of baseball

help, i keep opening the big finish app to restart my audiobook instead of libby. 😭

The 2025 Call for Panelists is now open: www.chicagotardis.com/call-for-pan... We had a record number of panels suggested to us this year, and we tried to fit in as many as we could on this list.

Seeing "Doctor Who is BACK" when the last new episode I watched was THIS YEAR is very funny

one dr who episode can buy about 15 minutes of the rings of power

everyone is pitching their dr whos today so i would like everyone to consider: bring back derek jacobi as the master. except, get this: he died and his consciousness was uploaded into a robot. richard e grant is the doctor. sophie okonedo plays the compa --

call for panelists opening this week? LETS GOOOOOO!!!

I'm glad Doctor Who will have a dramatically reduced budget, as is the natural order of things. If it doesn't look a little bit jank, it's not actually Doctor Who.

every time there's a good dr who announcement, at least one of my irls will message me "i'm so happy for you!"

open the app to see everyone celebrating the doctor who news life is good

we survived lol

Haha, I was literally just thinking of this exact joke.

this is like the opposite the wilderness years announcements of rumors that disney was bringing the show back 😅

good news..... he's DEAAAAD

absolutely love this, excited to see how it turns out!

expectation vs reality

will you guys still love me if i tell the same joke twice?

i would really not advise trying to present at a conference the same week you close on a house. just as i would not advise chairing a conference three days before your thesis defense, or attending a convention the weekend before finals. actually, maybe i'm the problem.

⏰ Our final Saturday #FSNNA2025 roundtable sessions will be starting in 10 minutes at 3:15pm ET!  There are 2 concurrent sessions: 🔸J1: Gender & Power in Doctor Who 🔸J2: Re(Defining) Fandom: Histories, Boundaries, & Expectations

ngl lately i have been thinking about what fanfic is - is it genre? adaption?- is it a theoretical method? because how do you understand something that adapts an existing story, but that aligns with genre conventions, and bases itself on readings and interpretations of a text??

had a nightmare they made me take english comp again
