love island should introduce a "scheming eunuch" islander who is like a smart and completely asexual islander exempt from being kicked off or being made to participate in any challenges and they're just there to provide advice and be a sort of sounding board for the other islanders when they need a disinterested party to talk things through with. but the scheming eunuch has secret goals unbeknownst to anyone e.g. a cash prize for talking a certain couple into breaking up etc.

Fascinating parallel here. This incapacity of the legal framework to protect groups who are at the intersection of two protected groups (trans women in this case, black women in the original) even while protecting both groups individually is Crenshaw's original reason for coining the word "intersectionality", which has since gone through the wringer.

I know this is an ice cold take but watching TOS was shocking because I thought Kirk was a womanizer before going in and no it turns out he just loves falling in love.

Yes, he's a slut, but he's an emotional slut and he deserves credit for that

My friend really changed once she became a vegetarian

Doctor who showrunners be like “writing a good story to secure the show’s continued existence? That pales in comparison to my strategy. Stuntcasting Billie piper” and then not even secure the show’s continued existence.

Starting a gofundme for my friend Bunbury who's a terrible invalid,

Well, I'm starting a gofundme for the funeral of my brother Ernest, who died in Paris of a severe chill,

thing thats pissing me off the most is that in rtd’s post, he’s acting like the christmas special being written and the casting of the next doctor are some crazy fandom conspiracies and not. things that we were fucking told were happening. the fuck do you mean, “sit in that chair and wait to be proved right?” YOU WERE THE ONE WHO SAID THOSE THINGS WERE COMING.

this is not a secret fourth sherlock episode situation, sir, you said multiple fucking times that things were in the works for a christmas special. you commented on the doctor’s casting and whether piper was the next doctor or not. no one made this up. you did that. what the hell are we being mocked for, believing what we were told by the guy who was supposed to be in charge of making it happen???

Cosplaying as Russel t Davies where I just leave shit on a cliffhanger then quit my job

my feeling with regards to the billie piper cliffhanger was like 'well it's stupid but i suppose if this is what it takes to secure the show's ongoing existence it will be worth it'. consequently i now feel comfortable saying: that was simply fucking stupid wasn't it
