just swinging by to say. . .
. . . i was wrong. specifically, in this entry: tlr3.livejournal.com/4908.html in which i propose that donna's not in love with the doctor deal was a planned progression.
anyone who read the writer's tale knows that's nonsense. my opinion of RTD went both up and down as a result of that book. this is one of the down bits.
i'm never on here recently; ( Read more... ) -
partners in crime is yay!

probably there is something wrong with me. . .
i'm too stuck in rl to join the various discussions about the dw spoiler. *that* spoiler. you know. so i will just say that perhaps there's something wrong with me because i still believe RTD could turn it into something reasonable. and i say that as someone who just didn't buy the whole "unrequited love" thing and found the end of s3. . .

fan video waiting to happen
someone should make a fan video of "the cap'm" by TMBG themed around captain jack. it won't be me because i have no skills.

darker readings of the doctor (courtesty RTD)
probably others have noticed this, but in case not. . .
1. the surface reading: as martha tells folks in her story, the doctor helps everyone and leaves, never asking to be thanked. heroic, right?
2. the darker reading:
