Putting on eyeliner this morning for the My Chemical Romance concert and thinking about how many other fans might also be doing this at the same time; thinking about how many fans have done their eyeliner for a show over the years in the past. Thinking about Gerard doing his own eyeliner. Achieving spiritual union with the MCR fandom through slightly messy eyeliner.
I just love all the art of these three as a family so much <3 They have their flaws, but they take care of each other. After all, even slightly murderous children get scared of monsters sometimes :)
Martin making Oswald check under the bed for monsters and Oswald checking even though it hurts his knee?
Ed’s joining in to give his opinion on the matter as a man of science!
Aaaw <3 I’m sure Opportunity and K-9 will be great friends!
(There has to be at least one K-9 still in storage in there somewhere, right?)
But actually though, could you imagine if they made Opportunity a companion? The Doctor could give it a few upgrades; I bet it’d be a great adventuring buddy!
Oppy deserves a happy ending, okay
As much as I love the Doctor’s pacifism (which he sort of sticks to at least most of the time except when he later shoves cyanide in a dude’s face but ya know... he has bad days I guess), I also love how Jamie straight up stabs a Sontaran in the leg. Like yeah, you’re one of the most fearsome warrior species in the universe? Well I’m Scottish and Imma stab you.
But yeah, I went back on another of my erratic sprees of Classic Who-watching tonight and I happened upon the Two Doctors. I’m starting to quite like Jamie as a companion. (Even though this is his last appearance as a companion in terms of episode order, it’s only the second full serial I’ve watched with him in it because my approach to watching Classic Who can be summed up as wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey.)
This serial also very much made me think of that 12th Doctor quote, “hardly anything is evil, but most things are hungry”. Obviously the Sontarans are more about battle-glory than hunger, but that Androgen chef, on the other hand...
“Sontaran might is invincible!”
The Two Doctors - season 22 - 1985
Happy March 22 all!
so do we get sad on the 22nd this year or..?
So WTNV succeeded in getting me into Alice Isn’t Dead. It’s already made me gasp out loud so many times; Night Vale is cute and quirky and funny and loveable, but Alice isn’t Dead is just so much more genuinely eerie and spooky. This episode was more on the poignant and pensive end of the spectrum, and this comic really captures it expertly. I also like that the artist didn’t skip over the bit with the pizza-making, too. It was just such a warm and lovely flashback, but also part of an important meditation on what makes life meaningful which really throws into relief the tragedy of Jackie.
Parts: 1 / 2 Factory by the Sea, episode 4 season 1 Alice isn’t Dead by Nightvale Presents!
I really REALLY love this podcast and I want everyone to check it out HERE. DO NOT DELETE THESE COMMENTS PLEASE!

Well, I just reblogged Christmas antlers Wilf, so I suppose I must also reblog Christmas antlers 12.
Hey, wait a second, are those the same antlers? Okay they aren’t, but I can’t help but wonder if the Tardis wasn’t at least inspired by Wilf...

I kind of love the idea of travelling with my cats, but at the same time it makes me afraid that they might get away and get lost in a strange, faraway place. Like, I remember once when we were bringing two kittens home from my cousin’s in Iowa back home to Virginia, there was this moment when we stopped at a rest stop to refresh their food and water bowls, and I just had this overwhelming realization that, with their carrier door open, if they were to get out of the car, they would probably get spooked by the commotion of the rest stop and run, and I would in all likelihood never see them again. This pretty kitty seems to be quite calm outdoors, and the woods are not the same as a rest stop, but still. I would worry.
Plus I have three cats and I think it would be harder to travel with them all than with just one kitty like this, and I would feel bad picking one cat over the others to take somewhere--although I suppose one could cycle through.
It’s certainly a tempting notion, travelling the world with cats in tow, and I love photo sets like this (or adventurecats.org is a fun site, too). Maybe some day, when I’m confident in their leash training and I have money to travel and such. It’s a lovely thought. And these are very pretty cat-and-nature pics.
Anyways, here’s a rather more heartwarming Mother’s Day fanart piece of young Loki learning magic from his mom :)
“You [Thor] and your father cast large shadows. I had hoped by sharing my gifts with Loki that he could find some sun for himself.”
OMG MOM UR SO COOL HOW DO YOU DO THAT WOWOWWOW
I watched 2x14 of the Originals tonight and when Klaus told all the assembled werewolves at Hayley's wedding that Hope was still alive after killing his own father just for finding out the very same thing a mere handful of episodes ago, it made me think of this moment in this Studio C sketch -- "she knew, so naturally, she had to be taken care of! Of course, I didn't realize I'd be revealing that secret myself just a few hours later, but at the time it seemed very important to keep her quiet." Like. I guess I get his reasoning and can sort of see why it changed. But for a guy who killed the biological father he'd been so curious about just a few days ago to keep his secret, he sure did just announce that same dang secret to a roomful of strangers. If I was his biodad hanging out on the Other Side (or wait I think maybe that's gone by now? But if it was still there) I'd be trying my darndest to slap that idiot upside the head for that.
Welcome, dear traveller, to our fantastical lande shrouded in swirling violet mists. Here we study how stories shape our lives, how words weave wonders before our eyes. Here we are enamoured of love and the connections betwixt people. Here we seek daring adventures in our wild lande, delving into the unknown at every turn. But mostly, here you'll find my obsession with any number of things, like Doctor Who, the Vampire Diaries, or any number of others from the ever-shifting tide of obsessions through which I cycle. My more-used sideblog is blagueofchaos if you ever wish I posted more :) She/her, 28
