I like Gilmore GIrls, Whedonverse, Roswell, Scott Pilgrim, Princess Bride, Harry Potter, Star Wars, Star Trek, StarKid, Indiana Jones, Disney, and more recently Doctor Who!
AND LOTS OF OTHER STUFF. enjoy?
none of the photos/gifs/graphics I post on my blog are made by me unless I specifically say so. I just post other stuff that people make/post that I think is cool, interesting, goofy, cute, or something that I find to be socially aware and important to society (that's only when it's something that speaks to me).

Just out of curiosity
I know a lot of DW fans who don’t like Martha Jones. I’m not looking for a debate on why you do/don’t, but please just reblog this if you like Martha and think she was a good companion. I’m just curious to see how many fans really liked her.
I’ll jump on board.
there are a lot of posts like this that try to see how many people love martha.
I’ve never come across one so I made my own
oh no yeah that wasn’t meant as like a critique. sorry if it sounded snarky or something.
I <3 you and all martha lovers <3

I am head over heals in love with Claudia. And she just keeps getting more awesome as the series progresses.
AWESOME.
I love her hair, and her voice, and her bad-assery. and just everything about her.

what a good show. claudia and mykah are the best.
I’m waiting to see how this show goes. It seems like a good fun funky show for me to watch.
I started watching Warehouse 13
Claudia is the best.
(I’m on season 1 episode 6 so no spoilers or I will kill you)
Yeah… About Artie…
yeah fuck you for implying spoilers on a post I asked for none.
good job.
feel very proud of yourself
I got my hair cut.
it’s shorter.
:D
now I can do Ten’s hair but as it will work in my hair. (it’s a little too short to really be Ten’s hair but my hair won’t stand up when it’s that long)
I’m showing off.
look at my purdy face and my hurr

Homophobia isn’t the same as heteronormativity, at all, and I think that heteronormativity can be harder to fight because it’s so subconscious, so deeply ingrained throughout our entire society in all kinds of cultural productions, TV, film, books, everything. It’s everywhere. That’s harder to fight.

#yeah i think straight ppl sometimes assume the world can be sorted into homophobes and queer allies #which no it isn’t that fucking simple #and it’s a really dangerous assumption to make b/c you can support equal marriage and have queer friends and queer relatives #and yet still perpetuate heteronormative ideals on a daily fucking basis (via electricskeptic)
We might disagree over most things here in the Doctor Who fandom.
But I think we can all agree that Murray Gold is a wonderful composer.
Basically if you are not deeply critical of your own creative endeavors at least some of the time, you are probably either Gilderoy Lockhart or Steven Moffat.
Ahahahahahahahahahahaha get the fuck out.
Face with me with your face, and give me some sort of reason or description and then we’ll talk.
I don’t speak for the whole fandom, but most of the people I run across are not blatant hypocrites. I have seen more people accused of hating Moffat while simultaneously praising everything RTD does, then I have actually seen people who actually do that.
So please. Come and tell me why most people criticize Moffat. Pull me down off my high horse with an actual discussion instead of your wimp ass anonymous face.
Because I am not in the fuckin’ mood today.
Irene Adler (BBC Sherlock)
Irene Adler is a perfect example of a character with fantastic potential who was ruined by Moffat’s reckless sexism and queerbaiting. Powerful, queer and sexually empowered, Irene seems on the surface to be a feminist heroine in a show that doesn’t have a great history with the few female characters its had. But then, the episode began.
Before we even meet Irene, we’re posed to see her in a sexual light—something that doesn’t change much as the episode progresses. Of course, there’s nothing wrong with her being a sex worker. But on a writing level, the decision seems to be more about appealing to the male gaze by showing a pretty lady naked than showing a unique, complex, sex-working character. Despite the fact that she’s said to be incredibly intelligent, Irene relies heavily on her sex appeal—like so many of Moffat’s “genius” women do. Of course, it doesn’t work, because Genius White Man Sherlock Holmes is above such base desires, and that makes him better
Initially, she seems to be outwitting Sherlock and the others. Ultimately, however, she’s brought down by that oh-so prevelant feminine weakness: emotion. She falls for Sherlock, and makes his name her phone password. Because women are always fawning over men who are cold, uninterested and overtly rude to them.
Especially when they’ve never previously shown an interest in men. When John confronts Irene in the warehouse, and she teases that he and Sherlock are a couple, he says “I’m not gay,” to which she responds “Well I am. look at us both.” Because, if she was just a boring old lesbian, there’d be no romance. What’s the point of putting a woman in the show if she doesn’t have the hots for the main character, right?
Don’t get me wrong. I’m bisexual, and I know there are plenty of women who identify as lesbians and are attracted to men. Queerness is diverse. But if you explicitly establish her sexuality, and then undermine it for the sake of your romantic plot, that’s not representing diverse queerness. That’s bad, selfish writing. And of course, at the same time, John’s sexuality is being constantly undermined for the sake of queerbaiting.
For some reason, we get the classic Disney Princess ending for Irene. for some unexplained reason, she’s about to be beheaded, and Sherlock, also with absolutely no explanation, comes swooping in to save her at the last minute. I really don’t understand why that scene was tacked on, other than to show that Sherlock *really does have a heart* and to show Irene vulnerable.
Basically, I wanted to like Irene—I wanted to have a strong, complex female character and some REAL queer representation on the show. But instead I got this sexist, fan-servicey train wreck.
