The zombie outbreak started 2 years ago now you find yourself cornered by a decaying zombie when you do the unthinkable and bite it first when it falls to the floor and grows its skin back and sits up and asks what is going on
(oh, he still has legion training experience wich is close to that or even worse I feel XDDD Well, i cannot unthink that he’d himself be rather the loudest of those kids...)
Imagine your favorite historical figure having to babysit 10 loud babies and just lying exhausted on the floor while the babies crawl all over him/her

Period Drama Meme Villains (1/3) — Colonel William Tavington
As much as I hate this website sometimes, I’m so grateful that it allowed me to meet people I never would’ve crossed paths with in real life.

This. So very much what I tend to headcanon about them. (Reminder for mysef: write down all that headcannon stuff. One day I will. Surely)
One important thing about my version of Simcoe is that he’s actually good friends with Andre. He’s friends with Andre, Tarleton, and de Lancey (the first two are true to history, the last one is inferred because de Lancey and Andre were friends). He enjoys spending time with them and doing the usual activities that soldiers do together; drink, gamble, play games, and make a mess of where ever they are (though Andre is the one that tends to clean up after them).
It’s also important to know that while Simcoe can be very vicious, this version is not vicious without cause. If he’s suspicious of someone, for whatever reason, he can easily be as ruthless as his Turn counterpart.
Simcoe also happens to have a soft spot for children and he ends up having nine children with his wife, Elizabeth Posthuma Simcoe. In his years during the Revolution, he wasn’t exactly a good with kids but he wasn’t a bad influence. He was just a bit awkward.

Peter Capaldi deserved the fanfare that Matt and David got. He deserved to be the Doctor who had tons of action figures, had Doctor Who Confidential, an era that had a bunch of spin offs that didn’t bomb, plenty of tie in novels that helped many children learn to love reading and big Proms celebrations with him showing up in character. Whenever I see him show up to brighten up childrens days, I wish this dear and wonderful man who is a blessing to this terrible world got all the love David and Matt got. I feel like we failed him. He gave his heart and his soul into the role. Peter Capaldi deserved better..

reblog and make a wish! this was removed from tumbrl due to “violating one or more of Tumblr’s Community Guidelines”, but since my wish came true the first time, I’m putting it back. :)

favorite comment I read on FB: Peter Capaldi should regenerate to Peter Capaldi (albeit 5 minutes older) #DoctorWho
Отличный пост, ящетаю. Расширим теорию заговора, гулять так гулять: а первую ТАРДИС во вселенной создал Моффат! Потому что, ну он же во всем виноват.
Toy Story has a toss-away line that I don’t think even Lawrence Miles believes, but is sure interesting to think about:
the timeships created the time lords
‘They always think they’re the ones in charge. They have done ever since Mother back-engineered their history for them.’ … The Ships hadn’t needed a point of creation; they were supposed to be above that sort of thing. Minor issues like “linear time” and “causality” weren’t even worth discussing, not in the normal run of things, so why bother retro-creating an entire species simply to justify your own existence?
THIS. yay, I’m not the only one to notice this moment. Ah well it can mean nothing of course, but provokes sooo many thoughts...
So I was rewatching new Doctor Who series 9 episode 12 “Hell Bent”, and I realized something, and I couldn’t find any mention of this on the internet (though I didn’t look very hard).
So basically, when Clara and Doctor are in the Cloister Room trying to find a way out, they go through a conversation about rumor of a young Gallifreyan, who once went into the Cloister Room, and the Sliders (Cloister people) told him a way out. Well, in the conversation Clara asks the Doctor
“ What, and the kid told you the secret? ” To which the Doctor replies
“ Ah, no, he didn’t tell anyone anything. He went completely mad. Never right in the head again, so they say. The last I heard, he stole the moon and the President’s wife. “
Clara immediately realized he was talking about himself and asks if the President’s wife was nice. To that the Doctor replied
“ Ah, well, that was a lie put about by the Shabogans. It was the President’s daughter. I didn’t steal the moon, I lost it.” The key element here is “it was the President’s daughter”.
I am very certain he is talking about Susan! His granddaughter! I’m certain because he is talking in a sense that refers to his early days, which is evident of his expression “The last i heard”, which was to express something that happened a long time ago.
This means, that if I’m correct, Susan, who is the granddaughter of the Doctor, is also a daughter of one of Gallifrey’s presidents’. That would mean, that Doctor is the father to that certain president.
If you want to check the references, here’s a link to the transcript of “Hell Bent”: http://www.chakoteya.net/DoctorWho/35-12.html
If there are any flaws, please point them out, I’d love to hear if my theory is flawed in any fashion!
honestly saying, I want all of OT4 there - at least to be mentioned.oh sweet dream...
well, first I made this blog just for the sake of errr watching and reading others. now I can’t get over a terrible english-speaking itch, sooooo, will have to use this place for some doctor who and bfa-gallifrey thoughts that are better expressed in english than in russian. Later, of course.

Reblog if you want Peter Capaldi to be the Doctor for as long as possible
Now that’s the right words I tried to formulate not so long ago. Still worried about this comment, btw.
Now he said “sooner than later”, are you guys satisfied?
😋
Does it need saying?..
well so did I
I want to know if I’m the only one who didn’t hate the episode. I loved it actually.
DAYS LEFT IMMEDIATE LIFE OR DEATH HELP NEEDED ONE LAST TIME
Tumblr friends. You all saved my life. Unfortunately I need help one last time to keep it that way.
You helped me pay down a hospital bill so I could have major brain surgery in October. Well, the bill for that is $9,600- Medicaid covered the hospital, NOT the doctor(!!). due to financial hardship, it’s reduced to $4,500. (more than half my annual income, on Disability).
The problem: the doctor HAS TO adjust and monitor my new neuro implant every other week, and I WILL DIE WITHOUT THE ADJUSTMENTS. But he is NOT ALLOWED to see me more than once more unless this is paid.
The reduction has conditions: I must pay $1,000 by Dec 16, and the $3,500 balance by Dec 23.
This is a terrible blow to me, unreal. The frustration and fear is simply overwhelming.
So, sadly, I must ask for help one least time (I’ll get on Free Care in April). You’ve all already been so generous. The SPNFamily, fandoms, and Tumblr at large has been amazing. And if there were any way to avoid asking, I would.
PLEASE DONATE IF YOU CAN! I’ve set up a PayPal with the email lartpourlartnow@gmail.com to accept funds (if you “send to a friend” there’s no fee). The hospital can only accept payment from me. I know the Holidays are already an expensive time. Maybe give someone the gift of saving a life in their name? And I know I recently got so much help from you all. If I had any way to avoid this I would. And of course I’m happy to repay with fics, songs, editing, or anything I can.
As it is I’m also homeless and sometimes staying with my violent abusive parents, other times staying with friends. Every cent I get is going to other medical expenses and necessities.
PLEASE SHARE THIS as far and wide as you can! Share it as text so everyone can read and share again. Whether or not you can give, others may be able to.
Thank you all so so much! Below are some photos just to show what I mean. They called me with the settlement, but the original bill is there, as well as a few of my scars (yes they shaved the whole side of my head).
Thank you again! PLEASE DONATE AND SHARE IF YOU CAN, and ask me any questions.
[Update: WOW! So far you’ve all gotten me to almost half of the total bill! YOU ARE AMAZING! PLEASE DONATE AND KEEP SHARING so I can survive this!]
dustline:
Sopranish is my friend, and I’ve personally witnessed the reality of her struggles, so I can vouch for both the urgency and the legitimacy of this plea for help. She is on a time crunch and really scared, so any shares or donations would be so, so appreciated. Every little thing helps!!
