awwwwright
finished writing the Nightmare Sleep Scenario
I’ve also been writing a number of different possible afterlife scenarios lately, and the last one I started was about a version of Hell where you are a commuter in the London underground at impossibly busy levels, with permanent unending sensory overload, and it is extremely unpleasant to the degree where I’ve felt slightly...

ooo. sounds neat.
Thank’y! I think so too (if I do say so myself, which I guess I do) though if I read it back through this time tomorrow I’ll shake my head at my own impertinence, probably.
I don’t know why nightmarish Future scenarios are so awesome to write about, considering how much...
I am writing a short story about Future Earth
In the Future, the concept of sleep is very different, for a reason I haven’t fabricated yet
Instead of drifting into unawareness, or elaborate visions presented by your subconscious, you remain in a state of half-awakening, where you simply lie exactly where you are for as many hours as you happen to sleep, losing all sense of connection to...

Grand Who Review: Whispers of Terror
Title: Whispers of Terror [by Justin Richards, 1999]
What is it? It’s a standalone Big Finish audioplay, number 03 in the main range.
Doctor: Sixth
Companions: Peri
—-
The plot: 6/10. Interesting concept, though I always struggle with the fantasy-sci-fi critters suddenly popping up! I do like the way the plot takes advantage of the audio format. I think this play and ‘Omega’...

turntechlongbottom replied to your post: Grand Who Review: Phantasmagoria
I love Phantasmagoria! Maybe partially just because it was the first Big Finish drama I ever heard, so it holds a special place in my heart, but I really do love it.
Awesome! :D It was among the first I got on CD, but I’d been listening in via other means for a while beforehand so it didn’t stick out quite as...

Grand Who Review: Phantasmagoria
Title: Phantasmagoria [by Mark Gatiss, 1999]
What is it? It’s a standalone Big Finish audioplay, number 02 in the main range.
Doctor: Fifth
Companions: Turlough
—-
The plot: 6/10. S’aight! Not bad! I tend to feel of most things Mark Gatiss writes that the plots themselves are not incredible works of art - mostly clear-cut Bad Guy versus mostly clear-cut Good Guys - but the way...

– Metro, September 30, 2011 (via doctorwho)
So, more or less, I am going to be sobbing thought this entire episode?

I uploaded a CD to iTunes because it was Johnny Cash dueting June Carter Cash, and I like Johnny Cash’s voice a lot
But I am beginning to regret it
As a rule, each song seems to go:
“I AM A MAN AND I STRIVE FOR FREEDOM, BOTH PHYSICALLY AND EMOTIONALLY, FROM THE WORLD AND FROM YOU, AND I AM LEAVING TO GO TRAVELLING WITH MY GUITAR”
“I AM A WOMAN AND I AM ANNOYED BY YOUR...

‘The Feeling’s latest album is more obviously about sexual relationships than the others were
But it’s all right, I forgive them
I can just pretend dancing isn’t a metaphor for rumpy-pumpy

When ‘Doctor Who’ comes up in conversation my mum tends to say it’s a shame that David Tennant isn’t in it anymore and that Matt Smith is repulsive
I always laugh and say “NO HE IS THE HANDSOMEST BRICKFACED MAN I’VE EVER SEEN” and laugh more and I don’t think it helps my case
But she is so uncultured about Doctor Who, which is an actual thing that...

Two years for me.

I was encouraged to write and illustrate short stories for money (like 5 WHOLE PENNIES) when I was a child to make me better at reading and writing
So since I was able...

All the Subscriptions are broken (if you click on your username and then on “Subscriptions”, you’ll get a 500 Error Page) – so YouTube shows you some other stuff.
Ah! :/ Well, it’s good to know it’s not just me, anyways.
What has happened to the Youtube homepage?!
Have I accidentally changed all the settings or is this how it’s supposed to look?
Videos arranged in genres
None of which I’m interested in

How can River be both in the suit and at the Doctor’s death? Just timey wimey stuff? :/
Yuss, timey-wimey!
As far as I can tell, River’s timeline goes:
conceived on bunkbed
born & kidnapped
given mental conditioning in spacesuit as child
escapes and regenerates
spends adolescence perving on her unwitting parents
meets Doctor for first time (this during ‘Let’s Kill...

All right I’ve decided not to go to the ‘Bad Writing’ event on Friday
I looked into the schedule and it sounds considerably more intense and academic than I was hoping for - in order to attend I’d need to do some additional reading
As well as all my actual reading for my actual course
Also I’d be going alone, into rooms I’ve never been to before among people...

I had the Graphire 4 since Christmas ‘08 but it was very small. The Cintiq is SO FANCY. I got it relatively cheap (790€ instead of like 1200€) and I thought „what the hell“. Also I’ll be studying Design soon and I believe it will come in handy.
Yeah, if you’re going to be doing arty things for study or for work, it’s...

Grand Who Review: The Sirens of Time
Title: The Sirens of Time [by Nick Briggs, 1999]
What is it? It’s a Big Finish audioplay, number 01 in the main range.
Doctors: Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh
Companions: None

The plot: 5/10. Well, not bad! It’s split into four sections - one for each Doctor on his lonesome, and then a meet-up section. Not all of the sections are as strong as others and it sometimes feels a...

I had the Bamboo Fun since Summer 2009. (Two weeks after my purchase the new version (that you probably own) came out, seriously.) But in may I finished a website for someone who had too much money and so I bought the Cintiq 12wx. I’m a show-off.
Ooh! Cintiq! FANCY STUFF.
I’m only a hobbyist so I...
unapologeticfangirl replied to your post: Your comics made my day. I demand you post them more often!
What makes me smile is that it’s like looking at my own life in cartoon form! It makes me feel like I have some company on this green and blue spinning ball.
That’s excellent :D I think that’s the ultimate aim of autobio comics. I feel similarly when I read ‘em!
I am pleased...

I think I’ve got some sand in my eye from the sand tray at my counselling place
Having sand trays available to muck about with is a really good idea, it’s very distracting when you’re getting all worked up
I probably should’ve made sure to dust my hands of thoroughly before dabbing my eye daintily with a tissue though
I give up
My eyes hurt
I didn’t do anything interesting during 9pm
HOURLIES CONCLUDE FOR NOW

Is this Bill? One, joking will be okay. Two, find his direct email - he doesn’t really respond to the VLE iirc.
Naw, it’s Markman, so I think it should still be fine.
Also, that’s possibly a good idea :I Not checking emails regularly is MY job, not the lecturers’!
Nervously joking to lecturer in email
Haven’t sent it yet
