From the personal Nerdist Collection of Whovian Gear Item #104:

Dalek London shirt.

All in all, I think I still want “The Angels have the phone box” more. But this is good too.

Deconstructed Pocket Watches Look Like Gallifreyan

cross-sectionofthewhovian: Holy——. Suddenly Circlular Gallifreyan makes so much more sense!

something-doctor-who-related: I was thinking exactly the same!

unicorn-fish: omg

pretendprism: woahhhhhhhhh

grrrbarrowman: I bet there’s a Time Lord in some other dimension looking at this picture and laughing hysterically at the dirty limerick it spells out

drivemytardis: Oh, I see, now it makes sense… Time lords… Aaaaaaaaw yeah.

THE MANTA.

It speaks the truth.

Sounds like prosopagnosia to me. Maybe the cartoon thing…

Tumblr does give you a character limit. Next to the reply button it says “250 max”. The number there goes down as you type. If you keep typing past zero, the number goes into negative, turns red, and the reply button stops being clickable.

Sounds like prosopagnosia to me. Maybe the cartoon thing feeds into my love of sci-fi. The more species diversity in the cast, the easier it is to tell them apart. Damn humans all look alike….

Hair colour only helps so much. At one point my Girl Scout troop had four girls with blonde shoulder-length hair. They all looked alike. Two of them were named Ashley (not really), so I called them all Ashley. That way I had a 50% chance of being right instead of 25%.

All too often, the third person you’re talking to asks “Which one?”, and you’re back to 25%. All too often, the coin of fate lands on tails and the people who don’t even realise there is a left slope laugh at you. (They clearly have some mysterious superpower.)

(250 character limit is hard. This must be what it’s like on Twitter.)

Simon Pegg IS in an episode of Doctor Who :) Being an editor I think. And before the fandom tells you (they get pissy about this apparently) it’s Doctor Who, not Dr. (people are weird o.O)

Actually, no…

I know! It’s such a novelty to figure out who someone is. Faceblindness means I’m stuck in hard mode when playing Guess the Actor. (This is a Thing in my family. Mom picks a character she recognises (she’s best) and Brother and I guess who they are.)

Also: I hear facial recognition ability is a bell curve spectrum. Which would presumably make borderline prosopagnosia a thing, or rather prosopagnosia an arbitrary cut-off point somewhere on the left slope.

How did I miss the bit where he tries to chew through handcuffs? What episode is that from?

[Image is a picture—it looks like a painting—of Yggdrasil, with each of the nine realms in its roots; each is labeled in runes, and there’s some other stuff that I can’t read. End terrible description.]

Yggdrasil, by fenix42

this is sweet

FUCK THIS TREE YOU GUYS

It is a lovely picture but OMG this tree I HATE IT FOREVER.

The stuff you can’t read is (to me) sort of readable in the original size and clearly readable in the zoomed-in version. They’re descriptions of the worlds in question.

Top row: world of fire, world of ice

Middle row: world of the frost giants, world of the Aesir, world of the light elves

Bottom row: world of the dead, world of the humans, world of the Vanir, world of the dark elves

Not being able to read runes or particularly familiar with Norse myth*, I can’t match all of the descriptions with the worlds’ names off the top of my head. I am given to understand that the world of the dead is called Hel and the world of the humans is called Midgard, and indeed they do have the right number of letters to be those.

*I think this is a non-offensive term, right? If not, I apologise.

wearemagneton asked: You keep using the word “Changeling” and I keep not thinking of Star Trek. And so I get confused for a minute and then realize “oh wait right. Odo-changeling. Not fae-Changeling.” Anyway that was a Very Good Post thank you! C: –PM and Andy

Thank you and you’re welcome!

It is a bit unfortunate that the writers went with “Changeling”, which could mean a zillion other things. (“Founder” is even worse, because a: even more meanings, and b: do I really want to compare myself to the people responsible for the Dominion?) Plus my actual species is a bit private, at least when talked about as being mine rather than a purely fictional creation. (That’s what I told a forum comprised mostly of writers when explaining my username there. Said username also contains my legal first name, which gives another reason not to say it.)
