I'd love to write fanfiction for classic doctor who.... except, I'd have to use the same companions.

For modern Doctors, there are periods of time where they are offscreen and have no companions (for example, after Rose slips into an alternate universe, the Tenth Doctor travels alone for an unspecified amount of time before finally meeting Martha).

better idea: less generic, but more specific. Instead of

"This story contains an actor in yellowface", I can write
"This story contains a white actor in makeup to make them appear Asian"

@Fenreliania that's you!

@NicoleTheLizard@queer.af *snuggle snug*

@NicoleTheLizard@queer.af *squeeze*

So far in my guide, I've used "blackface" and "yellowface" when actors have been dressed in those - but I'm considering replacing them with a term that's more generic.

Maybe "racial makeup"?

@BatElite good luck with the appointment, sweetheart

The Abominable Snowmen was set in the Himalayas, and so was scheduled to be filmed on the Welsh mountain of Snowdon during a snowy period.

But the week before (and the week of) shooting, it didn't snow - it rained. So the outdoor shops are not as snowy as was desired, and the ground was muddy which made filming difficult

@popefucker@cybre.space yay!

@daylight oh no!

@Tarale ah gosh, good luck

@Tarale here's an article a friend wrote after that discover, which talks about some alternative apps: https://theunderlinguist.blogspot.com/2018/03/on-net-2-introduction-to-mastodon-and.html

@Tarale tootdon doesn't have alt text, as far as I can tell.

It's also.... very suspicious, because the developers make it upload every toot you make (and every toot you SEE) to their own private server, and refuse to explain why they're saving everyone's toots and DMs...
