@fluffdragom I drew an Addison head I quite liked but had no other idea that'd fit in the canvas, so I made her a bust for when she's recognized for her achievements.

Classic Doctor Who | Season 9 

Season 9 has the honour of being the first season of Doctor Who where I recommend *every* story in the season.

I'm tempted to downgrade one of the stories just to make that not the case, but I probably won't.

@beadsland yeah, definitely a major part of it is "everyone involved in this *wants* to be there"

[Doctor Who] audio dramas — other threads 

(previous thread, detailing some stuff about the page I made (but not really anything about the dramas: computerfairi.es/@lizardsquid/ )

I'll be making updates less frequently in this thread as I do in my thread about the Classic TV show: computerfairi.es/@lizardsquid/

[Doctor Who] audio dramas — intro 

There are a lot of Doctor Who audio dramas, and it's somewhat overwhelming to figure out where to start.

So I'm making a guide: averylychee.neocities.org/doct

It contains some advice, as well as a complete list of every audio drama, in a "Natural Listening Order".

As I listen through the audio dramas myself, I'll be providing a simple indication of which ones are really good and which ones aren't.

@beadsland they're enrapturing, and exciting, and they tell more interesting stories than what you usually get on TV, like a story about a homicidal creature made of pure sound (Whispers of Terror), or a story about a fear-eating creature using a right-wing electoral candidate to stir up fear and then feed (The Fearmonger).

They're 100% Doctor Who, the writing is great, and the production quality is incredibly good.

I'm... 6 stories in to Big Finish's "Main Range", and I'm starting to consider the very real possibility that the audio dramas are like the TV show, but *significantly* better on average

I've fixed this second part with a filter.

...and just realised I can probably fix the first one with a filter too, removing my dependency on JS

oh my hecking gosh...

there's a feature I have been wishing pandoc has for years – some way of pre-processing the input with my own rules, so I can add my own simplifications for specific documents.

it turns out.... it's had this feature the whole time: pandoc.org/filters.html

and now I'm doing a worse thing... I'm generating content with CSS
