Classic Doctor Who :: [Season 5 → The Enemy of the World] 

Next up is The Enemy of the World.

I'm somewhat excited to see if this is any good, because this is a story that was found in 2013, *after* the last time I watched Doctor Who.

Also, it's set in 2018

Classic Doctor Who :: [Season 5 → The Ice Warriors] 

It's been a week since I watched any Doctor Who, and tbh taking a break was a good idea, if unintentional.

I both love and hate The Ice Warriors. I love it because it's well done, but I hate it because it's constant moralising is grating.

I gave it a "maybe" in my recommendations: averylychee.neocities.org/doct

Since some people are talking about the “death of the URL” … again … it felt like the right time to re-post something I wrote 2 years ag on the topic medium.com/@torgo/in-defense-o including a link to research that seems to indicate people DO know what URLs are.

google, negative, source searching 

I'm trying to find the source for this, but I can't - if anyone can help me find it, that would be good.

If I can't source this by this time tomorrow, I'll delete the toot to prevent spread of misinformation

google, negative, reminder 

reminder that google is removing sites older than 10 years from their search engine, because they care less about good and accurate results and more about pushing you into places which will make them more money

LB: whoa, 5 years later, the game got released!

It's the one that famously was almost a cringey appropriative trainwreck (?) of Hopi culture but the author finally bailed on that concept at the last minute.

Disgruntled trashpanda trying to make Level 10 corporate employee by katamari damacy'ing the whole town sounds much cooler tbh
