@fluffdragom Although it's not her usual hoard (that'd be girlfriends) random treasure does tug on a dragon's guarding instinct. Addi couldn't resist a few moments of protecting her new hoard.

Maybe she'll get some of her established hoard to carry this one back home. :3

Classic Doctor Who | Some stats 

I've now watched 333 episodes (39.17% of the total number), and recommended just over half of them.

Classic Doctor Who | Season 10 | The Three Doctors 

I do wonder what the scripts would have been like, if William Hartnell had been healthy enough to participate more.

(As his health had degraded significantly in the 6 years since he left the role, he was only able to sit in a chair and read a few lines for the story, he wasn't able to be active or remember too much of a script)

Classic Doctor Who | Season 10 | The Three Doctors 

Seeing Troughton and Pertwee interact in episode one was really cool, but in the second episode they're seperated, and seeing their different approaches to things (both as actors and as different characters) is great

Classic Doctor Who | Season 10 | The Three Doctors 

The Three Doctors is so good. It's a great story in general, but it's also a great season opener and a great anniversary story.

The major conceit is that there's a problem so big that the timelords have crossed the Doctor's timelines together, so the first 3 Doctors can help out.

@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.

[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.

doctor who audio dramas 

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

Critism of ‘women and nonbinary people, but no men’ posts 

i don’t like my nonbinary being lumped in with women?

I feel like I’m being told I’m enough like a woman my experiences and oppressions must match up enough to fit into the woman box.

But. I’m a non binary *man*. I can’t relate to women’s stuff bc...I’ve never been one. Been *mistaken* for one, but that’s not the same.
it’s never ‘NBs and men only’

I feel like ppl think we’re all woman aligned. Or it’s a way to shove us in the binary box again.

doing a bad thing, web programming 

I know I shouldn't, but... I decided I wanted the rows of the tables to be coloured according to what I think of the story. But because my source file is markdown, doing that directly would be super ugly, so instead.... I generate the colours of the tables with Javascript
