Classic Doctor Who :: [missing episodes musing] 

Something I've noticed is this: when a doctor who story is missing all but 1 episode, the surviving episode is often the most boring one.

The evil of the Daleks only has episode 2 remaining, which is mostly faffing about with a side character, and only features the Daleks in the last few seconds.

Until 2013, only one episode of The enemy of the world survived, and that was the episode with a bunch of unnecessary filler

Fury from the Deep

I don't know anything about this one!
I do appreciate that it doesn't start with "the", though

job search, food mention 

I updated my resume.... it's much better now.

Biggest things:
* Aesthetically it looks like a lolly instead of like a melon salad.
* No longer mentions me being nonbinary, but still explicitly says that the workplace must be LGBT+ friendly
* I doubled the font size, which meant I had to cut out a heckload of words and just focus on the essential stuff

what other scripting languages are small, start quickly, and are nice for CGI scripts

weight, eating disorder, dieting, fatphobia, psa 

stop. talking. about. weight. and weight loss. all the time.
I'm serious. stop. every time you say shit like "i shouldn't eat that" or "i need to lose weight" or talk about your diet and weight loss efforts, you're shitting on the health and existence of fat people, people with eating disorders, people with weight or dieting issues. you're saying you value thin-ness over your bodies need for food. tbc

I think I'm going to try and replace a bunch of my microblogging time with macroblogging – lengthier posts, with space to actually go on tangents.

Also I want to work on that forum software I was designing again...

Classic Doctor Who :: [Season 5 → The Web of Fear] 

The Web of Fear is only missing one episode.

And it just happens to be the first episode to feature Colonel Lethbridge-Stewart (later Brigadier), one of the most beloved characters from the classic series.

The cliffhanger at the end of episode 1 could have been better, if they just cut the episode 3 seconds earlier:

The doctor is nearing some explosives, when someone presses the button to detonate.
They could have cut here, but they didn't – they cut after the explosives fail to go off properly and the Doctor is mearly knocked aside.
