the original rainbow pride flag created by Gilbert Baker, featuring stripes in the colours hot pink, red, orange, yellow, green, turquoise, blue, and purple

the progress pride flag, consisting of the rainbow flag (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple), along with chevrons in black and brown (representing people of colour), baby blue, pink, and white (representing trans people), and yellow with a purple ring (representing intersex people)

i like that the pink and turquoise made their way back into the rainbow pride flag :)

WHEW YES

tumblr post by valley dean. transcribed: my whole thing is just that like. there was no point to any of it. there was no point in bringing back the rani, a character that many people wanted back for decades, we had this whole build up with ms flood for two whole ass seasons for the rani's plan to be inconsequential to anything that happens and brushed aside in the first 30 mins. there was also no point to her bigenerating if the "real" rani just gets... eaten? there was no point to the doctor letting the rani bring out the omega, a character steeped in the mythos of doctor who, only to make him a giant skeleton who gets shoved back into his little jail after 30 seconds there was no point to being like "time lord are sterile and that's why poppy is so important" only to make her not the doctor's daughter in the end there was no point in putting bel into a box the whole episode so they could focus on ruby instead for some reason. and there was no point in shoehorning her into a mother role when her character is predicated on not giving into gender norms andddd after she specifically said she wanted to travel with the doctor now (they did her so dirty all season. she could have been a super memorable companion but they just did not give her a chance and then LITERALLY shoved her into a box) there was no point in the doctor being able to heal himself with bigeneration energy only to have to regenerate instead of using that instead there was no point in thirteen coming back for 2 seconds there was no point in susan popping up (another character we've waiting a longgggg time to see again) there was no point in ruby's memories there was no point in rose noble (story of her life) and now they got rid of a very charismatic and wonderful actor in their titular role for a gimmick russell... stop wasting my time.

tumblr post by mulder scully. transcribed: okay. i need people to understand the main issue here. ncuti gatwa is the first (full time) black doctor. his entrance was overshadowed by david tennant. his entire run has been the least watched run, many of you admit you did not watch his era. now, after only 16 episodes and a few specials he has regenerated and all people are talking about is billie piper. do you really not see the issue at all? and don't even get me started on what they did to belinda! i'm so BOGGLED by the amount of disrespect thrown at fifteen. he barely got to BE HIS OWN CHARACTER. we barely know him and he's gone. unreal.

tumblr post by kirian the divorce. transcribed: Episode one Belinda: breaks up with her boyfriend because he's a controlling misogynistic prick who wants her to conform to the role of wife and mother, when he later kidnaps her to force her to marry him she calls him an incel and explodes him Episode eight Belinda: I can't help you with the battle I'm no use at saving the world, the best thing I can do is stand in this box with my daughter and be a mother, I love being a mother, please rewrite my entire timeline so that I have a daughter, I'm so glad this right wing incel fascist rewrote reality so that women are wives and mothers because that means I am a mother to my daughter

tumblr post from morgana's pendragons. transcribed: so we had: an indian woman talking to another indian women about blood purity the indian rani being a dictator and then getting killed for no reason while the white rani survives the indian companion being randomly shoved into the role of mother and then getting sidelined in favour of the white companion from the previous series the black, openly queer doctor regenerating into a white woman from a previous series russell t davies back to his old tricks i see

some good posts from tumblr re: the reality war

i intended for my bluesky to be positive or at least not so outwardly negative, but i'm genuinely so offended by the reality war

RIP belinda chandra from the robot revolution. i miss you so much angel.

i felt like i'd complained too much about the finale on tumblr so i came here to complain more lmaoooo

When the strong independent and challenging female character with initiative literally winds up in a box, barely doing anything and then has her history erased to make her a mom and have that changed to be her motivation all along … #doctorwho

Spoilers⚠️ I will say Belinda’s ending is quite disappointing. The way she was written like her soul was sucked out and replaced with her only personality trait is I’m a mom that can’t do anything now. This is not great character we had in literally had in every other story in this series. #DoctorWho

BBC sherlock is the only one of superwholock to not have a scene in the finale in which the main character's male love interest says "i love you," dies in hell, and is never mentioned again. awesome #doctorwho

choosing to live in my own wish world where the reality war never happened #doctorwho

i loved ncuti as the doctor. 73 yards, rogue, the robot revolution, lux, & the story and the engine were highlights for me. ncuti was both the first black actor and the first queer actor to play the doctor & that's so special. i'll miss him a lot.

i did not enjoy the reality war.

Belinda leaving by getting straight up replaced with a different AU characterization is not Doctor Who's finest moment.

This is your regular reminder to ignore rumours ESPECIALLY if they are coming from The Sun, Daily Mail, The Mirror etc

smol bean and cinnamon roll will be making a comeback because if we're going backwards let's at least have fun with it

i use the womens' toilets, because i am shit scared of what would happen if i didn't, i use the disabled toilets where possible but sometimes i have to pick a gender and i know that if i go to the men's, i am going to get beaten up and i am a rather weak, vulnerable thing physically (1/5)

me and my dog are each other's emotional support animal and we are both bad at it

Aliss from The Well sits, and behind her, peeking out, the terrifying visage of Mr Blobby.

idk i think we got to see *just* enough of the Midnight entity for it to be truly truly chilling

Photo of the Doctor, played by Ncuti Gatwa, and Mr Ring-a-Ding, a cartoon man. Mr Ring-a-Ding is standing behind the Doctor and adjusting his bow-tie with a big smile on his face while the Doctor looks at Mr Ring-a-Ding with lidded eyes and a slight smirk.

i'm so sorry but the facial expressions... the doctor is fucking that cartoon #doctorwho
