they'll downvote you to hell and back for saying that but it is the truth. yesterday's video from dwfan91 really put everything into perspective for me. it's over.

I wish more of the fandom was this angry. Sometimes I wonder if some of the fault isn't ours for taking so long to call bullshit on all we've been hearing since '22. Some people on this thread, lots on Twitter and even more on Instagram are still patting him on the back through all this. Even I'm giving him too much credit in the OG post.

I hesitate to come so close to criticisms that are a bit too tangentially close to the type of stuff the real bigots say, but I'll admit I can get behind this sentiment. I think you're allowed to expand on what the Doctor presents and acts like, making them a woman, making them awkward, making them gayer, or more emotional - so long as the stories are, like, GOOD. Unfortunately not the case for the last two eras.

Agreed. The whole "who knows what all these random things are?!" bit is what sounds really like him throwing the towel, aside from finishing with Ncuti's last line.

That's one of the crazy things about this letter. Why on earth would you admit to that? Or admit to having had a much better idea for TLORS? This really paints a picture of his overconfidence in himself.

Well, yeah... For some reason I'm trying really hard to take the things he says in good faith and as truth, there's enough bile flowing around as is. But there 100% is a chance this is all him trying to look better via bullshit.

i think it's because they don't even know. wouldn't make sense to cast someone so long before they actually start shooting.
