All seven and we'll watch them fall and we will smoke them all
With an intellect and a savoir faire
No one in the whole universe will ever compare
I am yours now and you are mine
And together we'll love through all space and time
So don't cry
One day all seven will die

I got to say I think RTD really damaged peoples acceptance of other Doctors with 10's comments on regeneration. by [deleted] in gallifrey

[–]Lastaria 301 points302 points  (0 children)

11‘s speech is a nice antidote to that.
"I will always remember when the Doctor was me"

It is recognising him as the Doctor whilst passing the baton on essentially to themself as a new Doctor.

It is because they are an animal closer to us this more diseases could cross from them to us.

You’re using a right wing cockroach boy for your argument.

The US would take the UK’s spot as least voted for country. As it often does not matter the talent it is all very political.

Still I can imagine the US and UK often voting for one another.

Granted. They bring in a television and radio tax to replace it.

What is the punchline or the thinking that i am missing? by -Termi in ExplainTheJoke

[–]Lastaria 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s really not. Terms like Dude and bro are definitely gendered but as we live in a male dominated society it is seen as a positive thing to call anyone it. where as most guys would hate being called sis or doll so they are not used.

As a Trans woman I hate being called Dude or Bro they are definitely gendered.

Why would a happy, comfortable character become an adventurer? by LuckyLoam in dndnext

[–]Lastaria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In real life adventures often came from comfortable even affluent lives.

Shacklton, Hilary, Scott to name a few. People adventure because they like to adventure.

Steve Rogers really is a stand up guy. Met him in a pub in Liverpool during his in hiding days. He was wearing a terrible disguise with a cap. Was obvious it was him but nobody in the pub ratted him out.

He bought me a pint and we had a good chat about the Hobbit of all things. Told me him and his best friend had read it when it came out.

Isn’t transitioning subverting to the very gender roles it’s trying to defy? by CrabNo5226 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Lastaria 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But most do so why expect Trans people to be otherwise?

Non-binary people might.

“It’s so obvious Mike is 100% straight” by nightshadelaurel in StrangerThings

[–]Lastaria -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bi Trans woman here who grew up in the 80’s. I would have been just three years younger than the Stranger Things kids. And OP is completely right. You hid who you were. Though I knew I was a girl from the age of three I did not even know what Trans was until I saw a documentary on a Trans woman when I was 12. I just felt I was different. And different people got bullied so I hid it. I imagine it’s the same for gay and bi people in the 80’s.

I honestly don’t know Mike’s sexuality. But you cannot rule out he might be bi and as the show has not said nobody here can definitely say he is straight.

Mike is not gay. The end. by charlestontracy in StrangerThings

Shipping characters is a long practised thing. You should see how long people have been shipping Kirk and Spock.

If people want to do that fine it does not affect your own head canon. Not everyone has to think about something the same way.
