lmfao i loved that the sinister neighbour lady was completely unrelated to the plot, she just had unrelated evil plans going on
Pointing at a street sign with nobody there to see you counts as "naming your child" now, does it?
The funniest thing about the nonsensical claim
"What happens if you bring death to death? You bring life!"
is that the Doctor doesn't even believe it himself
I mean, by bringing Sutekh - the personification of Death - to all those dead worlds, the worlds come back to life? Ok, i think it's silly, but if you say so...
BUT THEN
"If you're Death, then I must represent Life! [...] You turned me into this. I am the one who brings death."
So the doctor literally SAYS, explicitly, that he is the one who brings death to Death by killing Sutekh.
So why is he sad about that, huh? By his OWN logic, he just brought life! He brought death to Death!
It just doesn't make sense man...
"What happens if you bring death to death? You bring life!!"
well thats the stupidest thing ive ever heard. what
Sutekh clinging to the TARDIS all this time is SO funny considering what the TARDIS has been through since then
Jack Harkness and Sutekh clinging to the TARDIS at the same time
When the TARDIS got all bighuge on Trenzalore?
When the TARDIS was exploding for an entire season?
When the Doctor was in the confession dial for billions of years, and also when Eleven stayed on that one planet for thousands of years. Sutekh just waiting in the same spot with nothing to do lmao
All the times the TARDIS got shot at, or dropped in lava, or crashed into things, etc
And the many times the Doctor's enemies scanned the TARDIS with much more advanced sensors than UNIT has!
Were they all just like "well thats none of my business" or what
Or as my friend @cakesandfail suggested: Maybe they all saw Sutekh and he was just there shaking his head and going "shh it's a surprise!"
So does Fourteen have a copy of Sutekh hanging out on his copy of the TARDIS or what

It didn't click for me right away, but "I'm fine because you fixed yourself. We're Time Lords. We're doing rehab out of order." is an explicit statement that, from the moment he begins to exist, 15 already has all the memories that 14 will ever accrue.
So rather than a true mitosis-style duplication like the term "bi-generation" might imply, what we actually have here is more an issue of temporal displacement and/or causality failure. 14 still ultimately feeds into 15, but with an inexplicable disconnect between cause and effect that's consistent with the reality-breaking nonsense of whatever the hell the Toymaker is. When the Toymaker says, "Your own rules have decreed I play my third game with the next Doctor.'' that's not just a fun way of saying 'I'm gonna kill you now', he's outright breaking causality to acquire the next Doctor fully formed ahead of schedule.
All of which is to say that 14 shouldn't spawn a separate regeneration chain when he dies, helping to mitigate the whole "cursed to outlive my loved ones" issue that's always the elephant in the room in this kind of plot.
Funniest thing to me is that RTD already GAVE David Tennant that kind of domestic family happy ending
And he just gave it to him AGAIN

"This is the second time we have played --"
Is my puppet-ised son a JOKE TO YOU?!
[ID: Cover for Big Finish Doctor Who "Solitaire" featuring Charlie and the Toymaker. Charley has a puppet of the 8th Doctor on her lap]
The way the Brigadier would scoff at the ridiculous notion of asking the DOCTOR for permission to use any kind of weapon
#the brig never once listened to what the doctor said#and now kate is like. pwease give us permission to shoot a satellite?#Like. I think Kate's approach is better for the record#but i find it extremely funny how it's the complete opposite#and i would love to see the brig's reaction#dw#dw spoilers#doctor who#doctor who spoilers#the giggle#kate stewart#the brig#myposts

I've been watching so many shows lately where someone pulls an aha! you're faking using a wheelchair! because someone stood up once or walked a little. and so seeing it presented here, where not only do we have Shirley stand up, but also the accusation that she's not really disabled because she can stand is explicitly a paranoid and offensive rant. it's just. I like seeing it! I don't know if Shirley is supposed to have spina bifida like the actor apparently has, but I do like that she's not just neatly paralyzed like most portrayals of wheelchair users. and not just because it's my new blorbo Shirley being pointed about it, either.
