The schad is on us,

Yes, your smartphone likely carries more germs than a toilet. A 2011 study from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine found one out of every six smartphones contained fecal matter. Gross.

Arguments have also started about whether or not this means Doctor Who counts as transgender, and whether the BBC should have done better by having a black woman instead of a white woman.

It was written by Steven Moffat, the person responsible for several series of the reboot.

People write far, far less hetero or lesbian or woman only bisexuals fanfics, so nothing will change. If I recall anything from reading fics as a teen, anyways. I think someone had done a study on all the fanfics produced on archive of our own, and found that out of fifty? Or so? Most popular pairings, only one lesbian ship pairing was written about enough to make note of. Which is kind of sad because that implies theres a shitton of straight women fetishizing gay male relationships.

Wait sorry this is the schedan thread. I'll stop now. Anyways, post some nerd rage about doctor who if you got it!

Wait, seriously? I'd have thought there'd be hordes of male nerds writing about hot chicks making out. Or are male nerds just less literary-inclined?

Hmm, she was in Attack the Block and Black Mirror (and Downton Abbey if you're into that sort of rubbish) so it seems like she's in a bit of a slump now though but I guess it's steady work :shrug:
