I feel like our economy has been driven by mass production for so long that we’ve forgotten just how intensely time-consuming making things by hand is. Mass production was revolutionary for a reason. It DRASTICALLY reduced the cost of things. And I’m all for making things more affordable! But the problem arises when people decide they want something handmade for the cost of something mass produced. People get an idea in their mind “this is how much x item should cost” when in actuality that’s how much a machine made version of that thing costs. Then they hear the price of something made entirely by hand and think “that person is ripping me off.” If you want something handmade, you have to compensate the person making it fairly.
It’s been something of a staple of modern Doctor Who, but there’ll be absolutely no romantic frisson aboard the TARDIS in the next series.
Jodie Whittaker has insisted that we’ll see nothing more than friendship between the Doctor and her trio of companions.
“We are a friendship group in this season,” she told The Times.
Quizzed about a possible love connection between the Doctor and one of her new friends – a la the Doctor and Rose (Billie Piper) – Whittaker responded: “No. But we all love each other.”
Whittaker’s Time Lord will be joined by Graham (Bradley Walsh), Yaz (Mandip Gill) and Ryan (Tosin Cole) in her travels through time and space.
“It feels like a family by the end of it,” Gill previously told Digital Spy of the team’s dynamic. “For my character, there’s times where she wants to go home and make sure everything’s okay. But I feel like by the end of it, while she knows it’s always an option to go home, this is kind of her new family.”
“It starts off as a bit of chaos,” added Cole. “It’s all over the place… and then we just kind of gel. There’s more of an understanding of each other and [a sense of] knowing each other’s strengths and weaknesses.”
The new series is envisioned as a fresh start for the veteran BBC sci-fi series, with new series boss Chris Chibnall ruling out appearances from old characters and monsters – including River Song (Alex Kingston), the Daleks, the Cybermen and the Weeping Angels.

Good thing climate change is a hoax and we don’t have to worry about any large natural disasters coming along.
It’s also great news bc everyone knows that all undocumented immigrants (and many documented ones) are obviously killer gang members and a humongous national security risk. So obviously it makes sense to fund ICE with whatever money Trump can grab.
On a related note, how long are we gonna wait till we defund medicaid to finally pay for some more bombs, right?
