From Silence in the Library.
Biographies. A death at the end. And the Doctor talking about the (Plain of) Size/Sighs. Good thing the title of this episode isn’t also suggestive of the major antagonist of the current season.
Oh wait.
A minute later in the same episode:
Donna: Doctor, why’re we here? Really, why? Doctor: Oh, you know, just… passing. Donna: No, seriously, it was...

Unpopular opinion.
Instant, overblown outrage.
Long-winded, overly-personal and emotional response.
Sarcastic derision of everyone involved.
Smartass comment, followed by earnest and unnecessarily literal dissection of all previous comments.

And then I retreated to my bed early…
…with fifteen pounds of books by Roger Zelazny, Ray Bradbury, and David Weber.
Between those and the small but functional library on my iPad, I should have plenty of good science fiction and fantasy writing to analyse and research.
Ladies.
I now have an ask page. →
But I make absolutely zero promises about answering any particular question.

It’s now twenty-seven years after the date portrayed in George Orwell’s 1984, and we can be grateful that none of the horrifying possibilities enumerated in that book have come to pass. The democracies of the world remain strong in the face of a stream of unending threats against them, both internal and extern—
Hmmm.
Let’s take a moment and think about some of the most...
