Once, Upon Time

 


The cliffhanger from the previous episode was good but the answer came as a bit of a cop-out. Nothing new there. But it does set up the episode well, going through the time stream of Dan, Vinda and Yaz. Good back stories. 

The Doctor is trying to save her friends by forcing them through their past, making them relive unhappy moments that brought them all together. The decisions and the choices made that brought them into contact with the doctor in the first place. 


The episode starts off with a new character with a great twist at the end. This is Bel, with a ton of internal dialogue. We learn that she is talking to someone and has a small machine that offers smiley faces and flying hearts. 


Swarm is in this episode as well. And I still love his character. Who is the actor? Oh, Sam Spruell. Okay. 

We also learn that Swarm the skeletal alien was being held by a secretive Time Lord force known as the Division, which previously wiped the Doctor’s memory to hide her past as the Timeless Child. Chibnell fucked us who fans by changing The Doctor from a time lord to an unknown alien. Her/His DNA allowed the time lords to regenerate. That story totally screwed the original years from Hartnell to Jodie. 


The other Doctor that we met previously, 
Jo Martin. She is a past reincarnation of The Doctor, that the Doctor doesn't remember. She asks The Doctor some pointed questions that help her in the task ahead.  

In her past timeline, The Doctor is trying also to find out who she is and get back her wiped memories that The Division took from her. But she is kicked out. 

In the TARDIS, the Weeping Angels return. They are trying to disrupt timelines and mostly succeeding. 

Until: 


The Angels have the TARDIS!!!!!!!

What's in a name?

 I had no idea that each full moon had a name.  Tonight is the November full moon AKA Beaver moon. I will be hanging my jewelry (dangling from the windowsill) to recharge them. I do this monthly. I did miss last month as it was rainy. No moon power.  Here are the names for those interested.  I've heard a few of them before: Traditional Full Moon Names Wolf Moon – January Snow Moon – February Worm Moon – March Pink Moon – April Flower Moon – May Strawberry Moon – June Buck Moon – July Sturgeon Moon – August Harvest Moon – September or October Full Corn Moon (Harvest) – September Hunter's Moon (Harvest) – October Beaver Moon – November Cold Moon – December A week back, I took a photo showing a ring around the moon. It is meant to be good luck to see that (according to Japan) and for my birthday next month, I7m allowed to get a new MacBook Pro 13 inch! It works! I'll repost that image here for those who didn't see it in the original post.  I took this photo with Go...

Writing Software

They say writers need them or should use them. I've been using various forms of writing software since 2007. Before that I used MS Word. Wrote three novels and sold 50 short stories with just the word processor.  Times change. Now I use Scrivener and pretty much nothing else. Tho, I am old version. My old MacAir can't handle more then 2 GB memory. Can't upgrade. Stingy Apple. I still use it for writing. But, I am growing tired of old version of Scrivener and I have been looking around for other stuff.  (Image: Pexels.com Free stock images) I'll post my fav, a little later. First let's look at some software.  Technology changes at a fast pace--or is the updates at a fast pace? Either way, I've found some cool new ways to write, especially on the go.  The software I'll list is stuff I have used or purchased. No links. Sorry. If interested just highlight the software and right click search for... Works a charm. I could be like those Internet blogs that have aff...
