There’s meme potential here.

I CAN'T be the only the only one that thinks Andy's Dinosaur Adventures was inspired by Doctor Who, right? I mean, it's about someone who travels through time via a seemingly normal object (in Andy's case, a clock), and solves problems with it.

SOUND FAMILIAR?

Weird connection I made between Good Omens and Numberjacks

Okay, we have a MAJOR heatwave going on in Melbourne right now (I live in Australia BTW in case you didn't know) and I didn't get a lot of sleep last night, buutt I suddenly thought of this for reasons my brain won't tell me. Why do their outfits in this picture:

make them BOTH look like HIM?!

Is the heat getting to me, or do you guys see it too?

But don't forget, in the story, the Ugly Duckling became a beautiful swan! 💖

I keep thinking about the not-things (and the midnight entity, the scherzo creature, the solitract, etc.), and how they all, in their own ways, specialize in mimicking people. Copying voices and faces and thoughts and mannerisms is ubiquitous for creatures that live in the fringes of spacetime. Which makes sense; how else is a kinless creature from an empty place supposed to learn and evolve if not by latching on and copying the first tangible thing they encounter? What's a better way to escape into that wider universe than looking like the people there, encouraging them to bring you back to their world? Integrating into our universe is functionally their equivalent to leaving the nest and learning how to fly, whether that be malicious or harmless, conscious or instinctual. So, on that note: Consider the Doctor, another being found on the fringes of the universe. Consider how they imprint on people after regeneration ("like a chick hatching from an egg", to quote a deleted line from the Christmas Invasion). The way one time lord in the audios regenerates into a bird after spending years on a bird planet, and the Doctor, after spending so much time on earth, has been described as half human. Consider the way the child Tecteun found just happened to look Gallifreyan, the way this is directly paralleled with the Qurunx, a creature that takes on a form that "we instinctively want to protect, as a defence". Consider this:

The Time Lords view regeneration as a conduit for immortality, but what if the actual purpose, the naturally evolved trait that would matter to a lonely creature from outside the universe, is mimicry?

Hello, puffins! Snugglepuff here! Check out what I got from the shops today! It's a stethoscope! And it actually works, too! I love all things doctor-related (which probably explains my obsession with Doctor Who), so I'm super excited to mess around with this thing lots more tomorrow!
