shadowkat1. Apparently I'm not the only one who didn't enjoy this week's Who all that much and had issues with it.
I didn't hate it. But, I'm admittedly not quite as fannish about the series as others. But I did think it was rather clumsily written.
Hmmm, while hunting down the listing of this season's Doctor Who episodes (hard to do when you have no clue which season this is supposed to be), I stumbled upon an announcement of the NEW DOCTOR or rather who will be replacing Capadali and when it will happen.[ETA: Fake announcement. Just found out it was fake. So never mind.]
Looked up Peter Harness, who co-wrote Pyramid at the End of the World, and yep I don't like his writing. He'd also wrote the Zygon invasion episodes, which I also had issues with. In fact, I think I gave up on Doctor Who during that season in part because of those episodes.
2. Dinner was lovely with U last night. She's very wise. She refuses to discuss or talk about politics at all. With anyone. I'd bring it up. She'd say nothing. Or change the subject. (U voted for Clinton.) Avoids it completely in every way.
3. My crazy church friends on FB are still throwing cats at me. The latest is a poor cat who is depressed after just losing her owner of ten or twelve years. This is getting ridiculous. Although it is rather amusing. My friends on Dreamwidth are trying to talk me out of it, while my friends on FB are trying to guilt me into adopting a cat right this very second. Who knew adopting a cat was such a controversial subject? I blame all those cat videos.

Date: 2017-05-29 05:22 pm (UTC)I'm allergic to dust and mold. And had allergies as a child, but it was never directly related to the cats.
Now, I've no clue. I haven't been around cats since my 20s. I'm 50 now.
And yes, I agree that's an insurmountable one...because meds aren't always doable. Although I know a lot of people who handwave that and get cats anyhow.
[When I was 21, my parents gave my cat away because it was determined that my father was suddenly allergic to cats. He had developed an inner ear imbalance as a result. So...there went my cat. I was in college at the time so had no say in the matter. I was upset. She was my cat, in that she slept with me and hung out with me whenever I was home.]

That's my current game plan. Spend some time in a shelter with the kitties.
