chocolatepotSome days it just really hits me how depressing the museum field is. If you don't get an internship in a wealthy institution that can afford to hire you after your internship, you are basically SOL. There are so few positions between unpaid intern and full-time curator/collections manager, it's staggering. I know I seem to "suddenly" think about this a lot, but while I do feel sorry for myself on an ongoing basis the actual scope of the curatorial-assistant bottleneck only really appears to me every so often.
Well, yesterday I bought fabric for a 20s dress and undies and I'm working harder on my presentation, so at least I can make that a smash and be like "I did this".
Can someone tell me, because I can never remember these things, but did they make Sansa and Tyrion more functional as a couple in the show? Because I seem to recall that she refused to kneel at all and basically froze him out originally. Not a criticism of anything, I'm just bad at telling when they make changes.
I actually really liked the finale. It just worked for me - plus, I think Clara's plotline is a pretty good refutation of the idea that Moffat's heroines are always special from the moment they meet the Doctor rather than being ordinary and becoming extraordinary, although I don't expect anyone who complains about that issue will see it that way.
That said, there's the usual "wait, what?" point where I have a hard time buying that these hundreds/millions of Claras through time have managed to save the Doctor's life a) without knowing that he's the Doctor and b) without him noticing. I guess it felt a bit like Moffat forgot exactly what the deal was supposed to be?
