Moffat certainly had a healthier concept of non-binary genders than, apparently, Davies has but keep in mind who his bosses are--the Tories who are in power and necessarily choose to wank with the BBC, making Davies look worse than he would otherwise but for Tory demands.
Maybe. Davies wasn't so hot on his first debut, in my view.
Moffat, on the other hand, was all that and several servings of chips.
And then we get some nonsense about how a “male presenting” entity can’t understand something because of external presentation. They took what could have been an amazing moment (non-binary, non-binary, and the DoctorDonna) and turned it into culture war "woke" nonsense.
This is where Doctor Who being “British” is getting annoying. So much British cultural propaganda seems to be embedded into the stories.
* There are people whose eyes, ears and hearts are open to ideas outside the worldviews of the society they inhabit (In my case, the Dominion of Canada, a British Colony, part of the Anglosphere)
* There are people performing "I am a good person" who have chosen what is often called "Woke"
* There are people performing "I am a good person" who have chosen anti-Woke.
There's more to be said about this interspecies relationships situation regarding Moffat, and that would be the marriage of a silurean and a human, and there was something there which wasn't an owner of a puppy.
It does speak to the rarity among the human species in the form of one person who isn't simply clever enough to understand an advanced alien partner but also being that much of a non-bigot...who is capable of dealing with members of her own species who, by and large, are bigots.

Another scripted remark is well worth noting, though--
"But you look so human!"
"Well, you look so timelord!"
@russellmcormond
Well, Missy's characterization is apt, and one of the consistencies throughout Classic Who and New Who is that The Doctor cares deeply for any intelligent species, even low-intelligence species. He cares very much.
Missy was a favorite of mine as well, but also the writer of her script. It's Moffat that the Beeb should have brought back. Now THERE was a WRITER.

I'm certainly not going to be able to at this hour. Guten nacht!

Oh I know, right?
And I totally screwed up the spelling of that German Christmas Carol. Kinderlein Kommet
@NWBison
I can't picture German getting mixed up with Spanish, tho, so I'll take your word on it. I didn't even attempt German syntax so all I can do is count and belt out a couple of beer songs. And one Christmas song that isn't O Tanenbaum.
Kinderline Commet....dang, I think my brain just died. I'll bet I'm turning into a pumpkin at this hour.
@NWBison
I'm not either but my first 2nd language is French, and whilst in Phoenix I picked up Spanish, so guess where the sounds of Portuguese fall.
When I hear Portuguese my brain will inadvertently shift gears to either French or Spanish without engaging the clutch.
@NWBison
lolz. When is that stodgy language gonna catch up to the 2023s? It's almost 2024!
@NWBison
Obrigado

I'll give it a shot although I'm not optimistic, generally, about instances not previously accepting new members. Thanks!

Hello--I'm gonna pick back up the conversation we had about not seeing hashtags involving Qoto again because none of the 9 o'clock Hashtag posts were being displayed here on Qoto so after that, I can now conclude that Qoto is faulty. I'm gonna have to go instance-shopping again, I'm afraid.
Sure! Here's a random fact: Did you know that honey never spoils? Archaeologists have even found pots of honey in ancient Egyptian tombs that are over 3,000 years old and still perfectly edible. It's due to its low moisture content and acidic pH, which inhibits the growth of bacteria and other organisms.
Activists protested outside of and specifically called out the New York Times for its complicity in publishing Israeli propaganda and obscuring the truth about what’s happening in #Gaza.
