Sorry, I didn't realize I was needed to indicate my sarcasm. It is always about power and control when comes down to it, though you could see the sunk cost in this situation as being the power of the church. Honestly, I do believe this comic may be specifically using hats as a symbol for the power of the church at that time.

Of course! I hope you find a way to enjoy Who. It is a lovely universe. The other idea would be to look into Big Finish audio---they do a lot of interesting Who stuff.

If you like the lore but watching it makes you want to stab your eyes out, look into the Target novelisations. They are mostly faithful to what was on the TV, and you get to use your imagination instead of BBC's production values. They were usually written by the same person who wrote the script. I actually prefer the novels for several stories and was really, really disappointed when I finally had a chance to see them. A big bonus is the Target books are pretty cheap and easy to find used.

Ah, the sunk cost fallacy... of course that's why we can't have anything nice.

It's definitely something that you have to grow up with. I was lucky to have an uncle who was obsessed with The Fourth Doctor when I was a child, and my love of the show comes from that. I wish some of the older stuff could be redone: it's unwatchable for many because it was made for an audience who had tiny black and white TVs and a great deal more patience.

Thank you for sharing. I always really appreciate learning more about your life, because it has been so different from mine. Thank you also for your contributions to lemmy in general.

Yep. We should definitely expand to "I am making this" as well.

"Theresa's Sound World" by Sonic Youth is the first to come to mind. The whole of Daydream Nation could probably count, honestly.

"Everything in its Right Place" by Radiohead (edit: idiot autocorrect) is another one I've often taken an audio bath in. Much of that album works too. I just hate the final song.

This is not a strictly ADHD thing. Many, many people have difficulty focusing when reading. It is just harder with ADHD to monitor and refocus.
