No, you can’t deny women their basic rights and pretend it’s about your ‘religious freedom.’ If you don’t like birth control, don’t use it. Religious freedom doesn’t mean you can force others to live by your own beliefs.

God, there needs to be a handy Snopes link for this quote.
He didn’t say this. A random forum poster did. Google it.

We at the Doctor Who Tumblr would like to say that we have full faith in Matt as a torch bearer.

Good as Gold
An Olympic minisode written by young Whovians!
New Doctor who Script to Screen short, Good as Gold.
This is actually enormously well-written. The “Adventure Setting” (and the idea that you can increase an decrease the level of adventurousness) is inspired, and the weeping angel fake-out? After scoffing at the idea of the doctor solving the problem with a sonic-screw-driver, I got knocked right back on my bottom when it turned out that he’d solved nothing at all. These kids are genre-savvy as all get-out. Go Ashdene School!

That moment, not profound, not even deep
When words and thoughts, all useless, fall away
When all around you innocents still sleep
And night can’t quick enough concede to day
The burning poison just above your throat
That threatens to break in upon your brains
That piercing, shrill, disintegrating note
That keeps and keeps, and still insistence gains
Your eyes spring wide, pay no heed to the dark
Your nostrils starve for oxygen not gone
Your feet and fingers on their own embark
In search of ways to make the night less long
Your only urge - to scream, one sound, one word
What do you fear - to be or not be heard?

The female experience is different from that of the male, and if, as a male writer, you cannot accept that basic premise, then you will never, ever, be able to write women well. A man walking alone through Midtown Manhattan at three in the morning may have concerns for his safety, but I promise you, it’s a very different experience for a woman taking the same walk, and it’s different again for a man wearing a dress. Think about it. That’s a societal factor, and it’s a gendered one, and this is not and can not be subject to debate. If you’re looking to argue that sexism is a thing of the past, that the world is gender-blind, you’re not only wrong, you’re lying to yourself.
An ignorant writer is a poor liar, and a poor liar makes for a bad crafter of fiction.
