Another thing I thought of, that I might be reading too much into: the Time Variance Authority. I'm not a native English-speaker, but to me the word Authority implies some form of lawfulness or legality, of power given instead of taken. You're doing a thing because someone authorized you to do it, not just because you think it should be done.

So: whose authority? I guess the easy answer is "The Time Keepers", but I'm not particularly happy with that answer.

Generally, in my country at least, labelling themselves Authority implies that they are the organisation with the power to Authorize others to do things, In the real world that would be via the setting of bylaws and issuing of permits/licences. So the TVA would exercise authority in its own right, and appears to have its own enforcement teams for those who stray outside what they permit

Yeah I only know Kang from the Avengers Assemble cartoon and am enjoying not knowing too much about him. The Spoiler tags are welcomed

In which case, in what sense are they both variant Lokis? Is there some constant factor throughout multiple timelines which says that, at some point, a modestly-superpowered mischievous being called Loki will appear, and some law of equivalence that makes them all, in some fashion, variants of each other rather than simply people with similar names and hobbies?

Perhaps it's a mantle of the Trickster God, be it worn by Coyote, Eris, Loki, or Bugs Bunny.

I feel like Tom Hiddleston is very much enjoying playing Doctor Who.

Just a few more hours and we get to see who rides in to the rescue at the proverbial last minute. I love the show, but I am so tired of decades of last-second rescues and last-second bomb disarmings. I think the next time I see a show have a bomb stopped with just a couple of seconds left, I will scream. lol
