“Who doesn’t talk to themselves now and again?” “Me!” “Checking Holden’s auto doc? That’s a serious breach of trust man....so what did it say?” Lol, for all the drama this show is always bang on with the humor. 

Now I’m trying to think if he shared any scenes with Kingsley in Sneakers.

It reminds me a lot of Game of Thrones. It’s the same appeal — a mysterious, superhuman force against a backdrop of realistic political maneuvering.

Speaking of accents, I love that Naomi’s is noticably thicker now that she’s hanging with her Belter pals. Code switch in space.

more like we could do it with out chemical rockets but there no need as aerobraking and gravity breaking is more than enough to slow down our pathetically slow space probes.

Don’t run into a room waving your dick around. Thanks Miller!

I loved Ashford’s line : I was specifically promised by Anderson Dawes that I could be the cynic on this ship.

I really like how Naomi noticeably sounds more like a Belter now that she’s been spending time among her people. That’s such a believable detail.

Naomi: “You wear it well”

In the 6th book there is a Martian ship called the Mark Watney. I thought that was pretty clever.

One crazy thing to note, I’ve heard from many missionaries to Africa and Asia is that one of the biggest problems being faced is that the prosperity gospel has infected the church over there. So that one conversation on the Thomas Prince was very poignant for me.

This is totally what I found to be the unique hook of the show.

I think that’s actually the “Belter Bird” so to speak. She’s flipping someone off.

Yeah I hope Ashford isn’t playing a con.

“Doors and corners, corners and doors.”

I’m warming up to Strathairn. At first I thought his accent was weird (weirder than normal belt-speak) and I thought he looked too gaunt to be an ass kicker. My first reaction was “jeez, he’s really scrawny.” Not that David Strathairn is a big strapping actor, but he’s thinner than average. Well it dawned on me that…

There are no breaks in space - nothing to drag or create friction. So you push towards your target, then turn around and push back against your target until you slow down enough. They call it ‘flip and burn’ and usually you flip at about the halfway point.

While I enjoy and admire The Expanse’s ongoing interest in the politics of a solar system divided into three main factions, I’d be lying if I didn’t admit that what I’m really here for is the weird shit. And there is some absolutely marvelous weird shit here.
