Okay Spanfeller, you herb, you win. You’ve wrecked this site beyond recognition. Do you recognize any names up there? How about Charlie Jane and Annalee, the founders of this damn site. This site is supposed to be about science fiction in all media, but the reporters are now so inept that they can’t report on the fucki…

Sigh. Okay, fine.

No, that would literally be the GT86. It’s even in the name.

Seriously? They couldn’t afford to pave it? (I think concrete could take the weight, not asphalt.)

“Triggered snowflakes” has been obvious self-projection for a few years now. These are people with the smallest of minds and the narrowest of views, who take grave offense of anything that offends their worldview at the drop of a hat. Years ago, one in a thousand would write an angry letter to the Times, but the…

Oh, God. She was the lead in Quantico. That show was bags of hammers dumb. In the end, everybody was a mole or a double agent. And they never graduated!
Richard Madden was very good in Bodyguard, though.

The old maxim used to be, “Television is a producer’s medium, film is a director’s medium, and the stage is an actor’s medium.” Notably the writer, who is integral to all three, gets the short end of the stick.

If you wanted an example of spin-off shows that weren’t masterpieces in any form, I think you should have lead with NICS. Oof!

Another interesting thing is that moving the SLS back to the VAB (and that’s the end of the three letter acronyms from me) is not a trivial exercise. They’re using those giant crawlers, the largest land vehicles ever made.

Next thing you know, DC is going to remove all color from their comics, and just sell black and white books. Because, you know, the expense.

Good grief! That Reva head sculpt is absolutely beautiful! Hot Toys really has no competition in the 1/6 figure space.

I dunno, I think James is forgetting that this is a comedy, so I love it when they lean into the gags. Trek takes itself far to seriously (I’m looking at you, Picard) and any attempt at yucks is a welcome change. The fact that they’re not just Rick and Morty jokes (or worse, Family Guy jokes) but actual riffs on old Tr…

Anyone but Tom Bloody Bombadil.

Riiight. I don’t think it works that way. But that show plays so fast and loose with science I’m not surprised. (They forget about lunar gravity and Mars gravity as soon as they’re indoors, for example.)

Fax machines make a lot of sense for Japan. Remember, they have three alphabets, one of which has over 3 thousand characters. It’s much easier to write something in Japanese than type it. So a quick, hand written note sent by fax is more efficient than an email.

Ah, so that explains this:

Yup and yup. There’s a really good YouTube video about it. The next generation spacesuits will use static discharge from carbon nanotubes to repel the dust. Dunno what they’re planning on doing about the habitats, vehicles, and other equipment.

I’m still trying to figure out why they felt the need to paint their M-16s white. To match their spacesuits?

Okay, but what do I do with my rather substantial Kindle library? (I use Bookbub to find books for $0.99 or $1.99.)

Hey! I had a Rocketbook! Loved the clunky thing until the rechargeable battery died. It’s a pity the company didn’t stick around to refine the design.
