Even after Paradox was retrofitted from a completely standalone story...

i liked cloverfield and cloverfield lane.  paradox was a clusterfuck. 

It’s abundantly clear that Abrams has no fucking clue how worldbuilding works or even what it is. 

But it is Amazing! Havent you seen the sheer quantity of Batmen in it????

Goddamned Deanna Troi crashed the enterprise D the first time she takes command of the bridge creating an enormous logistical ballache for the retrieval committee. 

It’s hard for me to feel that bad for this guy. You were knowingly making money off of piracy from a company known to be extremely litigious. The punishment is severe because it’s meant to be a deterrent. I’m not a law expert; I don’t know if this level of punishment is typical. But I don’t have a lot of sympathy for…

The article cites artists who’ve found themselves pushed out of work by AI, and since our ability to eat and have a roof over our heads is (unfortunately) tied to said work, this means AI has directly endagered their ability to survive.

“There is literally nothing ethically dubious about artificial intelligence.”

So you’re one of the three people who liked that.

Hooooly crap. My heart was racing that entire episode. Incredibly tense.

Can we talk about how everyone in the TNG legacy cast is just knocking it out of the park? Burton, Spiner,Frakes, McFadden, Dorn and Stewart are all fantastic in this series. It’s remarkable these actors have been able to slip right back into their old characters so seamlessly and they are all great. All these actors…

Learning more about Vadic’s motivations was great - makes it a lot more personal than a general ‘the Federation defeated us and they suck.’ Plus, I really enjoyed seeing Amanda Plummer chewing the scenery with the main cast; her last speech while taking the Titan was my fave.

It’s why twitter *had* verified marks. Now scammers buy bluechecks.

“Razer Gold was only ever bought by scam victims, sadly.”

...so its going to be good? Nice.

Ao the wheel of time is my favorite book series of all time. But honestly. I don't totally disagree and a lot of other fans I know agree. Jordan was too close. Had written too much, there was simply no way to finish it. Sanderson is a monster at endings. After system building, of course. While I read most of his books…

Gonna be hilarious when GRRM’s estate, looking to keep the payday rolling, ends up contracting Sanderson to deliver an ending to ASOIAF.

Um akshually, the Reckoners series isn't part of the Cosmere. It's its own thing.

I’m no Brandon Sanderson fan (in fact, I just learned today that he existed) and i’m also no fan of WIRED’s Jason Kehe (in fact, I just learned today that he also existed), so i’m not coming into this with any dog in this fight, but just judging from what was written his feels like a hit piece written by someone with…

I think the best comparison is to Stephen King: both are prolific writers who put out good quality work that is mainstream in their genre to a dedicated fanbase.
