Yup. It’s told from the xenomorphs POV. Buncha face-huggers hanging out... all of a sudden a ship lands and they start getting pushed and prodded.

“a group of young people on a distant world, who find themselves in a confrontation with the most terrifying life form in the universe.”

“Do you know who I am?”

Take it out of Police Pension funds. “Sorry, Officer Figpucker, but that guy you covered for a dozen times finally getting caught means no pension payout this year”, that’ll bring down that blue wall faster than you can say “Police Collusion”. ‘Cause that is the real problem, it isn’t just that individual “bad” cops…

Someone (wish I could remember who) wrote about an idea for making police carry malpractice insurance like doctors that would pay out if they are sued for on the job misconduct. If the officer has a bad record and the premiums become too high, time to find a new job.

It’s utterly beyond function on iPhone’s Safari app. On the rare occasions someone shares an article, I actually have had better luck getting it to load through Facebook’s internal browser (which should be very telling, given how shitty that is), but I’ve completely given up visiting the site on mobile otherwise.

It’s stunning how the user experience on this site gets worse and worse by the week. When I pull this page up on my phone, it reloads constantly (often in the middle of writing a comment, wiping out my progress), links to articles open external affiliates in new tabs instead of the article, videos play with sound…

My favorite acting moment of Connery is when he learns the guy meeting him at the airport isn’t from the agency, and he gets that smirk as he decides to have some fun with this situation and lead the guy on until they’re out of public.
