The book says he has rations with five times the minimum protein in them, and is using the potatoes to stretch the rations rather than attempting to live solely on potatoes and vitamins, and also handwaves that the hab canvas has radiation shielding built in.

Point.

Christ’s sweaty balls, how is this still a thing? STOP WATCHING THIS, OLD PEOPLE!

Same here, but if I remember right she’s cast in a pretty bad light in the novel and it definitely includes the poisoning the fruit while still on the tree thing, which is fiendishly brilliant.

Donald Trump?

STAAARRRSSS

ChuckRich needs more credit for blUber.

I love that!

My favourite poisoning in the Claudian era is the rumour (repeated by Graves in I, Claudius) that Livia poisoned Augustus by poisoning the fresh figs (which were the only thing he was eating due to paranoia about being poisoned) while they were still on the tree.

Are you sure whale uber isn’t called jOnAh, in a really irksome typeface?

He can survive despite the bitter cold and lack of oxygen in the Martian atmosphere due to being a puppet.

I love you, Curiosity rover, you awesome little six wheeled robot guy you. Doggedly roving about, doing science, so very far from home.

Hey now. Hey. This article is entirely unfair to Fiorina. It should read “isn’t just a female candidate who doesn’t believe in allowing women to control their bodies and a not-very-good yet massively-paid corporate executive who eventually got kicked out by the board, she is also a straight-up shitty person.”

Nextwave: would like to remind the audience that dragging insane, corrupt police officers who change into giant killer robots into an alleyway and shooting them a lot is very bad and not the Marvel way. And also still illegal in most states.

Yes yes yes yesyesyesyesyesssssssss!

We’ve got all sorts of toilet paper (which we call “toilet paper”, mainly, but also occasionally “bog roll” or “loo roll”). We’ve got two-ply, three-ply, we’ve got quilted, we’ve got those moist wipe things, it’s all pretty civilised. It’s not a howling wasteland where you have to wipe your arse on leaves.
