at which point Waring’s girlfriend yelled to Aponte that there was a gun in the truck, in an effort to scare Aponte away.

I agree, small issue....right to Nazi Germany

“very reminiscent of Nazi Germany,”Give me a break. This kind of rhetoric is what is actually dividing this country. I seriously doubt the person who said that was anywhere near Nazi Germany during WWII.

It looks like a transformer, mid transformation.

What Now?

“We wish him all the luck in Arrakis.”

While oxygen is much more reactive than nitrogen, please show me a tire that has signs of oxidation on the inside. Tires don’t oxidize, they degrade by UV.

This is why we are going to lose again in four years. Every time I click on Twitter I see liberals attacking other liberals who they see as not doing enough. While the republicans are coalescing around their new savior we are all fighting and tearing each other apart. 

Believe me, he has worked very, very long and extremely, very hard. You wouldn’t believe how tremendously hard he’s worked. He is a very talented speaker who, by the way, is a very hard worker. Extremely talented. Just the most talented.

Interesting theory...

I remember those Lumina-style belts. The best part about them IIRC is that they didn’t have to stay attached. You could buckle and unbuckle them like they were normal belts.

Straight sixes sound better. V6 can sound decent but most just sound like vacuum cleaners imo

Sounds like they might let Avasarala use the more colorful language she is known for in the books.

It should be called an Aventa now since the door is gone.

is it just me, or does it look like he’s already having some kinda of driver’s side front suspension failure...and continues to drive farther out of the jetty. From the beginning, forward progress seems very herky jerky.

“Our cellphones are a good example.”

No! No, they are not a good example. The electromagnetic radiation put out by cell phones is non-ionizing. In other words, it’s not strong enough to break molecular bonds. It does not cause cancer. It has a thermal effect (i.e., it warms you up a little), but it doesn’t have…
