Just read The Mercy of Gods by James SA Corey. Got it in paperback to match my Expanse series, so I waited. Book #2 is gonna be from the library because I'm going to buy it but not waiting for the paperback release to read it! SO good! And I learned a new word: moiety! I have so many questions! ahhh

I love that Alien Earth opens with a familiar setting and situation, dives into what you'd expect and fear to happen, and then takes a massive right turn and says NOPE, this is our story instead. And then follows through by continuing to provide a compelling story. Brilliant work!

Just reread the Alphabet Squadron trilogy again, by @alexandermfreed.bsky.social.
I love Chass both in her B-wing fueled by music and being furiously destructive, as well as her journey towards loving herself.
Also, Quell's conclusion with Keize is incredibly relevant to our current situation

What is common knowledge in your field but shocks outsiders?
Commercial airliners aren't "airtight". They leak constantly, but air is pumped in faster though the engines than it leaves, keeping the desired pressure in the cabin.

How badly (and how quick the bad is) for both sides a no-holds-barred slugging match between the U.S. and the PRC goes, even conventional only.m. And that the fight really is existential for both sides.

I just rewatched the show, and I have more thoughts, but there's another main point: the returning characters mostly don't feel like themselves

So far, the Ahsoka show hasn't been to my liking overall. After reflecting on this, I've settled on a primary reason, aside from plot points I've just not grown accustomed to yet (like Sabine and Ahsoka having beef) 1/

Andor had a story to tell, and told it within Star Wars. It would have been a fantastic story regardless of its setting, and so I am grateful it is placed inside of this mythos framework I care so much about.
These are some of the things that caught my eye especially.

It wasn't even a strong one, but I appreciated the rebuke that #ThePunisher had against cops with his symbol in the #Daredevil finale last night. I continue to enjoy that character and Jon Bernthal's portrayal, even though way too many people completely miss the point that the character makes

Buzz buzz! A swarm of Vespid Stingwings have decided (or the Tau decided for them) their next objective!
A Strain Leader is at the head of the charge, with three warriors close behind.

I've enjoyed listening to Wes and Ty talk about storytelling in "Ty and That Guy", and #TheExpanse Dragon Tooth was a great set of comics, so I'm pretty excited to see what story Wes wants to tell in A Little Death!

Currently in the "aero" part of aerospace engineering, but technical achievements like this are why I'm studying control theory, and is what actually gets me excited. Building our space infrastructure, and unmanned space exploration is SO COOL!! It's a life goal of mine to contribute to it someday

I painted the #Nemesis #boardgame
It's a great game with tons of replayability!
I painted each character in a scheme that aligns with their assigned colored ring.
Also shown is a sampling (there are many more models in the box I painted) of the alien Intruders!
Also shown are the card trays!

It shouldn't need to be said, but if you're a Nazi, or a Nazi apologist (just another way to pronounce "being a Nazi") you are not welcome in any space I exist in. Discord servers, FLGS, the USA, the world, or the universe. Fuck off, and leave no trace you were ever here. We'll be better off.
One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.

What's this? More Dark Angels, Squad IX - The Keepers of the Locked Tomb?
3rd edition changes to AoD - I mean, Dark Angels leadership has directed more fighters into the fray!
Starting off with Captain Alecto!

The first 40k minis I painted, from the intro box. Someday I might go about rebasing one or both of these to use the plating I have on my other minis. Or I may leave them as a reminder of my first step into the grimdark future where there is only war

If The Locked Tomb is ever done live action, I think after her acting in yesterday's episode, Maddie Phillips would be a great Ianthe Tridentarius
