Hey space nerds.

The expanse season 2 has started.

It is pretty good hard sci fi. The space battles have been pretty good.

That fight near the space station played out practically the same way as my fights in fractured space do, also it was loving awesome.

Secretly hoping they treat the Cibola Burn arc for The Expanse like HBO treated Books 4 and 5. Glossing over that poo poo in like 2 episodes and moving the gently caress on.

So I think I just accidentally trained my older dog to ask for help to get on the bed when he wants to lay down. He's got bad hips so he can't make the jump usually so I helped him 1 or 2 times. Now he comes in and asks for help and then runs into the room putting his front paws on the edge of the bed while wagging his stupid little stump of a tail at me.

Got him on glucosamine tablets or treats?

I give Frank the Smartbones brand treat chew rolls for hips and joints. He's only 3, but it's good to start early as he's pretty big. He gets one every other day with a bison rawhide the days in between. He also gets Zukes venison filets, beef jerky bites, and training treats (for the park, when he comes to his whistle tune).

Yeah I got him on that, I also put some oil poo poo on his food for his hips. He was doomed from the outset because his previous owner got him from a puppy mill, so he's tremendously inbred with massively hosed hips. He's loped around like a bear since day 1. Despite being a Habsburg genetically he's incredibly chill with an amazing temperament. He just scares the poo poo out of everyone anyway because people see Rottweiler and instinctively poo poo their pants. He turns 6 next month and he's basically an old man already when it comes to his hips.

Go down to a barracks parking lot (not your own unit, silly), pop a few hoods until you find a turbo, then

I tried this with an F-18 jet engine once. It just blew the hot dog off the bbq fork, which I had taped to mop handle

Oh hey Neil Blomkamp basically did XCOM: The Short Movie but you know using his characteristic ultra-violent action set pieces and being way more hosed up

It's starts of The Thing like but goes in a waaaay different direction.

I want more of that other alien invasion shirt film stuff that he did, damnit!

IIRC he's waiting to see how popular these short films are before working on Volume 2 of any of them. So expect to wait awhile :smith:

I think this is the second to last short film Neil Blomkamp is releasing for Volume 1 of his new thing, it also doesn't end on a massive blue balls like RAKKA and Firebase did which is nice
