It’s happening! The story directly after the show and in between the 20+ year gap to the next book is now being told in the new comic book series. The Expanse: Dragon Tooth furthers the story of where we last left off. I’m planning to get the whole volume after all the issues release.

Also, if you haven’t checked into it yet, The Expanse video game from Telltale is a prequel with Cara Gee returning to once again be the voice of Camina Drummer!

If you haven’t seen it yet, check out the movie Coherence (2013)! It’s one of my favorite sci-fi movies. The actors were taken aside and given certain direction but were never given a full script, so every time you see them arguing or trying to figure out what’s happening or surprised by something, it’s all genuine.

Here’s the synopsis but don’t read anything else about it before you watch: [Synopsis: Strange things begin to happen when a group of friends gather for a dinner party on an evening when a comet is passing overhead.]

It’s free if you already have Amazon Prime. A fantastic sci-fi puzzle to solve (similar to Primer in that way but very much its own thing).

The article does say “and possible jail time” but from the ending paragraphs it sounds like the other tourists that carved their initials years ago just got a similar fine and a mark on their records.

It does seem low and I wonder if it scales at all or is a standard fine? At that rate, Jeff Bezos could go carve an entire autobiography into the place for an amount of money he wouldn’t even notice losing.

Shout out to Emma Stone’s character in The Croods for mirroring this before it was even acknowledged.

This may be their first internal development but they are a fantastic game publisher already! They take a lot of chances publishing weirder stuff and it pays off a lot of the time. My favorites are:

• Outer Wilds
• Journey
• Stray
• What Remains of Edith Finch
• Donut County
• Gone Home
• Kentucky Route Zero

I kind of look at them as the A24 of games (nevermind that Annapurna Pictures is a thing) where they have excellent taste in choosing what odd features to publish and give a chance despite not creating them themselves. It at least suggests they care about the artistry of the product to a point where I’m expecting that same standard in their first hands-on development.

You might as well jump in! It’s free, saves transfer from chapter to chapter, and it gives you plenty of time to figure out if you’re happy with the route you’re playing or if you want to turn up the good or evil for a different end game.

Yeah I totally get that. I’m sure there is also a small percentage of people that see the name and check out the community looking for aliens with three boobs or three dicks or dudes getting it on with living planets and find something very different.

Just reading this has my fear of the incomprehensible unknown tingling.

I admittedly have not read a lot of Asimov but The Last Question is one of the few stories I’ve read in full (it helps that it’s a short story) and I absolutely loved it!
