Knew a pilot who's nickname was über. Last name? Guay.

A lot of the issues you mentioned get solved in season 2. I think there was a network shift and the camera work got better. Later on Amazon pumped a lot of money into the show as well. It's really worth the watch and I'd love to hear back from you if you do.

If you're a gamer there's a Telltale game that follows this account's namesake. Camina Drummer.

The writers did a fantastic job writing all the dialogue in the books. I would argue it's on par or even better than the show. Which is hard, considering the writers for the books produced and even wrote the screenplays for the show.

As someone who shares a line of work with Bobby Draper and many other characters, the military jargon and quips are also spot on. Never have I heard such accurate lingo and expression in sci-fi.

The Expanse may be the best bit of sci-fi I have ever had the joy to watch and read.

Reading this felt like the computer version of whatever the SAW movies are.

Torture porn? It's so repugnant but I want more.

To be fair the body thing was the first branch Davidians that broke ties with the seven day Adventist Church. By the time David Koresh took power the splinter religion would see two more leadership changes.

It's weird but the Branch Davidians /=/ David Koresh's Branch Davidians.

It's explained in the first 5ish minutes of this video.

Yeah that's why I'm curious. I read at about 350WPM so what I consider a fast read may be slow for some.

It also depends on the density of the text. I've been struggling through Imperialism by Lenin for like a month.

I'm just curious. How long would you consider a reasonably quick read expressed in hours?

Wished'I'd've

That they are. I just found them recently. They're certainly out of my usual wheelhouse but I've really been enjoying a lot of old folk and country. This kinda bridges the gap perfectly.

It means it gives off middle child vibes. What more do you want?

People round these parts say the day first, then the month. Anything else is attention seeking middle child vibes.

You may really enjoy Bridge City Sinners then!

They do mostly Bluegrass/Folk but they have this metal vibe to a lot of their stuff. Their vocalist is fantastic and the song I linked feels like I'd be in the middle of a Cowboy Saloon barfight.
