Happy Thanksgiving to all who are celebrating, and here's hoping you have what
to be thankful for even if you aren't. I'm feeling gratitude myself, and that
you are reading these words is part of the reason. We have a pretty low-key
gathering planned at the BlueTower, and I've completed my chores well in advance
of the festivities, so my plans for the rest of the day involve eating,
drinking, and watching tackle football, all causes to be thankful as well.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours too, Blue, and all the rest of the denizens that hang out in this corner of the interwebs. With three NFL games on today, it's time for another round of Limbo with my picks.

Happy TG to Blues and the Bluesers!
If Russia stops fighting, the war ends. If Ukraine stops fighting, Ukraine ends. Slava Ukraini!
Happy Thanksgiving, guys and gals!
Happy American Thanksgiving! Enjoy your turkey and guns!
Well... so much for that "It's a short week, away game, Carolina can't go 16-0, and Dallas really needs the win" Dallas pick.

The Expanse looks interesting.

seems like the highest budget yet... had some zero-grav scenes, also some "fully nude" scenes
you can tell they are serious about it
Happy Thanksgiving all.
That chemical plant explosion video is crazy. Made me think of Just Cause 3.

Is it just me, or does China and Japan have a hard time managing emergencies? I mean....supposed the most intelligent portions of the world, and they fail time after time dealing with human life and emergencies. Putting water (and it looked like a slurry) on a highly volatile chemical is instant no no. I am sure hundreds died - that was BAD!

China yes, Japan no. China has no real infrastructure. Couple that with the rampant corruption and bureaucracy and it's a major clusterfuck.

i hope it's better than that. stargate was mildly entertaining at best. if there's a scifi series it should aspire to, it should try to be babylon 5.
Happy Thanksgiving (somewhat belatedly), Blue and everyone! Have way too many leftovers to last me a few days.

Yeah, that was cool. Nice world building: BSG grittiness meets Firefly multiculturality. And a nice story hook to keep you coming back. Definitely want to be watching more of that.

I just finished reading the fifth book the series is based on. One of the best space operas I've read in the last decade. Great, great series. Highly recommended for you SciFi bookworms out there....
Hey, what's Putin having for Christmas?
Turkey..Ha!..(Too soon?)
I have a nifty blue line!
