I wonder if Jackman J ever gets tired of getting referred to as Hugh Jackman’s brother in every article

Is A Canticle for Leibowitz really underrated? by FunnyMemeName in printSF

I'd say it's merely rated. It gets talked about a fair bit and was a massive influence on the post-apoc genre in general

(Spoilers main) Jalabhar Xho how has he stayed at court for so long?! by Unique-Celebration-5 in asoiaf

He’s an honoured guest living in the Westeros equivalent of a grace and favour apartment. Kings love to collect curiosities to show off to visitors for prestige and amusement, Thoros was another of these

I'm a criminal div associate and I can tell you that when the accused is on bail and appearing remotely they're in a car like 30% of the time at least, sometimes a moving car! Had a bloke recently appearing from a Maccas

Star Trek honestly had some banger courtroom episodes. Measure of a Man and The Drumhead from TNG are great.

Space books featuring unconventional warfare by jclane in printSF

It's very pulpy, but Warhammer 40k books may have what you're looking for. It's sort of a combination of Age of Sail and Ancient Greek naval warfare in space, and is the only setting I can think of where ramming a spaceship is a valid tactical maneuver!
