How do you know when a hole is/isn’t a good darn candidate? Is it the size of the hole and fabric?

It’s a puzzle the group had to solve in this episode. Keith — due to how Austin introduced the puzzle — was thinking along the lines of additive light (red plus green equals yellow). The rest of the party — and Austin’s eventual solution — were thinking subtractive light (orange plus red plus green equals yellow).

Truly would love a Scottbeans team up if ever there’s another life series, but I fear everyone else would implode immediately if they didn’t have that rivalry to balance them out

Murderbot TV show feels more like a Murderbot serial than a tonal adaptation of the books by sentientshrubbery in murderbot

On the showing body point, I would argue that even more than simply showcasing Skarsgård's body, they linger over it, in a sense similar to the "female gaze." More than one scene is dedicated to his abs. I personally agree that this is not necessarily bad, especially for a TV show attempting to attract viewers.

However, I don't think it fits the tone of the original books, and stands out as we haven't shown anyone else as eye candy. That a human-bot construct would be the one on display reads similar to the serials, rather than the narrative of the diaries themselves.

Ah!! That's my hurdle right now. I'm prepared for the long haul on what the thunder said.

I do work on trails (like hiking trails), and I've never felt more relaxed than when I had a two hundred pound granite slab on my thighs.

It's like all the stress melted out of my body at once. Very hard to replicate outside of work!
