I agree that Bobbie was cast well, but I know others disagree. There was never going to be someone as intimidating and muscular as she is described in the book. But, Frankie Adams does a good job and really improves as the series goes on.

I think fantasy has generally done better than sci-fi for book adaptations. Game of Thrones was incredible until it wasn't. And, I think The Witcher benefitted substantially by being live (the animated film spin-off just wasn't as good).

Fwiw, the casting for Avasarala and Amos is perfect (although Wes Chatham might seem an odd choice for Amos but he thrives in that role).

Booooo!!!! I think the show is aided so much by the acting (not just voices) of Thomas Jane, Wes Chatham, Shohreh Aghdashloo, David Strathairn, Jared Harris, and Cara Gee. If it was animated, it just wouldn't be the same.

It's so good. They obviously had to consolidate some characters. But, there are some excellent casting choices. And, the actors that start off unevenly improve as the series goes on. It's my all-time favorite sci-fi show.

We need more, but credit where due: both The Nation (June 2024 issue) and Boston Review have run a breakdown of the Project 2025 “Mandate for Leadership” document. Media Matters, too. Lots of good work going on digesting this.

He still got pulled over once because the cop didn't think the color of the cloth was good enough. For some reason, I don't think the Long Island police will stop this complete disaster of a vehicle with poles and flags sticking out in every direction.

For road safety, I remember my grandfather teaching me to tie a cloth on the end of a 2x4 if it extended even 2 inches past the end of the truckbed. We used to be civilized.

This is marvelous. Class action alleges Walmart systematically puts one price on the shelf, and charges a little more at the cash register. Walmart claims consumers can see the prices actually charged, so no harm. CA7 rejects.

Extremely frustrating to hear legal experts analyzing the SCOTUS ruling on immunity like just another case - it's an inherently normalizing act. People need to stop playing constitutional Calvinball and treat them like political actors.

Some of them are ALSO so far up Trump's network that we should read accordingly. NYT has now assigned Haberman to Biden stories. That's ... a confession.
