The Oscar nominee has become a favorite performer in some of TV's best-loved sci-fi and fantasy series.

Remember the what, now?

The PDCs have counter-thrusters when they're firing
Just noticing this for the first time. When the PDCs fire, there is a counter-thruster to keep the recoil from affecting the ship's attitude / maneuverability. I love little attentions to detail like that.
Bobbie bee-lining to the cucumber sandwiches (and basically eating the whole tray) is a nice touch.

Cucumbers are a pretty wasteful vegetable. They require a lot of water to grow and aren't very nutritious. Since Mars has to be very efficient with their agricultural output, cucumbers would be a rare treat.
Expanse Fans Helped Keep Shohreh Aghdashloo Booked and Busy With Wheel of Time
The Oscar nominee has become a favorite performer in some of TV's best-loved sci-fi and fantasy series.
Speaking to Collider, Aghdashloo credits Expanse fans with sparking her interest in joining Wheel of Time, now in its third season on Prime Video. “As soon as I was done with The Expanse, the fans of The Expanse and those who liked my work on The Expanse, they started saying, ‘We need to find her another TV series because we want to see her at work,'” she recalled with delight.

He sucks. Watching Season 2 right now for the first time. Great acting though.

Crosspost - Finally Finished Horizontal & Vertical MCRN Logos
Now to figure out if I'm going to get a long sleeve T-shirt with the vertical version down the left side, sweat pants with it down the front of the leg or the horizontal version across the chest of a T-shirt. The vertical was the tough one to make with so much sizing and spacing to be adjusted manually.
I learned a bunch of tricks in Irfanview along the way.

Hi everyone. I was the guy that deduced and popularized what has recently become known as the “Roman master plan theory” on this subreddit, a theory that Ty and Daniel recently confirmed is correct. In the Alt-Shift X podcast where they confirmed it, they said that they felt they weren’t being subtle, and yet a ton of people seem to have completely missed this central part of the plot of Leviathan Falls. I think a major part of why I understood what the authors were going for is because I understood The Dreamer chapters in the book, and therefore understood the alien biology that they were trying to explain. A biology that is so alien that I think it actually challenges a lot of what we consider as “life” in the first place.
So, I thought that I would make a thorough post on the evolution and history of the Gatebuilders, so that other fans can understand their nature and the overall alien plot line of the Expanse. My background is

Who would you cast for Aliana Tanaka? Teresa Duarte?
I know The Expanse has almost exclusively cast relatively unknown actors but who would you cast for large characters we haven't seen in the show?
Edit: I'm all for casting (relatively) unknown actors, by the way. Just thought it would be fun speculating which better known names would fit some characters :)
Books vs Show
So I'm listening through the audiobooks, and am on book 5. Should I finish the series before watching the show?
