  1. Frolicking through the Best Novella Hugo nominees—in Olivia Waite's "Murder by Memory," I find this:

    "Of course every human body was a horrifying collection of juices and tissues, acids and effluvia poured into a bag with a bunch of long rocks, a shambling accident of biology that made its own mysterious and often frustrating decisions without reference to the mind. They were disgusting miracles, every one.”

    Wow. Bravura writing… & bravura thinking.

  3. Pencil sketch of a blue city on a purple planet. This was drawn with coloured pencils on toned newsprint paper. A #fantasy or #scfi themed city of wonder.

    This was a drawing that sat unfinished for many months before I found it in a drawer and completed it. Still one of my faves.

  6. I love this #quote by Wally in #TheBoroughs (2026) #scfi series: "Whatever time I have left, I want to fill it with nothing but cocktails and chaos."

    Thanks! This is so great — and well designed. I’ve always wanted to navigate #scfi themes and connections like this.

    The only downside — no #ForbiddenPlanet (social media + god like power)

    Je vous propose 10 mn de lecture : une courte nouvelle de science-fiction, rédigée dans le cadre du jeu créatif #PanodysseySpark sur #Panodyssey . Il fallait créer un texte inspiré par la phrase "La voiture est triste d'avoir été oubliée". (si le lien ne s'ouvre pas sur smartphone, cela fonctionne bien sur PC)

  10. The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman was such a great series and if you rewatch the 6MDM it is a treasure trove of aviation. Shots of a B-1A, Edwards AFB, 3 bladed prop C-130's etc #bionic #6milliondollaman #avgeek #ScFi

    "It looks good at NASA One."
    "Roger. BCS Arm switch is on."
    "Okay, Victor."
    "Lining Rocket Arm switch is on."
    B-52 Pilot: "Here comes the throttle. Circuit breakers in."

    "We have separation."
    "Roger."
    "Inboard and outboards are on."
    "I'm coming forward with the sidestick"
    "Looks good."
    "Ah, Roger."
    "I've got a blow-out - damper three!"
    "Get your pitch to zero."
    "Pitch is out! I can't hold altitude!"
    "Correction, Alpha Hold is off, turn selectors — Emergency!"
    "Flight Com! I can't hold it! She's breaking up, she's break—"

  14. #WordWeavers August 13: "On a scale from 1 to 10, how safe is your world?"

    Arcaelit daily life is fantastically better than the best life that all the money and power of Earth could buy. And yet, it's the average for quintillions of TTMA signatories (the Arcaelits). Safety and comfort aren't Saki and Sinóle's conflict nor their virtues.

    A few thousand lightyears in any direction you'll encounter non-signatory worlds. Or, as the Arcaelits say, the Pre-Arcaelits. Mere knowledge of the Arcaelits' organizing force, TTMA, is known to cause spontaneous total revolution. Non-signatory worlds and worldlikes cower in silence as so-called rulers pretend to their subjects or cult members kept in ignorance.

    They say TTMA is material and immaterial, and lives as the will of pure information flow between the great Arcaelit masses. Where a few go, TTMA takes root: invisibly, impossibly, inevitably. Studying why invites it to take root in YOU.

  15. Blade Runner 2049 - (2017)

    It’s like stepping into this alternate dimension that feels as real as the world around you now.

    It plucks subtle notes about love, predjudice and purpose, while windmilling the stronger chords of humanity, greed and acceptance.

    The absolute best scifi-film ever made

  18. @yosunai Pffff ... das ist alles gar nix gegen den Mausbiber Gucky. Allein aus Prinzip schon. 😎

  19. #TheExpanse is a good show I think.

    However, I don't feel it's particularly original. It feels like Babylon 5 and Star Trek - perhaps more B5.

    There are plenty of cliche pieces of dialogue, like a know what retort someone is going to make before they say it.

    And the themes are generally seen-it-before.

    It's nothing new. But I'm enjoying it so far.

  21. A case for Mulder and Skully

    1998 and day 35 #MusicTrax4Life
    Year of the the Good Friday Peace agreement in Northern Ireland. Watched France win the world cup.

    The job was showing life at its most brutal

    X files also big on TV with Mulder and Skully

    'The truth is out there, but so are lies.'Dana Scully.

    Loved the Catatonia song too a Cardiff band note.
