    Origin is starting on Youtube. Don't think I'll watch it. In the trailer, they did a big zoom out from a window in a spaceship with rotational-gravity rings and the passenger in the window was standing on the ceiling. CGI artists working on shit like that should have at the very least a minimal understanding of how that kind of thing works. Or their supervisor, or whoever's doing the fucking story boards. Some-fucking-body working on the sci-fi program should have a fucking idea how rotational gravity works. Jeez people. Ask a sci-fi writer FFS. They're a dime a dozen and most of them are hungry for consulting fees.
    The Rules
    Copper- behave toward others to elicit treatment you would like (the manipulative rule)
    Gold- treat others how you would like them to treat you (the self regard rule)
    Platinum - treat others the way they would like to be treated (the PC rule)

    My exact thoughts about every show about politics (House of Cards in particular).

    It's like a solicitor friend of mine who can't stand watching any lawyery type of show. You get a criminal lawyer in a show who provides expert opinion on corporate law, because, y'know, he's a lawyer, so is well read in all disciplines of law.

And now we have to use it.

    And that's Why I'm Voting Leave.

    Political fiction needs sci-fi writers?

    They should at least get some poli sci grad student to tell them if the plot makes any sense.

    Also, Daredevil canceled.
