I would like to think that I’m not the only one whose first, humorous thought was:

ALL THESE WORLDS ARE YOURS – EXCEPT EUROPA. 

ATTEMPT NO LANDINGS THERE.

Come to think of it more than a few years have passed since I red the Space Odyssey books. I do wonder though what we may find out there, even if it’s likely to be far less dangerous than 2061 or The Turing Test depicts. Instead I imagine we’ll just have a lot of scientists and scholars having a decade long think-orgy and that’s probably for the best.

Tonight’s season premieres

Fire Force s01e01 – Shinra Kusakabe Enlists

Is looking to be a very promising series this summer. The opening bit with the two girls and the lieutenant in the background was especially nice 😃.

At first glance it combines various concepts that make you wonder: is this a crap idea or a scathingly brilliant idea. I think I’m going to lean towards the last one 😜. The blend of action, comedy, and personality makes me think this shall entertain, much.

If It’s for My Daughter, I’d Even Default a Demon Lord – s01e01 – The Young Man and the Little Girl Meet

Looks to fill a small collection of genres that typically pop up every season. Perhaps even as an adorable slicity. At least, none of the usual eye rolls and worrisome bits rather than a wholesome start off.

Dinner

You can bet that more than a few tatters found their way down the treat hole of some hungry doggos.

You know, if I knew half as much as these three did about comfort….

I’m pretty sure that I’d be non human.

Odd problems:

When your microwave’s defrost works by ounces and the numbers in your head sum by the gram. Followed by converting guesstimates of these using your fingers.

Why the B-1 Bomber Is Such a Badass Plane

Growing up, I always found the B-1 a curiosity more than anything else. Here we this large, variable sweep wing bomber. It was and still is rather unique. Meanwhile most folks were mesmerised by the more modern Stealth designs.

Years later, I find it even more curious that people still talk about the Lancer, and that we’ve somehow managed to keep any in service since the cold war era drew to a close.
