Open Minds (Mindjack #1)

When everyone reads minds, a secret is a dangerous thing to keep.

I conducted an interview with the creator of the "Okey Dokey" meme playing homage to KC Green's "This is Fine" viral sensation!

More sailed exoplanet explorer ideas.
Which one do you like more?

Silly idea:
Exoplanet explorer vehicle for windy planets.

Need to explore more of this, with improved sail designs.

Welp, so. I guess I'm here now and it's #introduction / #introductions time? I'm a #science writer, #journalist, #podcast host & video maker with a special fondness for weird/gross biology. I'm also a #DnD GM and a huge nerd for #books (especially #scifi) and #comics.

This week, I wrote about a type of lemur that picks its nose with an incredibly spindly finger that's so long it can reach up through its nasal cavity and touch its pharynx.

Nice to meet you, too!

Tributes to Metropolis (1927) within Bladerunner (1982) both movies giants of their era, revolutionizing cinema, esthetics, and story telling.

My new #podcast Before the Future Came isn't going to be about #StarTrek until the SAG-AFTRA strike ends, so we've pivoted to non-ST utopian #scifi, starting with Nnedi Okorafor's novella Binti: https://beforethefuture.space/podcast/s00e01-binti/

Binti is an amazing work. 🤩 We had a lot of fun digging into the themes (violence & empathy, magic in scifi, and ostracization) and geeking about genre-specific stuff we loved. 🐙

(The ep transcript is running a bit behind, but should be up within the next couple of days!)

S00E01. Binti

Content Warnings: blood and injury; frank discussions of racism and xenophobia. We're not yet a Star Trek podcast! Instead, we open with Binti, written by Nnedi Okorafor.

^{Before the Future Came}

Sokuba's experienced crew was fired by its new owner to be replaced by a cheaper one of dubious provenance. The only survivor related scenes of panic, hate and violence soon after departure. Many perished in there, while others jumped into the cold space.

My band and I have had the fortune of working with a local director and contirbuting music to his debut feature film, "The Artifice Girl".

The film is now Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, and I am very proud of what this film has become. I hope this is just the first of many for Franklin Rich.

I honestly highly recommend this film.
