Rincewindnz,

That’s a lot of rape… Humans have such a fascination with some types of “moral problems” yet seem to care nothing for others.

Rincewindnz,

Interesting, the story feels finished to a certain degree. I’ll go looking for this third space movie.

Rincewindnz,

I had a peek at season 5, new captain and no ivanova. The new captain has some of the Ivanova attributes from what I can see in the first episode.

First impressions I don’t think it’s a huge loss, I found ivanova the least engaging of everyone, Marcus was an interesting foil for her as he was so engaging.

Rincewindnz,

And not even missed the kids once?

Rincewindnz,

Trying to get back into the whole work thing this week. Still recovering from a bug so just doing wee bits at a time then heading home exhausted.

On the upshot, I worked really hard before Christmas to set this year up well and it has paid dividends, still very little to do yet as I had preloaded everything last year!

Really wanting to prioritise family this year and not continuing to be a consumer whore. Which might mean a paycut, but while the kids are still young I think it’s worth it.

Rincewindnz,

Bubble burst.

Rincewindnz,

About 15 episodes into season 3, holy crap it just keeps getting better. They manage to do the “war” thing sooo much better than ds9 did the dominion war.

Also Walter Koenig is fantastic. Just watching Ship of Tears.

Rincewindnz,

To be fair, I’ve wanted to like the show for decades. I love DS9 as a binge watch and recently flipped between a rewatch and giving B5 another crack. I think I would often get to episode 7 in season 1 and lose interest. It hooked me this time. The jump from pilot to episode 1 was a little jarring, but man it had me completely this time.

All the characters are so brilliant in their own way. Faceless weird aliens who say less than 3 words in an interaction (Kosh and “Kosh”) have dramatic character development and differences.

The “nice guy at first” but jerk doctor who’s just like his dad who he struggles with.

Just waiting to see if walkabout works for him.

G’Kar and Molari, the aides… Ah it’s such a rich tapestry.

Rincewindnz,

Just finished season 3, fan-flipping-tastic. Season 4 and cortage is a great new character.

Rincewindnz,

And they did a “girls’ mission” which didn’t feel like those forced “girls’” missions.

Rincewindnz,

Failing that there is a good has strut replacement place in Auckland too.

Enjoy that no kids thing! The break without them every now and again is so essential. We only manage one or two weekends a year with four of the blighters.

Rincewindnz,

I get visions of HAL or that Simpsons Halloween special with the sentient house.

Rincewindnz,

These are an essential piece of beach/holiday gear to fix your jandals(flipflops or thongs in Australia)with.

Rincewindnz,

Also enjoying the episode on fanatical xenophobia too!

Rincewindnz,

I kinda think we should have an independent, protected and taxpayer funded media service. Would make for better politicians.

Rincewindnz,

RNZ is great, Of the mediums it doesn’t have the same reach, it’s quality which should happen on TVNZ etc. I know they are funded as well, but it seems like they are just as bad as everyone else.

Rincewindnz,

Ignore my ramblings. I’m just frustrated at the state of our media/news and can’t think of a solution.

Rincewindnz,

Looking good.

I was curious if this was the shed you were putting up! Hilarious. I read the reviews which matches with your progress updates.

Was going to get this for my place. Will be interested to hear your review once it’s done.

Rincewindnz,

Skim of plaster and a couple of coats of primer/sealer? (I’m not a builder)

Rincewindnz,

Last two days of leave coming up, tested positive for covid this morning. Thankful it is no where near as bad as last time round!

Rincewindnz,

Haha, the pragmatic outlook! Love it.

Rincewindnz,

The purple Drazi look cooler.
