2023-04-06 07:41:55 +0000 UTCPartly accurate. The distrust of strangers developed in balance with the extreme benefits of being a social species with group cooperation. As with most such pressures, a balance is stuck between the two for individuals and societies but it's not static.

2023-04-06 03:29:03 +0000 UTCyes we do. The Expanse is my favourite SiFi show ever but the books are still so much better.

2023-04-06 02:11:59 +0000 UTCAnother reason that the characters seem so fully developed is that it was also a TTRPG that the writers participated in, so the characters have depth. And the writers of the novels are writers for the series.

2023-04-06 00:25:25 +0000 UTCHuman "xenophobia" is the unfortunate result of being the survivor of over 200 millennia of evolutionary selection pressures where trusting "strangers" could lead to loss of resources and perhaps the destruction of your entire tribe. Now our brains have a natural predilection to distrust strangers that we have to actively cerebrate around which is not always easy.

2023-04-06 00:05:19 +0000 UTCYou are correct that the Rocinante is the hero ship of the show, and you will be seeing it get repaired after every conflict where missiles, railguns, and PDCs are used because ships become damaged and need maintenance in this setting.

2023-04-05 23:38:30 +0000 UTCIf you were to hit Mars with enough damage to shatter the entire planet, the rubble would still produce a gravitational effect and (over eons) would eventually reform as a spherical aggregate. Destroying Deimos is of no real consequence to the solar system, though the psychological damage done to the Martian people is going to be enormous.

2023-04-05 23:35:36 +0000 UTCI love comparing how Holden and Amos approach the interrogation of the scientist. Holden is completely failing because if you listen closely to what he's saying it's all coming from a perspective of empathy and care, Holdens driving motivations. But it's a complete waste on Cortazar and Amos sees it while Holden is just confused.

2023-04-05 23:20:01 +0000 UTCSeconding Tom M's comment: you should watch the next two back-to-back. Even if you drop the content on schedule. You really should do the twofer for yourselves. Those two episodes bring it 'Home' (ahem) in a big way ... narratively, emotionally, epically. Really. :)

2023-04-05 22:14:09 +0000 UTCYou HAVE to watch the next two episodes one after another. Though I don't think it is necessary to encourage it, the next episode will speak for itself. Diogo is (so far) the only developed character from Belter youth, a great example of a radicalised Belter who knows only oppression - from the Earth corps running Ceres, from the Martians, so from all Inners and now sees genocide on Eros. I think that in 'the West' (however we define it) majority of people tend to forget how humans act when facing oppression of the worst kind - a genocidal one. The entire Belter community will have to face many choices and many OPA factions will deal with it differently, including with extreme violence. I think you are making a big mistake to treat Diogo as just gullible, easy to lead person. At this moment there is no real choice for a large part of the Belter population, but to fight or face another Eros. That is how they see it and they have the right to see it this way. Sadly in real life we can observe considerably more extreme examples of true monsters who will murder whole communities and brag about it. Amos - there aren't any really shallow characters in the series, but this guy is outstanding as a male 'tough guy' character. His character arc is fascinating.

2023-04-05 21:09:51 +0000 UTCI absolutely hate that you guys only post these once a week. Don't get me wrong I understand why, because content. But I still hate it. Every episode from you guys has been a banger.

2023-04-05 20:56:07 +0000 UTCI have to watch these twice so I can see both your reactions! Finally Clarus out dressed Nerdy! Now let’s see how you two giggle monster did this week!

2023-04-05 20:41:44 +0000 UTCGravity follows the inverse square law. If Mars were to just disappear it wouldn't have a huge effect immediately but it's cumulative effects she might be significant over the course of decades as there would be minor shifts in the orbits of all the planetary and subplanetary bodies that would in turn affect one another until a new equilibrium was reached
