    help ya be part of today’s 10k

    As a long-time xkcd-fan, I did not need to look that one up! :-)

    The Expanse would have been a perfect típ if I hadn’t already watched it and also read the complete book series. Twice… 😆

    I am not so sure about “Scavengers Reign”, as I generally have a hard time enjoying animated stuff.
    But there have been exceptions in the past (really liked the Animatrix short films, and after first forcing myself to watch and get accustomed to it, also I am now a Lower Decks fan), so I will give it at least a try!

      Awesome! No time like today to watch it all over again! 😋 I’m ~5x now, heh. So little hits all those marks, and it is such an incredibly rich setting, too.

      Which is where, I feel, Scavengers Reign comes in: as a spiritual successor in what could easily be in-universe, and done with such exquisite skill, no less. Highly recommend, and I feel ya on the pickiness re: animated works. Its style alone could carry the series, but it’s supported by a masterful story, a uniquely alien setting & mechanics, etc. Don’t sleep on it. 🤘🏼
