It's that classic Douglas Adams quote:

"I love deadlines. I love the whooshing noise they make as they go by.”

I'm willing to lay down cash that someone made that drawing as a sketch to illustrate the requirement of the system in this state...

Given how much the producers enjoyed setting up an explosion for every ad break, I have to wonder if it was the writers being restrained or their military advisors wanting to down play a particular flavour of gung ho. Event horizon diplomacy has a certain sparkle to it, though.

I am actually going to start a campaign for "off to breach the Workplace Regulations" to be a new euphemism for going to the loo.

Hilarious LRR office discussion of the curling debacle, in which we—as Canadians—are disappointed.

Cover drawn by me, featuring the character Amos Burton standing in a crowd with his gun drawn. In the foreground two shadowed figures approach him, also carrying guns. Like all four covers, it is coloured in a cyan and magenta colour scheme.

Amos hides behind a walk, protecting a young girl from two security types looking for them. He has his gun drawn and has one hand pressed against his side, where blood is visible leaking from a wound.

Amos is being punched in the face by a large guy with a beard and a shaved head. His head is covered in Belter tattoos.

Amos kneels on the floor in a dark room, looking exhausted. He is surrounded by the dead bodies of people he has shot. From behind him, a figure emerges from the darkness with a gun pointed at his head.

Here's all four covers I did for THE EXPANSE: A LITTLE DEATH

Wave/particle duality is particularly problematic at sea, yes.
