One question for Expanse fans as I continue to marathon the show: what is the crew of the Rocinante actually living from? I mean, we do get some explanations about freebie repairs and refueling, but who pays for the food, the clothing, the plants, any leisure activity item? It's not like they're traders, or in the passenger transport business. As Buffy Summers could tell you, hero-ing and world saving does not get paid.

Also, have some Beatles links. Get Back last November brought some new meta (and some new readers to older scribblings by yours truly, bless):

The Banality of Genius: Notes on Peter Jackson's Get Back: lovely lengthy essay about the three parter

What else did we get wrong?: amusing essay by Greg Jenner, who, I take it, is also the history consulted for Horrible Histories.

(Which reminds me, [personal profile] kathyh gave me the second season of Ghosts for Christmas, in which several HH veterans are involved, and it's as funny and charming as the first.)

Well, since you ask, Jenner, that sketch about Peter III might be somewhat more accurate than The Great, but the accent is dead wrong - what with him not being Russian...
