I was surprised by the horror episode of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. It wasn't Event Horizon, but it was considerably darker than ST tends to skew, and I really enjoyed it.

Out of the blue, I’ve just had the greatest idea for a screenplay. It’s a cosmic horror with vibes of Twin Peaks and Backrooms. I’ll see if I can get a treatment for it written this weekend…
Just got back from Spider-Man: Brand New Day and still digesting it, as there was a lot happening. But on the whole, really dug it.

#Jitterbug by Gareth L. Powell Come on! #TheExpanse and #CowboyBebop mashup? That's dirty advertising because who doesn't love both of those? "Jupiter and Saturn are gone,,,sentient ship Jitterbug" Yep. OK. Thought I was going to buy the on-sale Kindle edition until I sampled the audiobook.
Gareth L. Powell / G.L. Powell@garethlpowell.bsky.social · last wk.The idea for Jitterbug came from a desire to mash together the vibes of two of my favourite TV series, The Expanse and Cowboy Bebop. And when I imagined the giant, partially constructed Dyson sphere that plays a crucial part in the story, and realised what it was for, I had enough to start writing.
