[quote="Cobotron"]I just saw Star Trek Beyond, and was touched by the subtle nod to Sulu's orientation.

Yeah, I needed to take a break from this DIRE translation, and went to my to-read pile.
Here's an older version of me contemplating what's next.

I really have no idea what to get into first! Probably one of the three comics in that picture, or the Chiang short stories (one of them is the basis for Arrival). I'll see later tonight.

Wow, the Boss man in a book! Congrats!

Star Trek Beyond is an amazing movie. Into Darkness still steals my heart though with the ending.

Snagglepuss? What has happened to the world?

Looks like some interesting reads. I sent you my goodreads anyway just in case you wanna look it over if not thats fine too. I do find it a good way to find books in common with others.

There is a book I wanted to read called "I am Malala". It's about a girl in the middle east who did some things to improve education - I'll know the specifics when I read the book itself. I think it is important to read books from other cultures and people with different demographics than yourself so you can understand what other people may experience.

I am such a nerd that my local librarian has a nickname for me.

It's "Moose" because I carry my skateboard in my backpack straps and I got caught in the door once. 8-}

[quote="Va'al"]Dude, I have a BA in English Language & Literature, an MA in Literary Translation, a PhD in Literary Translation and Comics Studies, I've taught creative writing and literary criticism, I've had stories and poems published, and I work in book translation. Plus, my arm tattoo is literally 12 quotes from texts I came across during my first degree, in six different languages -- it's safe to say that yes, I am a nerd, and I am proud of it. :michaelbay:
