Today is the day! Born on Monday has launched everywhere books are sold, along with a brand new author website. Check it out! byrichardrbecker.com

The high-stakes crime thriller Third Wheel is on sale for $2.99 (Kindle) on Amazon. A gripping coming-of-age read for fans of Demon Copperhead, The Outsiders, or The Catcher in the Rye — raw, emotional, and teen consequences.

@happymonkey1874 @preciousStamets Not for holos anyway. 😂

Sam is really good character. I love her.

@jondelarroz Critics that don't help networks out won't get the first look material tomorrow. 😳

Reminder never to trust paid critics.

What happened next was the first lesson I learned in school. You can read it here. tinyurl.com/2aau9nzy

There were blue tickets, and there were red tickets. Blue tickets for the kids whose families could afford a 30-cent lunch. Red for those who could not. My ticket was red. And as red ticket holders, usually kids with large patches sewn onto secondhand pants, we lined up last as if a caste system existed within the public school. And maybe it did. After lunch, most of us red ticket holders were ushered off to portable classrooms dubbed the "barracks." Education was optional. ...

@stephenRB4 The struggle is real.

Do you ever panic that the number of books you want to read outweighs the amount of time you have to read them more and more with each passing day? Or is it just me?

@TaraBull Landman is a must-watch show. Really, it is. It completely breaks the reboot style.

Is Landman really good? I want to watch it

@catturd2 I knew you would love it!

Sorry I’m not tweeting much tonight - I’m binge watching Landman. It’s sooo freaking good. Have any of you seen it?

@AntiWokeMemes Burger queens.

What should these 2 politicians RUN for?

@RobertPicardo @jondelarroz Yes, all differences. You would understand this so much if you remember Gene wanted to make us think, not tell us what to think.

Careful! Can't remind the "real Star Trek fans" on this platform form what real Star Trek is and is meant to be. They get angry and abusive - - especially when you block them for being angry and abusive! @jondelarroz , for example, has no understanding of Gene Roddenberry's vision.

@tazey1517 @StarTrekSFA She doesn't even demonstrate the need on a consistent basis.

@StarTrekSFA Why is she wearing reading glasses. They literally cured the blind in TNG

A captain who reads! Such a controversy! Seriously though, how many times did Janeway and Chakotay gossip publicly on their Bridge in front of THE WHOLE BRIDGE CREW? Yet reading a book is somehow controversial?

@StarTrekSFA @melsorbit So, you would have no problem with your pilot reading while flying a plane? 😂

@melsorbit Here's an example, a lot of people were complaining about it on my posts a couple months ago (I have most of them blocked so I can't see most, but it was very much a "problem" for some people lol)

@StarTrekSFA A captain who reads on the bridge while supposedly on duty, using glasses in a universe with the technology to fix it in a minute, made more ironic because she never shows signs of being near sighted in ANY other circumstance. But hey, at least she had her shoes on for this one.

@niggir4931 @titMcGrit2 Fair take.

@RichBecker @titMcGrit2 That requires paying talented people salaries. That's cutting into profits.

Noooooooooooooooooooooo

@stephenRB4 Sometimes, the best thing about a story is that it has an ending.

Reports that a ‘sequel’ is being made to the Lord of the Rings movies. This is a very, very bad idea.

@GuntherEagleman Getting that paycheck. 😂

No one cares.

@catturd2 You’ll enjoy it.

I’m going to start watching Landman - I heard it was good.

@fandompulse That's an amazing view from the hill of entitlement.

Starfleet Academy actress Gina Yashere reacts to the show's cancellation: "Obviously, gutted. I thought we made an amazing show. The first season was fantastic. ... And Season 2 is even better. ... Obviously, the world is still not ready to hear the message of love, peace, infinite diversity, acceptance, the eschewing of violence and senseless wars. We're not ready to hear that message yet, and hopefully one day we will be. And Star Trek will be back stronger than ever. And preferably with the same message and not completely white washed." Do you agree with her?

@DelusionPosting It's a war on language. “Dr. Danielle Ignace at the University of British Columbia claimed the at the EEB Language Project "will be a living document, as particular words that are harmful and their alternatives can change over time."

@burnside_brett @titMcGrit2 Right? 😂

@RichBecker @titMcGrit2 Hollywood: We don't do original, that would take... creativity (gulp!)
