Film & TV — a classification, not a measurement. An on-box language model (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-FP8, prompt version 1) read this channel’s own recent posts on 3 October 2026 and assigned it the closest of 31 fixed categories, at 65% confidence. This is a model’s judgement about what the channel is likely to be about, not a fact this register measured the way a subscriber count or a view count is measured — it can be revised on a later pass, and it carries no weight anywhere else on this page. How this classification works, and why it has no browse page of its own yet.

20 posts held, back to 9 August 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 20 posts for this entry, the most recent from 12 August 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
Question: getting my show and book chronology mixed up (minor spoilers) I’ve watched the show and am currently on my first journey through the books. Currently reading Nemesis Games, and this is where we get Naomi’s backstory and meet Marco/Filip. Now, since I’ve seen the show, I knew who Marco and Filip are, and have known for some time who they are to Naomi. But for the life of me, I can’t remember if this is the…
Amos Burton is my spirit animal. We'll just roll up in a stolen Mickey Corvette, with a dead Martian in the trunk. I'm sure they'll roll out the red carpet. https://redd.it/1vmqfr5 @r_theexpanse
Time is short and I'll be brief, Time is short and I'll be brief, Martian Defense Minister Korshunov suffered a fatal heart attack this evening. Simultaneously, the MCRN Karakum, dispatched by Korshunov to take delivery of your Protomolecule technology was destroyed over Ganymede. And I gave the order. And I can give the same order, to end your life as you breathe at the same coordinates i'm sending this message. We…
Stargate SG-1 S3E20 (Prax) I love it when an actor unexpectedly turns up in other shows. I am old enough to say I watched SG-1 when it was first aired. I'm on my nth rewatch on netflix and it's the first time I've clocked that Prax is the monk protecting the harcesis child! I only recognised his voice first; he looks so young! https://redd.it/1vm5xb5 @r_theexpanse
Vitamin D A lot of time is spent talking about the effects of low g and how the populations compensate for it like working out in resistance gel or bands, etc. But I don’t recall anything talking about the lack of sunlight, other than the occasional reference to some of the belters being pale. Did I miss a part where this is addressed? I’m sure it’s something that could be explained by the autodoc or drugs or food …
Who's the bigger monster? Dr. Lawrence Strickland, who never once shows evidence of having any conscience or empathy, or Jules Pierre-Mao, who does have these things, but does evil things anyway? And does it matter in the end, when the result is essentially the same? (Let's ignore the possibility Strickland had his capacity for empathy surgically removed, as this would complicate the question.) https://redd.it/1v…
The Expanse Trading Cards https://redd.it/1vkup5s @r_theexpanse
On the Funny 'A' in the Title... (Mild S6 Spoiler?) So after I got bored of waiting for my husband to sit down at watch season 6 with me, I finally got around to it myself. As I watched the Strange Dogs cold open, and we pulled back to the location text that revealed the planet was Laconia, and the final 'A' lost its crossbar to resemble the 'A' from the series title, something that may have been obvious to everyone…
What was the point of... Laconia's planetary defenses? What good are defenses that can't even destroy four smaller ships? I understand Duarte didn't expect war to come to them but surely basic defense should have been able to defeat four smaller warships, even without their own ship support? Especially how can a ship land without issue? Were they just for show? They got one ship and that's it? The siege of Laconia i…
Foreshadowing Spoilers for the end of Leviathan Falls (and potentially other spoilers in comments). I'm on my second read through (listening to the audiobooks this time and loving them). Currently on Caliban's War chapter 26). Holden and Amos are getting ready to deal with the visitor in the Roci's cargo bay. Holden asks Amos to promise he won't die. I thought Amos' response was very interesting: “Cap,” Amos said …
Elite Dangerous Squadrons/Commanders? Anyone here also play Elite Dangerous? Would you be interested in joining something either Expanse themed and you can join OPA, MCR or UNN and they all specialise in different things or simply just picking an organisation and modelling the squadron/roleplay elements around that. For anyone unfamiliar with Elite Dangerous, it's a really decent game. Check out some gameplay foota…
Which ancillary book is best? I finished all 9 of the regular Expanse books and I want to read one of the ancillary stories but maybe not all of them. Are there any that really shine? Are there any that aren’t as good? https://redd.it/1vlmsu9 @r_theexpanse
Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @r_theexpanse. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
A live page changes as we take new readings, so a citation should name the measurement it is based on, not just the URL. The line below cites the subscriber count as measured 14 September 2026 — this entry's latest reading, not the date you are reading this.
