Stargate SG-1’s Christopher Judge wants to make a Jaffa spinoff series

There’s been no official momentum on anything Stargate-related since the end of Origins (which has since been compiled into a film-style cut, combining all the webisodes), but it's worth noting Judge is still actively involved with the franchise in an official capacity as host of the Stargate Command streaming service’s Dialing Home interview series. So he’s certainly in proximity to the ears that would need to be bent about a new web project. Judge also wrote several episodes of SG-1 over the years, helping craft the mythology of the Jaffa from behind and in front of the camera. So he certainly has the know-how and skill set.

GateWorld has been a lot more active lately.

Friends, we're making tremendous progress with the Phoney Russia Witch Hunt. With bringing ACCOUNTABILITY to our Department of Justice. Because the Articles of Impeachment on Rod Rosenstein are out.

Folks, I'm hearing that the alt-left is doing something very scary. They're getting into our Democratic Party -- used to be a great party (when I was in it), it's not great anymore, it's about to get MUCH WORSE. Because we have the alt-left pretending to be Dems. They're Fake Dems. And they're fooling people with their fake promises. Even in St. Louis, otherwise known as the home of the forgotten men and women of our country. Folks, I haven't forgotten you. And the Republican Party hasn't forgotten you. We're doing tax credits. We're doing expanded health savings accounts -- the universal healthcare I promised. And nobody can beat me on the economy (and jobs). New numbers coming out soon, you're going to see TREMENDOUS growth there. Don't get taken in. Don't waste your vote. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! 🇺🇸 dailycaller.com/2018/07/23/conservative-alexandria-ocasio-cortez-rally

After Elon Musk called a rescue diver a "pedo", all sorts of people have been crawling out of the woodwork to bash him. But this bit takes the cake:

SpaceX — which Musk touts as replacing NASA and colonizing Mars — has been a literal failure to launch. So many of its rockets have burned up or crashed that Musk, for reasons unknown, has made a blooper reel.

Jesus Fucking Christ.

I'll let you judge whether the other attacks in the article (mostly about Tesla) are accurate.

A man has been jailed for having sex with a horse he claimed had given him consent.

Daniel Raymond Webb-Jackson broke into the stables and was caught on CCTV abusing the animal.

However, when questioned, the 31-year-old claimed the filly had agreed to sex because she smelt his crotch and winked at him.

‘60 Minutes’ Boss Hired Law Firm Over #MeToo Story

One of television’s most powerful men, 60 Minutes Executive Producer Jeff Fager, hired a law firm that boasts about “killing stories” for a Washington Post investigation into him, three sources familiar with the matter told The Daily Beast.

The story was a deep dive into what CBS managers knew about former anchor Charlie Rose’s alleged sexual misconduct, but due to the aggressive tactics of law firm Clare Locke, the sources said, the story was “effectively neutered.”

Clare Locke also did work for former Today show host Matt Lauer and current New York Times reporter Glenn Thrush, three sources say. Both men were accused in news publications of sexually harassing women. The law firm was also recently hired by David Pecker, the CEO and chairman of American Media Inc., parent company of the National Enquirer, to try and shut down a negative story from a newspaper, according to two sources.
