Just put up a poll on Patreon (anybody can take it)…
…on what my next art print should be. The options are one of my three Fermi Resolution novels, or the maps I had made. I probably should have added the cover for GHOSTS ON AN ALIEN WIND, but the Fermi Resolution books are easily the biggest sellers.
Go take the pool!

Quote of the Day, It Fits The HELLDIVERS 2 Aesthetic edition.
Not likely to happen, but the thought made me laugh:
During a recent discussion in the Helldivers 2 Discord, Jorjani responded to a fan fan-casting Chris Pratt as a Bile Titan by saying: “We’re all hoping for as many A-list actors as possible. As long as they all get killed violently immediately.”
The thing, though? If the cameos are short enough, you could afford a lot of them. Like, a lot a-lot. I could see somebody doing a gory death in HELLDIVERS 2 for scale, just for the fun of it.

Early bedtime.
Today and yesterday were full of issues; hopefully tomorrow will have fewer of them. In either case, I kind of have the Sleep Madness. Time to hit the hay.
The coming of the Nintendo Switch 2.
GeekTyrant has more details. At first glance, it looks more like a refinement of the Switch than anything else: larger size, integral stand, that sort of thing. Supposedly it’s coming out in 2025. Probably it’s gonna be an absolute monster of a seller when it does. Hopefully you’ll be able to play all your old games on it, too.
A new installment of THE BOLD MARAUDER is up!
Shorter than usual, but it’s been a really haywire week. Besides, I had to update the PDF and EPUB, and there’s been a bunch of extra content on Patreon already this month. I’m counting my blessings.

Self-Tweet Of The Day, The SCOTUSBlog Emulates Bad Company* edition.
Man, I didn’t have writing this tweet on my Bingo card for 2025:
It must be admitted that Tom Goldstein didn't do half bad at achieving pimpdom. Sketchy friends, fast money, and a stable of faster women is at least *a* lifestyle goal, even if it wouldn't exactly be *my* lifestyle goal. https://t.co/FhwY2IcDK5

I’m not being particularly inaccurate, either. Dude used his boutique law firm to cover gambling debts, hide gambling winnings, and keep several women in style and health insurance. Or, as Archer would put it, Victimless crimes, Mikey. …No, I suppose I am not taking this story entirely seriously. Remember, kids: don’t trash your professional career and reputation for the sake of tawdry pleasures of the flesh. Even if said pleasures are the top-shelf stuff.

The ‘Clever Idea’ UNTIL DAWN trailer.
This might be something to see with Eldest Son. Checking now. Anyway, the conceit of UNTIL DAWN is very TTRPG, which is a compliment in this context. May go to see this on my own.

The DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN trailer.
I admit, I never finished the series. I don’t even know why. DAREDEVIL was pretty good! Just wasn’t my style, I guess. But this looks promising.
This month’s Bold Marauder Patreon entry will be delayed a day.
Had to unscramble Youngest Son’s midterm science project. Will have to do it again tomorrow, but I can schedule for that. Anyway, I’ll get the next installment up tomorrow.
