The M.O.D.O.K. teaser trailer.
What the hell is this? It’s… stop-motion? Well, whatever it is: it’s coming out in May on Hulu.
The CYBERPUNK 2077 1.2 patch has dropped.
Lots of QOL repairs, apparently. I haven’t checked it out yet because the patch is pretty damn big, too (almost 29 gigs). Although… is that big, these days? A game that size would have been starkly incomprehensible to me, twenty years ago, let alone a patch.

PS: The Cyberpunk 2077 patch is so late because some hackers decided to try and do some ransomware. …And there’s been nothing on that story since. It’s interesting, really.
Got some preliminary art in for MORGAN BAROD.
It’s still in the introductory sketch phase, but so far it’s looking good. If you’re reminded of Weasels ripped my flesh! — well, that’s deliberate. As in, I explicitly referenced it when I told the artist what I wanted.
Face full of dust…
…kind of literal, actually. The new TV came – well, first they delivered it to some other dude, who then kindly dropped it off here because it wasn’t his. I set it up after dinner, and that’s when I discovered the dust. We should have possibly dusted that part of the living room… I mean, we should have possibly dusted that part of the living room more. Yeah. That’s right. More.
But it’s done! And the swelling in one nostril should fade any minute now. Any minute now…
The WRATH OF MAN trailer.
(H/T @SonnyBunch) I will see this in theaters. There is virtually no point to seeing WRATH OF MAN anywhere else. In my opinion, at least – but small-screening this ballet of revenge and casual head shots seems… pointless.

‘Wild Mountain Thyme.’
This band is a fixture in the Maryland Renn Faire community. Which isn’t my community, exactly. But the two worldviews are similar enough that I can participate easily enough, as long as I’m not a jackass.
Today went well!
It’s my birthday, so I largely ate well and lazed about. Oh, and cleaned the kitchen because I didn’t want to spend the whole day lazing about. It’s weird, what becomes ‘fun’ when you get to be my age. I also got details on artwork for future products, so I even did a vague amount of work. that’s always nice.
Regular posting resumes tomorrow.
Patreon Microfiction: ‘Domestication.’
There’s been a lot of photons burned over the idea that humans will be seen as space orcs (to which I say, MORE DAKKA), but ‘Domestication’ offers another thought: what if we’re space elves? Like the ones out of folklore? The awful folklore?
If so, I’m surprisingly cool with it.

Oh, great. They’re gonna make another Transformers movie.
Get ready for more Transformers[*].
Paramount Pictures has made a blind script commitment to develop a new feature based on the popular Hasbro brand.
*I would prefer not to.
Via Coming Soon, which is inexplicably happy to hear this reminder that the heat death of the universe is inexorable, looming over our meager scratches in the dust of a decaying world. And it doesn’t even gloat over it! It doesn’t care enough to gloat. It feels nothing about humanity; not even indifference…
Sorry. I’m not very fond of Transformers movies. Except for, you know.
Played hooky! It’s my birthday weekend.
No apologies, honestly: I wanted to eat steak and shoot Nerf guns with my kids and generally enjoy a nice, warm day, and I did. Also: my birthday’s tomorrow, but it’s gonna rain tomorrow, so all of that got scheduled for today. So I played hooky. Go me.
