For any of y'all who've read it, and wondered what the TUV/"Buckyball" would look like, here's Grok's output to my prompts (I have non-trivial quibbles, but I'd reached my limit of daily queries):

Here's a decent Buckyball render. The frame should be a mite more open, more clearly anchored to the sphere, sporting RCS & other hardware. Also, the window should be a bit larger, yadda-yadda.
Still and all, it gives a pretty good sense of what I was visualizing when I wrote NIGHT MUSIC.

This is why it's OKAY to punch Nazis, ostracize and laugh at MAGAts, disenfranchise fascists, discriminate against racists and other xenophobes, and cheat crooks.
Read it over a few times, and TRY to find a flaw in the logic.

Yo, @adammockler.com , I reckon it's time you get Kat Abughazaleh back on your show. She is absolute 🔥 on every level, and we need her type of energy in Congress if we're to wrest the Republic from the maw of the Doomsday Machine into which we're currently getting tractored!

In these times of darkness, tribalism, alienation, and rancor, sometimes we need reminders that Community, Found Family, EMPATHY are possible.
And if, for the time being, we need to find these in #SciFi, so be it. They'll tide us over, remind us of what's Important!

I am FULLY confident that Rory McCann will do a marvelous job as Baylan Skoll in Season 2 of Ahsoka.
However, as soon as it was announced that the role would be recast, I was firmly in the camp of Liam Cunningham (Ser Davos from Game of Thrones).

Note: Bar Zoom is the COOLEST spot in Elysium City (even better than the Fourth Rock Cafe, which is frosty but a mite touristy [plus, rumor has it, they water down their drinks...]).

This snippet of a rhyme from a character in NEW EYES sums up the basic theme of the novel.
Sure, it's pretty hard #SciFi, set mostly on #Mars.
But at its core, it's a story of relationships, Connections, Found Family.

Not to give too much away, but one of my characters in NEW EYES is an MC (what earlier generations would call a "Rapper.").
This is an excerpt of a rhyme which pretty much sums up my #SciFi novel, NEW EYES.
That novel is 🔥FREE🔥 till 7/19!!!
