I’m totally charmed by these snaps of some of the best sumo wrestlers in the world touring London, posing in front of Big Ben, doing the Abbey Road walk, etc. [kottke.org]

4 panel comic

P1: A little one-eyed robot lies in a bed, tucked under a floral pattern quilt. Two scientists stand in the background, looking confused. The older one on the left, holding a tablet device in his left hand, says "I... I don't understand..."

P2: Close up on the scientists, as the older one says "I didn't program them to be capable of sleep, see?" as he hands the tablet over to the younger scientist. The latter looks down at the tablet with a look of bemusement, as he says "HUH. And they even..."

P3: The older interjects with "INDEED. I switched them on, and they immediately constructed a bed..." The younger guy raises the tablet for a closer look, with obvious shock on his face.

P4: Closeup on the robot, looking utterly snug and content. The older scientist finishes with "...then they just crawled right in. That was two weeks ago."

Shit, okay, I guess I *have* been putting off that disk scan and review and cleanup for a *while* now.

Stephen Collins @stephencollins.bsky.social · 20d

Zoom out 🙏 🤩 #wonder

Cartoon strip by me who is Stephen Collins. The imagery of the comic starts off with a single electron and then each panel zooms out one step - first to the microchip, then the OLED screen, then the iPhone, the person holding the iPhone, and onwards

Script:

An electron, forged in the first fire of the Big Bang

Courses through a deeply intricate maze of transistors and diodes

mined with unfathomable ingenuity from our planet’s deep geological past

and assembled from all over the world

Into a device perfected through centuries of technological evolution

to perform a beautifully synchronised pixel dance on an OLED screen

in an intricate moving pattern of shifting light

[Show a phone screen with an Instagram post featuring Ryan Gosling and bearing the legend:]

WATCH RYAN GOSLING EAT A PASTY FOR THE FIRST TIME!

whose choreography is powered by an global information network of unknowable complexity

which is specifically tailored to the interests of the being observing the screen

who is a member of the most advanced species on Earth

[Show a shlubby looking GUY idly looking at the Ryan Gosling/sausage roll Instagram reel on his phone while sitting in his pants and a stained t-shirt and eating a massive bag of crisps]

with a brain perhaps more capable of reconfiguring these signals into conscious thought than any other for billions of miles around

[Guy has a thought]:
“Mmm…"

in this endless, silent void.

[Pull back to show the Earth as a tiny blue dot among the stars with a thought bubble coming from it]

"… I want a pasty.”

[ends]

Wrapped up Achilles Legends Untold this weekend. Not very difficult once you get upgrades under your belt, story is a snore, voice acting is amateurish at best, but I got it for very cheap and it satisfyingly scratched my ARPG videogame itch.

noseyferatu

6 panel comic, black & white with a *slight* touch of sepia

P1: A window set in a brick wall, its angles all Dutch. Stood before it on the inside of the building --hands against the pane-- is everyone's favourite absolute goblin of a dracula: Nosferatu!

He is staring at us, his lizard-like eyes wide, while his frowning mouth --slightly ajar-- displays a single sharp buck tooth

P2: Nose's eyes open wider, taking on a tall squished oval shape. His mouth bunches up --but does not close-- in horror. His clawed hands move to his right; the left held limply over his chest, while the right is held up and to the top right of his head.

He thinks to himself "ACK! Those neighbours think I'm staring at them..."

P3: In the same position as the previous panel, Nose begins to move to this right, his right hand now slightly out of the frame of the window, and obscured by the outside wall. He thinks "act casual"

P4: Moving further to his right --his right arm now completely out of view-- he continues "Act. Casual."

P5: the window is now empty--

P6: --only for Nose to peek up from the bottom left (our bottom left, mind) of the window, only his wide eyes visible.
