A comic in 4 panels
Two characters, one with Type B and one with Type A written on them.

Type B says "Woah woah woah, slow down, friend"
"Dont'cha know that sometimes you have to stop and smell the flowers?"
Type A then aggressively smells the flowers
Type A then holds up a "Flower smelling champion" trophy"

Just learned that my dad is top of a global leaderboard for a random puzzle game with *four times* the points of second place

action/platformer speedruns: yea we have to do 100 frame perfect tricks to clip through all these sections and it's all skill based and precise practice and speed

The others all feel like their respective letters - G for Ultimate Guitar, T for Tonebridge, S for museScore, A for Audio.com, and H for museHub. The Audacity one seems to read like an R though, which feels off since there's nothing even close to an R in the name nor other branding

Just watched this on Nebula, love your deep dives on UX design.
To be one of those anticipated commenters, one thing really sticks out to me about the rebrand - The headphone icon for some reason reads like an R to me.

I just had an apple from my apple tree and holy moly it was absolutely perfect
Crisp, a little but not too sweet, slight bit of sharpness, little bit of astringency
Just delicious

I hadn't heard it until I got curious from this tweet... Is this Physical again?

the mods were lovely and offered to reinstate it since they appreciated the effort and said it was a well-thought out post, but honestly I haven't the energy to deal with the dogpile

just look at this cool graph :(

A graph showing three binomial distributions for the droprate of 6 Crystal Armour seeds, the current droprate for Enhanced Crystal Weapon seeds, and a proposed adjustment to the rate showing that due to an anomaly with the 6 seeds preventing being lucky, it's possible to improve the average experience and substantially curtail droprate outliers with a relatively minor affect on average luck without affecting the actual average number of items per kill coming into the game.

accidentally spent 10 hours today writing an in-depth statistical analysis of a weird drop rate anomaly in osrs, and after posting it everyone got really mad and then it was accidentally deleted because it was caught by an anti-merching filter

the one guy who agreed was called an obvious alt of me

Always remember that AI can generate images, but it cant generate art.
Art is a reflection of the human who made it. The intentions, the influences, the experiences, the emotions.
I dont sub to your Patreon because I like those images, I sub to it because I love your art.
Please never stop making it

whoever thought it was a good idea to put a plastic lining on the inside of a stitched seam in a part of clothing that touches the skin can forever do one

Also have to mention just how incredible Maddie Ashman was supporting, a real unexpected treat!
Genuinely so excited to listen to her music now, it was truly something really special. Incredible performance and incredibly unique, I've not been this excited to discover someone in a long time!

Truly incredible. Absolute insane energy start to finish, impeccable musicianship, just utterly phenomenal. I am so, so privileged that they came close enough that I could see them.

If ever they come back to this neck of the woods, you can be damn sure I'll be there again. Absolutely amazing.

Just saw Sungazer on their UK/Ireland tour, oh my *GOD* what a show.

@adamneely.bsky.social's gorgeous whale solos, Shawn's incredible counting to 5, Yeeeeeee, and Josh's utterly incredible shredding, just absolutely, truly magical.

God do I love counting and bopping awkwardly
