Let's face it... that's kind of outstanding. But we're still aware of how many people we didn't cover. (Andy stopped counting submissions when they got to 200 a few weeks ago.) Also Andy wants to say a huge thanks to @lydiaturner97.bsky.social & Gary Usher for all their work on #ThoughtBubbleatBF25.
