comic panel of batman angrily breaking a shotgun in half. as he does, he says "*this* is the weapon of the *enemy*. we do not *need* it. we will not *use* it. the chatgpt butthole logo has been superimposed over the shotgun.

this is sick! i love the animations
not sure if this is a bug you're already aware of or not, but on my mobile firefox, it's doing this sort of bouncing thing constantly, probably because of the odd screen size (1080x2340)
also happens in landscape, but works fine in the fullscreen mode

you and me both posting this at the exact same time
two simplified, glowing blue human busts facing each other on a black background. in each of their heads is a network of glowing multicolored lines of consciousness. a handful of these lines reach out and connect between the heads in an abstract representation of telepathy.

kids flash cards for matching animals, where each animal picture/name is split in half. the pair in the photo is the front half of a turtle, and the back half of a monkey, resulting in a "turkey"

@puzzmo.com i think there's an issue with your site rn, getting just a blank page on every browser/network i load it on
phone screenshot of the puzzmo app (through a webview from the bluesky android app, in this case). the entire page is white, as if it was still loading, except the loading has completed, and there is no progress bar.

checked it out, but disappointed to see that i'm forced to pay for the ai models
@kagi.com, you should really ditch this ai garbage, you seem to have a good product aside from it
screenshot of the pricing page for kagi search. it has starter and professional monthly subscriptions showing for $5 and $10 a month, for 300 and an unlimited amount of searches per month respectively. both unfortunately also include an ai assistant with standard models. i just want to search. i do not want any involvement with the Lying Machine That Tells Lies. this does not belong in any product, much less a search engine. chatgpt delenda est.

for anyone else curious, the flag was saved, and here's what it actually looks like, although the color has faded over the past 110 years. (source is unfortunately facebook www.facebook.com/NewMexicoHis...)
a photograph of the original flag the mockup is based on. it looks very similar, with the us flag in the top left, arabic numeral 47 in the top right, new mexico seal in the bottom right, and bold, serif, all caps "new mexico" text going diagonally from bottom left to top right in the center, with the letters gradually decreasing in size. however the text has no black outline here, the backdrop has faded from teal to white, it is in a taller aspect ratio, 4:3 or so, and it is fringed with gold along the bottom edge.

new spot the oriole game as a late submission to the #worstbirdpic trend

poor guy got scared away from my feeder by a mockingbird before i could get a picture, and before he could even grab a bite, and this is where i found him when i rushed outside
#birds
a high zoom phone photo of a wire fence covered in ivy in front of a backdrop of very leafy trees and other foliage. looking closely, you can just barely make out the signature flame orange of an oriole sitting on the fence, mostly hidden by the leaves.

hell yeah this rules
a set of wooden upgrades for the board game wingspan from meeplesource sitting on a table. in the middle is a wooden dice tower filled with wood versions of the 6 food types in the game. a large scissor-tailed flycatcher meeple sits on top as a first player marker, and surrounding it are 7 sets of 8 smaller bird meeples: barn owls, rainbow lorikeets, lilac-breasted rollers, cedar waxwings, northern cardinals, common ravens, and common kingfishers.

flowers were more cooperative though
a macro photo of some taller grass, in focus speckled around the image are small purple flowers (i think blue-eyed grass?), there's also some out of focus, equally small white flowers as well (some type of sandwort?) similar to the previous picture, but with some out of focused grass and flowers in the foreground, and an assortment of both types of flower in focus. on the right of the photo, you can also make out the details of a blade of grass, and a flower bud.
