That’s a great site.
I did collect a few drawings like that some years ago, but didn’t go nearly as far as these folks did.

My favorite bit is the bicycle.
Not only because, why T F a bicycle at all, but because bicycles are really hard to draw, and this ... is not how it should look.
I’ve seen worse, butthere is no room for the bottom bracket or saddle tube. And the spokes look like that circular tree of live diagram

Is the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy another story Musk has heared about but clearly never understood?
Like Stranger in a Strange Land and the Culture series.

That would be the Kill-O-Zap:
"Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it."

Clarke the doesn't do much thing with the idea.
"‘And how,’ he said, ‘do you suppose we smell to them?’
To his relief, his five guests showed no obvious signs of
olfactory distress when they were introduced, one at a time."

Reminds me of the first contact scene in Clarke's Songs of Distant Earth:
The visitors from Earth ... "'They — ah — smell a little odd. (...) “Aromatic" is probably the best word to describe it.’"

With fire, but not as a little witchy ritual.
Like the emperor setting fire to the urbs. (urbem?)
Like Nero burning Rom(e)!

Here are the rules Qt is using to choose the singular, paucal and plural forms.
For French it is the equivalent of "zero apple".

A type of Scotish vocalist wordlessly shouting at the top of their lungs.
It used to be called pipes, drums and grungling, but as there haven't been any young grunglers for a while it is just pipes and drums now.

Oh. the Daily Mail doesn't ilke what happens in Ireland.
There's a surprise. Not.
🎶
And it wouldn't be surprising
If there'd be another rising

I have doubts.
There is too little variation in # signs. They are always just to pairs of perfectly parallel lines. That is very different from the variations of various & signs.
My theory for the connection between # and pound is that # and £ are on shift-3 on US and British typewriters.

The basic idea is that the factor for going from one diameter to the next is always the same. Taking the two values at the ends and the number of steps gives that formula

0.005 x 92^((36-n)/39) inch.
It makes some sense, tho.

Wikipedia has the formula.
That gives about 0.0100251 inch or 0.254639 mm

Probably pronouced the name right.
