I may have been too hasty - is this fuzzy center good or bad?
A cross-section of a morel mushroom. The center appears fuzzier than the author expected.

Have a spare Derek to trade - looking for a Tarek, a Gareth, or a Jaron
A screenshot of a BlueSky notification that shows several users who have liked a post about Carl Sagan. Their names are similar: Derek, Darren, Darryl, Jarred, Garret, Eric, and another Derek. The original post reads, "Carl Sagan "For small creatures such as we, the vastness is bearable only through love." The original post contains a GIF file that depicts Carl Sagan with his hair blowing in the wind.

Minnesota had the chance to take the crown
This is a flag that was submitted in the competition to design Minnesota's new state flag. A thick, wavy, white, horizontal stripe divides the two colors in the background field just below halfway. The background above the white stripe is blue, and space below the white stripe is green. We see a profile image of a common loon that seemingly wades on top of the white stripe, facing to the right. A laser beam extends out from the loon's eyes to the right edge of the flag, and the beam appears to splash with energy upon impact.
