This is a view from the surface of Comet 67P. The busy particles in the foreground are cosmic rays or bits of dust and ice. The dots moving in the background are stars.

Repeat after me, Nick: Intellectual property is still property. Theft is still theft. A business that can't succeed without theft? That's called a criminal enterprise. Also: get ****ed, you techbro quisling.

diffraction spikes? you mean telescope astigmatism?
A spherical collection of stars which fills the whole view. The cluster is dominated by a concentrated group of bright white stars at the center, with several large yellow stars scattered throughout the image. Many of the stars have visible diffraction spikes. The background is black.

Happy New Year! (my cartoon for @newscientist.bsky.social)
Two scientists share an office.
The first, whose half of the room is neat and tidy, says
“My new year's resolutions are to jog to work every day, choose the healthy option at lunch, and run a pleasant, well-ordered workspace.”

The second, working in a total mess, replies
“In the interests of scientific rigour, I'll be the control, and change absolutely nothing.”

Explain this, humankind
Comic by War and Peas. Panel 1: Two green aliens are at a press conference, sitting behind microphones. One alien happily says, "Jesus? We love that guy!" Panel 2: A human reporter with a microphone looks surprised and says, "We’ve been waiting centuries for his second coming." Panel 3: The first alien casually responds, "Really? He comes to us every year." The second alien adds, "We invited him for cookies. What did you do?" The reporter starts to sweat. Panel 4: Both aliens pause, looking inquisitive. One alien asks, "Wait. What did you do?" All reporters sweat.

A two panel comic strip.

Panel 1: A light gray human shape (like a thicc stick figure) labelled "THE WEALTHY ELITE" reaches greedily, mouth open in excitement, towards a large floating yellow ball that is labelled "A SECOND GILDED AGE"

Panel 2: same as above, but behind the gray figure (who now has a sweat drop to indicate nervousness on its head) is a VERY large pink blob labelled "THE RETURN OF OUTLAW FOLL HEROES" with one arm wrapped around the gray figure, expression quietly threatening

This is Chicken. She helps shy puppies feel safe and comfortable at the shelter where her human works. When the staff noticed her unique ability to help shy pups feel confident, Chicken quickly found herself with a full-time job. After all, every mother hen is, in fact, a Chicken. 13/10
Chicken stands on the right edge of frame, her wiry hair poking up in a single tuft atop her noggin. she’s got two little puppy buddies running around on her right, both light brown with bits of black and white.Chicken and a bernese mountain dog pup sit side-by-side in a long corridor. they both have their heads tilted slightly and tongues sticking out. also their feet seem to have matching white sock patterns on all of their toes.Chicken looks at the camera with her sweet muppet eyebrows. she’s laying down on a puffy white bed, and there’s a teensy brown dachshund puppy laying down next to her with a timid expression on their face.
