Best jersey design ever. (details in alt text) (h/t to @byharryconnolly.bsky.social for posting about it)

A photo of Bill Kahler wearing a replica of the 2026 Belgian World Cup Away jersey, with a blue, pink, and white pattern based on Rene Magritte's surrealist painting The Voice of Space.

The reverse of the jersey, with "Ceci n'est pas un maillot" ("This is not a jersey", a reference to Magritte's _The Treachery of Images_, where an image of a pipe is captioned "Ceci n'est pas une pipe") printed between the collar and Kevin De Bruyne's name.

A screenshot from the game Magic Archery, showing, in pixel art style, a small archer on the left firing arrows at two targets, with a misty pixel art forest in the background. The nearer target has just been destroyed, and floating numbers nearby indicate the amount of damage it took and the amount of experience awarded.

The "INTO THE MACHINE!" sequences from JACK AND THE WITCH (1967). The machine transforms people and critters into evil blue-skinned "harpies", who then turn on their former friends (and try to put them in the machine). I think I saw this on local tv when I was around 7.

Two stills from JACK AND THE WITCH (1967). In the top image, evil blue-skinned "harpies" shout "Into the machine!" down at Jack, who is shown in the second image being sucked towards the open mouth of the harpy conversion machine, which resembles the head of a dragon.

Well, hello Cone of Uncertainty, we don't see you around these parts too often. Storm-vulnerable folks in San Diego, you might want to start thinking about sandbags and so forth...

NOAA tracking map of Tropical Storm Hilary, showing it currently (16 August) S of the southern coast of Mexico, but projected as of 7am on 21 August to be a tropical storm just S of Tijuana.
