Remixed webcomic of stick figure dad walking into a room asking "Are ya winning, son?". The stick figure boy sitting at a compute replies "I'm making 11 people laugh on mltshp". The original comic used Mastodon in the punchline.

Me and the mister
alt text
A woman with grey-brown hair pulled back in a brain and a green plaid flannel shirt stands behind a man who is seated. He is wearing a grey toque and black glasses and has a full white beard. He has one eye open for some reason. The woman has a hand on his shoulder and holds a piece of a cookie in her other hand. The woman is me and the man is the mister.
Not a great photo of either one of us but somehow I love it. This was before we sat down to watch the town talent show.
i love this

I always loved this photo. This is the driveway of our Michigan farm roughly 12 years ago, probably late winter/early spring. Shot on a Fuji x100t.

e-rex engine

animation loop of a modern engine design in which eight counter-opposed pistons are driven through intake, ignition, combustion, and exhaust - two pistons in each of four cylinders - by cams beneath each piston mounted on the wavelike surfaces of two counter-opposed flywheels. the ignitions appear as bright yellow flashes when each pair of pistons kisses at the top of their cycle.

Swashplate boxer engines come and go. My favourite is the Selwood engine from the 1950s, a football-sized thing that spun madly on its mounts. Disappeared without trace, of course.
@scruss I'm probably simple, but I love how much this reduces the number and complexity of bearing surfaces. No pushrods, crankshaft or rockers. Overhauling this one might even be downright pleasurable.

@heyitsal Holy shit. The only people who thought that was a good idea were the people who knew exactly what the "accidental" message was and liked it.
Also: My city just hosted its first major through-the-city marathon this past weekend and it was a fiasco. Not as far as the runners were concerned but organizationally it was a trainwreck, with thousands of residents left stranded because their nearest streets had been blocked off and they hadn't been notified.

I love that you used a title that accurately reflects the picture but also makes a call to another improv group which itself was named for the writers of the Jack Benny show.
Maybe comedy troupe would have been better than improv group.
Although now I see that it was also used to refer to the writers of the Sid Caesar show.
Birthday Bikepacking Trip
alt text
A forest service cabin on the USFS rental program surrounded by a grassy area in the foreground, then a forest of lodgepole pine in the background. The cabin in located on the Kootenai National Forest in NW Montana. My bicycle is leaning against the cabin in the porch.
I rode 76 miles out to this cabin last weekend for my birthday. This is Fairview Ranger Station in one of the lesser traveled areas of NW Montana. The route takes ALL the backroads to get here and back and has somewhat of a railroad theme, including following the bits and pieces of original alignment of the Great Northern RR, now converted to rails to trails and just actual roads. Day 2 was 84 mi and mirrors a good part of the later/current realignment, as well as following the Old Fort Steele Trail, which is a pretty rough and tumble jeep track. I'm happy to say that I'm still able to pull off this overly ambitious route at 54, although I'm definitely still feeling it mid-week.
Happy birthday. An excellent way and place to celebrate it.
Happy Belated!
Sounds like a great way to get away on your birthday.
even at your age :-)

A Lord of the Rings meme. Galadriel says, "You have seen Sauron." Frodo replies, "Yes." They each look at each other silently, then Galadriel says, "He's weirdly sexy, right?" and Frodo responds, "Oh my god. Thank you. Yes. I thought I was the only one."

Does it come with garlic sauce? It covers for a lot of poor quality meats.
Everyone tried to tell him it was too big.

A rocky sphere of a planet hovers like a balloon in a bright yellow sky. The planet is tethered to a small booth with a window, like those guard stations you see in parks. A path leads up to the booth, and is then blocked by a barricade. The booth sits in the middle of a green meadow. Someone is dimly visible in the window. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

The jalapeno one is sublime...
Probably repeating myself, but, if you're ever in the Baton Rouge area or traveling along I-10 in Louisiana (it's south of Lafayette), taking the tour of the Avery Island salt dome where they used to grow all the peppers and mine the salt for Tabasco is super cool . . . if you're into that kind of thing (and if you are, scheduling the guided tour is worth it). The last time I was there they still grew all the seed stock for their peppers on-site! It's a semi-protected bird sanctuary now with lots of wildlife, too, and if you go there from Baton Rouge you get to drive across the Atchafalya river/basin, a pretty unique area . . . which one day will be the new path of the Mississippi (possibly in our lifetimes).
It's kind of surreal seeing Avery Island rise from the delta like a low bubble as one gets closer.

The image is an artistic rendering of a bicycle, where two rolls of masking tape exist as the wheels and one of the rules of masking tape has some tape coming out of it, forming the front fork of the bicycle, and the rest of the bicycle is painted in white on a black background.
That's so well done.
@poorusher If I was in front of the actual art, I would be there for hours.

When I was young I used to love these magazines from second-tier publishers or for professional specialties because the covers were always fascinating to stare at. Then I'd open them up and the contents were usually bollocks to a little kid who could barely read. Still ended up setting me on my life's path, though.
Oh man, this is so good
How was an illustration like this accomplished in 1966? Rulers, ink, and color separations, I presume?
