mine eyes? seeing the glory.
the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored? trampled.
the faithful lighting of his terrible swift sword? buddy, you better believe that's loosed.

PANEL 1: MATTIE is sitting on a park bench. The IMPORTANT PUNDIT is running over, pointing off-panel.
PUNDIT: Hey! Hey You! HEY! YOU!
PUNDIT: Do you CONDEMN the actions of that guy over there?

PANEL 2: MATTIE strains to look where the PUNDIT was looking, who holds two photographs in her line of sight.
MATTIE: Well, I can't really see what he's even doing, so–
PUNDIT: YOU DON'T CONDEMN?! Even though I'm holding a picture of YOU and a picture of HIM next to each other?

PANEL 3: MATTIE, shrugging. The PUNDIT yells off-panel.
MATTIE: You didn't even say what he's DOING–
PUNDIT: HEY EVERYONE!!!
PUNDIT: SHE DOESN'T CONDEMN! SHE'S NOT CONDEMNING!

PANEL 4: A crowd gathers at the front of the panel, surrounding MATTIE. The pundit turns, arms crossed.
PERSON 1: What?! Wow.
PERSON 2: That's craaaaazy
PERSON 3: Is she sure

Commentary by Petr HorΓ‘le -
Last night was incredible. I have just moved to Sweden, where I organize astrophotography workshop for a group, and this is the view of nature offered over SuotojΓ€rvi Lake. The comet C/2025 A6 Lemmon was seemingly swimming in bright Aurora Borealis. The comet was so bright that we could see it with our naked eyes, even very low over the horizon. Captured after 20:30 UTC, Used Nikon Z6III, Nikkor 135mm, f1.8, ISO 3200, 4s exposure foreground, 15x4s comet from tripod (stacked).

The Day The Browns Crafted A Playbook Entirely Out Of Spite | Defector No pass attempts. Punting on third down. Cleveland had a point to prove.

Love historical stuff like this, the last time a team didn't pass all day.

I think I spent around 1k back in 2009, and my brain and arms appreciated every cent after I low sided and nearly rolled off a mountain. Of course, it was the one time I was in jeans instead of leathers, but I never made that mistake again!

Are you like me and struggle to choose colors for your charts?
I recently found the colorspace package, and it's a total game-changer.
cran.r-project.org/web/packages...

Load the package, run 'pal<-choose_palette()' and a GUI shows you color combos! Check out my example with #TidyTuesday data:
