My apologies for the radio silence, everybody. The day job has been super busy the last several weeks. I am hoping to return to the regular schedule next week. In the meantime, enjoy this from xkcd.

I was up late watching the British general election. So forgive me for phoning this one in. But we have a great piece from xkcd that looks at those choropleth US state maps.

The National Spelling Bee was this week and Google produced a map of the words each state seeks the most help spelling goodly.
Naturally, there was a misspelling in their own graphic—unfortunately I do not have an image of that, but trust me they misspelled ninety as nintey in Maryland.
Wisconsin, you need help.

Well yesterday sucked.
But at least today is Friday. Also Cinco de Mayo. And so in addition to trying to find some mezcal tomorrow—anybody know a good spot in Philly?—we can wrap this week up with something on the humourous side.
My mobile is a few years old now and I’ve been taking lots of the photos the last few years. Last weekend I reached a point where I could no longer take photos. Consequently I have been going back through all my old photos. And so this piece from xkcd seemed rather appropriate.

I know I spent yesterday on the NFL Draft and that a lot of you would regard that as the lighthearted piece for the week. But trust me, here in Philly, it’s not so much. Just walk three blocks west from my flat.
So today we have another piece from This Is Indexed that looks at the creative process. And in my 8+ years of experience, this is nothing but true.

The skies have lots of birds. Here’s a graphic from xkcd to help you identify them all. Because it’s Friday.

With all this talk of new countries and political alignments. This piece from xkcd seemed appropriate for this Friday.

My apologies, everyone, I have been having technical difficulties this week. (Of all weeks, right?) Anyway, it’s Friday. We can save the 24 million fewer Americans insured under Trumpcare until next week, right?

Posting lighter-themed content on Fridays seems all the more important now. So here’s this Friday: a piece on box plots from xkcd.
