Rosie and I enjoying a quiet moment right before I went on stage and got the whole audience to drop an F-bomb :)
Six people stood playing a card game called Would Heu-Risk It? Five look at one man holding up one of his cards. There is a bug, duck and seagull character added to the photo.
Can you find Bug, Cosmo the Space Duck and Space Seagull?

Man with sign that says "Jane, Jane, Jane" alongside a screenshot of 3 Janes joining the TWiT virtual stage.

Today Jane x 3 joined us on stage on TWiT.
It was like the dude with the sign predicted the future.

Toy story meme, with woody feeling worried. Reads:
But I don't work with other testers
It's ok, we have the MoTaverse.

When you need the community to help, because you don't have a community of testers at work you can vibe off, it's ok. We've got the MoTaverse.

This is a four-panel comic titled "How to scare a tester." It humorously depicts a ghost attempting to scare a software tester.

Panel 1: The ghost says "Boo" to the tester, who remains unfazed.
Panel 2: The ghost tries again, saying "Boo," but the tester still does not react.
Panel 3: The ghost makes one more attempt, again saying "Boo," with no effect.
Panel 4: The ghost changes its approach and says, "YOU MUST BE ISTQB CERTIFIED!" The tester reacts in fear, shouting "AHHHH!!!"
The joke plays on the idea that software testers are not easily scared by typical ghostly tricks, but mentioning the ISTQB certification requirement (a well-known qualification in software testing) is genuinely terrifying for them.
