Poorly shot #BirbyCrap / #BoobyCrap for @…. Note the lone birb on the lower right hand rock - this booby represents me.

Photo of a large Sula dactylatra tasmani colony on an island/peninsula. The island or peninsula is a large basalt blob surrounded by black cliffs, with the top covered in lush grass and the odd shrubbery. The grassy areas are where the birds are nesting, many in obvious pairs. At the top in the background is Mutton Bird Island, which is also part of the same colony, although it is too far away for birds to be visible. At lower right is a rocky promontory of the mainland, with a single anti-soci…

So to let me explain, this is a Very Normal Typesetting task for a book. Make two column text, with an embedded figure. Keep the baseline rhythm uniform. That means the two columns next to each other will always have the same baselines.
Make the figure full column width.
Until this became available, I could not find a way to do this. It's a subtle reason that multicolumn layouts for text on the web never really took off. (horizontal scrolling and snapping is perhaps another reason, but the fact that it looked like crap is part of it.)
I've been hand-solving variations using context-specific hacks for my whole career: text under e-commerce product cards. Images on a product page with a caption with text next to them that don't have funky gaps where the text goes underneath. Images with captions inset in text, too. Marketing pages with two bits of copy next to each other.
Lack of little nuances like this is why the whole web lands on "well I guess we'll set it in 16 pixel Helvetica with one line margins between paragraphs”. It stifles making anything but Browser Default Text or variations on it look good.
Remember how fresh Medium looked when it came out? Even its relatively small shake-up of the dominant formula felt good. Of course now, big easy to read serifed type in a single column is the brand of "this is a newsletter”

Signature moves for judgment on the pleadings on Kohler's design patent infringement claims, arguing that: 1) at least some of the accused products are plainly dissimilar from the claimed designs; and 2) at least some of the accused products were sold or offered for sale long before Kohler applied for at least some of the design patents-in-suit:

From the motion: "Kohler presents no plausible basis for how Signature’s accused design with a flat and square escutcheon could infringe the ’752 patent, which expressly adds the arched escutcheon limitation to the claimed design. A simple comparison of the asserted claim (on the left with the escutcheon emphasized in red) with the accused designs, (center and right) illustrates this point"
From the motion: "The ʼ988 patent (pictured left and center) also expressly requires a pitched escutcheon whereas the Accused ʼ988 Faucet (on the right) has a flat escutcheon:
Complaint, Ex. C (annotated) (left and center); Complaint ¶ 60 (right). There is no allegation or plausible explanation recited in the complaint for how the accused flat escutcheon meets the asserted design patent claims"
From the motion: "the horizontal portion has a substantially and noticeably larger diameter than that of the vertical portion"
