Love it!

Speaks to the human need for genuine connection. By doing these sorts of activities, we help reinforce the fabric the binds all of us to each other.

We need more things like this that allow us to simply be “humans” together.

Vouched for this, b/c it was flagged? I found it interesting, at least, so thanks for posting it.

Might have been better to just link to the Reddit thread (https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/aggom4/my_mom_painted...), but perhaps Twitter's ability to inline the images might make it easier to read.

Also, don't miss the webapp DAG that someone made showing the tree of paintings: http://nubleh.github.io/i_painted/

Edit: and it's [flagged][dead] again. Can someone care to say why flagging this is more appropriate than just not upvoting it? (Edit edit: It's alive again.)

Awfully clickbaity title

Alternative: Redditors form a chain painting Art

As the one who posted the link, I should explain that given twitter threads have no title, I simply copied the first line of the first tweet as the title. I see your point, though.
Regarding the recent discussion about how the Internet isn't weird or fun anymore, this is definitely a valid counterexample.
There was a big HN thread yesterday about how the internet isn't weird anymore, and yet here we are.
Could use some Escher. Why the flagging.
Happened* this is from last week
