Looking for love in Twitter’s #botland? Here are this week’s beautiful bots:

Wanna sext, but got writer’s block? Why not consult @wikisext for some inspiration! Though now sadly inactive (after a stint over on Mastodon), @wikisext drew on source material from Wikihow to create the most fabulously ridiculous sexts.
The Benevolent

Watch the English lexicon evolve by following @NYT_first_said: @NYT_first_said tracks when the New York Times publishes a word for the first time in its history. An amusing ecosystem of other bots has developed around @NYT_first_said, including @NYT_said_where, which links to the articles the featured word appeared in, and @seen_it_news, which attempts to one-up @NYT_first_said by finding older uses of featured words in other newspapers.
The Sublime

Equal parts calming and enchanting, @softlandscapes creates ethereal, procedurally generated landscapes painted in a muted color palette. Lose yourself in its low contrast and gentle contours.
