Hello there my loves. It’s Wednesday and your old pal Brian has cooked up a batch of mid-week Quickies, just for you. Lots of great links this week, sent in by some of my favorite people. Let’s?

What’s this? Leonardo da Vinci’s actual living relatives have been found? Am… am I one? Are you? -Via Amy
We’re a bit late to the game on this one but Twitter (for iOS and Android native apps) now supports alternate text for images that makes content more accessible to people who are blind or visually impaired. -Via Beth
Here is the spaceship sounds white noise generator that you requested (I already had this app and it’s great). -Via Jim
Well this is what I wish I was spending the rest of my life making – Miniature treehouse sculptures by Jedediah Voltz.
