A screenshot of an 8:15 p.m. text from my father advising that the 1991 film What About Bob? is on Channel 30. The message has been "loved."
Edwin Landseer's 1864 oil painting "Man Proposes, God Disposes" shows a grim arctic landscape, painted on a wide rectangular canvas.The piece is diagonally divided in two by the remains of a ship's mast. On either side, two polar bears engage in an ominous play of sorts. To the right, one bear is munching on a rib, appearing wholly satisfied with its grotesque banquet. Just before the bear lays the remainder of a human rib cage, opened wide like a hideous flower. To the left, the second bear is fiercely tearing apart the ship's sail, its body creating a line perpendicular to the mast. On its left, a telescope lays abandoned on the cold snow. The viewer's gaze is drawn through the space by the two lines, and only upon a second glance does one notice the other eerie details. The icy desolation surrounding the main scene appears cruel and cold, with giant icebergs composed of sharp edges and firm outlines, immersed in a faint light. The rest of the image is filled by the dreary palette of the arctic gloom that surrounds the grizzly scene of the polar bears' delight, partially hidden by ice and the remains of the shipwreck.

In this screenshot from the 1993 film Fire In The Sky, a man leans over the corpse of another man. They are both underneath a glowing diaphonous membrane. The living man holds his hands in messy claws, having accidentally just plunged inside the rotten, collapsed abdomen of the dead man.

A photograph of a copy of thd beloved PlayStation RPG ARC SYMPHONY. The game is inside a jewel case resting on a beige patterned comforter. The box art for the game featured a zeppelin with masts and propellers flying over a violet ocean under a peach-colored twilight sky. The title appears in both English and Japanese in a stylized font. Text at the top of the cover indicates that there are several language options supported. The boxy red-and-white AETHER INTERACTIVE logo appears in the lower right corner of the manual cover. The PlayStation logo and an ESRB rating logo of "T For Teen" appears in a vertical black bar near the left side of the case.

A screenshot of the home page of the YouTube app. Instead of there being videos I might want to watch, the app is displaying, first, a sponsored ad and, second, a promoted video. The videos are identical, because the slop du jour today is a Verizon mobile ad recycling notoriously difficult Canadian comedian Mike Myers as Dr. Evil, about 25 years too late for relevancy. It's also new footage, meaning it's old Mike Myers in the Dr. Evil makeup, so there's an uncanny plasticene appearance to his skin. Overall, it's a thoroughly unpleasant experience putting me off wanting to use the YouTube app, which already has the habit of foisting slop onto me that desktop YouTube doesn't.
A pair of restrooms from a rural barbecue restaurant with what could be described as a "ramshackle" aesthetic. The single-occupant restrooms – which are offered at the restaurant in addition to two larger, multi-occupant gendered restrooms – are labelled "HER'N" and "HIS'N" respectively, and both adorned with woodcut pigs presenting their backsides. An ole-timey looking grandfather clocks sits between the two doors.

Actress Helen Slater demonstrates her "Florida Woman" take on DC superheroine Supergirl flying over a period-accurate Popeyes Famous Fried Chicken & Biscuits restaurant as seen in a titular scene in Supergirl (1984).
A screenshot from 1990s-era Saturday Night Live featuring Chris Farley in a beige suit and dark tie interviewing actor Jeff Daniels, who is seated beside him on a couch and wearing a navy jacket and a teal t-shirt. This is a screenshot from a sketch in which Chris Farley would ask famous people incredibly basic and simplistic interview questions, such as when he asked Paul McCartney, "Do you remember when you were in the Beatles?" Blocky meme text in impact font appears on the top and bottom of the image, reading, "Doesn't anybody ever know? That the world's a subway, subway!"

A serious black-and-white photograph of the (lamentably) late food and travel writer/documentarian, Chef Anthony Bourdain, in a stylish seated pose. There is a text overlay over the photograph featuring Bourdain's famous quote in which he asserts that any reasonable person would have wanted to beat the former (and, welcomely, late) U.S. Secretary Of State Henry Kissinger to death for being the architect of war crimes committed in Cambodia by the Nixon Administration. The quote has been edited to instead read, "Once you've learned about the Altamont Free Concert, you'll never stop wanting to beat The Roling Stones to death with your bare hands."

A photograph of the western sky approaching sunset. A dark blue smear of clouds covers the horizon, and the sun appears to be sinking into it, shining like a fading beacon. Lighter opalescent skies above, with scattered shots of clouds. A country highway cutting diagonally from right to left across the verdent cloud-shadowed foreground, the road reaching toward a vanishing point under an overpass. Farmland on the right side of the road, boundaried near the horizon by parallel lines of trees and powerlines. A single dark pickup truck on the highway, brakelights glowing red.

A screenshot from the ending of the 2021 film Don't Look Up featuring Leonardo DiCaprio sitting at a kitchen table, preparing himself for the end of everything, looking down at his folded hands. Burnt-in subtitles show that he is opining, wistfully, "We really did have everything, didn't we?"

An animated GIF from The Simpsons featuring an exchange between Homer Simpson and Bart's blue-haired friend, Milhouse Van Houten. In the sequence, Milhouse is shown crawling out of a disgusting arrangement of mattresses dubbed "Fort Adventure" by Homer via a crudely-painted sign. Milhouse rubs his nose and comments, "It smells funny in there," to which Homer blithely replies, "No, it doesn't."

A photograph of an older model Samsung phone. A note file is open to provide a blank background so that the screen burn-in from her years of playing Bubble Witch games is more visible. The screen is tinted pink, probably again from burn-in. Slightly darker diagonal bars can also be seen on the screen; my phone's camera could perceive her phone's screen's refresh rate.

A screenshot of a 7:00 p.m. March 13, 2022 Twitter post by Philipp Kostelecky (@CheeseCakePCK). The post reads: "My favourite kid I ever taught when I was a swim teacher was this little four-year-old Italian boy. One time he sneezed and nobody said anything so he just went, 'What? No 'bless you's' for Giacomo?'"

A screenshot from The Simpsons featuring a Ralph Wiggum sitting at his desk at school, proudly announcing, "Oh, boy! Sleep! That's where I'm a Viking!" This turn of phrase indicates that Ralph approaches sleeping with the enthusiasm of a Viking.

A scan of the "Game Program Instructions" for the ATARI 2600 Imagic-published game Dragonfire. The image includes a story for the game set underneath a psychedelic painting of a yellow-throated green dragon with red spikes. It's belching a jet of flame and billowing smoke. A series of increasingly smaller colored bars appears over the image, running the colors of the rainbow from red to purple. The Imagic logo appears over these bars, and "Dragonfire" is written in a stylized black font over the red bar. The game's story is written as follows: Dragons have driven the Royal Court from the Castle, "○ we are lost, lost!'" laments the King. "Without our vast treasures we cannot raise an army 'gainst these accursed dragons. Our Kingdom must now languish under lizards!"' "'Nay, not so, my liegel" replied the young Prince. "None knows that Castle, those many bridaes and storerooms, better than I. Give me leave and 1 shall loot those lizards of their plunder and restore my lord to his birthright."" "Brave boy." said the King, fully pleased. "'But,"' he added darkly, "'beware dread dragonfirel"'

A screenshot from the 1981 film The Road Warrior, the sequel to Mad Max. The screenshot depicts a roadway through a desolate wasteland. A derelict truck hauling junk rests on the shoulder of the road, trash strewn across the asphalt. The character Max is walking away from the camera carrying a jerry can to salvage fuel. Max's "Black On Black" V8 Interceptor is parked in the foreground. A sign reads "Mundi Mundi Look Out."
A white-on-red text banner approximating the style of the English title logo for the 2016-2025 anime My Hero Academia, except it says My Hero Anhedonia instead.
A promotional still from the 1983 film Psycho II depicting actress Meg Tilly cradling actor Anthony Perkins against her bosom. The composition of their pose is reminiscent of religious iconography. They're together in a half-lit room, with a shadows cast in a strange angles in the background.
A photograph of a blush of light pinkish-purple crocuses with golden saffron stigmata springing up out of winter grass. A sheaf of vibrant green wild onion stalks is also shooting up through the snow-flattened winter ground behind them. The plants are wreathed in dead leaves.
A Web 2.0-era demotivational poster meme featuring a 2010 photograph of a wedding gown-bedecked Chelsea Clinton being walked down the wedding aisle by an aging Bill Clinton. The photograph is set in a black frame and subtitled with white text that reads, "When you see it, you'll shit bricks." Bill and Chelsea are flanked by well-dressed wedding guests. Among the guests on the right, notorious sex criminal Ghislaine "Gizmo" Maxwell can be seen leering.
A screenshot from the 1994 Disney animated classic, The Lion King. The screenshot features the visage of the lion Mufasa, speaking from the afterlife, wreathed in a ring of glowing clouds. In a stylized, translucent font, text over the image reads, "Remember where you parked your car..." – as if these are the deceased Mufasa's final parting words of wisdom.
An image of white text on black that reads, "Fellas, what's stopping you from sauntering up to a lady, flicking the tip of your hat, rolling a cigarette one-handed, using a mouse's tongue to seal the paper, tossing the cigarette into the air, spinning your pistol before shooting the cigarette to light it, catching the cigarette in your mouth and smoking the entire thing in one inhale, and then tossing it aside to exhale a cloud of smoke that forms the word "HOWDY" as it dissipates?" This is a description of what happens in the quote-posted video, which is a scene from a Tom & Jerry cartoon.

A screenshot from The Simpsons featuring Mr. Burns and Smithers seated next to one another at a table in a banquet room. Burns is delivering an angry edict to Smithers, who looks back in shock. Subtitle text reads, "Have Die Antwoord killed."
A screenshot from a News Nation video on YouTube depicting a map of the United States of America labelled "Alien Abduction Hotspots." Five states are highlighted – Oregon, Idaho, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine – and each also shows (presumably) the percentage of the total reported UFO abductions that have happened there, along with the "1 in x" odds of any given reported abduction having happened there: 1.68% or 1 in 60 for Oregon; 1.90% or 1 in 53 for Idaho; 1.79% or 1 in 56 for Vermont; 2.00% or 1 in 50 for New Hampshire; and 1.78% or 1 in 56 for Maine. A chyron at the bottom of the screen states: "ALIENS AMONG US? IS YOUR STATE A HOTSPOT FOR UFOs?"
An animated GIF from the Nintendo 3DS game The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time 3D, also known as Zelda 64 For 2DS. The GIF depicts a tranquil scene at the Sleepless Waterfall, an area of the game where not a lot of time gets spent. Twisting ribbons of land wind in front of a brisk waterfall at the back of a small canyon bedecked with plants clinging to the rocky walls. The scene appears pristine and primeval.
A cropped screenshot from the Letterboxd app of my "Recent Activity." Displayed is little movie poster for Witchboard (1986), along with my rating for this film: four stars (out of five).
A screenshot from Tommy Wiseau's 2003 film The Room. In the scene, Lisa's mother, Carolyn, is sharing with her daughter that she "got the results of the test back" and that she "definitely has breast cancer." The inclusion of this story beat is baffling because it is never referenced again in the film.

The "You wouldn't steal a car" portion of the Motion Picture Association of America's 2004 "Piracy: It's A Crime" ad campaign commercial, edited to read instead, "You wouldn't suplex a train." White "punk rock" font against a mostly dark glitched background.
A photograph of one of the so-called Toynbee Tiles, one of hundreds of "messages of unknown origin found embedded in the asphalt of streets in about two dozen major cities in the United States and three South American cities" (Wikipedia). The tile in this image is a rectangular block of red stylized text on a white background surround by a double-border of blue (interior) and red (exterior). Smaller off-white rectangles of dark illegible text appear above and below the tile. Asphalt surround the painted image. The tile reads: TOYNBEE IDEA IN MOViE `2001 RESURRECT DEAD ON PLANET JUPiTER
A screenshot from the 1993 cartoon Adventures Of Sonic The Hedgehog featuring the titular blue SEGA mascot bursting through an orange wall that reads "Sonic Says" in blocky blue letters. Sonic is giving an exaggerated thumbs-up to the viewer and is also winking at them chummily. Sonic's buddy, Miles "Tails" Prower, a two-tailed fox, is standing near the wall holding a bucket of blue paint , and Sonic is holding a paintbrush dipped in the blue paint, having just fixed Tails' spelling mistake - "sez" instead of "says" - on the sign. The pair are standing in an abstract space where the ground looks like a blueprint and the sky is a wash of green nebulae. "Sonic Sez/Says" was the 30-second educational public service announcement (PSA) that was mandated by law to appear at the end of most cartoons from this time period. It's implied that the text of the quoted post below is today's PSA.

An infamous photograph of kitschy pop culture icons, the McCrary Twins – Billy Leon and Benny Loyd – dubbed by the Guinness Book Of World Records and Ripley's Believe It Or Not! as "The World's Fattest Twins" in the 1970s. In the black-and-white photograph, the men of considerable carriage are perched side-by-side on twin motorcycles, both wearing matching cowboy hats, loud checkered pants, plain dark button-up shirts, and wild long hair and beards typical of the "outlaw country" aesthetic. They both have exuberant smiles on their faces.
A screenshot of a panel from a Chick Tract featuring a silhouette of Jesus facing a crowd of angry people from Biblical Times, one of whom is saying, "SHUT UP!" Narrative panels on the comic state, "Most people rejected His message. They hated Jesus because he told them the truth. Galatians 4:16."
A screenshot from the 1982 animated film The Secret Of NIMH. Pictured is a mostly-melted candle in a holder being lit by a taper. The lit taper and candle flame are bright against a dark but warmly-painted background, featuring a book, inkwell, and bottle covered in cobwebs.
