Screenshot of my feed where directly below this post featuring a smiling Obama is the famous picture of Trump looking up and pointing at a solar eclipse, positioned perfectly such that it looks like Trump is both jealous and giving Obama kudos.
There is no evidence to support the claim that 14 Americans are killed per day by foreigners or undocumented immigrants. This figure (which would equate to approximately 5,110 deaths per year) appears to be a variation of several widely circulated but unsubstantiated claims. Key findings from fact-checks and research include: • Lack of Supporting Data: There is no authoritative, nationwide database or government tally that tracks the specific number of U.S. citizens killed by "illegal aliens" or foreign nationals on a daily or annual basis 3 7 • Debunked Similar Figures: Fact-checkers have specifically debunked similar high-end claims, such as the assertion that 4,000 people are killed annually by undocumented immigrants, stating there is no evidence to suggest these numbers are accurate 2 • • Comparative Crime Rates: Peer-reviewed research and academic studies consistently find that undocumented immigrants have homicide rates that are equal to or lower than those of native- born U.S. citizens 4 5 • Broader Trends: Data from the American Immigration Council indicates that as the share of immigrants in the U.S. population increased between 1980 and 2022, the overall crime rate actually declined 1

A ChatGPT-generated diagram of what is supposed to be the heat exchange in a gas heater. Titled “Gas Gas Heater” Chat says “Here is a labeled diagram illustrating how a wall-mounted gas heater separates heat from exhaust using a sealed heat exchanger and flue system” In the diagram none of the pipes are connected and the labels are nonsense. Apparently the heat exchanger vents exhaust into the room in several places. Bottom right there’s a flame labeled “COMBUSTION GAGIES EXHAUST OUT” next to a label that says “combustion gagies to the otode” Other labels include “warm exchasger out” , “warm air fo warming”, “warm warming and” AI isn’t intelligent.

Screenshot from Wikipedia about the advisor to the bewitched King Theoden in Lord of a the Rings. Highlighted is “Once it was a man” towards the bottom of the paragraph. The Two Towers Gríma, son of Galmód, is at first a faithful servant, but he falls in league with the traitorous wizard Saruman, and from then on works to weaken King Théoden of Rohan and his kingdom through lies and persuasion, in his position as chief advisor to the King. Tolkien describes him as "a wizened figure of a man, with a pale wise face, and heavy lidded eyes", and a "long pale tongue". Gríma is widely disliked in Edoras; everyone except Théoden calls him "Wormtongue". In Old English wyrm means "serpent, snake, dragon", - and Gandalf repeatedly compares him to snake: The wise speak only of what they know, Gríma son of Gálmód. A witless worm have you become. Therefore be silent, and keep your forked tongue behind your teeth. I have not passed through fire and death to bandy crooked words with a serving-man till the lightning falls. See, Théoden, here is a snake! To slay it wold be just. But it was not always as it now is. *Once it was a man*, and it did you service in its fashion. Til Saruman had promised him Eowyn, the king's niece, as a reward for his services.!T " Her brother Éomer accuses him of "watching her under his lids and…
a close up jagged zig zag of banana curves against gray background space up until the bottom eighth of the frame where the background turns black. The shot is of the stub of a banana stem with the banana ripped off, framed by the heads of the remaining two bananas in the bunch in the foreground. The stub of the framed stem has some residual tendrils of oxidized banana remnants, which look like little tentacles or insect legs/antennae. The grey negative space forms a neat triangle in the top left corner, an angular “J” or fishhook shape curling left around the stem with a black triangle background behind left foreground banana, and another triangle along the bottom/middle right edge of the photo behind the rightward banana, which transitions from grey to black for the last quarter. Overall the image of two bananas is bizarre and angular and uncomfortably zoomed in. Some people would call this “artistic”. Some other people would tell me to shut up now.
A mobile screenshot of the Wikipedia page for “Japanese Water Spider”. Highlighted is the line “The only distinction between the two is that the Japanese water spider has larger genitalia.” An illustration below shows one spider on the surface and two underwater, partially inside their air bubbles. Full text of the paragraph reads: “The Japanese water spider (Argyroneta aquatica japonica) is a subspecies of the water spider. In Japanese it is called the mizugumo. The Japanese water spider is almost exactly like its European cousin. The only distinction between the two is that the Japanese water spider has larger genitalia. Like its cousin, the Japanese water spider lives under water by constructing diving bells, underwater spheres which contain oxygen, which they live in.
