Screen recording from the Cheep Cheep Falls course in Mario Kart World, in which the only allowable item is Kamek. As the player repeatedly changes into different NPC Mario characters, the track is littered with swoops, spiky balls, chain chomps, and more.

Frame 1, 2, 3: A kid is handed a ps3 at a game store, pays for it with cash, then runs out the store 4, 5, 6: at home, kid hugs the ps3 box, then opens it and starts tossing things behind him from inside. The items include a bowling ball, a dildo, and a booklet. 7, 8, 9: slobbering, he runs with the ps3 on his outstretched hands. Sits down, notices the ps3 says “open me,” reaches toward it. In the final frame, a boxing glove on a spring has popped out of the now-open ps3, punching the kid in the face!
Expanded screenshot from this gamefaqs walkthrough, reads as follows: 3-2. FAQ USAGE Though you can use this walkthrough for your own personal use, don't use ANY PART of this document in your own work without crediting where you got those parts from. For example, "DWA says in his Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble Guide, 'G" is for "glitched"!'" would be an acceptable means of giving me proper credit without plagiarizing my work.

My relationship with my physical self isn't something that’s been “solved.” It’s not a binary switch, one alternating between “fixed” and “broken.” It’s a winding road, with months of good days and the occasional strings of bad ones. But whenever I have one of those bad days, a new coping mechanism has formed — except this time, it’s not one built with the goal of deflecting harm. It’s a reminder to love, an affirmation built to reinforce not what I need to lose but instead, what I have gained.

A pulp western cover showing half a guy’s face in the foreground with a female-presenting person wearing a cowboy hat in the background looking surprised. The text has been replaced to say, in small yellow type at the top, “on August 9th, at Riley’s Tavern…” and below that, in larger text, “ROLLFAST RAMBLERS!” And below that, with quotation marks around it, “Western swing from Austin, Tx!”
Collage with a vaguely city theme, made up of random images of things that either are, or look like buildings, along with pictures of Hugh jackman: his giant head floating over a building, a smaller, but still giant, version of him standing over more buildings, and a very small cutout of him on that one’s back.

A blurry picture with a cutout bit that's vaguely shaped like half a pill turned on its end at the top, inside of which is a less blurry part of the photo, showing an amorphous, greenish-brown and copper-colored blob emerging from a hole in a white, shadowy surface.

From an article in which OpenAI announces it has purchased a media company: “As I've been thinking about the future of how we communicate at OpenAl, one thing that's become clear is that the standard communications playbook just doesn't apply to us. We're not a typical company. We're driving a really big technological shift. And with our mission to ensure artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity comes a responsibility to help create a space for a real, constructive conversation about the changes Al creates—with builders and people using the technology at the center.”
A frame from the animated series Primal, showing the main character aver he has been mutated into a giant, blue, Hulk-like monster and is clearly enraged. The drawing is full of thick, black lines, with only simple shading hinted at with the inking and a band of bright skin around the top edge of his body. Behind him, a matte painting of a cliffside is lit up in a bright-to-dark orange gradient against a darkening evening sky.
