Screenshot of a game "Epic Furious" (a retro pixel style JRPG). It shows a dialog open of Theo Von talking to the main character (Donald Trump) saying "Lets roll, bro. I'm the press now. All of it.
A “metro board” standing upright on a counter. It is a wooden framed sheet of metal with LEDs and black lines laid out like the NYC subway map. Each LED represents a station in the system and is lit up when a train is currently in the station.
A three panel comic with Shen, the “protagonist”, and a generic other character. Shen has a huge head with bulging veins (implying a huge brain) and says “I’ve taken a controversial new pill that accelerates my brain”. The other character asks “So you’re smart now?” Shen with a menacing expression on his face replies “I’m stupid faster. “
Meme of a stick figure raising their finger as if to object and then closing their mouth and lowering finger as if to reconsider agreeing because like is consumerism the solution it shouldn’t be but like it worked in this situation. It’s as if society is complex and capitalism has co-opted markets when markets are not mutually exclusive from socialism but OP made a funny joke and going down this path is maybe a bit much, definitely patronizing.
Two cats, a tabby and a gray one, cuddled up with the gray cat laying on top of the tabby cheek to cheek
A list of “top 20 most dangerous college campuses”. #1 is Texas A&M and #2 is Cal Berkeley. The rest of the list is irrelevant because it’s so stupid
Steve, awkwardly squished against a door frame in a cramped kitchen during an apartment party. He’s smiling but he’s not having fun, his eyes are begging for relief.
Screencap of the previous skeet I embedded (from Erin Reed noting the cellular outage) showing my iPhone UI at 2:14pm EST having WiFi but zero bars of cellular service (with the SOS symbol indicating no cell service, satellite emergency only)

Two ESPN push notifications. The first (bottom) titled “WHAT. JUST. HAPPENED.” saying “No. 3 Texas A&M scores 28 unanswered in second half vs. South Carolina to secure largest comeback win in school history” The second saying “Texas A&M says a state trooper who made contact with South Carolina players on Saturday has been relieved of duties”
The Dr. Manhattan "It is 1985" meme but with the text: "It is July 2025 and D Leadership cave to Republican pressure insisting they'll be in a better position to negotiate in November" "Democrats sweep every special and regular election in November 2025 with an unprecedented wave of voter anger at Republicans" "It is November 2025 and D Leadership cave to Republican pressure insisting they'll be in a better position to negotiate in January"
Selfie of me, awkwardly sticking my tongue out throwing up "the deuces" wearing a "Queens Votes Early" sticker standing in front of the Museum of the Moving Image with a line wrapped around the building of voters waiting to get in and vote early.

The famously sad Fyre Festival boxed lunch including a wilted lettuce and tomato “salad”, two slices of un-toasted wheat bread, and two slices of white cheese. They’re spread haphazardly on a white styrofoam meal container. You could be forgiven for assuming this was a meal at a FEMA camp and not a $1,000+ destination “music festival” in the Caribbean.
Screenshot of a skeet from Chuck Schumer (@schumer.senate.gov) that reads: “Republicans' cruel crusade against trans kids is all an attempt to divert attention from ripping healthcare away from millions of Americans. We'll keep fighting and we'll keep marching on.”

An iOS system notification for LinkedIn. The body text reads “Learn more about W3Schools.com and discover other Pages you might be interested in following”. If you’re not a web developer you should understand all my homies hate w3schools.com
A still frame of the crowd from the original video, with a small portion in the upper right circled in red implying that is where I am in the crowd. The half-joke is you can’t make out any details of any human it’s all a blob. It is relatively where I was sitting, though. Unless I’m very wrong about Sam’s angle in which case everything is made up and the points don’t matter.
The infamous meme where in a man wearing a shirt that says “Sickos” has his hands and face pressed up against the exterior of a living room window staring in with a perverted, creepy smile laughing and saying “Yes… ha ha ha… YES!”
Screenshot of this very thread showing Danilo tempt Keith with 3d printers like a drug dealer and my girlfriend responding “fuck do we need a 3d printer when we have a house”. This clearly makes Danilo culpable for my eventual financial distress.

A giant pot of gumbo, deliciously brown and at a rolling boil
Very dark very thick roux in a cast iron pan. The thickness is shown by a wooden spoon scraping a line down the middle like Moses parting the Red Sea and clearly it hasn’t flown to fill the hole back in. I’m very proud of this roux.
A metal ornament that is a picture frame shaped like a hide. “Our Family 2015” is written across the roof. In the frame is a low res black and white group photo of the BrooklynJS, ManhattanJS, and QueensJS tech meetup organizers.

Cat sleeping on folded sheets on a pink recliner chair, in front of a window with a nice city view. Very demure.
A passage in a book with a particularly funny line (to modern sensibilities) highlighted. The relevant text reads: Thomas asked Dolgan, “What place is this?” The dwarf puffed on his pipe. “It is a glory hole, laddie…”
Fairly odd parents 2 panel meme where the dad shouts “this is where I’d show my balcony… if I had one”
An elevator door and another door with signs on each of them
