A modded New Vegas screenshot, showing a woman standing casually against a billboard. She wears a long black vest, black trousers, and a white sleeveless tee. Her hair is swept back with a headband and she wears dark glasses. The billboard advertises the Big Ranch Nevada State Lotto Billboard, depicting a line of women in party frocks excitedly watching a woman wearing pasties, short shorts and cowboy boots riding a hobby horse. It's a very lesbian advertisement.
A modded New Vegas screenshot, showing a line of transmission towards along the side of an old road. The one closest to the viewer has snapped in the middle and toppled onto the tarmac. It looks like someone bent at the waist but still keeping their arms up. The distant sun projects its shadow toward the viewer.

2. This child Jesus, when five years old, was playing in the ford of a mountain stream; and He collected the flowing waters into pools, and made them clear immediately, and by a word alone He made them obey Him. And having made some soft clay, He fashioned out of it twelve sparrows. And it was the Sabbath when He did these things. And there were also many other children playing with Him. And a certain Jew, seeing what Jesus was doing, playing on the Sabbath, went off immediately, and said to his father Joseph: Behold, thy son is at the stream, and has taken clay, and made of it twelve birds, and has profaned the Sabbath. And Joseph, coming to the place and seeing, cried out to Him, saying: Wherefore doest thou on the Sabbath what it is not lawful to do? And Jesus clapped His hands, and cried out to the sparrows, and said to them: Off you go! And the sparrows flew, and went off crying. And the Jews seeing this were amazed, and went away and reported to their chief men what they had seen Jesus doing.

A range of menus Fallen London players can use to define how the game defines their character, reading as follows: Refine the matter of your reputation What are you best known for? This will change part of how you are described in your player profile. Refine the gestalt of your identity What do they see, when they look at you? This will change the noun used to describe your character on the profile page, as well as how some characters in the game refer to your character. Choose your profile page header Where are you usually found? This will change the image displayed at the top of your profile page. Choose your cameo frame A little more personality to how you are portrayed. This will change the frame around your character's cameo on the profile page. Unhide your term of address This will show your term of address – currently 'Si-, er, Mad-, er, yes' – on your profile page once again. Alter your pronouns This will change which pronouns may be used to refer to your character; at present, nothing in-game uses these – but that may change in the future. You may also want to change the nouns used to refer to your character.

The top row are Chappell Roan's The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, Phoebe Bridgers' Punisher, Arlo Parks' Collapsed in Sunbeams, The Waterboys' This Is the Sea, and Mae Martin's I'm A TV. I considered listing the rest but I actually cannot make out some of them. The icons are small and I don't have my glasses on.
