A picture of a Kingdom Hearts 3 pause screen during a cutscene. All that is seen is a bumpy rock with two hands overtop, fingers curled in as if to spread REDACTED open. The pause UI asks if you want to continue or skip the scene.
Lo, in front of a leafy green hedge, with silver hair. Their signature triangle shades reflect the light. They are wearing a Ukrainian traditional vyshyvanka, golden Ukrainian tryzub, and a Ukrainian golden wheat stalk earring. They have been norted.
A selfie of Lo, tattooed arm visible, with their ringed hand resting on their mouth in a very pondering kind of gesture. They have their signature thrifted black triangle shades on, an opal skull charm hanging off a necklace, and a thrifted white textured jacket on. Their hair is icy grey-ash, with lilac on the sides, and flopped to one side revealing a silver pyramid stud in their right ear.
A photo from a light up balcony at Twilight. on the arm rest of an outdoor couch rests an empty water bottle, its most recent contents still dotted like constellations inside. In the mouth of the bottle sits an ice cream cone, half eaten. Strawberry stracciatella fills the base, with a small hat of toasted coconut, walnut caramel, and whiskey sits atop the crown. It is stable, hands free, and effervescent.
A map showing Increased Radiation Dose Across Europe on May 3rd 1986. Chornobyl is marked in black, the highest level, with red circles moving west getting lighter and lighter. Moscow and Russia drop off very quickly oddly enough.
Picture of Saint Javelin’s post on X: Bloomberg just dropped the Orbán tapes and it reads like a bad fanfic. Hungary’s prime minister spent a phone call with Putin calling him a “lion”, casting himself as the helpful little “mouse,” offering Budapest as a venue to end the war on Russia’s terms, and closing with “I am at your service.” Photo of the Bloomberg headline reads: Politics Orban Offered to Be ‘Mouse’ Helping Russian ‘Lion’ in Putin Call
Photo of a brown/black tabby cat laying on his back with his white paws over his face. The smallest little pink nose is visible beneath them.
Screenshot of bullet pointed text: Yoko comments that he died a lot as he couldn't get used to the unconventional "memorize to evade" portion of the game. He respects the players for continuing to play despite "being slammed down into a messed up hellhole and make them do something about it. It made me think that it was a type of social experiment." Yoshida: "Well, they start to get used it over time."Yoko Taro: "What kind of human are you trying to birth?"
The Sun by Joseph Vinyl album cover (strong white border with white cursive text “The Sun” overtop of the faces of the three band members with a dark background) with the vinyl 2/3s out of the sleeve. The vinyl itself is splotchy tie-die orange, as if it were truly made of the magma of our beloved star itself.
Family group chat: Message 1: picture of mother with her feet up under a blanket, a cat on her lap, dog looking on. The TV is showing the 2026 Olympic gold medal game between Canada and US, on the ottoman next to her is a laptop showing the same exact game. Message 2: from Mom “Everyone but Luna is watching!” Message 3: from Sister “Awwww babies! how come you are streaming from laptop? To get Canadian broadcast?” Message 4: from Mom “Yes. We don’t want to listen to the Americans talk”
Meme of Murray from 2019s 'The Joker' saying "you're goodbye-ing. The fire is slowly dying, and you're still goodbye-ing" referencing lyrics from the classic Christmas song 'Let it Snow'
Larysa stands facing the wind on the top of an old steamship, lake Rosseau behind them. They are in black lace suit pants, a green top, and a black blazer looking spiffy while holding a drink. They adjust their new black triangle sunglasses that give them a +10 to Charisma.

Two Mason jars decorated with woven cotton white ribbon, brown twine, and green hemp, and an assortment of paper greens and flowers in white, dusty rose, and a dark lavender. Hanging from the tied ribbons are two live-edge wood amulets, with handwritten calligraphy. The larger of the two says "Cook!" and had wooden cooking utensils inside, while the smaller one says "Eat!" with metal eating utensils inside. You get the sense that the creator is proud of them. They need this.
A screenshot of the Dovbush film's page on Letterboxrd. Shows the titular character with his merry gang of thieves who steal from the rich and give to the poor, a folklore hero in carpathian lore. 2023, directed by Oles Sanin.
OG Flintstones multivitamins and minerals
A rudimentary sketch of a blue plastic tarp tied to two branches staked in the ground, with the other side tied to lengths of rope that go nowhere. There are handwritten annotations: "ropes go off into air we will hide the ends in trees" "tied to big sticks in front" "blue woven plastic tarp (see reference images)" A giant title"Cook Tent" presides over the image in the top right corner.
Dexter's Laboratory meme, where girls fawn over him asking him to say it again, but instead of the regular "omelette du fromage" it reads "my vast entirely-offline MP3 library"
News Healine: "Cardinals set to meet after death of Pope Francis, plan for funeral"
Larysa holds a wax covered pysanka delicately between their fingers. Beneath the murky dark wax you can see white lines down the curvature of the egg, as well as teal vines, a purple flower, and a large swath of greens.
Twisting an almost complete pysanka (decorated egg) in their fingers, Larysa shows the sides of the egg, some almost completely covered in wax, the bright colours beneath the dark coat, like shadows in deep water. Complete and incomplete eggs lie in the background, resting on the paper covered table, encircled by grand jars of colorful ink.
A coffee table covered in wax blotted newspaper and cinema magazines, with a smattering of pysanky-making materials atop it. Two pysanky from the previous year sit in a small wooden beaded necklace, keeping them upright. The one on the left is a monochrome circular pattern, with various shades of blue dancing around a traditional diamond flower pattern in the center. The one on the right depicts a vinok (flower crown) floating on water, with a bright pink sky above, with Stika written in white. A handsome black tabby cat with galaxy green eyes looks on from a distance, while perched on top a teal blue L shape couch. He is loafing.
A small dirty scrap of white paper stuck to a dirty concrete shot corner, edges curled, reading "ELON'S A FAKE GAMER" in bold black sharpie
A bright pink stool proudly displays a guave cheesecake mochi donut from Third Culture, and a strawberry lychee match a latte, and the commemorative pink purse, in the shape of a wedge of dragonfruit, with green spikes. Larysa's legs are also at the bottom of the frame and a small little elephant in a lotus tattoo is visible on their ankle. This is important.
A street sign with the name Roxas, the inspiration behind the quote.
Larysa with pink in their hair (unseen in this image) is taking a selfie of them and 8 other game-devs, some old and some new friends, as they have taken over a boss's hotel room to pile in and watch the season finale of the acclaimed show Severance. Everyone is smiling because all are at the time of the taking of this picture, unaware of the pain that is about to be inflicted upon them. They are grateful for it. Praise kier.
Larysa, with pink in their hair, is smiling in Yerba Buena gardens with an old and new connection behind them (also both smiling) right after their co-founder messaged them to send them photos of them at the conference for the indie company's social media, and they realized that they hadn't taken a single one and the conference was ending the very next day.
