Magnus as the keytarist for DEVO, rocking it out on-stage in a yellow jumpsuit, black gloves, and a glorious red energy dome up on his head.
Two men starting and revving an old Harley-Davidson that had just been taken off the back of a delivery truck.
Alt: A grainy found-footage still from 1996. The King in Yellow, a 12-foot-tall figure in decaying yellow brocade robes and a featureless pallid mask, stands in the midground of an endless Backrooms office maze. Grey cubicle partitions partially obscure his lower body, his trailing robe drags across the carpet behind him. Harsh fluorescent lights recede into infinite repetition above yellow-wallpapered pillars. Caption: PM 11:37:32 — MAY. 04 1996. The King in Yellow, observed between cubicle partitions in Level 0. Roughly 40 feet and closing.
A cyberdelic kaiju octopus with a translucent blue holographic brain pulsing at the crown of its skull rises from Tokyo Harbor, its body a wireframe of electric blue and neon magenta circuitry. Six tentacles each hoist a glowing information panel — Crawl Engine, Deep Search, Find Similar, Search Monitors, Observability, Security — each filled with readable technical copy in smaller type. Behind it, the Tokyo skyline layers traditional pagoda silhouettes against orange-lit Tokyo Tower and vertical neon kanji signs reading "Explore the Future" and "Cyber Search," all sunk in deep violet-black fog. Two small tour boats in the foreground water give the creature's scale away. The whole scene is framed in an ornate Art Nouveau circuit-board border of electric blue filigree, laid over a warm aged paper grain that cracks the holographic future with the wear of an old concert poster.

Gothic watercolor of Eva Green as Vanessa Ives in Penny Dreadful. She's looking over her shoulder to you. Her reflection in the mirror is different than how she actually looks. Darker. Demonic.
AI slop painting of the King in Yellow standing in front of Lake Hali in Carcosa. The gap in his mantle reveals that there is a cosmos where his body should be.
A black-and-white, hand-drawn illustration in a chaotic zine style. A worn, humanoid robot with exposed wires and a dented metal face sits at a cluttered workbench, typing on an old mechanical typewriter. Its expression looks vacant and slightly distressed. From the typewriter, a vertical plume of floating hexadecimal code (numbers and letters like “0xDEAD,” “0xBEEF”) rises into the air like smoke. The scene is filled with scribbled notes and labels: phrases like “RESPONSE MAY VARY,” “ALL THOUGHTS PRE-OWNED,” and “I THINK THEREFORE I 404.” The typewriter has a label reading “ROYAL ALMOST WORKS.” On the desk are small objects, including a mug labeled “I ♥ DATA SLUDGE,” a can marked “WD-40 AND THOUGHTS & PRAYERS,” and scattered screws and debris. The overall tone is surreal and satirical, emphasizing a broken, low-quality AI struggling to produce output in a decayed, “used-future” environment.

Screenshot of the MeshCore mobile app's Discover screen, filtered to show Recent Node Adverts for repeaters only. A map of the southeastern United States displays clustered map markers in yellow and green, each labeled with a number indicating the count of repeaters in that area. The densest concentration is in the Carolinas/Virginia region near Raleigh, with clusters including values of 38, 29, 6, 3, 95, 72, 30, 63, and others. A teal marker labeled "RTF REPEATER" with a broadcast icon is visible near Tennessee. Smaller clusters appear near Atlanta (4, 6) and coastal South Carolina/Georgia (6, 2, 9, 2). The search bar reads "Search 360 Repeaters..." indicating 360 total repeaters are discoverable. Map tiles are from OpenStreetMap.

A black-and-white close-up shows a young man lying on his back in a dense bed of small white flowers. His face is turned upward, eyes open and reflective, expression calm yet solemn, as light catches the moisture on his skin. The surrounding blossoms frame his head, creating a quiet, contemplative contrast between beauty and loss.

A sign in Spanish at an airport or immigration checkpoint promotes a U.S. government program called CBP Home. The sign headline reads, “Auto deportése con CBP Home y salga bajo sus propios términos,” which translates to “Self-deport with CBP Home and leave on your own terms.” The main text below offers: “Reclame un vuelo gratis y $1000 para cada miembro de su familia,” meaning “Claim a free flight and $1000 for each member of your family.” The sign explains eligibility for undocumented individuals voluntarily leaving the U.S. through the CBP Home mobile app. It mentions financial assistance, flight arrangements, and waiver of civil fines. At the bottom are QR codes linking to the App Store and Google Play, alongside a website URL: dhs.gov/cbphome. The design uses blue, white, and red colors, and includes an illustration of a smartphone screen showing two figures walking together.
