Show me a picture on your phone that has your energy that isn’t a selfie.

Violet colored poster drawing of two women riding on impossibly large running house cats. Caption reads: Ladies, we ride at dawn: November 5, 2024

Screenshot of a text conversion.
Sender: Can I interest you in my religion?
Receiver: what’s your religion?
Sender: it’s more of a cult
Sender sends photo of an orange cat being held up in the air and several people in blue shirts kneeling around the cat with arms outstretched
Receiver: I’m listening

Photo collage of a cup of coffee, pancakes and butter, eggs and bacon and a round frog with a large smiling mouth. Caption says: Sleep is just time machine to breakfast, my dudes

Photo of a laptop screen with a scene from a TV show. A woman with long brown hair is speaking to someone, the closed caption says “shit.” The top of the woman’s head is slightly out of frame. A cat’s ears and a sliver of its head are visible behind the laptop screen making it look like the ears are part of the woman’s head, extending above the laptop

A musician, Oriana Korol, was peacefully playing clarinet with her protest band outside ICE facilities in Portland, OR.

When the band started playing “Ghostbusters,” ICE thugs suddenly poured outside, slammed her into the mud, arrested her and took her to a jail 9 miles away in Vancouver, WA.
