A painting of Paris. you are looking ahead of you and down at the Eiffel Tower. coming in at you from the sides are some attack helicopters. in front of you are a knife and fork held in two gigantic, scaly hands. you can see a little bit of your reflection in the blade of the knife confirming that yes, you are Godzilla.

A piece of graphing paper is taped to a desk, with a heavy pencil outline of the back, sides, keyboard, and screen of a desktop computer drawn on it. A label on the upper right corner says "Homebrew: Byte 1975-1985."

The same scene, but now the paper has been cut along the straight lines and partially folded along the dotted lines.

The same scene, but now the shape of a small paper computer is visible, since the paper has been folded much more.

Calling on my ancestors for guidance but the only one who answers is a weird eutherian rodent-mammal from the early cretaceous period. "EAT BERRY SLEEP UNDER ROCK" it says. Pretty good advice

Cherubino in Marriage of Figaro:
“I do not know anymore what I am, what I do,
One moment I'm on fire, the next moment I am cold as ice,
Every woman changes my color,
Every woman makes me tremble.
At the very mention of love, of delight,
I am greatly troubled, my heart stirs within my chest”

photograph from the 80's of the wrestler Sting wearing a Gold's Gym shirt and sunglasses, leaning against a shelf in a bookstore and positively cheesing at an open copy of The Far Side Gallery 2, a collection of Far Side Cartoons.
