The nooses are attached to thick ropes which are in turn connected to three distinct, colored clouds (yellow, green, blue) each emitting a network of white circuits. The background is a stark, blood-red color. Author: Paru Ramesh

An illustration shows a retro-style computer monitor displaying the words "THIS FEMINIST INTERNET LIFE" and "FTX STORIES OF COLLABORATION, CREATIVITY & CARE". Four diverse figures sit below the screen, listening or speaking into microphones, connected by glowing, plant-like tendrils to the computer. To the right, glowing neon text reads "PODCAST AVAILABLE AT FTXPODCAST.APC.ORG". The illustration is signed "ILLUSTRATED BY NADEGE".
