can't wait to see this movie
Meme format with the newly-iconic shots from “You Can See Everything”, a documentary about Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes. 

First frame: Interviewer asking “You’re a real PNG file, right?” (This is not a line from the documentary as far as we know)

Second frame: Elizabeth Holmes saying “Why would I deceive you?”, like she does in the teaser for the documentary, but behind her the background has been photoshopped out and there’s a grey and white grid of squares, like you see on fake PNG files that don’t really have a transparency layer.

God the gringo uniforms are ugly! What were they thinking?!? Is it supposed to be camouflage? Go zebra mode so the opponents can’t tell you apart? #WorldCup
Info graphic summarizing early games in the 2026 World Cup. You can see a player from the Mexican team, the Canadian team and the USA team. Above them are the scores from their first matches with Mexico having won 2-1, Canada having tied 1-1, and USA winning 4-1. 

Their uniforms are visible, of course, so we could see that the Mexican uniform is green above white below, the Canadian uniform is solid, red, and the US uniform has white shorts with a white shirt with strange red stripes that waive as if a flag was waving rather than being straight across the body.

It’s an elaborate joke so buckle up. 

First, we see a password field with the password filled out. 

Then a text label that says  “ a photo of an actor with a missing toof will be sent to your phone. When received enter the number of the missing toof here”. Followed by an empty text field and a button that says login. 

Then a screenshot of your phone with a text message showing a photo of Hugh Jackman with one of his teeth, blacked out and the number three super imposed on the black tooth. 

Next, we are back on the website and we see someone has entered the number three in the empty text field. A success message reads “toof actor, authentication successful”.
