and presumably this one where she underlines she's deliberate about whose money she'll take, too
a cropped screenshot of Sydney Morning Herald article quoting Ray 'Raygun' Gunn saying “I didn’t plan for any of this, but it would be silly not to leverage this moment, so I’m just taking it as it comes, and if I get an opportunity that resonates with my values and personality, then yeah, let’s work together.” The article includes 5 images of her routine during the Paris Olympics in various poses.

some of the crimes people are being accused of sound kind of bad-ass
screenshot of text from the ft dot com article.

Text reads: "In the Turnberry case, Scottish prosecutors highlighted the apparent political nature of the incident. The indictment reads: “You did . . . paint political offensive slogans on the grass, score a political slogan into the turf, paint political and offensive slogans on a building, walls and pillars.”

In March last year, before the UK banned Palestine Action, Trump described the alleged vandals as “terrorists” who should be “treated harshly”.

[the names of the accused are replaced by a black rectangle]

Three of the defendants, [Surnames almost completely obscured except for a bit of a comma because I'm lazy and detail disoriented] are additionally charged with [and the following is highlighted by me in blue] attempting to “defeat the ends of justice”."

I sure did. Also clicked the article. The current version looks like this. They've added more tags, but Russia is still the first tag which is questionable for an article that is, as you say, about Ukrainians in Ukraine
cropped screenshot from The National. Headline reads: "Meet the Ukrainian MP on a mission in se..." it is from 8 hours ago according to the image and is tagged with: Russia, Ukraine, National Government, Politics, Scotland

The image shows Ukrainian MP Anna Skorokhod delivering a speech during a regular sitting of the Ukrainian parliament in Kyiv (capital of Ukraine). She is wearing white formalwear and her hair is up and braided. She is speaking into 2 thin microphones. Her surroundings are made of wood-panelled dividers. Some grey carpet is visible to her right

Poorly cropped, sourced and edited image of Haley Joel Osment in a scene in A.I. (2001 film) with an even lower effort upper half of a speech bubble pasted below the actor's head. there is a visible artefact around the speech bubble where the transparency didn't quite work in MS Paint. There's also a sliver of orange on the bottom left of the image where the text from the YouTube video that the image was sourced from has been incompletely cropped.

"Surprise on 4. Can I get two scoops of vanilla, plain please Chef?"
Still from the TV series the bear. The character Marcus (Lionel Boyce) is hard at work on his art in the desserts and breads corner looking up and to his right at something with pursed lips. Around him are the trappings of an extremely organised kitchen work station decorated with inspirational recipes, images and texts that have led him to create food indistinguishable from art. He's actively taking his part in the social contract where he's working at a fine dining restaurant, not a Baskin Robins, and while Carmen might keep asking for different desserts every day that's part of his character arc, not because he should really plan ahead if he wants his dino nuggies when he's eating out with adults

warning signs showing a pictogram of two figures in a box with a small protrusion overlaid with a red circle and red bar with wavy black lines immediately outside the box. the same pictogram appears on either side of an elevator call button with an upward pointing arrow. The logo and name of the company, Schindler, appears on the panel with the button. It should be noted that this photo was taken because it's in the UK and hence the company would be known as Schindler's Lifts. There is no text on the warning sign clarifying that the pictogram means "do not use elevator in the event of a fire"

everything happening here from the BBC's reality denial to the community comment to the camera work in the video
A cropped screenshot of a quote-tweet. Original tweet from BBC World 9 March 2023 reads :"Mental-health crisis from pandemic was minimal, study suggests" and is followed by a content note using the British Medical Journal as a source stating that the review (the BBC used) admits that it was lacking in data for many vulnerable groups, and that the findings in it can't necessarily be applied to everyone." The quote tweet reads "I put Morbius on my 3DS so I could watch it in a sewer" and has a still from a video with what is ostensibly a scene from Morbius playing on a 3DS - source https://x.com/louceph/status/1634572551757221890

I think we're being shown completely different articles. This is a chunk of the one the link takes me to:
screenshot of text with a section highlighted that reads "It is that sensitivity which I think is obscured by the absurdity of looksmaxxing. It is certainly true that beauty and body standards are more punishing for women, and that girls feel the sharper end of that scrutiny. But there is little acknowledgment of what this journey looks like for boys; some recognition of this issue is, I think, part of the appeal of Clavicular. What is ultimately a very private struggle – the dislike of one’s appearance – is reshaped into a site of competition and ridicule, which makes these vulnerabilities less visible, but by no means less real. None of this is helped by the fact that young boys can access the casual cruelty of adult opinion on male appearance via social media; it’s not just the harassment of Keoghan, but all of the short men jokes and mocking of hairlines and weak chins and small dicks."

"a notably wet winter"
The painting is egg tempera and gold leaf on a wood panel. The width of the work is 81 cm (31.9 in) and the height is 63.5 cm (25 in). The works of de Vos and Sadeler share common characteristics with Poulaki's work. Poulaki's painting more closely resembles Sadeler's engraving. Both works feature similar figures. The major differences are the upper central figure of God. The figures also appear larger in Poulaki's painting. God is surrounded by angel heads atop wings. He is covered in a red drapery. His majestic garment floats in space, it is painted in rich detail. The folds of fabric are clearly visible. The artists used an advanced shadowing method.[4]

Noah and his wife are in the foreground. The artist demonstrates a mixture of Flemish, Italian and Greek art prevalent at that time. Noah's wife Naamah holds a pillow under her right arm as she points to the ark and looks sternly into Noah's eyes. The garments were influenced by the clothing of the Ionian Islands and Venice.

Naamah's garment is decorated with ornate tassels. Noah and his wife are wearing fashionably trendy hats. Noah is carrying a very important book under his left arm. Behind the main figures are their relatives. The entourage exited a massive palace. They are headed towards the ark. The two figures behind Noah both look into each other's eyes. The man has an elaborately decorated vase on his head. The woman's hair is braided. She holds an urn in her left hand. The remaining four figures to our left, closer to the animals are carrying important items to the ark. There are eight human figures in total.

The animals are a mixture of elephants, camels, wild cats, snakes, rabbits, turkeys, and other creatures. The animals that stand out the most are the two unicorns on the platform entering the ark, one is white and the other brown. The ark, castle, and figures reflect the painting's complex three-dimensional characteristics. An elaborate mixture of birds are flying over the ark.
