Specifically, this one. I miss my cool red tape recorder.

We don’t usually see each other’s headers. Here’s mine. Quote post with yours!
A sunlit view looking down the length of an old, weathered metal truss bridge with rusty red-brown girders and rivets. A prominent yellow overhead sign reads “↓ 14 FT. 9 IN. ↓”. The narrow paved road passes between the steel framework, flanked by lush green trees under a bright blue sky with scattered white clouds.

Quote with a fictional band that is not spinal tap
A group of seven men, the Hong Kong Cavaliers from The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension, stand together outdoors under a bright blue sky. Shot from a low angle, the group strikes a heroic pose while looking off into the distance. Their eclectic 1980s fashion includes a gray suit with a bow tie, black suits with colorful shirts and ties, a white jacket, and a flamboyant red outfit with a wide-brimmed hat and shaggy chaps. The stark concrete structures behind them and the dramatic perspective give the image a larger-than-life, adventurous feel.

Bluesky is dying, post your worst memes to kill it faster
A meme with white text over a still image from the TV show Stranger Things. The top text reads, “Where did the IT guy go?” and underneath it says, “He probably ransomware.”

A humorous meme showing a cat dressed in a suit sitting at a table with a cup and saucer, reading a newspaper in a softly lit room. At the top of the image, bold text reads, “I SHOULD GET A PILL ORGANIZER,” suggesting a moment of calm, adult self-reflection.

Quote post a favorite photo of yourself from any era ❤️
This is a selfie - I’m wearing a red polo shirt and the background is dark. I’m looking slightly up and to the left to the camera. In this picture I’m in my late 30s, a white man with dirty blond hair and blue eyes.

This is birds-eye view from our upper deck seats at the Minnesota Vikings preseason game against the New England Patriots, both my favorite teams.

ChatGPT: “Wide view of U.S. Bank Stadium during a Minnesota Vikings home game, showing the packed stands filled with fans in purple, the football field with players mid-game, and the large glass roof and structural beams overhead.”

Ladies and gentleman, here’s an excerpt from the Wikipedia page for the latest “Bluesky is dead” author, Sean Thomas. Hoo boy.
This paragraph is from author Sean Thomas’ Wikipedia page under “Personal Life”:

In 1987 Thomas was acquitted at a trial at the Old Bailey of a rape charge brought by his then-girlfriend.[26][27] Thomas has written about his alcohol and drug addiction, especially heroin.[28][29] In 2003 he wrote an article in The Spectator about his problems with internet porn, and how it caused him to "wank myself into hospital". The article is cited by psychiatrist Norman Doidge in his book The Brain That Changes Itself as a "remarkable account of a man's descent into porn addiction".[30]

Hoo boy.

Video game that should get a sequel but never will.
The video game is called "Days Gone" and you play the role of Deacon St. John, a former bike gang member turned drifter in a genetic virus experiment gone wrong post-apocalyptic world filled with zombie "freakers" that only understand how to kill and feed. His wife, Sarah, was injured the night that all hell broke loose, and she left on a government helicopter taking her to a MASH unit that was reported overrun by the mindless masses.

A movie that takes place where you're from
This image is the cinema poster for the film "Black Mass" starring Johnny Depp. He's pictured standing sideways to the right dressed in blue jeans, a black leather jacket and has his hair slicked back. He's also holding a revolver and looking down at a man that he murdered on the ground. The movie depicts the story of Whitey Bulger, a notorious gang boss in South Boston, Massachusetts, in the 70s and 80s.
