Through it all, just clinging to the ones that make it worth continuing to try...
Black and white watercolor drawing of a landscape with a patch of bamboo, a fence, backdrop of distant mountains with birds in flight silhouetted against the cliffside, as in the foreground a diminutive dragon rides a panda: "Which is more important," asked Big Panda, "the journey of the destination?" "The company." said Tiny Dragon.

A movie that takes place where you are from:

(Closest I know of, anyway)

....this is why I struggle with calling them skeets. But I guess if anything this helps because at least it's in the sky?
Background of pink clouds, black text reads: "You're the window / To my wall." "You're the sweat / That drips down my balls." "Skeet skeet."

Received word Musk’s staffers using space characters to catch info leakers. Use checker to detect and remove. Avoid directly leaking; request info rewritten/image recreated. This is essentially an email watermark—adding a space here, making a typo there, subtle changes to track leaks. Stay vigilant!
Post from Alt National Park Service: "Please share: We’ve received word that Elon Musk’s staffers are using space characters to identify information leakers. Before sharing any information, please use a checker to detect and remove these. Avoid directly leaking images; instead, request that the information be rewritten and the image recreated rather than shared directly from the source. This is essentially an email watermark—adding a space here, making a typo there, and similar subtle changes to track leaks. Stay vigilant."

Screenshot clip from a chat conversation reads: "The email for reporting DAeI hires, practices, etc is deiatruth@opm.gov Please do not use this to report the mental impairment of any resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, or to send dozens of photos of dog shit, thereby rendering the inbox useless.

Dostoyevsky counts as a celebrity, right?

....oh, hell. I'm screwed aren't I?
Painted portrait of Fyodor Dostoyevsky, top half, above a quote: 'People speak sometimes about the "bestial" cruelty of man, but that is terribly u just and offensive to beasts, no animal could ever be so cruel as a man, so artfully, so artistically cruel.' accurately attributed to Fyodor Dostoyevsky at the bottom.

Comic strip by IrregularGalaxyDoods (Instagram handle: IG_Doods), 3 panels featuring the Meta logo and an axolotl on a laptop, first panel: Meta logo says, "At Meta we're making some exciting changes." 2nd panel, the axolotl responds, "you're going to start showing my posts to the people who follow me?" 3rd panel, the Meta logo looks amused and replies, "No, haha. We're getting rid of fact checking and flooding our apps with fake accounts." From off panel the axolotl begins to ask, "who asked for-" and the Meta logo cuts them off with, "shh."

Quote image, black background, yellow title and attribution, white body text, right-aligned to make room for image of Karl Popper, on the left-hand side: The Paradox of Tolerance Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant. Karl Popper

Meme labelled "New Emotions" showing Disney's Inside Out characters, Joy, Sadness, Disgust, Fear, and Anger, cowering away, in the top panel and the "new emotions" in the bottom panel, which are actually mostly late-modern existentialist and similar genre authors, e.g. Camus, Wilde, Dostoyevsky, and Kafka (and one more pictured that I don't immediately recognize, apologies) superimposed over the actual new emotion characters from the movie.

These were the first ones I could find...
"Wait, you guys are getting paid?" Meme adjusted to be "Wait...you guys are getting dopamine?" instead. Saturn superimposed over the man rubbing hands together peering from behind a tree Giorgio Tsoukalos saying "Astrology!" instead of "Aliens!" "Draw a cat" blank prompt with a crude drawing of a Batman face saying "meow"
