(oh, as i did not include "alt text" for the video above, i've copied the text of the video to the "alt text" for this image (one of the Elsie Janis photos in the video (White Studio, 1925, from the NYPL)))
Video text: In 1925, at the height of The Cross-Word Mania, the renowned vaudeville performer and songwriter Elsie Janis (“The Sweetheart of the A.E.F.”; “The Regular Girl”) presented her new revue: “Puzzles of 1925”. A smash hit at the time, drawing crowds across the country, this cross-word-themed revue would quickly be forgotten: a mere footnote in the life of a woman who is herself a footnote in the history of musical theatre which is itself a footnote in the great story of Mankind. There in the dust-bin of history: there “Puzzles of 1925” has remained for 100 years! and there it shall remain even after… carrie z and Hedra Rowan proudly present: “Puzzles of 2025” A new revue for a new century!! (in auditory format) Forty songs!! (including the surviving songs from that forgotten revue of yestercentury) Hidden secrets!! (a puzzle in the background both unfair and unreasonable) Amidst a foul year, a fair breeze of frivolity!! (or so it has been to us) “Puzzles of 2025”! by carrie z and Hedra Rowan. To be released, if all goes well, before the year is out. (Also this image is of Elsie in the play, wearing a crossword-puzzle dress and standing next to Jimmy Hussey.)

tomorrow night, if all goes well.
The album art for "Erik Satie: Complete Piano Works - Volume 12" by Carrie Z. It's the famous Ramón Casas portrait of Satie in the Chicago Art Institute. But I did a poor job taking a photo of it. It's shown here in image editing software and this post is being planned out in a text document in the corner of the screenshot. I admit that I find it mildly amusing to do this sort of thing.
