Collage-style postcard with a yellow border. A small child in a red bandana screams with an open mouth at a shaggy brown pony or horse, whose mouth is also open, near a terracotta water tub. Pasted captions read "Life is good." and "Everyone just overreacts." Handwritten in the corner: "Even me." A dark gray upright sign stands in wood mulch beneath a large tree beside a pond. It shows a black goose silhouette inside a red circle with a diagonal slash, above white text reading "No Geese". Black text on a white background. Title: "Two-Headed Calf" by Laura Gilpin. "Tomorrow when the farm boys find this freak of nature, they will wrap his body in newspaper and carry him to the museum. But tonight he is alive and in the north field with his mother. It is a perfect summer evening: the moon rising over the orchard, the wind in the grass. And as he stares into the sky, there are twice as many stars as… Two-panel comic. Left panel, headed "Product Features", shows an elaborate gray multi-level cat tree with perches, platforms and a hammock. Right panel, headed "User Needs", shows a cat peeking out of a plain open cardboard box. Credit in corner: "_yes_but". Hand-painted ink and watercolor illustration of a green bullfrog against a black background. A speech bubble reads: "YOU ARE NOT ALONE IN THIS ABYSSAL DARKNESS. I AM HERE, AND WE SHALL FACE THE CHASM AS BROTHERS." A small white signature sits in the lower left corner. A small green tree frog rests one front foot on a giant human fingertip that has a red heart emoji on it. Text reads: "Frog is here", "Don't be sad", and "Things will be ok".
