Photo of an open book page. Heading: "THE SUN NEVER SAYS". Poem: "Even / After / All this time / The sun never says to the earth, / "You owe / Me." / Look / What happens / With a love like that, / It lights the / Whole / Sky." A small star ornament sits above the title. Photo of a folded sheet of paper with typewriter-style text: "There comes a time in life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. Surround yourself with people who make you laugh, forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right. Pray for the ones who don't. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is part of life, getting back up is living." A green ecard-style graphic with a drawing of a dark-haired woman with bangs and a slight smirk, looking sideways, beside a speech bubble holding a gray heart. Text reads: "I want someone I can share my entire life with who will leave me alone most of the time." A slide with a dark teal background and a small red tab at the top right. White capital letters read: "THERE IS NO "DIGITAL STRATEGY" ANYMORE, JUST STRATEGY IN A DIGITAL WORLD." Black borders surround the slide. White and colored hand-lettered chart on a black background comparing two columns split by a vertical line. Left heading in green: "Good Theft". Right heading in pink: "Bad Theft". A "VS." is circled in the middle. Rows: "Honor" / "Degrade"; "Study" / "Skim"; "Steal from many" / "Steal from one"; "Credit" / "Plagiarize"; "Transform" / "Imitate"; "Remix" / "Rip off". Dark gray poster with a white border and light gray capital letters reading: "If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives and maybe even your mind." Smaller text at the bottom right reads: "-Charles Bukowski".
