**Prompt for image generation:**

A realistic photograph of a chaotic bedroom scene that humorously mimics the STRANDS NYT puzzle interface—only it’s made entirely out of real objects. Cassie, an 18-year-old wearing a party hat and surrounded by birthday balloons, sits cross-legged on the floor amidst scattered Scrabble tiles, tangled birthday streamers forming word paths on the floor and furniture. A half-eaten cake rests precariously on a dictionary, while her cat smugly lounges atop a stack of crossword puzzle books. Her phone flashes with "Daily Streak Broken!" in the corner. There’s a noticeable pile of actual keys mixed into the letter tiles on the floor—none of which she can find. Lighthearted, witty chaos fills the frame with realistic textures, funny birthday details, and the feel of a birthday morning for a word-game addict. Natural lighting with pops of festive color, the scene looks like it was candidly snapped mid-birthday puzzle panic.
