This picture is held in our own storage — but the post it was shared in was indexed by an archive that lost its own index, so its title and caption are still being recovered. Nothing is guessed here: the picture and its fingerprint are shown, the words wait until they can be proved.

This is the desk’s one rule, printed: the words and the file belong to the same post. The name above was taken from that post's own comment; the picture is the file posted with those words; the hash is of the bytes we keep, so it can be recomputed from our copy. If a card cannot be proved, it does not ship - and the sweep re-checks them against the archive after they are on the shelf.
