Dense Caption

The image features a solid purple background. Pink star shapes are distributed across the canvas: some small, some medium-sized, all pixelated. Three horizontal rows of cyan-colored text display the word "Whatever" repeatedly; each row contains four instances of this exact phrase. The stars appear in varying densities and positions between the rows of text. A gray rectangular area occupies the bottom-right corner, partially obscuring the background.
