Yugoslav torpedo boat T6
T6 was a sea-going torpedo boat that was operated by the Royal Yugoslav Navy between 1921 and 1941. Originally 93 F, a 250t-class torpedo boat of the Austro-Hungarian Navy built in 1915–1916, she was armed with two Škoda 66 mm (2.6 in) guns and four 450 mm (17.7 in) torpedo tubes and could carry 10–12 naval mines. She saw active service during World War I, performing convoy, escort, patrol and minesweeping tasks, as well as anti-submarine operations. In 1917 the suffixes of all Austro-Hungarian torpedo boats were removed, and thereafter she was referred to as 93.

Agnosticism
Agnosticism is a position that questions the existence of God or the divine. On a psychological level, it is a personal attitude that suspends judgment, withholding both belief and disbelief. In philosophy, agnosticism is often treated as a general claim stating that God's existence is unknown or unknowable. In the broadest sense, agnosticism is not restricted to theology and can also express skeptical attitudes toward non-religious claims.

Lacy (song)
"Lacy" (stylized in all lowercase) is a song by American singer-songwriter Olivia Rodrigo from her second studio album, Guts (2023). Rodrigo wrote the track with its producer, Dan Nigro. It became available when the album was released by Geffen Records. A folk-pop and indie folk song, "Lacy" originated from a poem that Rodrigo wrote for a class assignment. The song chronicles Rodrigo's obsession with the beauty of a female figure named Lacy, as well as her own envy and self-hatred.

George Krugers
George Edward Albert Krugers (24 November 1890 – 10 August 1964) was a filmmaker active in the Dutch East Indies (modern Indonesia) during the early 20th century. Born in Banda Neira, he migrated to Java in the 1920s and spent time in Surabaya before moving to Bandung. There, he worked with L. Heuveldorp on the colony's first feature film, Loetoeng Kasaroeng (The Mystical Monkey), before making his directorial debut in 1927 with Eulis Atjih. The following year, he established the Krugers Film Company; under this banner, he joined the Hajj in 1928 to produce Het Groote Mekka-Feest (The Great Mecca Feast), considered the first documentary film about the pilgrimage.

1923 season 2
The second and final season of the American neo-Western and period drama television series 1923 was announced in February 2023. As a limited-run series, the program was not originally intended to extend beyond its initial eight-episode order. Season two was developed after its creator and showrunner, Taylor Sheridan, determined that the story needed more episodes to reach a proper conclusion. The series is a part of the Yellowstone franchise, and is a sequel to 1883 and a prequel to Yellowstone. 1923 stars Helen Mirren, Harrison Ford, Brandon Sklenar, Julia Schlaepfer, Jerome Flynn, Darren Mann, Isabel May, Brian Geraghty, Amina Nieves, Michelle Randolph, and Timothy Dalton.
