What is known

Found image supplied for The Shadow Zone: an impact-font caption meme over a selfie-style photo of a young man with a short fringe and a neck tattoo, reclining on a green inflatable in front of tall grass and purple thistles, a sprig of grass between his lips. The top reads "EVERYTHING WILL BE OK IN THE END," and the bottom "IF IT'S NOT OK, THEN IT'S NOT THE END." A faint watermark sits at the right. The man's identity and the photo's source are unverified. Maker, origin, and date are not recorded. The exif scrub reported no location metadata to strip.
