It's weird how timeless it is. If you told me she was holding a phone tablet, and resting on a sofa-bed at her grandma's house, I'd believe you

I know right. Once you remove the different clothing and makeup and hairstyling they had back then. And show someone in an “non-cosmetified” state, in casual clothes, it looks like she could have been sick in bed yesterday.
