That screen shot reminds me of the old After Dark 'Bad Dog' screen saver module that would capture your screen before the bad dog was let loose.
Speaking of Mission Control, is anyone else having issues with gestures, swiping, and Mission Control in general with Monterey? For me, there are random, intermittent periods of time where no gestures or swiping (between desktops) work. It just kind of comes and goes.
This was not the case prior to the 12.1 release so I hope this is fixed in the 12.2 release. I should add that I am using a new M1 16" MacBook Pro, so not sure if this is a new hardware (trackpad) issue that Apple needs to address with updated drivers.
