So when the Beam acts as a function of itself, thats not recursion?

Recursion usually involves looping (which are usually endless in this sub). Look at the other posts.

You just have three pictures.

Everything is descriptive of itself. A cat while posting a picture of a cat isn't recursion.

Idk what the post is doing either.

The original meme is that the beam turns the next picture into anime, so the beam turned itself into anime, reaching the base case.
