Always reminded of the Tom Toro (2012) New Yorker cartoon:

> Yes, the planet got destroyed. But for a beautiful moment in time we created a lot of value for shareholders.

I too think of that cartoon regularly. Direct link on The New Yorker website:

https://www.newyorker.com/cartoon/a16995

I recommend you put that one on your list instead because Instagram is very hostile to people trying to see anything without an account. The one on The New Yorker website is open to all and on the Internet Archive.

Thank you for sharing the interview. I hadn’t come across it before. The cartoon is more popular than I realised, which makes me glad.

The Instagram one is entirely a single image so people will find it easier to share via social media.

I (and I assume I'm not alone in this) rarely even bother clicking on Instagram or "X" posts because I can't be bothered with all the hassle when all I want to do is quickly view the content, and I'm not willing to gamble on whether or not it's going to work.
