Two-panel Simpsons meme. Top: Bart looks worried beside an inset heat map of the western US glowing red and orange, captioned "THIS IS THE HOTTEST SUMMER OF MY LIFE". Bottom: Homer points a finger at Bart, captioned "THIS IS THE COLDEST SUMMER OF THE REST OF YOUR LIFE". Watermark: @QueerSatan. Four-panel Simpsons screenshot grid. Top left: sign reading "REPUBLICAN CONVENTION INSIDE". Top right: banners reading "WE WANT WHAT'S WORST FOR EVERYONE" and "WE'RE JUST PLAIN EVIL" over a cheering crowd. Bottom left: sign reading "DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION INSIDE". Bottom right: banners reading "WE HATE LIFE AND OURSELVES" and "WE CAN'T GOVERN!" Caption at top: "In the 90's all you needed is 1,44 MB to destroy the world". Four cartoon panels each show a character holding a floppy disk: a masked armored villain in a silver helmet, a blonde anime girl with twin buns in a sailor outfit, a blue shark in a dark jacket, and a red-haired gargoyle woman. Watermark: @ithumor. Top text: "And so, Dr. Baloo finds himself leaping from life to life, hoping each time that his next leap... will be the leap home." Below are three cartoon stills of bears: Baloo in a pilot's cap flying a plane with Kit Cloudkicker from TaleSpin; the bear Little John beside Robin Hood the fox in Disney's Robin Hood; and Baloo dancing with Mowgli in The Jungle Book.

A pale beam of light falls from above, and a black ink-like skull creature with white eyes drops into it. Red letters at the bottom read: AHHHH Two-panel comic. Top: a hand hovers over two red buttons. Left label: "Desire to be recognized among peers". Right label: "I do not wish to be perceived". Bottom: a sweating red-haired man in a red shirt wipes his brow with a cloth. Credit: JAKE-CLARK.TUMBLR
