A single-panel comic. A woman with curly reddish hair stands in a green field and looks up in horror at a large flaming asteroid plummeting from the sky. She cries, "Oh my god! That asteroid is headed straight for the old cemetery! I hope all the corpses are okay!" A caption beneath reads: "This is what I imagine when people say AI will ruin social media." The joke: worrying about AI ruining social media is like worrying about an asteroid harming things that are already dead and beyond harm. Votey (aftercomic): a simple line-drawn face beneath a speech bubble that says, "Gosh I hope none of the shockwaves manage to hit the Titanic" extending the same gag to another already-destroyed thing.
