I have a hard enough time explaining what a rotary telephone is to my children.

I don't know how people are going to explain in a few years that there was this brief window where people were buying monkey jpegs for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

If you ever want evidence of COVID causing severe collective brain damage look no further than the years in which people were actively spending money on ugly ape gifs.
