    Just goes to show that cat memes have always been a thing.

    Needs more compression artifacts though:

    It’s awesome that the Library of Congress page had TIFF files of the kitty

      Trigger warning, please. Many of us survived the internet’s tragic Compression Artifact Wars. I know that some pockets of less fortunate areas still fight on, but we should not help spread their ignorance or nostalgic afflictions. Let us destroy this scourge once and for all. Modern and lossless formats for all!

    Wow, old photos of people always look so different to people from today. But cats… Have not changed even a little bit.

      Brünhild is a character from Germanic heroic lore. So, I don’t think so?
