Description

The comic features a graph with the following components:

• Title: "How Culture Ends: Not with a bang… with a whisker."

• Y-Axis Label: "PRIMARY HOUSEHOLD BREADWINNER"
  • This axis shows a measure of household breadwinner status, represented with blue lines for "men" and red lines for "women."
• X-Axis Label: "TIME"
  • There is a vertical line labeled "INVENTION OF INTERNET," indicating a significant point in time.
• Lines:
  • A blue line representing "men" remains relatively constant until the invention of the internet, after which it slightly declines.
  • A red line representing "women" starts low and gradually increases before the internet, then experiences a more significant rise after the invention of the internet.
  • An orange line that states "cats who do funny things on camera" sharply rises right after the invention of the internet.

Overall, the graph humorously suggests a shift in cultural focus coinciding with the rise of internet content related to funny cats.
