A detailed three-panel comic strip in a black-and-white, highly textured, cross-hatching style, depicting the cycle of online anger and its real-world consequences, with text overlays on each panel explaining the stages.
Panel 1, titled "1. THE FEED (THE ALGORITHM)", shows a man with disheveled hair, dark circles under his eyes, and a sweaty, distressed expression, lying in bed under a blanket. He is holding a smartphone, eyes wide and fixed on the screen. Thought bubbles emanate from the phone, containing angry emoji faces and aggressive, all-caps calls to action such as "THEY'RE DOING IT AGAIN!

Panel 2, titled "2. THE REACTION (PERFORMATIVE ANGER)", depicts the same man sitting at a computer desk, typing furiously on a keyboard
