The story

What this was

An illustration by Phillip Banks of a slouching brown dog, adopted through late 2024 as a picture of studied indifference, then complicated when it was minted and traded against the artist's wishes.

It first appeared in 2024, during short-form and streams.

Behind the record

Where it came from

There is no original to identify: this spread through many separate posts at once rather than from a first one. ViralWorld holds no copy of it either — what it was, when it spread and what people called it is the record.

Nothing here is claimed to be the first version of this, because research established there was not one — it appeared in many places at once.

Not established. This index only names a creator where the evidence supports it.
