Here‘s Pepper trying to fit into his nephew’s bed:

I looked at that article and they’re comparing “US prisons“ to “state prisons”, which are two separate things. Kind of difficult to draw a comparison with that.
Drug offenses account for the incarceration of about 1 in 5 people in U.S. prisons.[7] Violent offenses account for over 3 in 5 people (62%) in state prisons.[7] Property offenses account for the incarceration of about 1 in 7 people (14%) in state prisons.[7]

The 2016 film Kubo and the Two Strings has this character, creatively named Beetle.
A humanoid stag beetle with a human face, shooting a bow.

I think my favorite in the "no way it grows like *that*" category is asparagus. Literally looks like some prankster is trying to fool you into thinking this is how asparagus grows.
Asparagus plants growing out of the ground. There isn't anything to these plants other than the entire edible vegetable (at least above ground) so it just looks like somebody stuck some asparagus stalks into dirt.

Well, Murphy, but close enough

But you know what, I’m not trusting a food quiz that can’t get its terminology right. You call that a burger?? That is a pulled pork *sandwich*, unless there’s an invisible beef patty somewhere.
A question from the quiz, asking whether you would like to eat a “pulled pork burger”, accompanied by an image of what is clearly a pulled pork barbecue sandwich with coleslaw.

I think I accidentally broke it too, because I have a severe milk intolerance and thus can’t have a significant chunk of the list! Also soups/stews/chili tend to trigger my autistic sensory issues.

An interesting bug I found recently. It’s a moth.
A very small moth with clear wings (though the angle makes it hard to tell) and a black-and-yellow striped body, making it resemble a bee. It’s perched on a leaf. The same moth, now seen from the top instead of the side.

There’s also club soda … but it will not, repeat, will not work in recipes where the main point of the egg is to provide structure to the finished product. I found this out the hard way when baking cookies once.
A plastic container full of what are allegedly oatmeal cookies, but in reality are merely oatmeal crumble formed into circles. They have fused together because on top of using the wrong egg substitute, I also forgot the wax paper. You can see little knife marks at one edge where someone tried to slice some of the Crumble Pile off. It is delicious but looks kinda like dog vomit.

But has she seen the ridiculousness that is the Mexican mole lizard?
The Mexican mole lizard, an animal that looks roughly like a pink snake or a big scaley earthworm but with two little legs near the head. Its eyes are just black dots.

Also, the King of Cups is Mr. Rogers. This deck also mostly takes the “keep the court card titles, just ignore gender in the artwork” route, but presumably this was just too perfect not to include.
The King of Cups card from the Fifth Spirit tarot. It depicts Mr. Rogers, in one of his famous cardigans, sitting cross-legged on a padded bench holding a hot drink. A crown is perched haphazardly on the bench’s corner.

I use this deck much more often — it’s my go-to deck these days. A little bit closer to the traditional RWS formula. Just, a very queer version of it. The Empress and the Emperor are both trans, and the Devil explicitly represents heteronormativity/patriarchy/etc.
The box for the Fifth Spirit Tarot by Charlie Claire Burgess The Sun card from this deck. It depicts a couple out on a picnic in the sun. The man is shirtless and has obvious top surgery scars. A beagle is licking his face while his partner grins in the background. The Empress card from this deck. She has an Adam’s apple and is surrounded by traditional agricultural symbols like grain and pomegranates. The Devil card from this deck. It shows a man and a woman — her in a dress and carrying a wine glass, him in a suit and smoking a cigar. They have been transformed into puppets, and the hands of a largely unseen being pull their strings.

This deck is gorgeous and very queer. My one (1) complaint about it is that the size of the cards makes them a bit unwieldy.
The box of the Next World Tarot by Christy C. Road The Strength card from this deck, showing a butch person hard at work gardening. The Queen of Cups card from this deck, showing a bearded man in a dress, legwarmers, and an elaborate headdress. He stands on a rock next to the ocean and looks over his shoulder at the viewer. A bird perches on his hand. The Revolution card from this deck, depicting the Standing Rock pipeline protests. In the foreground, an old woman and a little girl stand next to each other.

The words “Be gay, do necromancy, respect trans women” are superimposed on some art of a woman in a red and purple dress.
