I went to see the new Superman movie today, and what really stuck out for me was all the animals. One of the heroes is a dog (Krypto, who has very bad manners), plus one of the threats Superman faces is a giant, fire-breathing animal. Also, Superman rescues a dog and a squirrel, and the trolls on social media are actually trained monkeys (which tracks, although I think monkeys would probably be a lot smarter than most of the weirdness on social media).
"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad." "How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice. "You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”
