Artifact Overview

This pin references a meme in wide circulation during the 2020 presidential election. Originally a webcomic by KC Green, the "this is fine" dog transformed into a reaction image on various social media as early as 2014. The dog's words are sarcastic--he is deluding himself into thinking everything is okay while the room around him is engulfed in flames.
