When his funding is suddenly threatened, Xavier tests the formula on himself despite the protests of his colleague Dr. Diane Fairfax (Diana Van der Vlis). While the formula proves initially useful in a variety of minor tasks, Xavier soon finds himself able to see things that no man was meant to see."

To save $2 million. Probably could have not felt the need to do this had the tRump “birthday parade” not been done. At least they’re keeping a couple ceremonial caisson units. Still, this is kinda sad.
“The U.S. Army's history is closely tied to its cavalry units, those soldiers who rode into battle on horseback. But the service announced Tuesday that it's moving toward a future without the ceremonial horses and will put most of them up for adoption.” - NBC News

The image features a detailed illustration of a bird perched on a branch against a solid coral pink background. The bird has a brownish upper body with a lighter, white underbelly, and its beak is pointed and slender. Its legs are thin and dark, gripping the branch firmly. The bird's tail is long and slightly curved, with a hint of yellow at the base. The branch is depicted with a rough texture, suggesting a natural setting.
To the right of the bird, there is text in a bold, black font that reads, "ease up with the horseshit, please." Below this text, in a smaller, cursive font, is the signature "Ceffinbirds." The overall composition is simple yet striking, with the bird and text being the focal points against the vibrant background.
