A portion of the proceeds from this auction will go to benefit worthy causes including the ASPCA, Internet Archive, EFF, WWF, and other organizations along these lines.

A portion of the proceeds from the meme sale will go towards foundations and organizations that support animals, teach technology to kids, and allow art on the internet to be appreciated (ASPCA, Internet Archive, EFF, WWF, and others). It will also go towards supporting artists and buying more NFTs! These images are the original files from my ancient personal archive.
