       @futurebird @temptoetiam It's the future! Graphical abstracts. Summary and conclusions as a YouTube video ("like and share this paper!")References section consisting of nothing but emoji and URLs.

       @futurebird @temptoetiam The paper is short, a "preview" with a hand-drawn summary figure. Not uncommon but yes a bit lacking in editorial oversight.https://www.cell.com/cell-host-microbe/fulltext/S1931-3128(21)00472-8

       @futurebird @temptoetiam That one deserves some sort of prize. Like an IgNobel for drawings: makes you laugh and then makes you think.

       @futurebird @temptoetiam The drawing is a bit unfortunate in that the abdomen hanging between its legs looks like a parasitic worm-infested scrotum in this very anthropomorphic ant cartoon.

       @futurebird @temptoetiam apparently there is an entire subreddit dedicated to figures like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/wildsciencefigs/I personally like the "woohoo one of the authors got a stylus for their ipad" figure style, it's pretty recognizable
