The cosmic family drama we never knew we needed! The top panel shows all the major planets having a jolly Thanksgiving feast while poor little Pluto sighs from afar, not invited to the planetary party. Then the bottom panel reveals the truth - there's a separate "dwarf planet table" where Pluto sits with fellow celestial misfits like Eris and Ceres, complaining about their second-class status in the solar system. This is basically the astronomical equivalent of being relegated to the kids' table at family gatherings. In 2006, astronomers officially demoted Pluto from planet to "dwarf planet" status, and clearly, the wound is still fresh. Nothing says "cosmic injustice" like watching Neptune enjoy mashed potatoes while you're stuck with the planetary outcasts who don't even like sweet potatoes.
