This is a single-panel reaction meme featuring a candid shot of popular American rapper Young Thug, who wears eyeglasses, multiple diamond-encrusted chains, and a white t-shirt.

Text is split across multiple lines over the image to form the full joke: "me in my own thoughts like / yeah this seems irrational as fuck / believe it".

The left panel is labeled 'A werewolf' and features a classic, aggressive, snarling folkloric werewolf wearing tattered, ripped clothing, posed in a hostile stance with its mouth open roaring, claws extended. The right panel is labeled 'Aware wolf' and features an anthropomorphic wolf dressed in traditional Buddhist monk robes, sitting cross-legged in a lotus meditation pose with its eyes closed, looking calm, peaceful, and enlightened.
