19th century thirst trap repackaged as mental health commentary

Someone discovered a classical painting of a woman with a cigarette and decided it was the perfect vehicle for a "kids these days" rant disguised as vintage wisdom. The joke is supposedly that previous generations self-medicated with nicotine instead of fidget toys, which is less funny and more of a genuine health crisis dressed up as retro-cool. Peak energy for making your boomer uncle feel validated while simultaneously roasting Gen Alpha's coping mechanisms. It's the kind of content that makes you question whether the person posting understands that smoking kills, or if they're just committed to the bit.
