A dark blue background with this text faintly overlaid: "having privileges is not your fault - it does not make you a bad person - it is your responsibility to extend those privileges to everyone who lacks them." Layered on this is the first line of this post plus Lindley's logo.
The second image has the same background, plus a photo of an Allstate insurance sign with a casually bigoted fat joke.
