the second meaning of the error message “insecure string pickle” inspired at least two different people independently of drawing it.

i’d wish for a link to one of those pics in the docstring or message of the error.

we’d have to host the pic ourselves since imgur isn’t guaranteed to retain the picture (although that’d need many consecutive months of no one following the link)

Sorry, I don't think this is something we can do. We're not going to put an image link into an exception message or docstring.
