My Body Is a Machine That Turns GitHub Releases Into Cloudflare Outages
Description
A composite meme overlaying the 'MY BODY IS A MACHINE THAT TURNS ... INTO ...' skeleton weightlifting template with real notifications. The background shows a skeleton lifting a heavy barbell with text 'MY BODY IS A MACHINE THAT TURNS' at the top and 'INTO' below. Overlaid are two real chat notifications: a GitHub APP notification at 12:40 from workers-devprod showing '[cloudflare/workers-sdk] New release published: @cloudflare/[email protected]' with 9 emoji reactions, and below it a Cloudflare APP notification at 12:49 (edited) showing 'Cloudflare Global Network experiencing issues -- Investigating - Tuesday, 18 November 2025 at 14:04 (6 minutes ago) During our attempts to remediate, we have disabled WARP access in London.' The juxtaposition implies the new release directly caused the outage. Made with mematic & Tenor

The status-bot release was so successful at detecting outages that it decided to create one for a proper end-to-end test
That's what happens when you set the 'blast radius' in your deployment configuration to 'everything the light touches'
