Leon: Hey Ada, did I ever tell you i was on the football team in high school?
Ada: I don’t care
(Flashback)
Football coach: Kennedy! I need you out there!
Leon, donning a Mr Raccoon mascot costume: “be right there, coach!”

I interpreted those as being a 3D version of the kind of simplistic car shapes kids would doodle.

For me, it suffers the same problem season two of The Mandalorian had, where it leans a bit too heavily into nudging and winking at fans of the games.

a shirt design featuring a skateboarding boy who may look somewhat similar to a famous skateboarding boy from a cartoon but it's impossible to know for sure because there's a black bar over his eyes, holding his own severed head and saying "anything subversive or countercultural can and will be commodified and re-absorbed by existing social order, defanged and neutralized, reduced to an aesthetic pose. No product can ever be radical, man."

I think it's because --apart from the moments they sing-- I always saw them as being like silent era cartoon characters, or mute video game protagonists.

I decided to look up some of the Gorillaz videos I hadn't seen, and... they actually talk in some of them?

Nope. Do not like that. At all.

Season 2 overall --despite some good moments-- fell completely flat for me anyways. It's a bad sign when the finale is basically just all set up for another season.

Also, I got the feeling the writers had no idea what to do with Maximus. A shame, because he was an interesting character in season 1.

I just got around to watching the finale for Fallout season 2.

Let's just say my thoughts on the episode can be summed up by my saying "oh my fucking god" (derogatory) out loud at the reveal in the post credit scene.

4 panel comic

P1: a right hand draws a wavy stroke on a sketchbook page. A caption box up top reads "draw"

P2: the word "CREATE" dominates a panel with a black background, forming in the negative space. Various small shapes surround it.

P3: a lone simplified humanoid figure is on the bottom right of a another panel with a black background. A thought bubble forms above their head, the words "if not for others, then at least for yourself" within.

P4: The Earth dominates the bottom of the panel, with a sliver of space above it. Clouds swirl and boil across the Earth, which is the only element on the entire page coloured a pink-red. A caption box above reads "now, more than ever"

Embrace your spite in the face of *all this* and let it fuel you like a runaway motorcar.

If you cant change the world at large for the better you can at least improve your immediate orbit to the best of your ability.

Try to be well for YOU in spite of everything else of thats all you can muster ❤️

"Between 1856 and 1859 a young girl named Emily Mary Madden filled a small sketchbook with drawings of her family's cat, Mouton. Emily was born in 1848 which means she was about 8-11 when she made these illustrations"

I love you, Emily. You're a wonderful artist. We draw our cats in the future too.

For me, this would be the ultimate form of fame: getting big bucks to do what you love, but also not being recognisable enough to be stopped in the street by all but the most hardcore fans.

6 panel comic

P1: Cartoon me, sat at a table, drawing a comic on a sheet of paper. My character is thinking to himself "another day, another comic... Do I do this because I actually enjoy it? Or, do I do this because it is a means for me to avoid having to think about the late-stage capitalist hell we are all drowning in?

P2: a beat, as cartoon me lifts the page to see what he's drawn

P3: first person POV of the comic. It's titled "Freddy Fart Face."

P4: close up of cartoon me as he stares silently at the page, with an uncertain look on his face

P5: same POV, except now cartoon me has a big smile on his face

P6: POV pans back to reveal the room cartoon me is sat in, which is shrouded in darkness. Out the window, a city is but jng in the distance, while the door to the room is barred shit with a plank of wood wedged under the doorknob.

Cartoon me remains blissfully oblivious, as he stares smiling at his creation.

6 panel comic

P1: A cartoon version of me, arms folded and sitting in a high backed chair at a desk. A worried look on  his face as he thinks to himself "I just don't know what to believe in any more..."

P2: A beat, as he tilts his head downward, considering.

P3: A look of happiness on his face, Cartoon Me raises his head upward, speaking to someone above.

"Except for YOU, of course. No matter what, you are always there for me."

P4: We cut to an over the shoulder view to see what Cartoon Me is looking at. It's a crack in the ceiling.

P5: A beat, as we remain on that.

P6: An otherworldly "HÖÖÖÖÖÖ" comes out of the crack. Cartoon Me responds with "at once, oh master."

4 panel comic

P1: my cartoon self, sitting up in bed. He looks like he has just woken up, and he is staring with squinted eyes at something on a tablet, which he holds close to his face. 

Everything is rendered simply, with just a single shade of blue adding a splash of colour.

P2: BOOM. The drawing style remains the same, but the colouring is suddenly far more complex and "real." Cartoon me lowers the tablet with a look of obvious disgust on his face, his eyes squinting even more.

P3: We are back to the simple colour style of the first panel, as we cut to the exterior of a two storey house. From the upper window, the tablet goes sailing through the air.

P4: Back to cartoon me, who collapses down on to the pillow with a look of sheer annoyed exhaustion on his face.
