hey guys i just finished a draft for one of the stories in my comic but could really use some critique. basically ive been interviewing multicultural people and then writing short comics based on our conversations. i think ive been staring at it too long and need a fresh pair of eyes. please be harsh idc. are the drawings too stiff or monotonous? do i need to add more background? is it written ok should i rewrite anything?

Such amounts of tumblr liberalism are unheard of in a single post

we got:

fandom url

moralizing violence

fandom screenshot set to make a point, added points for sarcasm and double that for being the good place

"leftists", "progressive"

giving a speech

hand-wringing about revolution, treating it as an impossible thing that has never happened and will never happen

utilitarian-like numbers game, toddler level understanding of how change happens under liberal democracies

surely voting will work this time, we just need to keep voting

we live in a democracy

“Nobody’s going to want to sit on high-speed rail for fifteen hours to get from New York City to LA.”

Me. I will sit on high-speed rail for fifteen hours. I’ll sit on it for days. I’ll write and read and nap and eat and then do it all over again. I’ll stare out the windows and see America from ground level and not have to drive. I’ll see the Rockies and the deserts and cornfields and the Mississippi River and your house and yours and yours too. I’ll make up stories in my head about the small towns I see as we go along. I’ll see the states I’ve yet to see because driving or flying there is a fucking slog and expensive to boot. I’ll enjoy the ride as much as the destination. And then I’ll do it all over again to come the fuck home.
