There are definitely times when I wish I was working on a project that had no connection to what’s happening in the world, and was just an excuse to draw weird locations and design some outfits. Phobos and Deimos was only ever meant to be loosely related to current events. I’ve been working on it since like 2007, if you want to go back to the initial idea. The real world has yet to stop being a disappointment. I don’t know what I expected.
I don’t have anything insightful to say in this comment box. Black lives matter. Killing people is never justified, and an institution that can’t keep from murdering people is one that needs to go. That’s all.
