For years after 9/11 we were constantly told “NEVER FORGET” and the idea was basically “keep feeling sad and afraid and especially ANGRY forever; don’t let time dull your emotional response like it’s naturally supposed to; continue to justify the injustices by feeling this way all the time.” And the 3000 deaths were constantly pointed to as this huge deal that justified any lengths to go to.

And then Covid hit. And there were several points during the height of the pandemic (because fun fact, according to the actual definitions of a pandemic, *it’s not technically over yet!* ) where we were having a 9/11’s worth of deaths every week or so. And suddenly 3000 deaths were not a big deal at all. Instead of being enough reason to go to war far away and strip us at home of many rights too, they weren’t even enough justification to make people wear a damn piece of fabric over their face.

3000 people died once and now the government can legally wiretap anyone without a warrant, and hold people at Gitmo under suspicion of terrorism (no need for due process)… 3000 people dying every week but we should all still be going out to brunch and concerts and who cares about the disabled and immunocompromised?

Tip For All Monster Hunters/Slayers:

Never, and I mean never take on a hunt solo, unless you are without a doubt certain you will come out alive. The most important part about hunting isn't the weapon, it isn't the salt, and it sure as shit isn't your "Kill Count".

It is your team. It is your Family, whether they be chosen, found, or blood. It is who you go into the field with and who you come out of the field with.

It is so important to choose the right people to live for, fight for, be near, and die for. Besides, there isn't a single hunter that I know who has done it on their own. And if there was, well where are they now!

Dead.

So, don't ever attempt to do this job solo. I will drag you back to your base by your ear and rip you a new one.

But that's the thing. She doesn't exaggerate or grotesqueify or alter people's bodies to fit some standard. (Except insofar as she draws different species differently, and those are exquisitely practiced to ensure they have the same diversity of appearances that humans do.) She just presents people exactly as they are, complexities and oddities and all.
