From a brilliant British space comedy, Red Dwarf. Not like David the Gnome or Gimli or whathaveyou, like I thought the first time I tried to watch it. I couldn't concentrate on it, because there was no forest or mushrooms or moss or leafmould...
Yonks later, I remembered that I hadn't seen it, and nothing else about it. It's become a perennial favorite since. Every time they come out with a new season, I rewatch from the beginning.
It began in like 1988, so yes it's a bit dated, sexist, gross... But also flipping hilarious. If you search YouTube for "Red Dwarf It's a Banana", that scene is what I like to show people to introduce them to the humor. I should go live there, in the UK.
This image is from an episode where they've encountered a despair squid on an ocean moon. The squid's ink is hallucinogenic, and makes them despair. They "wake up" out of an immersive video game they've been playing for years, their "real selves" complete opposites of who we've come to know them as. The slob who cleans the soup dispenser nozzles on a massive spaceship turns out to be a swanky, rich politician in a fascist society.
Anyway, that's where the image comes from- their group hallucination about actually coming from this fascist world, where a child is gunned down in the streets for stealing an apple "of the people".
