Article basically says that s2 will be greenlit if s1 blows up on Netflix when it drops there on May 31st.

To those who've already watched it and have Netflix, watch it again! To those who haven't, here's your chance, and spread the word! This show is incredible and unlike any other western animated show out there and it'd be a shame if it became yet another victim of corporate write-offs. Let's give Scavengers Reign a second chance at life!

This show is so good - a human colony ship essentially crash lands on an exoplanet teeming with truly alien life in an ecosystem like we've never seen before.

The art is gorgeous, the worldbuilding is fantastic, the story is compelling, and the voice acting and sound work are great.

Seldom do we get science fiction shows like this. It would be a tragedy if it's not renewed.

We here at Ad Astra strongly recommend Scavengers Reign!

Depends on whether it’s pre- or post-9/11.

Post-9/11 is mostly jingoistic dreck. Pre-9/11 you got stuff like American Remains and Sixteen Tons and The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia. Bangers, each and every one, and no mistake all of them were about pointing out flaws with how authority is handled.

post 9/11 country by male artists is jingoistic dreck. the female artists are doing songs about fun nights out at the bar, grief, and murdering your abusive husband

Okay, you know what, I’ll give you Girls Lie Too and Before He Cheats.

Dude no you're underselling substantially. Modern country has Delta Rae ("Hands Dirty," "I Go to Work,"), Miranda Lambert ("Mama's Broken Heart", "Kerosene"), Brandi Carlisle ("Raise Hell," "Fire Watcher's Daughter"), even the likes of Kacey Musgraves ("Follow Your Arrow," "Biscuits").

It's not 2005 anymore. And even if it was, The [neé Dixie] Chicks are still out there dropping bangers like "March March" and "Gaslighter," not to mention old favorites like "Goodbye Earl" and "Not Ready to Make Nice." C'mon, man.

Tiffany couldn't quite work out how Miss Level got paid. Certainly the basket she carried filled up more than it emptied. They'd walk past a cottage and a woman would come scurrying out with a fresh-baked loaf or a jar of pickles, even though Miss Level hadn't stopped there. But they'd spend an hour somewhere else, stitching up the leg of a farmer who'd been careless with an axe, and get a cup of tea and a stale biscuit. 

It didn't seem fair.

“Oh, it evens out,” said Miss Level, as they walked on through the woods. 

“You do what you can. People give what they can, when they can. Old Slapwick there, with the leg, he's as mean as a cat, but there'll be a big cut of beef on my doorstep before the week's end, you can bet on it. His wife will see to it. And pretty soon people will be killing their pigs for the winter, and I'll get more brawn, ham, bacon and sausages turning up than a family could eat in a year.”

“You do? What do you do with all that food?”

“Store it,” said Miss Level. 

“But you-”

“I store it in other people. It's amazing what you can store in other people.” Miss Level laughed at Tiffany's expression. “I mean, I take what I don't need round to those who don't have a pig, or who're going through a bad patch, or who don't have anyone to remember them.”

“But that means they'll owe you a favour!”

“Right! And so it just keeps on going round. It all works out.”

“I bet some people are too mean to pay-”

“Not pay,” said Miss Level, severely. “A witch never expects payment and never asks for it and just hopes she never needs to. But, sadly, you are right.”

“And then what happens?"

“What do you mean?”

“You stop helping them, do you?”

“Oh, no,” said Miss Level, genuinely shocked. “You can't not help people just because they're stupid or forgetful or unpleasant. Everyone's poor round here. If I don't help them, who will?”

"A Hat full of Sky" - Terry Pratchett

And now I remember why I grieve for Terry Pratchett, a man I have never met. He never knew of my existence, but he raised me to know what it means to care for people.

What I appreciate is that he not only showed this kind of thing working--that's good to depict, but it's also fairly common even if the details are usually less concrete. Books where people being decent even when it's hard matters are a dime a dozen.

Pratchett consistently showed that this kind of unglamorous public service, which is necessary to keeping human society running, is an absolute bitch and very very difficult and never becomes easy and has to be done anyway.

And also that you can do it while being yourself an absolute bitch, and in fact that tends to be a more applicable skill than niceness.
