Sketch cover for the series of fan comics dedicated to my favourite duo. I want to give you quite a bit of content before the summer, especially about the little sidekick droid that Cobb will have in these adventures ❤

If you’re not gonna watch the Last of Us HBO because you don’t like how Bella Ramsey looks, then fine, whatever, your life.

HBO, Craig Mazin, and the rest of the fans? They don’t give a shit that you’re missing out on a fantastic show and performance because you’re too shallow to care about something other than someone’s appearance.

The problem is when you insult a someone’s appearance online. It’s cruel and objectifying, and it’s even worse when it’s someone who isn’t even old enough to drink in the USA.

You genuinely forgot that they’re a real human being with feelings and a life, and that they don’t exist to cater to you. That says a lot about you as a person.

Being awful towards Bella doesn’t make you special or opinionated. It doesn’t make you a bigger fan of the games. It doesn’t make you seem smart or cool or edgy. It just makes you seem like what you are: an asshole.

Listen to me when I say this: The Last of Us is a huge show and you being a dick isn’t gonna change the fact that it was one of the most viewed and best shows of 2023, and that the same thing is probably gonna happen in 2025. So go cry in a corner because they won’t recast an incredible BAFTA, Emmy, and Golden Globe nominated actor. We don’t care. We’ll be enjoying a great show with a great cast of real humans who look like humans instead of carbon copies of digital avatars or supermodels, and there’s nothing you can do about it.

I think on this fine Saturday afternoon it's a good opportunity to take a breather and remember that there are really no ethical paparazzi pictures. Every single one is inherently exploitative.

Just because photos were taken on a movie set, when someone is 'working,' does not make the practice any less invasive and creepy. Imagine just going about your day, doing your job and having some weirdo snapping pictures of you to sell without your consent for others to endlessly repost online.

There are thousands of pictures of your favourite actor online already. Plenty taken with his knowledge and consent. I'd really like to see more of them on my dash, rather than the creeper shots.

And don't get me started how disseminating these pictures directly leads to people going to said sets. What starts off as admiring how good someone looks has real world implications.

No, hanging around a movie set and disrupting people doing their jobs is not harmless fun or a way to show your appreciation.

If you hang around a movie set, you are a stalker.

Don't tell me that it's okay to take your online admiration for someone offline. You may admire him but he does not, and will never, personally know you. He will never be your friend/boyfriend/daddy. He is a stranger.

The only way meeting your favourite actor is going to happen is at a convention or maaaaaybe a movie premiere if you're incredibly fortunate. You know, places they appear specifically to meet fans (or not in the case of premieres, where the purpose is to promote a movie. Which is also completely understandable if actors don't stop. You are not owed an interaction).

Of course, you cannot help it if you randomly run into someone you admire in the wild. Even then, consider that they probably won't be all too thrilled to be approached in public by a complete stranger. It's up to you to gauge the situation, but remember there is a person at the heart of all of this.

Boundaries and respect are a kindness which deserves to be extended to each and every human being regardless of their looks/talent/fame/wealth.

Fandoms blur those lines a little too often for my liking and I think just scrutinising what you're interacting with, or what behaviour you could be possibly falling down that slippery slope towards is nice to do every once in a while.

I mean no malice with this post and it is not directed at anyone in particular. It's something I cannot help but feel strongly about because I've seen this destructive cycle time and again in fandoms over the years. It's not healthy and it makes us all a little bit more disconnected from our humanity for it...

I thought these latest photos on set were taken by people on set, but after seeing videos and some other photos, it seems like people are just walking right up and taking them. Why?! Let the man work in peace.

Can people leave Coco alone? Is that so hard to just keep some things to yourself? There is no need to speculate or start rumors or create some weird fantasies about her. This is not a fanfic. Her life and interactions with Pedro are not a fanfic.

I have really (not all that conflicting) conflicting thoughts on Paparazzi. Recently I’ve seen a lot of photos of Pedro Pascal “out in the wild” (aka living a life outside of the camera) and at first I’m like “wow he looks really good! It’s fun to see him not in an interview or movie/tv show/etc” but then I’m like “but isn’t it weird? I’d hate being photographed when I’m just trying to get in my car” and the paparazzi are already known for exploiting bad situations for clicks. I don’t hate people who reblog that stuff. It’s fun it’s fresh I get it and I’m guilty of it too. What concerns me is that the paparazzi aren’t below possibly risking someone’s safety for views. Like when people caption it “PEDRO PASCAL LEAVING THE GYM IN L.A!” ITS SO WEIRD! Imagine going to get a pizza or something and now people are photographing you and posting where you were in the internet. don’t want to sound ‘higher than thou’ because I love seeing him as much as the next guy! But I don’t think people should promote legalized stalking. Some people may argue that “they signed up for it when they became famous” like no they didn’t. I just think it’s really weird. I’ve only really thought about this recently and now I’m wondering how many other people feel the same.
