We vibrate the receptacle violently.

The bag and the planet pull towards each other.

And this is why releaser gap should by wider than sustenance is tall.

No, it is we who have failed the planet.

the planet is helpless against the trappings of man's machinery

I love these and in my head the aliens talk in a weird, almost chipmunky alien voice. The show they're releasing ruined that cause they speak like normal people

ive seen the show, and i dont believe this comics format lends itself to video. and apparently audio.

@originalucifer @Nuke_the_whales I liked the show as much as but in a different way than the comics. Different, but still good.

Looking at the trailer real quick, it gives off "redditor trying to hard to be cute and quirky" vibes

that is spot on. the unique observations that work in short segments are drawn out as to no longer be unique or interesting. its kinda boring.

[–] Nuke_the_whales@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Agreed. Much prefer it as a small 4 panel comic

[–] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 year ago

In my head they sound like the mooninites

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It’s weird because the voice I created in my head is almost exactly the same as the show, just more nasally.

But their behavior in the show is way different from how I picture the comic characters would behave.

Because you failed the planet.

It's semantics! The chicken evolved from something (I'm going to call that something "Chicken Prime"). One day a Chicken Prime laid an egg and then out came a chicken from the egg.

So would the egg that the Chicken Prime laid be considered a chicken egg? Or because the Chicken Prime was the one who laid the egg, would the egg be considered a Chicken Prime Egg?

I'll give credit to the egg layer and say it was a Chicken Prime Egg; the chicken came first!

Thank you for reading my comment.

I think you're in the wrong thread.

[–] Pickle_Jr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 year ago

Oh my goodness! You are right. 😐

But regardless I am still team The Chicken Came First. 😤

[–] OpenStars@discuss.online 2 points 1 year ago

The chicken, being species-fluid, wonders why everyone has to put a label onto everything:-) 🤔

This person gets it
