This is a tangent but I just realized that both Polar and Head Lopper are like a cartoony version of Heavy Metal.

I recently started getting into Baby Metal and the wider Japanese Kawaii Metal bands. I understand that certain musical genres emerged to expressed frustration, but I think people (like myself) are maxed-out on rage and just want some escapism.

Can we have the sexiness of Goth fashion-- minus the depression? I don't see why not!

I think the Heavy Metal attitude is something I've seen in comics that I've gravitated to.

Great wisdom that I resonate with fullheartedly, especially "violent scenes lift my spirits." Certainty is impossible, just yell fuck it and pull the best work out of yourself. And break a leg with the shop expansion!

Thank for your words of support, Rob! Yeah, in the end we can only do the best we can and like said "we are in hands of the gods" in terms of success. Sometimes it's a question of time and opportunity completly out of our control, and we cannot do a thing... so the best option is "let's try to enjoy it"
