Robyn G Robyn G (Jul 20 2021 8:29AM) : I'm sorry, but this gives the same energy as saying oh he forgot to pay a couple of million in taxes. No, you didn't you did it on purpose.

Hmm, I am not sure I understand what you mean?

Jul 22

Harry B Harry B (Jul 22 2021 8:40AM) : Perspective more

Mixed with the guilt of how hard he was on his son, and because this guy is new to the story – I think he is harder on the son then his fathers wants to be?

Question 0

Jul 20

Robyn G Robyn G (Jul 20 2021 8:31AM) : how come Lisa only going to divorce him and not get any charges pressed, It was clear she knew too because they foreshadowed it when she was talking before Qiqi got stuck on a balcony.

Harry B Harry B (Jul 19 2021 9:39AM) : Ugh more

I think is unnecessary to show the rawness of the men, the guys together, when the illustrator has so many tools as his disposal, that disappoints me when this does not have to be included to make a point. Sheesh.

Jul 20

Robyn G Robyn G (Jul 20 2021 8:36AM) : another bro group of three- almost like his father. side note pls don't tell me all-male get together are like this. smells like testosterone.

Hysterical.

Jul 20

Harry B Harry B (Jul 20 2021 8:44AM) : Therapy more

This is therapy for him – as he reasons out and looks back and reflects on his past. He did not see to be the type of person early in the story to ever do this.

Robyn G Robyn G (Jul 20 2021 8:44AM) : this is so sad and the trope of using monotonous travel as a way to reflect is done well here. I feel like if this was made into a short film or something I can grasp the narration at this point.

Jul 22

Harry B Harry B (Jul 22 2021 8:45AM) : trope more

This does seem to be very good insert of what he is contemplating- the whole scene of this being an alternating trip over the crop shapes below – etc – wasn’t sure of the importance of this.

Jul 22

Yes, I think so but I thought more of the mother when I saw her, funny, I focused on the mother when the daughter also was visibly older, interesting.
