Djinn tells the story of a young woman looking into her long lost grandmother's past as a concubine in a harem in the 19th century. The series is beautifully illustrated by Ana Miralles and written by Jean Defaux. This video shows her working her magic, creating the beautiful watercolor art for the comic in her studio. Enjoy ;)

Agreed.

Late-stage capitalism in all its unglory is pretty plainly brutal, as I observe it. Except for Finland, haha.

For sure. I'd argue what makes it even more brutal is the friendly, artificial face it puts on the system. You can especially see it on commercials and mainstream tv. It makes it even more repulsive when the conditions of capitalism are given some utopia, Fisher Price look.

Apparently people are pretty happy in Finland, at least that's what that happiness index article said recently. Otherwise I no fuck-all about Finland lol.
