People who are behind censorship and starting a witch hunt on art and artistic expression, "to protect the children" are the same people who do the same to protect actual predators from justice.
They are always the same.
I came here to say that I am becoming more and more convinced every year that Disco Elysium is the very work of art of the century.
But we must resist the Pale. And then perhaps one day we will see the phasmids. As a reward.

A portrait in pencil of Volition, a skill/inner voice of the main character of Disco Elysium. Volition vaguely resembles a face wearing a jagged crown. There is a large arrow shaped crack on the right side of the face, about where the eye would be. Its jaw warps as it reaches towards the chin. Its head rises in 5 flat spikes, leaving a concave recess where the top of the skull would be.
“No. This is somewhere to be. This is all you have, but it’s still something. Streets and sodium lights. The sky, the world. You’re still alive”

Digital pencil sketch. Harry and Kim from Disco Elysium game smoke together on a seashore near an old boat and some fishermen's gear. There's a distant building in the background that looks like an old lamp house and the sea waves in the distance.
Today I was drawing for myself to refill my cup before diving back into work projects.
And this is the result.
I'm so happy with it. I finally allowed myself to draw Harry and Kim, and I feel that It gives the right vibes.
I will colour it later.

Sign that reads "you can be a kind person with a good heart and still tell people to fuck off when needed"
Not sure who needs to hear this, but having boundaries does not equal being unkind.

"Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable." -- Banksy
Secondly, by accepting their monster, they do not relieve themselves of responsibility. Because those who consider themselves passive victims of circumstances often turn into the most terrible monsters. But Bangwon and Balduran make a cruel choice, knowing the cost
14. Ready to accept the monster within you.
Between passive “noble” death and surviving in the form of a monster, both chose the latter. But unlike the vast majority of such stories, both were able to preserve themselves, their personalities. How? Firstly, both have a meaning addressed to other.
Because somewhere in the heart of their desire to move forward, under many layers of protection, is the deepest passionate desire to be needed and significant for someone.
13. And yet, despite all the colossal vitality, both have an Achilles heel. Because of the trauma, both perceive betrayal very painfully - sometimes to the point of “burn it all with a blue flame.” Thus, in a suicidal impulse, they risk destroying what they fought for
it was thanks to the ability to separate the forced cruel decision and close relationships that they avoided the collapse of personality. That collapse that very often occurs when a person has to devalue a very significant figure.
12. Able to maintain warm feelings for someone who had to be killed - by them
This ability to combine incompatible things leads to the fact that they can still perceive as a friend the one they killed. And this may seem creepy at first glance. But in fact,
11. Touching penchant for nostalgia
Both “monsters” have a tender part of their soul that, with touching care, preserves the memories of what was dear. And although both believe they must be monsters to achieve their mission, both cling to their humanity more than they are willing to admit out loud.
Which of these images is real? Both. And the ability to accommodate these two sides within themselves is their unique power
10. I can be your angel.. or your devil
A characteristic feature of both is their contrasting duality. Balduran appears either as a beautiful “dream visitor” or as a monster with tentacles. In the appearance of Bangwon, something angelic and something devilish alternately appears
9. “I will be your shield, but you should be my sword”
To some, this metaphor may seem too objectifying.
But for them it means something different. They are used to living on the battlefield. Being a shield and sword for each other means being united in a common struggle
8. Both heroes have a similar scene - when they seem to give their chosen one a chance to kill them. They are really ready to take risks to ensure the trust. Because the expectation of betrayal in their souls intertwined with a huge thirst for close relationships
7. A close person says directly to his face that he should have died. This special pain when the one who should protect you, whose respect you are used to seeking, believes that it would be better for you to die
6. Killed his best friend and mentor - a legendary hero
Both characters have a similar history of trauma. They had to kill the closest person, a powerful personality who remained in the memory of people as a hero, defender. Both times because he did not accept them and was going to destroy them
5. Reputation of a monster
Balduran in illithid form instantly triggers the "he's a monster" reaction. Bangwon is also often called a monster, and this is also often done by those who have actually committed much more cruel acts.
4. Cares about people
You can have different opinions about the means by which they achieve power - harsh times (and sometimes other people's stupidity) put them before cruel decisions.
But overall, they sincerely care about their people - and this is demonstrated not by words, but by actions
3. The king of the abandoned
Bangwon presenting himself as a king building a "kingdom of the abandoned"
Balduran really built a city that welcomes everyone. It is also clear from the tests in Ansur's lair that the values of tolerance and acceptance of diversity are very important to Balduran
