This is self-deprecating self-parody at its best. It is about false charity double standards pretend compassion it is about The worldwide scheme known as climate change which is in effect the money spinning scam which leads to so many businesses being created based on the scam. One of them being shown here.

  • It is about mocking a culture which has become a cartoon cutout of itself and it does it brilliantly.


  • It is so funny and so second or third degree that it might seem a lot of rectilinear/literal people reviewing this series cannot see any of it. They may look at it surface-value and see nothing. The opposite of those panels on the "neutral" houses. That too is hilarious. Really good humour is like this ; on some levels it is invisible; it works deep down or like an aftertaste; it is not in your face


It dances around the back of your mind like a temple dancer. The pace is at times a little slow; which increases the awkwardness not that it needs increasing

Overall very clever and subtle and says a lot about the 2020s in some circles .... it is no masterpiece but for me a good 7.
