Fun Fact
BuzzFeed published a report claiming that Tumblr was utilized as a distribution channel for Russian agents to influence American voting habits during the 2016 presidential election in Feb 2018.
Leave it to John Oliver for retelling the VERY infamous Thomas the Tank Engine episode (the “Henry’s punishment” episode) as a way to describe America’s current freight train industry!
This has been some of the most fun I've had this year! ^u^ Congrats to Forest and Bird for doing this cool election every year! Hopefully, thanks to John's influence, it'll spread more awareness of what they do and all the birds that were nominated that deserve attention!
So..as for this drawing...
I couldn't help but want fanart of this fantastic man in the birb suit the minute he strolled up to Jimmy's show with it on! Decided to draw him in it doing his famous heel clickin' after watching some of his old stand-up, too. 🥰
I started working on this Thursday (And finished around 9:30 this morning). This was a huge challenge. I didn't think drawing more detailed wings (or rather, wings more detailed than I usually draw them) was so tough. Anxiety be damned, with enough references I drew some pretty good wings.
Drawing John himself was a little bit of a challenge, too. I haven't drawn him in a VERY long time, so I hope I did a good job. ^_^
I might've overshaded the hell outta this, but it came out great and I had a lot of fun making it!
I'm open to constructive critiques. =)

(I usually record timelapses, but you don't want to see the one for this, it's such a mess 😅😆)
watching john oliver's show is really fascinating because he slowly but surely radicalizes you with huge segments featuring the most thorough and efficient takedowns of talking points propelled by some of the worst people on the planet, all backed up with well-documented research, all peer-reviewed by a diverse team of writers who help him based on their experiences with said topics, and then in-between eviscerating said worst people on the planet he makes charmingly lame jokes about dicks or something. perfectly balanced and all that. go white boy go

So I have not seen John yet (not in the US) but in anticipation and celebration of his return I wanted to list everything that the stupid fucking corporate greed of Big Production prevented him from covering over the past months.
Because we will NEVER E V E R blame the writers. It's all Business Daddy's fault.
Anyway here is my list of everything HBO stole from us: John Oliver Live Reaction Edition.
Toxic Gossip Train, because holy crap that still feels like a fever dream.
Donald Trump's mugshot, and the return of the We Got Him banner by proxy
The Oceangate incident, because holy crap it's a built in 'gate' debacle and was controlled by a Logitech controller.
The WGA Strike as a whole, because gawd dayumn that would have been some good damn journalisim
X. FUCKING X. Elongated Muskrat as a whole really.
I don't even wanna mention this but Kylie and Kendall debuting with Timothée Chalamet and Bad Bunny respectively because wow.
KING CHUCKY CHEESE'S CORONATION. LIKE WHAT THE HECK THE BRITISH MAN HASN'T COMMENTED YET.
The Grimace Shake, just for the lolz
Plenty more that i just can't think of rn cuz it's 3am i am surprised i am this coherent
And of course.
Of. Course.
The worst, most horrible thing corporate greed took from us when it comes to John Oliver reactions.
