Basile Soussan, “Drôle de chauve-souris”
ink on paper, 2026
I will never forget the flight I took to Paris in college and the tiny adorable child in the seat in front of me with his nose pressed against the window looking at the lights and squealing "OOOOOOH, C'EST MAGNIFIQUE!!!"
REAL!!!!
REAL!!!!!
my friend and i had to leave an ice cream shop once because a small child who sounded exactly like JFK ordered some rum raisin and we couldn’t fucking handle it
Oh, my God. I live in NYC & had this reaction and had to cough back insane bouts of squeals and laughter when I heard a little child going on the escalator cry out and point while in a very VERY posh British Tourist accent:
"MUMMY! O MUMMY LOOK AT THAT! LOOK AT THAT CURIOUS OBJECT MUMMY LOOKIT! LOOK IT THAT OBJECT, IT'S CURIOUS, LOOK! MUMMY LOOK!!🫨 LOOOOK AT THAT OBJECT, MUM MUM MUMMYYYY!"
Even when a child is 2 literal steps away of Tiny Tim saying "God bless us, everyone!" you can still witness that same beautiful look of TOTAL apathy and sheer exhausted aggravation that all toddler Mom's have.
-As an addon, I gotta bring up mention of my father. My dad is an immigrant of Yiddish Hungarian parents who moved from Tel Aviv over 40 years ago to the United States and he moved to Brooklyn Coney Island and as a result has a very distinct thick accent; it is apparently so heavy that even those back where he is from in all declare he has the thickest weirdest accent they ever heard. People mistake him for being Greek, Arabic/Palestinean, Italian, Czech, and all manner of other things and it drives him nuts. Even when other people speak Hebrew and Yiddish to him, they are baffled by what he says back.
He basically sounds like the gruff, crabby version of this guy:
-So, we as a family all love to play "Magic The Gathering" and my dad, he is not the best at not being a sore loser. He is also the sort of card player who just sticks in whatever random cards he feels like into his deck, good or bad, without often bothering to actually read the card text about what it does. He gets frustrated whenever the rules get too complicated, when their cards have too much English text, or if they have any overly unique unspoken requirements to be met for certain things to go down- which if you know your MTG, is quite literally the entire premise. It's simple to play, but it's also a thing for game stores to have 'card lawyers' in them for a reason.
So whenever we play cards with him he inevitably will whine about something going not to plan; and when he does, we all burst into a round of
"SUSIE I DON'T LIKE THEEZ GAME! IT KEEP CHEATING ON ME!"
"ARNOLD MAKE THE CARDS BETTER FOR ME THEY ARE NOT FAIR"
"look I CANT REad good, you expect me to sit and READ CARDS ALL DAY??"
He gets soooo aggravated, it is delicious....
-should I feel bad as a White American mocking his Middle Eastern accent, a thing which even after 40 years he still feels sensitive about?.... perhaps....but also he's a sexist racist Zionist albeist homophobic grouch. He's done a lot for me and undeniably cared for me, but also irreversibly repeatedly traumatized tf out of myself and my family ages ago. He often beat me or threatened to kick me out growing up, but it was always for bad behavior things, never ever for anything political or to do with identity. (I'll never forget how when I came out to him he didn't call me slurs or gave a single shit about me being not straight, he acted completely unsurprised and resigned; but instead went on a fat phobic rather uncouth but undeniably morbidly funny rant; about how I should crush on someone who 'wasn't such a disgusting fat cow!....You deserve better and should find a hot woman, don't you know how many better looking lesbians are out there???'...)
He always hated Trump and calls him a buffoon, but somehow continues to like his *party* and hates the idea of a woman president.
His whole family are a mixed variety of immigrants, his wife is a Ukraine immigrant, so to him Putin = bad, BUT, any bombing Iran is 'good', and he hates war and Netayahu, but also is highstrung Islamphobic, he hates environmental destruction and oil drilling to him is bad, yet AI technology to him is also 100% cool, inevitable and good. He hates woke stuff and complains about gay culture yet he goes to every Broadway play that ever happened, and he thinks Welfare and Socialism is bad, but he worked in a fucking union, and he thinks unions are bad and are too greedy; except when they are not and are about teachers. He has angst about illegals and too many junkie homeless people, and he supports ICE doing what they do, EXCEPT whenever he doesn't, and doesn't agree with any of the violent crackdowns or harming of LEGALS of any race, which yes I know, doesn't realistically make any fucking difference...
SO....*sigh* ...yeah...y'know. 🤷 ...Life is complicated folks. People are complicated. People can be weird and contrarily dumb sometimes and there's just no wrapping our heads around it til they figure this shit out on their own or get less biased news sources.... So. Yeah.
I'd say this is proportional levels of derision and pettiness against an old eccentric crankpot dad.
Sometimes I really want to take everyone under the age of 24 (as of 2026) by the shoulders and say:
"I'm really sorry that lockdown and the ongoing pandemic interrupted pivotal educational and social/emotional development moments for you. You have an uphill battle towards adjusting to a lot of community based efforts because you experienced a mass trauma during an incredibly important time in your life where you should have physically been around your peers learning to engage in shared community. There is no "but" here, I'm genuinely really sorry. Something many of us consider key points in our interpersonal growth as youths was taken from you, not without reason but without care for its impact on you. I hope you know we are eternally allies in our struggles and if that is something you struggle to know I hope you can learn it someday."
Because so many of the angriest, most disenfranchised people I see on this website are under 24 and I often try to put younger people's behavior in the context of where they might have been 2020. I've seen the impact on my siblings and their peers+friends first hand, all ages 18-24. We've talked about how its impacted them, the isolation, the attachment to the internet, the anxieties and phobias and fears it developed in them due to the pandemic, the political unrest, and the responses to both that we've seen since. I know they're not the only ones and I know how much being marginalized also influences that impact too.
It's terrifying. I know it must be terrifying for a lot of the young people on Tumblr too. I hope one day we're able to bridge all of those complex feelings into something collective and positive so we can do our best to prevent similar traumas from happening to future generations.

She should be at the club
Baby mouse had earplugs in the sketch and I straight up forgot to ink them pretend they're deep in there
Meanwhile not at the club:
I was so enamored by the party shrew this morning I had to doodle her in my lab notebook at work
