The komusō (literally “priest of nothingness” or “monk of emptiness”) were a group of Zen Buddhist mendicant monks who wandered the roads of Edo period Japan. They would play elaborate tunes on their bamboo flutes as they begged for alms, their faces (and thus, their ego) completely concealed by a distinctive hood woven from straws or reeds. Unsurprisingly, many were recruited as spies or were actually ninja or ronin in disguise, and eventually their temples and their schools were abolished for meddling in material affairs instead of spiritual ones.

For context, there's a whole series of these paintings that make up a large mural where death dances with people from all walks of life, but when I was younger I didn't realise that 'Tod' is the German word for 'Death' , so I assumed this was simply a medieval Garfield-esque comic strip featuring a skeleton called Todd

I don't watch euphoria, but I gather from the clips circling round that the rich couple are actually poor because they have to save their leftover burgers, which as a European, is very funny
