There was a series of these for a while on reddit on r/comics, and people would routinely hop into the comics to ask “wtf is going on?” and give their opinion on whether or not they like or dislike this brand of storytelling (aka random ‘snapshots’ of a story with nothing between them. It would be like reading a book by flipping to random pages and reading just that page, basically.)
Anyway I was pretty certain that it was the same artist making these, and I’m pretty much 99% sure I’m right because I found the ol reddit collection here: https://imginn.com/blujayooo/
I remember at the time being more on the annoyed side because some of the ‘issues’ had some pretty interesting stuff going on and I would have liked an actual story to go with them, but I find myself feeling pretty neutral about it now, mostly because I’m NOT invested or interested this go around.
I’m really confused by these strips. Are there more panels than the ones we see?
These seem more in an absurdist vein of comedy to me, rather than having or needing a particular punch line
The joke is that she’s still telling him not to give up after he’s already falling
that’s dumb, that’s not even a joke that works in this format
Maybe if he flaps his arms he can slow his descent enough to survive!

the joke is he’s falling to his death and someone is telling him “you can do it [survive]!”
I have the feeling the artist themselves don’t know what the fuck is going on. Which is fitting for the current zeitgeist if you ask me.
Or they say “fuck it”, do a yes amount of drugs and start scribbling. Which probably is what’s really happening.
My guess is that it’s a cynical take on optimism and maybe hustle-culture. Whatever people say, it’s futile anyway.
But maybe I’m just too dumb to get the “jokes” buried somewhere in them.😁
Glad I’m not the only one

Just keep reading it until it makes sense. Giving up is for pussies.
