VBS.TV is broadcasting a 12-part series called “Garbage Island,” which follows the adventures of angry kids that scoop up, examine and lament the drifting artificial refuse we’ve forcefed Mother Earth.

It’s an interesting series. But dude, what’s going on with the visual litter all over VBS.TV? It seems incongruous to make us feel glum about depositing commercial waste everywhere while blatantly selling us commercial waste. Those Stussy ads chafe my eyeballs.
