Donald Glover has been pretty active as Childish Gambino lately, having released his Because the Internet LP and announcing "The Deep Web" tour. Now, he's flexing his acting skills again in a new, ruminative short film dubbed Chicken and Futility.

The slice-of-life sketch plays out with Gambino and a couple of gamer pals weighing in on such topics as how to properly roll a joint, the political implications of eating at Chick-fil-A, and the futile instincts of light-seeking moths.

It's not exactly a laugh riot, but you can peep the trio's introspective convo, which caps with a biscuit-selling scheme, down below courtesy of Complex .
