had a dream i worked at a restaurant and found a dollar on the floor while sweeping but my boss wouldn’t let me keep it, saying it belonged to the restaurant and therefore to him, and in response there was an escalating montage of me throwing his belongings into a nearby river
this culminated in me throwing his car into the river + then there was like, him talking to a reporter about it, informing them i had weighed it down with a roll of quarters and his “how to learn to drive” manifesto, a document of 100s of pgs that he “still referred to regularly”
why am i funnier when i’m unconscious
I FORGOT TO MENTION THE FUNNIEST PART WHICH IS THAT THROUGHOUT ALL OF THIS I WAS NOT FIRED AND STILL ACTIVELY WORKED THERE

my commission queue is updated for the week! "Is Wario A Libertarian" - the greatest thread in the history of forums, locked by a moderator after 12,239 pages of heated debate, well that was supposed to be the link to the queue but i had this copied instead + thats fine. one sec.
my commission queue is updated for the week! trello.com/b/OGcMv8c6/com… if you're a client and you'd like to see your position in the queue, or if you're just curious about what i'm working on, this is where you can check it out
based on my current pace i'm guessing my next availability is gonna be the beginning of next month! i'm trying something new with these batches, which is a kind of rolling waitlist; clients whose comm claims are a really good fit for my work but who happened to email me right -
alright guys. im honestly too tired to get super far into it, but i want to quickly type up the things that, to me, were the biggest takeaways from the patreon community live.
threading.
- they are not taking anniversary billing off the table, despite passionate and consistent feedback. over 200 creators attended the stream; in the very fast-moving chat, i think i saw 3-4 people who were for AB. everyone else was very, very vocally against.
- existing pledges wouldnt be changed by an implemented AB solution. this means if NOW u have X patrons pledging a total of Y$ for you on the first of the month, all of that will stay the same. this was my biggest concern + i dont understand why this wasnt communicated sooner.
kicking off the #ADHDInvasion with a comic about CONSEQUENCES, and how my lifelong failure to react to them has been a huge source of frustration for me and the people who rely on me. (1/2) #ADHDawarenessmonth
even worse, it makes me appear apathetic or careless to others, when in reality it weighs on me super heavily - i just struggle to show it. (2/2)
normally my comics have SOME semblance of advice on how to cope in them and i didn't get to that this time around lol; what i'll say is that it can be really hard to get past the idea of shame-based motivation when that's what's been modeled 2 u by parents/educators/bosses
lrt when i switched to full time, i thought after a lifetime of working under capitalism that 8 hours of art a day was mandatory + anything less was slacking off. in reality, on a perfect day, where the planets align + i feel really good, i am capable of like 6 hrs of focus total
and that entire 6 hours is not 6 continuous hours where a drawing implement is in my hand and moving. some of that is inevitably eaten up by stuff like emails, organizing invoices, looking up references, boring administrative stuff -- but it still takes my focus as a professional
now that my current situation means i haven't been able to work since my move, i guarantee u i have not been achieving 6 hours a day for MONTHS. (none of us are. the world is a disaster). but my art has improved a lot anyway! bc it's not ABOUT grinding yourself down to a nub
CROCKPOT IS SUCH A HARD WORKER look at how much of the diatoms/brown algae in the back he’s chewed through!!!! (featuring martini photobomb)
i wish i had a before pic but in all my recent pics of the aquarium i kind of avoided showing the back glass bc i didn’t like how it looked lol. admittedly part of it is i was letting it get covered on purpose for crockpots debut but even when i scrape its hard to get everything
