reminder series: bleak yet comforting thoughts.

i specifically chose animals that are (or believed to be) extinct due to human influence: thylacine, great auk, baiji, west african black rhino, golden toad, dodo, passenger pigeon, and quagga. there are many other species i could have included. the plants are also based on extinct species, but i found much less information about extinct plants, unfortunately.

the text doesn’t necessarily relate to each animal or their extinction. it’s all basically the same idea: let’s all be nice to each other, because today, the universe is vast and incomprehensible, we are all suffering, we are all going to die, and we’re all in this together. for today.

i’m busy for a couple weeks with conventions, but after that i’m considering a companion series with ancient extinct animals, so feel free to send me your favorites :)

Rhythm of the Night

With the coming of the dawn, I look beside me at the pillow, gone. Another night: the moon gives her blessing, another day, sun scorching, depressing. So I'll work, and I'll eat, and I'll try to push on, knowing that without, my verse ain't even a song. Keep on pushing and pressing through all this grind of the days, but it's hard to keep on going through this fog of malaise. When the rhythm of the night is all that I know, gets wicked friggin' hard to keep up the flow.

Hello all! In light of recent events, the webcomics community wants our transgender and nonbinary friends to know that we stand behind them. We have teamed up to create this art print/poster, and will be selling them here. We will be donating all the proceeds to Trans Lifeline, an organization focused on providing front line intervention for trans people in crisis. Please check out this list of trans and non binary comic creators as well. We love and support you! —Your webcomic friends

Hi again! I’m happy to come back and report we were able to donate over a thousand dollars to Trans Lifeline! Thank you all so so much, we are really happy about that.

Some of you have asked, and yes, this print will remain up indefinitely. That means I will be checking back every couple of weeks and sending over all proceeds to Trans Lifeline and you can buy a print any time in the future.

I just updated the list of creators with some suggestions, though it is still a work in progress and I’ll also be going back and adding to it every now and then.

Most importantly: You can also give to Trans Lifeline directly.

Thanks so much everyone!!

Executive dysfunction is like all of your abilities are on cooldown and you’re mashing buttons to try to do anything but your brain is just like “i can’t do that yet. that’s still recharging. i can’t do that yet. that spell isn’t ready yet. that’s still recharging.”
