Some sample pages from Andrew Loomis’s series on how to draw comics, 1939-1961, concerning perspective and composition. (The changes in font and layout stem from the fact the pages come from different prints.)

I tried to collect the most useful pages, but of course I’m limited to only 10 images per post.

This is a follow-up of sorts of the Disney “how to draw comics” handouts I posted earlier, and which can be found HERE.

I can’t believe I’m using this dumbass website to say this. I don’t really have any other place to go and I just need to scream something into the void. If you really care to read this whole thing you’re a real one.

Here’s my confession.

Last Friday (oct 8th) I fucked up. I got drunk with my roommate and her friends in our dorm. We were supposed to drink every time there was a cringe moment in the movie we were watching. It was the new Cinderella, so I drank a whole lot.

I’ve never been seriously drunk before, and I’m honestly not even old enough to drink. (sorry). It was a new experience and I didn’t know how to handle myself. I knocked over drinks, plates of food, I couldn’t stand without almost collapsing. I was out.

I made jokes with my roommate about her being racist. To be clear, she’s black, I am white. For some reason I thought it was funny at the time; we’ve made funny jokes in the past about race, so I guess I thought it was okay. The only reason I know I made this joke was because she told me the next day. I was so drunk that I literally don’t remember making that joke.

What I do remember is grabbing my phone and immediately sending videos to my close friends, and posting on my Close Friends story on Instagram.

I sent a video of myself saying “I diagnose you as trans, haha” to someone I’ve known for 5 years, who is not trans (code name Macy). I misgendered them, and I thought it was a joke. I know that I was wrong. I would have never said that while sober.

I sent a video to my roommate saying “I diagnose you as lesbian, haha” for similar reasons, I was drunk and I thought it was funny. My roommate has been open to me about her sexuality, and if I remember correctly she told me she’s bi. I mislabeled her and I know that I was wrong.

Then I posted videos of me talking on my Close Friends on Insta about how I’m pro-life, about how I believe the Biblical End Times are coming and that we need to get right with God soon. I said that I pray for my friends who are atheist. I can’t remember what else I said, because I was drunk.

I went to sleep that night giggling to myself thinking that the night had gone well. I woke up the next day and my roommate told me she needed space, and I knew I fucked up.

She sat me down later that day and chewed me out, rightfully so. I knew that I had made a lot of really insensitive jokes. She told me too that she’s not in need of my prayers, and doesn’t want me to pray for her because she doesn’t need to be “saved.” This, I agreed with. I had been insensitive and rude, regardless of my intentions.

She told me about the struggles of those who choose to get abortions, and that even if I had been sexually abused in my past, I’ve never had to deal with a pregnancy, so I should not be speaking about whether an abortion is an option or not. She also told me that she’s afraid that I’m going down a path in my life and I need to check myself. She spoke about how she thinks I prioritize my partner more than my academics. She said that my Catholic high school might have influenced me too much.

This I did not agree with - I think I’m entitled to my own opinion about abortion, and I think that my priotities are well balanced. Regardless of the status of my relationship I don’t think it was warranted to make assumptions about something that was not involved in my offenses.

In any case, I have respected my roommate’s request for space this week. I also apologized to Macy for misgendering them over text. They responded by also asking me to examine my experience from the Catholic high school that we both attended, and determine whether they influenced me too much. I didn’t have the words to respond, and so I left Macy of read, and they unfollowed me.

I’ve been trying to lay low and not rock the boat since last weekend. I’ve barely spoken to anyone but my boyfriend. I’ve been miserable and guilty and sad. I know I was wrong but I’m really trying to take their advice seriously and determine what I, as an individual, believe.

But honestly I think I just might be cancelled.

Today I called another friend from high school (code name Kim) and told them that I felt really guilty about this whole situation and I didn’t know how to make it better, but I wanted to make things right. Kim told me that yes, I fucked up, but I have to make my own beliefs and not just listen to what people tell me. I thought that they understood, but I think I just lost yet another friend, because they took me out of our group chat and told me politely that I could come back in when I “figure things out”. I told them “thank you for giving me a chance, I’m trying”.

Kim has been one of my closest friends aside from my boyfriend. I love Kim dearly, they’ve been someone who has helped me through some of the darkest times of my life. Being kicked out really fucking stings.

Am I allowed to feel upset and sad about all of this? I fucked up, I know, I get it, I was an asshole. I don’t want to make excuses about myself, but I was drunk. I didn’t know how to handle myself. It’s not like I said all this stuff with intention to harm anyone. I thought I was being funny, and I know now that all those jokes were insensitive as hell. I’ve learned.

I love all of my friends and sure they have different religious beliefs but I’ve never judged them for it. When I do pray for my friends, I pray for their health and wellness. I’m not trying to save anyone who doesn’t want to be saved. I’m not looking to evangelize. I didn’t mean for any of this to happen.

I feel so alone right now and I feel like my whole world is falling apart because I made some dumb comments when I wasn’t even fully aware of my surroundings. I know I can’t expect to be forgiven, but I’m really trying to change and make things right and I feel like I can’t get out of this hole that I’ve dug for myself.

I’m really sorry if anyone involved in this situation follows me, I tried to make sure this is as anonymous as possible but I don’t know how to control who follows me and who doesn’t on here so if you see this, please know that it was never my intention to hurt you and I’m really sorry. I value our friendship so much and I don’t want to lose it.

But I also don’t want to have to change all of my beliefs in order to keep our friendship. I’m sorry for the things I’ve said but I’m not sorry for having my beliefs and I’m not sorry for praying for you. I pray for anyone and everyone, even people I dislike.

tl;dr i made hurtful jokes to people i care about while drunk and I don’t know how to make it right again with them

These jokes hit hard for me because I’ve seen the kind of culture that creates situations like this, but I’d like to add I guess a sympathetic touch to this...

Christian youth are often taught that sexual feelings and thoughts are really only permissible within marriage, and that they’re basically supposed to be sexless beings before that. This leads to them being rushed to marry the first person they feel attracted to because waiting longer increases the discomfort/feeling of “sin.”

But furthermore, “dating” within this subculture is usually very atomized and sterile. You barely have physical contact. You often aren’t allowed to date until a very late age, and even then, it’s incredibly limited.

This happens because these people are experiencing really being in a relationship for the first time ever when they don’t have the maturity to deal with it. They’re making all their relationship mistakes the very first time. They haven’t had much time to figure out what kind of person they are compatible with. They probably don’t even know what they’re sexually attracted to because they’re taught to be so disconnected from it. They’ve never been alone in a bedroom together with a date and now they’re sharing finances and everything. It’s “hard” because they are not prepared in the slightest.

This doesn’t happen because either of the people involved are bad or foolish people. It happens because they were failed by a culture that forces them to make a vastly life changing decision before having ever been able to make a tiny mistake and learn from it enough to figure out what they need and want. And it’s sad.

@christians y’all need to do better by your young people. let them make mistakes, learn, and grow through that

@the people in the notes actively calling the woman stupid: please do not do that. not only is it extremely misogynistic to say that women in bad relationships are there because it’s their fault for being stupid, it’s also just wildly dismissive of how DEEPLY damaging and manipulative purity culture is

i mean, maybe she is stupid. But she should have been allowed to be stupid with her boyfriend at sixteen when she didn’t have to change her entire life around a single decision. Stupid leads to mistakes. Mistakes lead to learning.
