HA HA HAPPY NEW YEAR (source)

Bonus panel on my patreon <3

On vacation this week (instead of last week), so.. consider last week’s new comic to be this week’s instead! New comic next week! .. I’m saying “week” a lot.

Thinking about Pixar’s Soul

22 was basically designated a problem soul, so the Jerrys tried to give her the most extraordinary humans to make it better, hoping that she would be inspired by the remarkable.

But that only exacerbated the problem. All these people that did big things only communicated to 22 that life wouldn’t be any good unless she found something big and great to pursue and accomplish. All along she needed to appreciate something small and humble. She just needed to want to live.

So, going into the new year, I want to live every day enjoying something small. I want to be in this life, every moment, every little joy.

PLANS FOR 2021: Read lots of gay books. Watch lots of gay movies. Wear lots of rainbow clothing. Plant lots of flowers and trees. Raise lots of money for the Trevor Project and other LGBTQAI+ supporting charities and organizations. Give my money to as few garbage companies and businesses as possible. Give books as gifts. Keep in touch with people via phone, text, zoom, email and gay-themed postcards. Eat well. Get physically stronger and fitter so I can punch nazis harder and run away faster.

But jokes aside, anon, those are amazing goals! Add “be happy” and “enjoy myself”, and I’m signing.

2021: I am not writing for any exchanges, bangs, collections nothing.

It is going to be a year of personal joy in my writing. What I am vibing, when I am vibing.

If I abandon a wip that is okay.

If I hyperfixate on one fic that is ok.

I will care less about kudos and comments and just about the story itself.

In 2021 my hobby is going to only enrich my life and not frustrate it.

Lily's Fandom New Year's Resolutions

Hey, guys! So you know how people are always drawing up (and then failing at, lmao) New Year's Resolutions lists? Well, I've had my 14-day trial of 2021, and I'm not sure I'd like to upgrade to premium 🤣🤣😐 Case in point, things have already been absolutely crazy, and there's a whole horde of things I wanted to do that just... never happened. And so I thought, maybe I could deal with the fandom part of them by drawing up a good old New Year's Resolutions list - and, hopefully sticking to it, unlike the traditional miserable failing.

So here we go... in my fandom year of 2021, I, Lily/daisylincs, resolve to:

Finish my Trick or Treat challenge 'tis done!! celebrationnnn 😍

Finish my agentsofchallenges Fluff Bingo

Deal with this:

Deal with that:

Deal with this:

Start and finish the three series I promised for my 100 Followers Celebration - Danny Boy & Quake, Sky's the Limit, and Spider-Dorks

Finish at least 20 things on my WIPs list, with the help of my Marvel Fluff Bingo

Not create any more WIPs until I've gotten the number down to below 200

I'll cross of resolutions as I finish them so we can see how spectacularly I fail how I work through them!! Unbelievable as it still is to say - happy 2021, guys! Crazy or no, I can't wait to see what this year brings us 💜💜

2020 reflections and thoughts going into 2021

2020 was the year many of us will remember as the year of the global pandemic, the whirlwind elections, and- more widely- the worst. but like with anything in life, this past year has had it’s highs and lows. don’t get me wrong; i don’t ever want to experience that gut-wrenching feeling that preys on the pits of your stomach as you drive past a massive freezer truck stationed in the street to collect dead bodies. but i think it’s important to look at every aspect of the situation. undoubtedly, 2020 saw some horrific moments, but we also saw some incredibly heroic ones. local grocery drives, teachers who showed up outside of students’ houses to help explain difficult lessons, and those who gave it their all on the front line are all reasons for us to have hope for humanity yet. so, even though this past year doesn’t feel like a bag of mixed apples, we really do have a lot to be grateful for. and so, without further ado, here are my 2020 reflections:

Allah ﷻ is with me, regardless of whether i’m in the masjid, at home, or in the haram. He ﷻ can be found ‏أين ما كنتم

one of the greatest forms of worship is serving the creation. praying nawaafil salah is undeniably a good deed, but the positive affects seem to stop at the one praying. when you help someone else, your impact has a butterfly affect towards your whole community

sometimes things are going to be messy and imperfect and that’s ok. you might miss assignment deadlines or not keep up with your journaling routine, but that really is ok. you are allowed to make a mistake. just recognize that it was a mistake and go forward accordingly

Allah ﷻ’s plan is the best plan. simple as that. don’t stress too much about planning out the perfect route to graduation or the next steps of your career to the point where if things don’t go as you had planned, you start to spiral. instead, have an idea of what you want to do but don’t be too attached to things following your track, since Allah ﷻ will protect you from what’s bad for you and only give you what’s best for you in the long run.

be there for others without any expectation of reciprocation. just do it for the sake of Allah ﷻ. He ﷻ will reward you. expecting from the creation instead of the Creator ﷻ is like asking a baby instead of your parents; it’s bound to leave you disappointed and under appreciated.

even if you struggled to get through today, be optimistic about a better tomorrow. it’ll help you stay grateful to Allah ﷻ for what He ﷻ has given you.

lastly, no matter how hard things get and how low you fall, remember Allah ﷻ is looking at your heart. your relationship with Him ﷻ is constantly evolving, so stay focused on doing the next best thing. if you missed your salah, be sure to pray the next one. if you prayed your salah, be sure to read quran. if you read quran, be sure to implement what you recited. always focus on the next good deed you can do, because we can never do enough for the Lord ﷻ who has given us everything.

going into 2021, i have some personal goals for which i’m hoping to implement certain habits to eventually achieve them. feel free to adopt some into your own routine as well:

more punctual daily azkaar

reading daily

a healthy sleep routine

dressing for success

less procrastination, more action

i kept it real simple this year because i know that these new habits will lead to overall self improvement, rather than achieving any one major milestone. i’ve got a lot to say about why i chose the items that i did, so check back for updates inshaAllah.

‏ونسأل الله ﷻ التوفيق
