Sometimes I’m like, “I’m not doing so bad. I’m doing okay, actually. But I’ve got a bit of a headache, so lying down for a minute would probably help.” Bc I’ve learned to listen to my body and pace myself.

—And then I lie down, and realize “woah. Okay, that was more of a headache than I realized. And I am breathing way harder than I should be for someone currently lying down, formerly standing and doing nothing else remotely strenuous. And it’s taking a long to go back to a reasonable breathing pattern. Also, I can think more clearly now. I didn’t even realize I was foggy.”

I'm finally caught up with Penny Arcade wooo I didn't think I'd be able to read almost 30 years of comics in like two weeks but geez I guess the Penny Arcade fixation is REALLY strong ☹️

I have so many thoughts after that, especially on how the website's structure changed to accommodate to the Internet's expansion and the fanbase using it, how the blog posts and comics differ from back then too (analyzing the difference in writing and art is so so fun I recommend it) and how much you can tell Jerry and Mike both evenly progressed in their own field of work over the years to now fully master their art (gosh I sound so corny Tycho is rubbing off on me I fear ☹️) ANYWAY tl:dr Penny Arcade is wonderful but now I have to wait for updates like most readers do and I'm feeling INTENSE withdrawals so I might just go and reread everything from the beginning 🤒

From Jerry/Tycho:

"Ah, yes! This torment is well known in an era where you discover Severance or Pluribus late, and it's good times, good times for everybody, and then you just end up in the fucking pit with everybody else. I knew a girl in high school who really liked Mentos, but she would only eat two or three Mentos at a time, or even just a single Mento (which I assume is the singular but cannot actively prove). If only you had taken her lead! You'd be fuckin' swimmin' in strips."

Every moment with #ChronicIllness takes energy—and energy is always in short supply. Trying to do too much, too fast, for too long can lead to #Burnout that hits hard. So, I’m learning to pace myself. Move slowly. Weave new things into my life gently, one step at a time, without pushing past my limits. It’s not about giving up—it’s about living smarter within my reality. 💜 How do you pace your days with #ChronicPain? Drop your tips below—I’d love to hear them.

as all the october drawing challenges are being released soon, this is a reminder for myself as well as anyone else it pertains to: breathe, relax, and bite off less than you can chew. there’s no need to stress ourselves out to keep up with something as silly as social media
