Short Comic, While I Work On Something Bigger On The Side. It Is Nevertheless A Very Important Topic.

Short comic, while I work on something bigger on the side. It is nevertheless a very important topic. A lot of seabirds die because they eat plastic. They feed their chicks with the waste. It’s really tragic.

Adhd isn’t all bad, when your brain works, it WORKS

Me: Hey can you work with me today?

Brain: Sure.

Me: Really? That easy?

Brain: Only when it is. When the proper conditions have been met.

Me: So how do I even-actually you know what? fuck it. Fuck it. Fuck it. I don’t even care. Let’s do this.

PSA FOR THOSE IN DC AREA - PLEASE STOP FEEDING BIRDS (JUNE 2021)

An unknown transmittable illness is wiping out many native birds. Bird feeders, particularly uncleaned ones, are a major transmitter of disease. Please take them down for the meantime! Your birds will survive naturally without it - the impact of your ‘help’ could be far worse!

I recently came out to my mother's side of the family who are majority conservative christians and it went much better than I expected. Like, they were weirdly supportive. I only got one comment insinuating that I might possibly be going to hell but it came from my aunt and she's dying soon anyway so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Anyway, I'm telling them how shocked I am and that I honestly thought that they'd have more of a problem with it when my grandma is like "Well you know we've been through this before with your uncle Nicky" and I'm like "what" and so it turns out that my uncle Nick was born a Natalie, came out as a boy at 19, and my great grandma proceeded to pay for his top surgery and hormone therapy. In 1974. And I just had to process for a bit because my entire life no one has referred to him as anything other than he/him and his chosen name. I ask why no one ever thought to mention this and they're just like "tbh we forgot. It's been so long that he's been a man" This man is married. He has a wife and three kids. I ask my relatives how they went about having kids, whether through adoption or sperm donor or what and none of them know. Apparently he just told everyone that they were gonna be parents and then one day showed up at my grandma's house with a baby. No questions were asked. Just. He and his wife had a baby now and that was that. Three times. Weeks later when I finally talk to my aunt Sarah (Nick's wife) all she tells me is that neither of them have ever been pregnant and, I quote, "sometimes you just come into children". She phrased it like people use the phrase "come into money". Like children are something that just happens to you. I ask my relatives if any of them had a problem with Nick being trans at the time, saying I'd understand if they had negative feelings about it, as it was the 1970s after all. They were like "nope" and i was just like "you didn't think anything of it?" And my grandfather was like "these things happen" while the other adults nodded sagely. So I guess the moral here is that if my conservative christian relatives could accept my uncle as trans in the 1970s then there really isn't any excuse for anyone. And also my family needs to ask more questions because I'm fairly sure my aunt and uncle stole their kids.

I'm laughing my ass off at that last sentence- But I'm so glad your coming out went well! That's one heck of a way to find out you have LGBT relatives.

Pardon me for asking but, you.. dont like scrooge mcduck??

I don't because he's like. Literal rich person propaganda. He's a blatantly unethical billionare yet made to be likeable, like he doesn't steal from cultures and notoriously hoards his wealth from the needy (which is often played as a joke, quirk or gag), and a bunch of other shit. I know he's a cartoon character but this is a mirror image of what irl rich people do, and considering they contribute to real world evil it's hard to appreciate these things being turned sympathetic. The fact that he's explicitly painted to be "smarter than the smarties" and works harder than all others really makes me seeth because it's way too close to actual propaganda that claims billionares "earn" their money fair and square and puts the blame on others for the little income they have. Like poor people chose to be poor, or need to "work harder", or like they have complete control over their circumstances while these people are almost always born in the lap of luxury and do nothing but accumilate money from exploiting their workers and then spending it on personal pleasures that often have negative environmental and social impacts. I hate scrooge mcduck because he's basically the paw patrol of rich people and convinces others into believing billionares can be ethical, sympathetic heros that care about others, which suits Disney just fine considering they're one of the Scrooges of the real world.

Kinda weird how you say you’re against fascism yet you shut down anyone just because they share a different opinion than you. You guys are exactly what you say you hate... FASCIST! How come I have never seen any member of antifa actually sit down with someone and have a civil debate? I’ve only ever seen them yell and throw tantrums. Doesn’t look good for you guys, yikes.
