As a kid, I desperately wanted a dog so I would draw and write comics about a girl and her dog. When I was in high school, I would draw and write comics about my friends and the boys I had crushes on. After high school, I stopped making comics for a long time. I can't put my finger on why exactly, but I lost focus on a lot of things I loved in my late teens.

In 2019, a local bar/arcade hosted a comic competition for Halloween. I entered and was awarded "most horrifying" for a comic about a dentist pulling out an unwilling patient's teeth before putting them in his own mouth. Pretty gross, right?

Drawing my first comic in years was the spark that reignited my love for the art form. From there, I started drawing punny Pokémon-themed comics and then eventually comics about my daily life. After weeks of drawing a character that looked a lot like myself, I came up with my green-haired space bun design and the rest is kind of history.

My best ideas always come to me right as I'm drifting off to sleep—I think the human brain is at peak absurdist when between awake and asleep (and a little tipsy).

Ah I love it when someone in the group cares about what I'm saying, I'm a polite person so I don't talk over others but people do that to me a lot.

honestly, the only "support" we get from big companies is a rainbow flag added to their products for pride month and then once pride month is over it's taken off again (also, it's annoying how they advertise gay men as feminized, lesbians as masculine and all trans people as non-passing)

Nothing stoogy about it! They matter just as much as everyone else on the sexuality/gender identity spectrum :)

Gay specifically means homoseuxality. Queer is a very broad term meaning not cisheteronormative in some way. Some people don't like the term due to its history as a slur but others like it as a nice broad label that helps them so they don't have to label themselves specifically. Ultimatly it depends on each LGBTQ+ persons personal preference regarding the word queer.

Bras are just masks for breasts. But not masking your breasts doesn't risk anyone's health. Wear a mask, ditch the bra.

I was across someone's table and that person hit me in the head when he tried to grab it with chopsticks. He squeezed it too hard and it let go and hit me...
