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.

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...

I had a co-worker whose mom claimed she had no idea she was pregnant until he was born. He was her fifth child or so, so I guess the common pregnancy symptoms aren‘t as severe as they are with your first one, but... how?

It sounds completely insane but It's a real thing. It's called cryptic pregnancy. There's usually no sign of usual pregnancy symptoms like weight gain, tenderness or even swelling of the stomach. Surprising thing is, most times the babies are usually healthy when they are given birth to, if the mother had a decent lifestyle prior to the birth that is. It blew my mind when I found out about this.

My mother had a last minute X-ray before exploratory surgery for a possible stomach tumor. Turned out she was 8 & 1/2 months pregnant with my brother. She was 40 and had only gained 5 pounds.

My mom didn't know the first six months of my little sister (but have two toddlers, I can imagine you are tired anyway), but then my little sister didn't know for 7,5 months.. so. (and you couldn't see anything, I noticed the line on her stomach and told her she was. Surprise to find out how long. And then a scramble to get all the items needed)
