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.

    Me 100%! I would never, ever call to order a pizza... I would get nervous just going to the ticket counter to buy a train ticket. My mom tries to FaceTime me, I can’t even do that

    If human voices scare you more than what you see on the internet... Yeah, forget it, the species is doomed...

    I know what you mean. Though, for me, it isn't being scared it's the fact that some people will change the course of the conversation because they're not really listening. They interrupt, ask questions and before you know it you haven't been able to make the point you needed to. If I text I can get it said without them interrupting. Though obviously that hasn't been a problem when I've had to call emergency services! They tend to help you get to the point quickly. A friend of mine found that frustrating when trying to call the police once as she has no idea how to explain anything succinctly and so they had to keep cutting into her waffle!

    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?
