I am a designer based in San Francisco. During the day, I work for a tech company and look at a lot of business charts. In my spare time, I've been also enjoying making some fun Venn diagrams and various charts. It turns out that making a chart is a quick and effective way to communicate absolutely any concept, from dating to procrastination.
Some charts are funny, some pretty dark, and some surprising... but I tried to keep them all honest. They are inspired by what's happening in my everyday life. Hope you'll find these enjoyable. If you like these, follow me on Instagram.

I am originally from Russia, but I’ve lived in San Francisco for more than half of my life. I’ve graduated from San Jose State with a degree in Graphic Design and build my career working for tech companies in Silicon Valley. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling and cooking.
It's the yellow type that tends to get promoted, and then companies wonder why they're tanking. Do humans EVER learn??
I’ve loved drawing since I was a child and took some art classes, I’ve been doing it on and off as a hobby.. my main job is in product design. Drawing is a form of therapy, something I do because I enjoy creating humorous concepts and drawing. Sharing with other people helps to make the world a more fun place. Thanks to Bored Panda for sharing my work.
I try to care as little as possible. It's difficult though
relatable to an extent that i feel that my computer is stalking me lmao
The most difficult part is looking at the blank sheet of paper. When I start drawing I have no idea what it’s going to be about, but somehow the idea just pops in my head. The topics I cover vary, but I pretty much cover anything about daily life struggles, from the Covid pandemic, work-life, and just being a human.
Need is there bare minimum, you could leave in a big closet with food and a bathroom... Is a dreary existence but your basic needs are met
If you asked me what style I have I would say my style is “very badly drawn.” I’ve started these drawings every day during the lockdown. I’ll continue drawing as much as I want to and hopefully won't get bored of them soon. My inspiration comes from funny things I notice. Every day I see something funny that I want to capture. If you want to create art I have some advice for you. Just do it. Don’t strive for perfection, it’s the enemy of productivity.
Or moving the blooming cat off your keyboard?

Yes! Corporate America needs to realize that people can be productive and still be at home. Just wait until millennials start moving into upper mgmt positions.
I’m a millennial and I don’t like using my home office. I literally rent a space I don’t technically have to have because I need the separation. I’m not corporate America but I think people with corporate jobs probably need to be in the office where their head is in the game and they feel the pressure of having supervision. I think shorter work days and shorter work weeks is better than working from home.

you would have to flip these for me, i guess except for the traffic part
You forgot talking, petting and getting treats for your fur-baby at home.
Sitting in traffic and getting lunch doesn't count towards working hours, they should be outside the circle or the circle bigger to make any proper comparison. Also still, productivity in the office is higher than at home (despite many people working from home claiming otherwise).
I suppose that differs per person and kind of job too

There needs to be another column for "how much you can convince others you know".
From my experience it looks big and heavy but it is actually weightless, with self love should be easy to remove.
People always say live in the moment, but it's not so easy in practice
Seriously can we make spam calls, texts, and emails illegal? They’re so annoying it must stop.
That guy is going places though! That’s literally how you do it. Constantly chasing.
My business partner says “you have the fear of going backwards WHILE you have the drive to move forward. Most people are only one or the other but we are both.” It has to be both to succeed on that higher level.
Wow... That was a lot of shitty pretentious arrogant toxic-positivity personal development bullshit...
