"Bleeding Ink" is a webcomic that I have returned to only at the worst periods of my life. My unemployed twenties, my mother's cancer, and now the hunger games of 2020. And if ever there was a time that I needed to cope and laugh, it has been in the post-apocalyptic wasteland of 2020.
This year, with no constancy at all, I have drawn in comic strip form the little scene-lets of my own experiences with the pandemic, but through the eyes of Bleeding Ink's lead character, Horus Flowerchild. It has been an invaluable therapy tool. I am using a traditional pen and ink, with tone sheets and digital color.
I am very pleased to share the 2020-themed comics with my fellow Pandas.
If you enjoy these, please feel free to read the whole Bleeding Ink series, Covid and non-Covid-related, at the comic's website. Or you can follow all of my work, comics, and film on my Instagram.
Happy New Year, everyone!

I Love My Cat
Since working from home, our cats seem to feel that we have rightly become their full-time instead of part-time servants.
Am I the only one who has a cat that come looking for me to give me cuddles and I'm the one being aloof?
Apparently ;) Actually it can depend on the cat's gender, males are generally more affectionate, females varying degrees of aloofness. Having cats all my life , I can attest to this. I currently have 1 male, 5 females, and this definitely holds true with them. Boikat absolutely drives me nuts, wants to be on me constantly. One of the females,Shelby, needs to be near, but not touching me. Sheba needs to be in the same room, preferably a few feet away. Abby and Bunbun are kittens still developing their personality, and Mirabel is my wild child, sometimes on top of me, mostly going her own way somewhere in the house

HAHA! I have a friend who has been working from home and her cats have loved every second of it. Then they started rotating each a day a week to go in. They were inconsolable when she left. The next week she had to go in, COVID ticked back up, and she knew she was back to working from home. But she got up that day, showered, and dressed like she was leaving and let them "persuade her to not leave". These cats were the equivalent of someone who won 400 million in the lottery. Much happiness. So great.
The times people are sick of relationships,family,and sadly pets don’t like us humans as requested you take a day off from spending time with those people you are sick of
And not who you love!you have to spend time with who you love it’s more than enough for somebody to witness there family avoiding contact with them

I just find it funny that half of World's population treat toilet paper as the holy grail without which they can't live, & the other half don't even use it.

Introvert Memes
No extroverts just whine in real life constantly at how introverts got it so good or how we can remain so silent & collected?? Or constantly pressurizing us into convo. But ya angry meme sounds good. It's traumatizing to hear people screech on a daily basis.
It's Over! (But Not Really)
