Hello, Bored Panda! I’m the Boston-based writer and artist behind the webcomic Bummer Party. I always dreamed of being a cartoonist when I was little — now I’m finally doing it!
This year, I challenged myself to draw 100 comics in 100 days. We're now 25 days in, and I still haven't gone completely mad. I'll call that a success!

😆 I’m the one praying that I can just accept that I’m feeling pretty good on those days! (Thank you, clinical anxiety- or not!)
I struggle to stay motivated pretty often — pushing myself to draw 100 comics in 100 days was my way of forcing myself to create things. Will anyone else care if I don’t complete the challenge? Absolutely not! But I’ll feel bad, and avoiding that is a great way to self-motivate.
A cat on the lap is physically, mentally, and legally binding. You physically CANNOT get up until the cat lets you.
The rule is, if a cat needs you as a bed, you are not allowed to move until they are done. Being a cat bed is just about the most important job a human can ever have.
I wouldn't go that far. Computers are too expensive to just throw away, but I am sure all pet-owners have thought about it.
Most funniest joke in a comic on bp, and least wannabe edgy and quirky comic on bp
Are you being sarcastic about the second part? It's funny (Though I wouldn't call it the funniest), but how many comics on here want to be "edgy and quirky"? (There's some but not that many.)

I tend to prioritize ones that are either sad or silly. If it’s both, even better. My most recent note is about an ear of corn exacting revenge on the woman who ate her niblet corn children. It’s sad, silly, and includes a pun — a huge win, in my opinion.
So far, I’ve mostly been drawing comics from my stock of old unused ideas. Once I run through those, I’ll have to start generating new ideas from scratch, and making that happen isn’t always easy. Most of my ideas come to me organically — sitting down and forcing my brain to be creative is harder.
Social media is weirdly one of the more personal topics I write about. My comics are largely consumed by people I don’t know and will never meet, but who know me. Thinking about that parasocial relationship too much can give you the heebie-jeebies, so I try and process it through humor and comics.
Good job. You finally reached that milestone. Now all you have to do is get through Monday without questioning your existence.
The one good thing about being owned by a cat is at least you know you have a purpose. Nothing else about your life might be going right. But if a cat needs you, your existence matters.

If you want to get US political, quite possibly MTG as Horse Representative, Marjorie Taylor Greene. But why would you want to? Edit: oops, House, not Horse.

...okay, that scared me a little. Didn't expect a realistic owl face in these simplistic comics, hahah
