As we are (hopefully) approaching the end of the pandemic, spring is in full bloom and the mood is more optimistic. While my sourdough baking days are over, I am still "baking" a new drawing each day. Since the start of the pandemic, drawing has been a great way to deal with stress. As a silver lining, I've rediscovered drawing again. After a long day of endless zoom meetings, it's refreshing to work on a small creative project.
I get inspired by literally anything: a toilet paper roll, talking to friends and family, online shopping, scrolling Facebook, or when reading the news. My original series was "before and after" focused on how our lives have changed during the pandemic, but since then, I've explored a few additional concepts. One new theme I've been excited about is inanimate objects that can talk to each other, for example, what if a face mask could complain to a toilet paper roll about its job? Or what would a chair say to a butt? I found that these objects are perfect metaphors for daily life (or maybe I am losing it from being in the lockdown for too long.) I also like drawing silly charts and puns.
I hope you enjoy this freshly baked batch of drawings! Previous posts: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, and Part 6.

The toilet papers job still sucks more. Other than getting mouth mist, the toilet paper deals with some real poop.

Aaaah yes, when we grow up we'll be helping our grandkids with their covid asignment
Can't WAIT for that. Of course, the book on 2020 will be a series, split into 12 books. And they'll need to memorize everything about it.

Yes. Those of us who have been doing the right thing, and therefore the heavy lifting, this whole time, and have now taken the vaccine, should be able to reap the rewards. If you want in, you can STILL jump the line and take the vaccine and get back to life. If not, it's your right to sit outside in the goddamn parking lot. Buh bye.
There have always been certain shots required to travel out of the country. How is the Covid vaccine different? Not to mention enrolling in school, joining the military.
yes and then trump got covid the day after mocking biden for yes and before the debate of screaming at each other trying to keep up their old ass self esteem said hey dude how you doin today yes and then a fly was pence's head for 40 minutes how long ? forty minutes spelled f o r t y remember that and then they sold millions of fly swatters in hours that low wow the 20s were crazy i mean your only choices were old white man with white hair or an old white man with cheeto dust whigs damn
It's either that or just don't travel. Your choice.

Drained
Wait till you have to start putting real shoes on, that's gonna take at least fifteen minutes; you'll be drained before you leave the house 😂
So we should bear in mind that plagues, wars etc are as old as humans. We've survived worse and we can survive this. Be kinder to people and we can get through this Panda's.
Covid isn't the bubonic plague or WWII. If we don't get through this, I would lose all faith in humanity. All of it. But what you say is true. Be nicer, kinder, and we can get through this. :) Have a nice day!!!

If you miss people I got the perfect cure: Just look at Boredpanda at threads about "customers, anti-vaxxers, covidiots, Trumpfans"
If countries could have got everyone to self isolate for 3-5 weeks, at once, we could have got rid of covid, and a load of other communicable illnesses too. But no, people wanted their freedom.
Exactly what qualifies you to come to this conclusion .it doesn't make sense scientifically . this is a virus that spread. Staying home isn't going to do much

I live in South Australia and we have BARELY been affected. We had a false alarm 2 day lockdown and that was it haha. Gyms closed for 2 weeks. Just have to scan a QR code when entering businesses and use common sense with distance and that's about it
