I’ve been prescribed ambien because I fucked up my sleep so bad that I don’t feel human any more but now I am googling all the horror stories and I am scarred to take it?!
Speaking as someone that spent six or seven years working in the motorsports/automotive industry, this is the most true comic I have ever seen in my entire life.
youre in his dms. im showing up to his gay orgy in brussels uninvited, with ecstasy pills in my bag which ARENT MINE btw, and then i try to escape through the window, holding onto a drainpipe when the police busts the orgy because of covid restrictments. we are not the same.
honestly Catholicism and Catholic culture are fascinating. from a distance! from a distance
it’s like seeing apex predators at the zoo. like it’s interesting but you’re grateful for the plexiglass and you cannot relate on any level to the people trying to jump over the fence
Idk man I think you should jump over the plexiglass. Nothing bad could happen we are 100% not going to burn you for heresy
listen as a Jew i have to tell you that number is historically somewhat less than 100%
I often wonder what my pets have named me. Humans are a visual species and like to name our pets based on their aspect or colour, so I think my dog with his smell-based worldview would come up with a smell name. I imagine something cute and cheerful and a little over the top in a dog way, like Applefriend Cake, because my laundry product gives my clothes a sweet, slightly apple-y smell which might remind Pandolf of happy memories of tasting cake crumbs. Unless he was feeling serious the day he named me, and basing himself on the fact that I read a lot and my hands often smell like book pages when I pet him, and went with something more decorous that translates to Paperdust Pal. Cat naming conventions are more enigmatic since they are less preoccupied with human affairs. My catgiven name was probably the result of a secret ballot vote among my cats, who decided upon something that resonates with cat history and heritage—a dated, unfashionable name if they felt a duty to honour one of their ancestors or if I’m lucky, a mythological figure from cat lore.
this is such a good post now i want to know what the cat i live with calls me
reading depressioncomix inspired me to do a little comic about my own day-to-day experience.
I’ve seen some comments on this being like “Oh he’s way too active this isn’t how severe clinical depression works!” which makes me a little sad because implying everyone’s experience of depression must be just like yours is insulting. This comic is about how depression still deeply affects me despite my attempts at a normal life but that it becomes almost mundane, you take a break to cry and scream and feel sorry for yourself but then you have to go back to doing whatever. I have almost no energy but I gotta live.
Saying you need to constantly be at your lowest and most dysfunctional in order to have Real Clinical Depression isn’t realistic. Learning to cope with this illness that will likely haunt me my whole life isn’t a bad thing.
