A big fluffy tabby cat has noticed that her human is home. Racing through the garden, meowing like an air raid siren only to stop right next to Human's legs. Stropping back and forward only to be scooped up for a welcome home snuggle. All is well.

No wisdom from me this week, I don't know WHAT MY ISSUE IS (1/4) ADHD Alien Graphic Novel / Stream here: linktr.ee/adhdalien

Two panel comic. In the left panel, the ADHD Alien character is shown from the shoulders up against a pale yellow background. A speech bubble says, “I haven’t been able to work in weeks.” Another bubble asks, “Why not?” The character quietly replies, “I don’t know…” In the right panel, the same character has watery, spiral eyes and looks distressed against a peach colored background. A speech bubble says, “I don’t know what task to do first…” Another bubble reads, “no matter what I do, I’m always behind on tasks.”

Body swap tropes, and where we’re at in production (3/4)

Text reads: “Whether it be through the orientalist depiction of non-white cultures to create a mystical reason for the swap, or homophobic and transphobic jokes made whenever boys and girls swap bodies, or the misogynistic gender commentary of body swaps…this genre is infamous for making fun of marginalized groups in its comedy.
Visuals showcase an adult man and a boy being possessed by a mystical skull, a boy wearing feminine clothes and being laughed at, and a butchy girl transforming into a feminine girl.
Text continues: “The Switch Up is a story that centers the intersectionality of characters that are usually Othered and demeaned in body swaps. It’s about time they got the spotlight to tell their story!”

Visual shows cartoony Jes and Cin furiously drawing on their laptop and tablet as pages metaphorically get churned out.
Text reads: “As of right now, we’re in the process of wrapping up thumbnails before we head into roughs, inks, colors, and lettering! Graphic novels are a long marathon. So any support, hype or kind words can go a long way for the trek ahead of us. And while we obviously can’t show everything as a WIP, we’re excited to introduce these characters to you while we work our way through this new book.”
