last time the US did this, we had 700k covid deaths because bolsonaro refused to get vaccines in time and before that, we spent 24 years in a dictatorship; our latest democracy is only 38 years old and it's being threatened once again we cannot let another bolsonaro be the president again

Forgotten Island is one of the best animated films of the last 5 years and it is everything people have been begging for with animated films. 💕 Original, genuinely GOOD script, spectacular visuals, unique story, solid humor- Just EVERYTHING!! If this thing bombs wtf are we doing???!

I'm barely surviving WITH a day job and don't even have the energy to engage with my hobby. At least with the option on the right I'd be able to set my own hours and rest. TBH I don't think I've ever burnt out on hobbies but I'm perpetually burnt out on a day job.

7am - 5:40pm shift today. I am so fucking tired but it legit could've been worse. I haven't been able to get out before 6:30pm on a Sunday in weeks if not months. It's been worse lately since my 9am became a 7am but I am just SO relieved I didn't have another 12 hr day today.

OH. right! i get it now!

i get why AI is so depressing to me. because covid already shrunk my world to almost nothing, where almost all of my life revolves around socializing and watching videos on the internet (which is being ruined by AI) and creating creative works through coding (which is being ruined by AI), often using open source tools and libraries (which are being ruined by AI)

i already had so little and now even that is being rotted away before my eyes

Got off before 4pm today! Wooo!!! My brain craves a walk outside in the nice weather but my body is begging for mercy. I'll inevitably have another 12 hr Sunday tomorrow and I should rest instead of getting exercise. . . . . . . . . BUT IT'S SUCH A NICE DAY OUT!!!!!

I'm so burnt out lately. I'm just counting the days until the new person is out of training and can start to take on a bit of the burden. Also counting down to my PTO days. I'm desperate for a break!

Had a check-up today. Mentioned to my doctor that I've been so tired lately that breathing feels like a chore and she ordered bloodwork and suggested I set boundaries at work to not be so tired and also to talk to my psychiatrist about adjusting my meds to get me through the current work stress.

Everyone and their mom has had a comment about this now but I guess I feel the need to chime in: I think a lot of the comments are really misunderstanding that this is not a “fanart bad” post, this is “it sucks to go to an indie comics show and see multiple tables without a single comic” post

things for kids are typically bright gaudy colors because that's what kids, you know, the ones they're made for, like also haven't there been studies that showed being surrounded by colors is good for kids' brain development?

I'm so tired. Had to get up at 5am for work. Been at work since 7am and I'm still not done. Haven't even gotten a chance to start stocking. God at this rate it's going to be a 12 hr work day.

Just got off work an hour ago. Have to be back in 11 hrs and 10 minutes and I still have to shower and put away groceries when they arrive which means I'll probably only get another six hours of sleep... Yay.

WIP of page 9. I should probably adjust the background on panel 1 to include the front of the space shuttle, just to help clarify the scene. But so far so good.

Had a callout at work today. In the four months this person has worked here, being scheduled only TWO DAYS out of each week, they have missed a guesstimated 10% of their shifts. Like genuinely it seems like the callout or don't show up every other weekend. It's infuriating.
