This one is old but not old enough to be included in the Nerd Inferno omnibus. The saddest thing about it is that it isn't just for freelancers anymore. Good luck to us all.
A four-panel comic called Cartooning Benefits Package, which depicts a shower as vacation time, a failing go fund me as health insurance, and death as retirement. Your cartoonist mileage may vary. Also works for the arts and freelancing in general, and, these days, working life in general.

So far, working out in an actual gym with my personal trainer, with actual weights again and doing cardio again for the first time in 4+ years, my POTS is not acting up I’ve finally got it controlled well. It’s nice to be able to do shit again without passing out!

it’s about learning how to stay present in a life that suddenly has a lot more limits.

The Sick Times @thesicktimes.org · 16/02/2026
Emily Mendenhall’s new book, Invisible Illness — which promises a history of poorly understood chronic conditions — fails to convey the severity of infection-associated chronic conditions, demands for treatment, or importance of infection prevention. bit.ly/3MO4BGZ
A graphic displays the 5th century BCE marble relief art “Ascelpius or Hippocrates treating and ill woman”. In the scene, a man touches the shoulder of a woman lying down as four other people stand by and watch. The text reads, “The Sick Times. “Invisible Illness” could have been transgressive. Instead, it minimizes Long COVID. The book fails to convey the severity of infection-associated chronic conditions, demands for treatment, or importance of infection prevention. By Shielding Cournoyer.”While certain factors increase risks, infections disable the able-bodied, too. Denying that fact means placing public health failures on the bodies of disabled people. Public health is off the hook if the problem is never one infection, but always, instead, “You’re kind of a hot mess.”

@onschoolsafety.bsky.social and @mjnabuurs.bsky.social, filling the "gaps in public messaging" left by public health and infection control leaders whose only priorities seem to be burying their own mistakes and cashing those bloated paycheques. science.gc.ca/site/science...
Prevention: There are gaps in public messaging about the importance of PCC prevention. PCC preventive actions include avoiding SARS-CoV-2 infection and reinfection through protective behavior, such as isolating when sick to avoid spreading disease and effective masking in crowded spaces, and making it easy to adopt protective measures through steps that government, institutions and employers can take. Equally important is indoor air quality and ventilation to reduce transmission of infectious diseases that transmit through the air, including SARS-CoV-2, influenza and other common respiratory virusesFootnote46 Footnote47. Adequate ventilation and air filtration is often a key gap in buildings where people gather, including schools.

Another key action along with other measures to prevent PCC is vaccination. There are gaps in messaging about reducing the risk for PCC through vaccination across all ages. COVID-19 vaccination and messaging targeted to priority populations to protect against acute COVID-19 illness may have an unintended consequence of conveying that keeping COVID-19 vaccination up to date for acute and chronic effects is not really necessary for all age groups.
