it may not be GOOD art, but at least it’s MY art

I’m deleting bluesky because I don’t need to continuously read shit that makes me want to press my own eject button. I’ll probably be back at some point. But for now I just can’t handle this shit. Sorry.

I’m case you were wondering where I went (you weren’t lol) Bluesky gives me anxiety and artistic inferiority complex. So I only look at it when I want to feel bad :)

Hey! I’m making a terrible comic this year! I might even make more than one! I already have several terrible ideas! That’s art, baby! You guys should totally make one too! It’ll be fun! I missed out on the fun last year but this year I want the fun!

Happy #makeaterriblecomicday2025! It’s mandatory that you create some piece of sequential art — what it is and how you make it is up to you! Have fun! You might as well!

a comic. a possum is rummaging around inside a trash can. It erupts from the can holding something in its paws. “hey!” she says. She holds out the desktop calendar. “Today is June 24th! Look!” She leans on the edge of the trash can. “that means today is make a terrible comic day!” She produces a ballpoint pen from the trash and clicks it. “the idea is to just make something! no rules, just enjoy the act of creation! (Or don’t and just do it anyway)” she is drawing on the cardboard back of the calendar. “tell a story, tell a joke, make something silly or sublime or totally abstract! make something and don’t stop making it until it’s made!” She holds up her little comic with pride. “tell your inner critic to ‘fuck off!’ make a terrible comic!”

I will never EVER regret moving to the UK to be with my wife. ...but I gotta admit that having the new EHRC guidance drop right AFTER submitting my application for citizenship feels like some real monkey's paw type shit.
