But I stopped at some point, and this turned into a place where I just promoted my projects and gave generic, general updates. It meant I posted less and less, and I know I'm trying to turn that around. When you make stuff like comics and books and try to talk about them and promote them online, there's a pressure to be positive constantly. Like when you're actively trying to provide paths for escapism for people, a lot of people get unhappy when you drag reality into things.
But things are stressful.
Sometimes we're just holding ourselves together with tape and string, and hoping no one notices. Besides the massively important Wisconsin Supreme Court election on Tuesday (vote Crawford by the way), the outside world isn't the only pressure. My grandmother is going into hospice, and that brings its own set of stuff. I've got a family of people who are all concerned about everyone else's well being, and not enough people taking care of themselves.
And, like, for the record, I am fine. I will be fine. We have a lot of fighting to do, and I have no intention of giving up. But, like, shit is stressful, y'know? And I think it's important to acknowledge that stress. I write these things not because I need support, but to acknowledge that they exist. To say "sometimes things are hard and we're all human."
Because we are.
And me move forward as best we can.

They should get a chocolate lab. Those are very friendly dogs and they are really smart, like they always know when to cheer you up and they just always seem to be there when times are rough. I am totally not speaking from experience and I totally don’t have a biased opinion. Just saying.
Irish Wolfhounds, big friendly muppets… though, like seriously, really big.
Just got a five-month-old Irish wolfhound two weeks ago. “Big friendly muppet” is a great description.
Replace Nobles and Barns with a dog… sounds like a good switch.
clearly they would get a rescue
