Maybe you’ve seen this? I’m in way too much pain lately, way too overwhelmed to get through without you: www.gofundme.com/f/help-georg... Even a share helps a lot 💛

Sometimes when they try to deplete you by shocking your system, you gotta sleep all day, for a few days, and come back strong and rested — the last thing they expected

Doing a thought ladder (s/o Kara Lowentheil 🙌🏻) abt my money beliefs — it started as, “People profiting in an exploitative system are EVIL.” The very next wrung was a PARAGRAPH about how there is no ethical consumption under capitalism ….I don’t think I can swap out that many words in a mantra 🧐

Try swapping out “don’t take it personally” with “don’t take responsibility for that.” How does it feel? #selftalk

I do not share my joy with people who turn away from my pain🤘🏼

Literally just sent someone a text that said “do you still want to be friends with me?” (Tell me you’re autistic without telling me your autistic) Wish me luck 🤞🏼

This day is a lump of clay. Your life is a lump of clay. This world is a lump of clay. Shape it.

Growing up is actually just losing your tolerance for things that hurt you

If I were to write a manifesto, it would start “Life is just a soup you’re in…” and you’ll be delighted to find I expand upon that idea because it is perfect and true

I’ve been thinking recently about how creating the life you want really requires role models to show you how it’s done and to help you see that it’s real…but how the fuck are sick people supposed to do that?

MY BATHTUB HAS LEFT THE LIVING ROOM!! Now my life can BEGIN 🔥

I want to make changes in my life. This makes me sad. Choosing to change myself makes me very scared. That’s okay ✨🤠✨

I bring “kid waiting for Christmas” energy to my calendar of doctor’s appointments. Two more sleeps, I’m gonna be there an hour before my appointment just in case, and bring my wish list of tests that I really REALLY want to get done I’ve been a really good kid this year to make sure it happens 🤪

This section of the hardware store nearly made me cry

Real question: am I intimidating?

Hot take: nobody should EVER pretend it didn’t happen

You know how people are finding their children much calmer when they switch from current kids television to kids tv from the 90’s? I gotta start rewatching kids tv from the 90’s

I fall in love the way characters in the Lord of the Rings fall in love…with a few meaningful glances, and to the death

Graceful as all get out

Why is this my favourite thing to do right now (watching/listening to LOTR in the background)

Wow I forgot this place existed for the last 8 months. I was funnier then, please lower your expectations ☠️

So I joined a dating app last night for the first time in a year or so, and I learned two things: 1) I do not like boys 2) I do not want to kiss boys

I have entered a new era of writing to companies about their products being inferior, even when it takes me 20 minutes and I have to send photos of bar codes

Why don’t snow days apply to brains

I’m in love with my wood stove

If you have attended my classes before, you may have heard me talk about my dislike of the idea that “everything happens for a reason.” I believe that the reason is something we make, not the intention of the universe or some all-knowing being trying to teach us lessons.

except "whiteness" is a specifically american concept meant to flatten the distinctions of old european society in order to unify people of "civilized" origin against slaves and natives.

This season in my life is full of catastrophe and change, hitting me like unrelenting waves, almost rhythmic — they just don’t stop. Instead of resisting the waves or succumbing to the deep, I think of swimming. Moving WITH and THROUGH and always with BREATHING as my guide.

So yeah, this summer really didn’t go as planned — you might know what I’m talking about, if you read my newsletter — but I ended up right where I need to be.

I don't want this thread to be languishing at the old place, so: 11 IDEAS FOR ENLIVENING A COMICS PAGE. Some pages will just lay there, not engaging you. And if you're not engaged, the reader won't be either. Let’s talk about ways to solve that problem as artists. 🧵

I had to put one of my dogs down today, for behavioural reasons. I don’t think my heart has ever been this broken.

I’m having one of those moments where I forget everything about myself, my well-being, and my needs because life has overwhelmed me so thoroughly I can barely remember my name.

You know I’m unhinged when I asking my barking dog to take a breathing break with me

None of you told me The Texas Chainsaw Massacre included astrology, I could have been made to watch this so much sooner. Tsk tsk tsk.

I teach the importance, value, and fun of doing things imperfectly — BADLY, even — and yesterday one of my students said “I’ve never seen you do anything badly.” This is haunting me.
