It’s not rocket science

Seriously though, your style is kickass!

Thank you for sharing, I can totally relate. I was in a very similar situation a few months ago.

Hey, in so sorry for all the hardship you had to go through 😔 But there’s hope, and it looks like is getting better from here, right? You are right to be angry at your past, but it’s not too helpful to stay stuck in those thoughts. The only way forward is forward, so rather look ahead. We all have scars, had our good and bad memories, they shape who we are, they make us unique. IMO it’s helpful to consider that people are doing the best they can, even if they isn’t perfect. Your mom might have problems, but she is probably also trying to live life and to parent as best as she can.

You are doing a great job by venting and by looking for community! I hope you get better 🙏

Are you okay with sharing an update on your situation?

Personally, I’ve had good experiences with couples’ therapy and taking walks together (either to talk about random stuff, or to talk about our partnership, ourselves). It takes some courage, but being honest with your feelings, your worries and your desires, in other words playing with open cards, can help your partner to understand you better and can help your marriage to grow stronger. Therapy can help especially in case some feelings overwhelm you both and you don’t know how to deal with them.

I’m so happy for you being able to experience his 🥰

Oh wrote, thank you for making comics and posting here!

Don’t worry too much about having to pump out content. Like, not to the point were it detrimental to your health instead of being fun.

Take Part in the Free “Huge Vegan Survey"!

The Huge Vegan Survey is now open, and your voice is needed. Run independently by UK-based zoologist Jordi Casamitjana, this global study is looking for adults worldwide who identify as vegan, plant-based, or something similar to complete a short online questionnaire.

The goal? To build one of the largest and most comprehensive international snapshots of what draws people to — and keeps them in — vegan and plant-based lifestyles.

Here’s what to know before you dive in:

• Fully anonymous — no registration, no personal details required
• Takes just 10–20 minutes to complete
• Your responses help researchers, advocates, and outreach efforts better understand and support our communities

Every response makes the picture clearer and the data stronger, so please take a few minutes to participate, and spread the word with friends, family, and your favorite online groups!

I agree with the reasoning, that with “vegan ethics” as at the basis, easier to argue for other basic (human) rights and non-violence. If anyone deserves to live free of harm, then there’s less debate for racism, etc. You are right that non-veganism is hypocritical of leftists. I do comment on comrades’ lack of integrity. The same applies regarding queer-friendliness.

But how are you drawing the conclusion, that veganism should be at the epicenter? How would that be achieved? Isn’t it also hypocritical for vegans to not be activists for a broader spectrum of left political topics? Veganism definitely does attach to many topics, but it would be a bad center for them. How would a critique of media or militarism be stronger from a vegan-centric position?

In veganism, our perspective is from a position of power (to abuse animals), which we’re individually not boycotting. We are arguing that other people should voluntarily join us, or we’re trying to make veganism more accessible. However, many other super important left topics are from quite the opposite perspective: we are the oppressed, trying to take down the oppressors. We can’t just “argue with other oppressors”. We can’t just sit down with a cup of warm oat milk and say “oppression is immoral, please stop”. We need to get up and actively fight it, and I haven’t seen “vegan-centric approaches” that would be advantageous here.

It’s one struggle, one fight. Joining forces across the left spectrum is one of the most powerful things we can do, and I’d love to see us fighting jointly. It’s also what out adversaries fear the most! The FBI killed MLK and Black Panther Party leaders after they and their peers brought together distinct groups. But it seems uninformed to consider veganism as the epicenter. The epicenter should be a framework to understand, organize and lead the struggle. I’d rather have strong core values from which veganism concludes, than a center from which other struggles are merely touched upon but not actually addressed.

Hope to see a constructive discussion 😀

It’s honestly amazing

“Oh you shaved? You look better that way” and “I didn’t even notice, my attention is always to caught up in your blue hair” is all the comments I’m getting 🙃

I didn’t expect anyone to seriously consider saying “is 5G”, but honestly… I think it’s a good call. Answering uncomfortable questions with jokes is a great life hack, because itself will subspecialty associate the topic with humor and good emotions. Even if someone insults you with malice, if you but them with a good comeback, there’s a chance everyone’s laughing and the malice is retroactively denied (as in them thinking “of I was just joking” as well).

Intense, colorful hair looks soo good 🤩

TFW being called out

Aargh, I meant to write “cooking”. With my new keyboard app, I needed to get used to double checking more often.

That should be illegal

It wouldn’t surprise me if both are just happy to gave enjoyed each other’s show

Awesome! I’m so glad you had a fun time 💛

This post reminds me of one by @QuinnyCoded@sh.itjust.works which actually got me wanting to try HRT before even realizing I was trans.

also omfg the progesterone is working why is everyone so pretty WHAT IS HAPPENING […] like I just FEEL things, like deep inside me.? is this normal? am i crazy? is this what cis girls feel all the time??? (source)

Thank you for sharing your experience! I’m so excited to start it soon, too. 😊

I wonder if this paying more attention to colors / pretty things is ADHD related…

Your trains are surprisingly reflective, kinda cool. Great shots! 😎

I actually like that is not too monotone, but has a bit of… Texture? Noise?

“Thank you for [cooking], mom! 💕” One day…
