Happy #makeaterriblecomicday2025! Please make a comic! 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!
If you make a comic (again, it’s mandatory) and you want to share it, post it on the tag #makeaterriblecomicday2025! Or don’t, I’m not a cop.
Remember, the goal is to make something terrible! So if you can’t draw or have never made a comic, or if it’s been ages since you made something just for fun — that’s perfect! You’re all set! If you fuck up and make something that’s NOT terrible… well, some might say there’s joy in that too.
Ok stop reading this and go make something!!!

i think too many people operate under the assumption that emotions are some frivilous fantasy of the mind and have no impact on the physical world, which is a cute thought when Humans are an animal that can die from being kinda stressed out

very often it's crystal clear that the meanest most hateful and vitriolic people you come across online are just acting like that because they are severely going through it irl and are just kinda lashing out at random in an attempt to expel any of the white hot burning rage in their chests. probably the most effective way to get them to stop doing what they're doing is to be as warm and level headed as possible, engage with them completely on the level, take them seriously, and help them calm down. doing what feels like the natural thing of matching their tone and publicly telling them off for being a tar pit Directly At You will not help even a little bit, it'll just make them feel worse and confirm their conception that the entire world wants to hurt them so they have to make sure they hurt it first. unfortunately if you try to do the decent thing and deescalate then they may spend the entire time running at you with scissors over and over again as they actively try to stab you as much as possible.
#online or like. any time you’re a service worker#people will so so so clearly be lashing out because they have no other outlet for whatever they’re dealing with in life#and jfc you can only be so empathetic when someone is using you as a punching bag

a part of being proactive about how you communicate with all types of people is having the ability to realize when the person or people across from you don’t understand what you are telling them, and then having the ability to explain it differently, explain the wider cultural context they might be missing, or use simpler vocabulary

why bother caring about the environment when 1. It’s so obviously a lost cause and 2. There’s definitely going to be a nuclear war?
And what are you doing about it Anon? Learn about ecological restoration or get out of my way.

sometimes the urge is so strong to correct misinformation and get Into It but sometimes it’s like “wow i don’t care. im going to watch a documentary about the dust bowl”
people on this site will openly brag about getting “bad vibes” from a topic, not investigating it, and patting themselves on the back for being right when someone else gets “bad vibes”

#i didn’t know people were being ableist about the AI cognitive activity study but like#just scrolled through a bunch of comments about it from people 8 layers deeper in The Discourse but haven’t… actually read any of the study.#which was about how you’re not learning when you’re not actually doing the reading or writing#also just saw someone mocking ppl for ‘thinking AI wastes mass amounts of water’ as if that’s not a well-documented environmental issue….#so like okay ya’ll

My favorite pictures of Antarctic explorers giving each other haircuts!!
Roald Amundsen cutting Emil Racoviță’s hair on the Belgica :3c the Amundsmile and Wacky Racy make this an instant classic. Love!!!

Anton Omelchenko cutting Patrick Keohane’s hair on the Terra Nova expedition. Anton looks like a real professional here, I’d let him trim my bangs

Endurance haircuts all around!!! On the left is Frank Wild cutting (presumed) Lionel Greenstreet’s hair, and on the right we have Thomas Orde-Lees giving Tom Crean a haircut! It must have been haircut day aboard Endurance, & there are plenty of cute details in this one, including Alexander Macklin patting Leonard Hussey’s freshly shaved head (to the left & in the back)

Henry Rennick cutting Dennis Lillie’s hair on Terra Nova!!! Yes… this is my favorite. Rennick’s dramatic stance and Lillie with his little feet up on the railing…. Cute!!!!
The moral of the story being, of course, if you get a bunch of lads together on a boat bound for Antarctica, they’ll inevitably start cutting each others’ hair for fun. Dudes rock
