Got annoyed with the job search. Decided to draw my frustration.

Cat's out of the bag, I finally came out as trans to everyone I know and updated my name on all my social media. Ten years later than I'd hoped. But we're here! Can't go back on it now I guess.

I spent 4-5 hours last night rendering the shit out of the most inane details for another comic I ultimately had to scrap because I didn’t pay attention to a small but significant detail at the very start of the project.

Today I drew this with my mouse. Because I was lazy and annoyed.

I used to think I needed to live for some big cause. Needed to strive to be brilliant. Needed to achieve something great. Save lives, be a leader, be someone important. When that never happened I lost all sense of direction, for a long time.

I started getting older and realized I really just want a bike, the skills to work on it, and a dog or two. Maybe even a few chickens, a garden, and someone to love and go on little adventures with.
