WHATEVER MAN

That's not even me complaining about my own income situation or anything. Just like. Thinking about the time someone speculated about the monetary incentives behind my comics, at a time when I had literally no online revenue stream at all.

I've been called petit bourgeois for being a self-published writer and hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

"Online freelancers are petit bourgeois" is LITERALLY the thing the corporations hosting the gig economy use to justify treating their workers like shit 😭

nothing will remind you that eating is good and okay like fantasy books will. “and that night in the valley they brought out the best plum cake and sweet cream, trout and turnips roasted over the fire, mead and goatsmilk and fresh cold water from the spring-“ and it’s like yeah dude you’re absolutely right. then sometimes it’s like “as he slept that night in the woods, he sorely missed the valley, where they brought out the best plum cake-“ and it’s like man that sucks i’ll have some seconds in his honor

i bet it feels good to be an underwater plant just swaying in sync with the flow of water

Perhaps this is an obnoxious take on my part, but video games should, above all things, prioritize the ability of being paused. At any point. Regardless of whether it's during a cutscene, a special animation, or a time-based puzzle. You never know when you're gonna get a phone call, or someone will need you in another room, or you get a sudden urge to go to the bathroom, or you hear your cat licking plastic, or whatever. Other entertainment mediums like books, movies, and music can be paused whenever you want. Why do some games not give you the same luxury??
