It's Only a Form of Insect Collecting

I timed myself for reference, the whole comic is a ~20-30 minute read.

sometimes I worry that I'm too quick to hold grudges, and then I remember my friend jeremy who has a list 100+ items long of all the grudges he's ever kept, ranging from "guy at a cafe with an unforgivably bad haircut" to "vladimir putin (no explanation needed)"

They should let Disney make a House of Leaves adaptation but instead of actually adapting the plot, it's a seven minute animated short about Donald Duck purchasing and attempting to live in the House

At the end it pans out to reveal Johnny Truant, in live action and visibly unwell, watching the short and hitting "replay" for, you can tell from the hollowness in his eyes, the 40th time that day

are you an insomniac in a “im obsessed with a dead welsh king and physically can’t think of anything else” way or a “im afraid that if i go to sleep my nightmares will try to kill me” way or a “i can’t sleep for more than twenty minutes at a time or ill bring back a copy of myself until i die” way or a “ive been dead for seven years” way

shelley gets a lotta fuckin cred for ozymandias despite only writing like one and a half lines and then just straight up quoting that traveller from an antique land he met for the rest of the poem

the best way i can think to describe the experience of reading moby dick is you’re in line at the dmv and this guy behind you very loudly says “well who HASN’T had a gay experience” and then proceeds to tell you every detail about his life in between anecdotes about how great sperm is and how ropes work and sometimes he’ll say the most poetic shit you’ve ever heard in your life and them jump RIGHT back into explaining how a whale is a fish because 1) it swims in water and you’re still only like halfway through the dmv line
