My Scanner Is Morally Opposed To My Use Of Highlighter Markers And My Camera Phone Is Only A Bit Better.

Hey Panic, I just read your Couples Therapy comic. The panel where B--- says "The sooner you leave me, the sooner I can figure out my life without you." helped me realize why I push away all the people I get involved with. Thank you! This isn't really an ask lol I'm sorry.

Sometimes I get these anonymous asks that are, like, so perfect and validating that I think “If I reply and post this, people are gonna think I’m making these up and sending them to myself.”

Thank you for messaging me and I’m glad my comic gave you insight into your feelings.

Inktober day 3. Sketch of an 80s era Fredrick’s of Hollywood print ad that looked like pin-up art for “Whatever Happened To Baby Jane?”

Well, I may try to switch from Etsy at some point in the future... when I have the time to do that...

Etsy is somehow being even worse, do not click etsy ads

Etsy is now forcing shop owners to be part of their ads. We can not opt out.

To anyone who buys from etsy: DO NOT EVER CLICK THEIR ADS

They are rolling out a program where if you get a sale from an ad they put out, they’re taking 12-15% of the profit(probably on top of the like, 5%ish+ they already take). Even worse, if you have clicked an Etsy ad in the last 30 days ANYONE YOU BUY FROM ON ETSY IN THAT PERIOD WILL BE BILLED THAT FEE. 

So please, if you see an ad for something you like off etsy, do not click it. Just go on etsy and search for it.

This is somehow worse than what storenvy used to pull. 

Please go directly through an artist or see if they have their own storefront (I use bigcartel) instead of purchasing off etsy. And if you must, just please, please, never click an etsy ad.

tbh, I was kinda waiting for someone to point this out and yes, you’re absolutely right. Abuse doesn’t have to be physical, it can be emotional and/or verbal.

This comic came about because I‘d read several commentaries comparing Homer Simpson and Peter Griffin, specifically in regards to how they treat their daughters.

Almost everyone I know who takes the time to think critically about The Simpsons or Family Guy hones in on the fact that Peter physically and emotionally abuses Meg, whereas Homer is incompetent, neglectful, and absolutely does not understand Lisa -- but he loves her and he tries.

In the commentary about how Peter and Homer treat their daughters, I didn’t really see anyone bring up the physical/emotional abuse of their sons.

To lay it out there -- I loathe Family Guy. Fucking hate it.

I grew up watching The Simpsons and can have entire conversations purely through quoting the show. But as much as I love The Simpsons, I think the overall cultural attitude to corporal punishment (physical abuse) has changed enough that it’s time to retire the running “joke” of Homer choking Bart. It may have been a culturally acceptable joke ten years ago, but more and more research is showing seriously negative outcomes for kids that have experienced any form of physical punishment. We need to stop normalizing it.

As for King of the Hill, Hank and Peggy are hardly perfect parents and both have a tendency towards stifling Bobby’s more flamboyant and/or “feminine” behavior. But they both love Bobby; they have both, at different times during the show, been able to connect to Bobby through his various interests. While not perfect, they are a much healthier depiction of a family.

As a queer transgender dude who grew up in Texas and is totally unsuited for Southern concepts of masculinity, I have a real soft spot for King of the Hill and for Bobby. It’s a far more real and complex depiction of family, compared to the pointless cruelty of Family Guy or the lesser cruelties of The Simpsons.

Email I just sent to tumblr support:

This post has been flagged and deemed inappropriate.

Please explain how the nudity in my comic book about trans masculinity, which won the Broken Pencil 2018 Zine awards, violates tumblr policy.

Either it’s because you deemed this as having “female presenting nipples,” which is incorrect as all of these images are of transgender men, or you have deemed this is not “of artistic merit.”

I would like to know which policy I have violated.
