I'll be honest if youre a strictly digital artist you should pick up some sort of physical hobby art. Stamp carving/needlefelting/etc. Maybe get a single carving knife and just start whittling twigs like some sort of cowboy. Having something more tactile to do with your hands can be a lot more relaxing and grounding than paper or screen art is in my experience its really good for nerves
#the slightly less ?? version of whittling twigs that i do is make cosplay props out of styrofoam but like it's kind of the same process#i should go make those dkos horns soon....

Reasons I have seen webcomic authors publicly cite for cancelling their comic mid-storyline:
Too busy
Lost interest
Increasing age gap between characters and author made it difficult to relate
Did the math and figured out that completing the planned arc with their current update schedule would take 150 years
Ostensible author actually a fictional persona that’s now being retired, and they didn’t want the comic linked to their real identity
Realised that the way they’d written the central relationship wasn’t emotionally genuine (note: this was a hobbit porn comic)
The comic’s readership contained too many lesbians
Converted to a religion that regards all representational art as a form of idolatry
Broke up with the person the protagonist was based on
Outed as not actually Japanese
Imprisoned for manslaughter
Aliens
#not the first time seeing this post but 'did the math and realised current arc will take 150 years to finish' is#a. such a mood b. like a genuine fear of mine for when i start creating my own webcomics SKJHFKJSHDF

I think a lot about who I am to other people in the world–particular who I am to strangers as a mere concept in their lives.
Today this woman called our information desk and said, “my son’s band is playing tonight. I want to come see him, but he never answers his phone…..I want to be there. Have you heard anything about his band?”
And I felt so bad for this lady but I’m not in the music scene around here so I had to tell her no, sorry.
Five hours later, I’m hiking and run into a group of guys setting up for some outdoor performance, and as I watch them unload the drums it hits me.
“Hey,” I said, “are y’all in a band?”
They said yeah and smiled and I told them “one of your moms called today. She wants to watch you play, but she can’t get a hold of you. Call your mom.”
And they all pulled out their phones and started discussing whose mom it probably was as they presumably dialed their own.
And now, unless we meet again and recognize each other, that’s who I’ll be forever to those guys–some mysterious courier for mom-messages who came out of the woods and told them their mom called.
I didn’t even tell them why their mom called me. Who am I to their mom?? Nobody even asked. They just took my word for it and called their mothers.
Amazing.

till's first reaction to a wilting flower is to cheer it on, to keep it living. he feels so deeply for little things such as artificial flowers that he actively defends them when they are being crushed or mistreated, and kneels down to whisper encouragement as one nears the end of its life.
how often would ivan revisit that memory? the way till valued the life of these inorganic flowers, the way a single wilted bloom captures his attention and brings him to his knees in order to tend to it. when the time came, he might have hoped till would do it for him, too.
ivan and that flower were no different. beings bereft of emotion given feeling by the same sensitive boy, one who animated anything within his attention, unknowingly breathing life into blank vessels.
cheer up, till said, and suddenly the flower was brought to life, was personified by his encouragement. appealing to the emotions of a mere flower, assigning it a heart and a soul capable enough of receiving his words, believing it human enough to listen. through this display ivan was brought to life, too. mimicking till's words, thoughtful repetition, parsing through the layers and trying to understand the purpose, the meaning. cheer up, stay strong. this is must be what it's like to feel. heart seeping into actions, taking responsibility for the suffering of another.
ivan and that flower were no different. bodies weak and bent, blood-red. till over them, the same boy who brought them life watching as it trickles out. till kneels for the flower, but is motionless for ivan.
oh. maybe they were different after all.

TIL the silvery salamander only has females and they reproduce by borrowing sperm from a different species! And 0% of the male's genetic material gets passed down!
That's so weird I love nature!!
