Halfway through drawing this fairly accurate depiction of our week, I realised that it’s mental health awareness week. The world seems pretty immensely messed up at the moment, and it seems like things are more likely to worsen before they get better. It’s having a hard impact on Joe and I, individually, but it’s weirdly reassuring that we’re both struggling.
I’m a transguy, on T for two months now. I live in a tent in the woods in Monterey Bay, California. Been homeless over four years now. I feel like this constantly, probably due in no small part to the fact that my survival is pretty well dependent upon the outcome of not only America’s upcoming election, but of capitalism itself.
Also, I read all of your comics (at the time) before I started T, and you have helped me immeasurably. (My partner’s probably tired of hearing me chatter about ‘Sam and Joe from Rooster Tails’ every time we go to Starbucks to charge our devices!) Hoping to start my own webcomic(s) soon, if I can get enough funds together for a good tablet.
Hang in there guys, you’re awesome!
Ohhhhh this is so heartwarming!! I’m so sorry and sad about your situation, I’m really hoping that the outcome of your election isn’t the most awful option. Let me know when you start up your comic, or if you do any online fundraising for your tablet! <3 Sam
What would you suggest for fundraising? I’m no web virgin, but I’m no wizard either
Just letting you know you’re not the only one out there with thoughts like that. And also that I love you immensely.
