This is so, so good. Everything from "And I can keep going" onward felt like an ocean wave crashing over me; unyielding and powerful, and refreshing.

Thank *you*, Edith! I'm always so excited to see your name in my inbox. The mood of your writing/drawing is so relatable, and the way you casually flow from little moments to headier (but never overwrought) meditations feels just like real life. The combination of the two is intimate and feels like we really get to know you, even with the triangle nose.

(love to take a beautiful reflection/meditation and try to monetize it MICAH what has capitalism done to your brain)

Amazing okay yes we have to make money to survive and make our art in a capitalist society!! So ummmm I’m not sure what tshirts/tote bags/stickers look like income generation-wise, but there were several frames here (that eye, hello!! and box of lines and stay waves!) that I would sport on a lot of things, for what that’s worth!

AGREED. I have so many random panels of yours saved on my phone just because they make me happy; I would buy so much stuff. Box of lines and stay waves! And if we can make requests, one of my all-time favorites is "Don't worry. Everything is fine": https://drawinglinks.substack.com/p/mystery-plant
