  • This’d be both terrifying and incredibly cool. Just let your body go to work / school / whatever and let your head sleep a little longer. And when you need to think, your body comes back home and picks up the head. Or you put your head in a special bag where it can sleep, kinda like those cat backpacks, and when you need it, you can just take it out.

    “stukje” could be a piece of cake, but in this case, it’s stukkie wukkie, which is more like stucky-wucky fucky-wucky (to copy the original’s style), or just broken in English.

    Oopsie woopsie! The train is stucky-wucky fucky-wucky! We awe working vewy hard to fix it. Mb (maybe) you can bwike instead owo

    So, no, the train is not a piece of cake, it's just stuck broken. ...or is it?

    a train-shaped cake




  • Is this a reference to that comic where a small dragon tries to… “take” one of these bollards? Because that comic gave me second-hand pain that I can still feel in my bones.

    But I agree, it’s important to establish boundaries and to enforce them, and that’s something I sometimes struggle with, too, especially in the context of work (when they ask for overtime, extra shifts, extra work, that sort of stuff). Thank you for this very important PSA that you delivered with unmatched style :3


  • The spectrum of therapists is wild. The first person I ever talked to (technically a counselor because she was still in training) was like the therapist in this comic. She was constantly scribbling down stuff. I don’t even know what she did with it because I only met her two or three times. Then I went to a different therapist who never took notes during our session. I guess he took notes afterwards, but never while I was there.

    Maybe he did it that way because seeing someone take notes about you can make you uncomfortable, like in this comic. Or maybe clients see note-taking as “I said something good (or bad)”, and then they might (not) say certain things because of that. Or maybe it’s just personal preference, idk.

    If there was a bus company near me that let you have fixed shifts, maybe I’d do it. But in the EU, bus drivers need to renew their licence every five years, and as far as I know, that includes a physical exam (easy), an eye exam (a little colour blind, so that might be an issue), and being diagnosed with depression can be an issue, too. I’m thinking about driving trucks, though, because they aren’t as strict about colour blindness (I’m not really colour blind because I can see colours, I just answer most of the Ishihara test questions wrong) and they don’t ask you about your mental health.







  • I spent most of yesterday in bed, I’ll spend most of today in bed. I hate being sick :c

    I usually walk to the gym twice a week, that’s an extra 3,500 steps a day, but it’s still so far from the recommended 10k a day. This past month, I had to take the car to the gym (I usually take the train, then walk, but they’re working on the rails and all trains are cancelled) and I definitely notice the missing steps.
