Very much enjoying this Zillow listing for a house down the street that features multiple AI-clean up images, but then also the unedited image right after each one. God bless

Just saying. It’s baffling

To summarize this post- life is short, so paint on your walls and snuggle your kid. (And maybe also buy my book.)

And now guess who has to take cholesterol medication in their mid-40s *brag* (actually it’s a genetics thing, not a cheese thing, but the cheese definitely didn’t help)

Comic con is nearly upon us! Come see me!

I love these old yearbook covers. That’s all.

So patronizing

This is circa 2010, but now I need a therapist to help me with the anger I have towards health insurance making it so hard for me to find an in-person therapist. I’d rather be mentally ill than do zoom therapy. Anyone else or just me? It’s fine. I’m fine. Hahaha *scream*

In my defense, I only threaten to cut off body parts when he’s making a huge deal out of a small injury. When he actually broke his nose, I was NICE and I TOOK HIM TO URGENT CARE and I LET HIM EAT ICE CREAM BEFORE NOON, okay??? (More on Patreon)

I recently posted a comic about a vasectomy on IG, and The Men came for me. Mostly they were mad I said it took 5 minutes. So I amended the text and added another page for clarity, re: my lifestyle choices, since many assumed I was anti-kids (despite the comic being from a book about have a baby)

Architectural award ceremonies were way more fun in 1931

I don’t normally put trigger warnings on my work, but the next few posts will cover some difficult subjects that include mental illness, talk of suicide, and a depiction of a traumatic incident that occurred in 2021. However, I’m extremely grateful to say Josh is okay and doing well.

scams targeting writers are on the rise and while I know most of you already know, I'm posting for the few that might not. (A longer explanation of things to watch out for is attached as an image)

Spoiler alert (not really): this the last page in my book, which I’m posting for Mother’s Day instead of a funny comic because this happened in May 2023, and was the best Mother’s Day gift I’ve ever gotten. The preceding pages that explain this situation are free to read on patreon.com/juliawertz
