I build digital products.
Anna's mother had always dreamed of doing a Wattwanderung, a walk through the Wadden Sea at low tide to one of the nearby islands. So we packed our things, rented a car and a house, and made our way to Germany's north coast, where I'm originally from. https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-25
Last time, my hairdresser Ramona and I slightly misjudged both my hair length and the timing between appointments, and I ended up looking like someone who rather enjoys having far too much hair on their head. I’m fortunate not to have thinning hair, despite be... https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-24
In Germany, we have the saying "Man muss die Feste feiern, wie sie fallen", which loosely translates to "You have to celebrate the good times as they come". We tried. We failed. Oh well. Busses are the worst kind of public transportation. Change my mind! https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-23
I lied to Anna for her own good, because I’d prepared a little gift for her, and her investigative skills were dangerously close to ruining the surprise. Thankfully, I’m apparently a pathological liar, because she didn’t suspect a thing and was very happy to r... https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-22
My reading can sometimes be a little too intense for Anna. https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-21
Summer is the best season, no debate needed. https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-19
I love drawing in this journal, but I’d love even more for AI to handle the scanning and editing for me. https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-16
Headache days are the worst. It’s either the weather or me thinking I can drink something with caffeine more than one day in a row that’s causing them. https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-15
I love winning battles against that inner voice telling me not to do hard things. It feels great. https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-14
This might be my absolute favorite comic from this year of daily comics so far. https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-13
Life is more rewarding when you’re invested in things. https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-12
I just scheduled the 11th issue of my newsletter. It'll go out in 24 hours. Topics: - heat waves - headaches - six months of daily comics - improv comedy - Dungeon Crawler Carl - painting instead of doomscrolling - leg hair - making bad art Recent issues: uarrr.org/
I don’t know why, but the ending of Disclosure Day made me cry?! https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-10
Sometimes quality time together means doing things separately, but side by side. https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-09
Please don’t judge my apparently abysmal push-up form. https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-08
After that, I actively enjoyed the clean windows for two weeks. It was worth it. https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-07
We successfully built everything. Let’s just not mention how, a couple of days later, a real handyman had to come and bolt it all to the wall properly. https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-06
I’ve never understood people who pride themselves on how much heat they can stomach. Good job, dude, you’re hurting yourself on purpose. Very impressive. https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-05
I started adding editor's commentary to the comics in my newsletter, and I like this format a lot: a split between thoughts on what happens inside the comic and thoughts on the art itself. The next issue will be out in a couple of hours. You can subscribe here: uarrr.org
This is somehow not as shocking to anyone else as it is to me, but how was this cocktail only invented in 2008? We had smartphones then! How did nobody, in all those years before that, think to smash up a bit of basil and throw some random alcohol into it?! It... https://marcel.io/dailies/2026-06-04
