Becoming Unscared 101

Myrrh pointing to the 'spiraling over nothing' drawing I posted earlier and exclaiming 'HEY!!! Too many of you are relating to this and it's bumming me out!!! We have to do something about this!'

Looking altogether too proud of themself, Myrrh continues: 'Fortunately for us, I'm basically an expert at getting so so scared. So here are my 3 awesome tips for when I'm freaking out and need to trick myself into being unscared'

The next panel shows a doodle of Myrrh breathing cartoonishly deeply. The narration reads: 'Tip #1: You can take a deep breath or two. Everybody knows this one and I can feel you all rolling your eyes at me so I won't explain this one but it really does help ok'

The next panel shows a doodle of furniture in a bedroom, each labeled with a material it's made of (e.g. metal, wood, paper, fabric). The narration reads: 'Tip #2: You can look around at all the stuff in the room, and mentally list what everything is made of. I don't remember where I learned this one, but it's a great way to distract yourself for just long enough to calm down.'

Is there a DC character would you like to take out of the toy box in the future?

Hey @rbreich.bsky.social I know you’re worried about our democracy and hey I’d donate but I’m being laid off in nine days and I’d appreciate not being jump-scared about being broke as shit at the exact time our government is being gutted there’s only so much stress I can manage thanks

A text message from Robert Reich! He is deeply concerned our democracy may not survive this.

There is a link for my donation to Inequality Media, which will presumably help save democracy in time for me to get a new job

Friends, let me tell you, it is SO GOOD

It’s funny how black people are expected to reach across the aisle to voters like these, while no one ever expects them to reach across the aisle to black people. Amazing who gets to be human, and who doesn’t.

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

This is a description of what happened with the intimidation protest the Proud Boys tried to stage across the street from my apartment building in 2020, back when they thought I was Public Enemy #1.

The community pushback was amazing and inspiring.

Really would be nice to have a functioning government that would take care of such a plague

Pina ✨ ADHD Alien @adhd-alien.bsky.social · 6d

I’ve learnt that only hyperfocus can keep me from disappointing others. Sometimes.

Two-page comic about ADHD, self-doubt, and burnout.

Panels 1+2
A person with short black hair and yellow antennae recalls lifelong struggles with effort and recognition. As a child, they cry while being scolded over homework. Later, they work hard but still fail small details and receive an “F.” When they finally succeed, they can’t enjoy it—holding a medal labeled “2,” they feel it’s luck, not skill.

Panel 3+4
Page 2:
They explain how productivity fluctuates. A blue graph shows steady effort, while a pink line spikes wildly. They say, “For me, it fluctuates more extremely.” Sitting exhausted at a messy desk, they admit, “I only stop when I’m too tired to go on. The word I learned for all this was ‘lazy.’ I never learned a healthy measure or how to trust myself.”

Chiitan has a dream.
I hope that one day the term LGBT will become a thing of the past.
I will continue to spread my message until we live in a world where everyone can love freely and is free from persecution and discrimination.
Until then, let's all support each other🤍
