When DIY Fixes Go Wrong: A Middle-Aged Man's Saga

Ever stared at a broken faucet like you’re about to enter the UFC ring? 😂 This one’s for all the middle-aged men out there who swear they can fix anything (spoiler: you probably can’t, but we love you for trying). Trust me, it’s relatable. 👷‍♂️

Ah, the age-old dilemma of the middle-aged man: They see something broken, their pride kicks in, and they tell you and themselves, “I can fix this.” Maybe it’s the leaky faucet, the janky lawnmower, or that ancient TV remote he refuses to let go of because it’s “still got some life left in it.” Sound familiar? Well, buckle up, because we’re diving into the hilarious reality of the DIY fix-it guy,…

Adventures in Babysitting...Oops, I Mean Parenting

Welcome back to another episode of “The Unfiltered Chronicles,” where life with my boyfriend’s 6-year-old daughter is like walking through a minefield of innocence mixed with a complete lack of filters. Strap in, folks, because this ride gets bumpy. So, picture this: It’s girls’ craft day, and we’re all gathered around the table making bracelets. I’m feeling creative, so I whip up one that says,…

I just saw a little short viral video on how to make homemade soda. It involved pine needles, sugar, and a glass bottle with a wire bail top. Basically it was put the pine needles in, put in sugar, fill with water, and then cap it and put it in the window for three days.

This will work and make soda. This is also how you get shattered glass thrown across the room when the bottle over-pressures and explodes.

If you're going to do this, use an airlock or some kind of pressure relief valve. You don't know if the yeast, especially wild yeast which this uses, are suddenly going to go buck wild and produce a ton of CO2. At least put the damn thing in a bucket so it'll contain the blast if it happens.

Well, the titan "submarine" is your local fucking reminder that "Regulations are written in blood" Is NOT a just a fucking saying or just a fucking joke.

Collection of my keychains i made today!

ugly , but i dont have any other way to make merch sue me. Lol

I was tired of looking at an ugly plastic bin on my kitchen counter holding all my pills, and got inspired by all those fake antique drug/poison jars on Etsy, so… behold, my “new” apothecary jars!

The jars themselves are actually quite old and did originally come from a pharmacy in my hometown. (I bought them secondhand as part of a lot of old pharmacy supplies, which also included unused labels and pill boxes that had the name and address of the pharmacy on them -hence how I know.)

They were in abysmal state, so I don’t feel like I ruined antique pieces or anything.

Anyway, my counter is now more Aesthetic(TM), I’m calling that a success!

Thinking about this post again and laughing at the idea of them doing this in front of Bruce, like... he does not know how to process it and terrifies him!

It falls to the other Gen Zs to explain, but Steph and Duke refuse to and Cass isn't on the internet enough to know anything except "they aren't being serious."

Damian tells him not to worry about Drake and Todd's "cringe pseudo-beef" and that does not help. Well, it doesn't help Bruce. Dick needed the laugh!

My ideal Tim and Jason dynamic is basically:

Tim: Kill yourself

Jason: Kill me yourself, bootlicker

Onto the next mini-project, and this time I'm prepping for Halloween! I've always wanted to learn how to make wigs, and since it's a skill I'll probably need in the future, well. No better time to start learning than now! I've successfully crimped this wig without starting any fires, so enjoy watching me figure this out while I get ready to start recording my next big project!

There's a reason being a plumber requires years of training and a liscence, Bowser...

Trivia notes:

My inspiration for comissioning this was the Dude Perfect Dad Stereotypes video. I got to the first DIY DAD section and thought: "This is Bowser, 10000%" Just with more collateral damage because Bowser.

Bowser Jr being a sassy gremlin child is always fun.

The reason he's not in the second panel is because the moment his dad mentioned Mario he knew where this was going and made a mad dash to safety. And to the best viewing point of the spectacle.

I just noticed Bowser Jr needing to stand on a stool in the first panel. Nice.

I'm on the verge of quitting everything. I've been crying all day. I'm tired of putting up a candid face when social media is scr*wing over trans creators or only showing my art to anti-trans suicide-baiters. Even though this has been my most productive year ever, in terms of online content, I get comments practically every day about how rarely people get to see my posts in their feed.

Since last winter's natural disaster, we haven't been able to afford groceries. We haven't had hot water since March. I've been late on student loans and car payments for months. Orders are late and I feel like I'm failing everyone.

On top of that, I'm still regularizing my situation in this country, and in that context, I just received a letter telling me that as a self-employed artist, I'm obligated to put a monthly $700 in a private retirement fund (and pay the 21 months backlog since I officially started paying taxes here). The only other options are to quit art or go back to Canada.

I've talked in the past few months about the necessity for the survival of this project to double the amount of subscribers on patreon. Each time, social media killed the reach of these posts. I'm not expecting this one to do better. However, it has never been more urgent. There needs to be about 200 new subs or I might be forced to shut it all down. I'm really scared and I wish this wasn't the only way.

You got some choices, although they are being updated more or less regularly - keeping Assigned Male Comics free and easily available on social media remains my priority : Assigned Male Comics patreon A Frog in the Bog (foraging and DIY) patreon Pastel Sexy Times (nsfw) patreon Candycore Comics patreon

I'm sure you all got so much on your plate, and you could do without the series of woes that have afflicted our family this year. Thank you for reading through this and for your constant support, even if it's just through leaving comments - it does help. It's my privilege to create these comics, and I hope to do it as long as you will allow me.
