Daily Comic Journal: December 2, 2021: "A Virus From Another Planet?"

For those of you who’ve never seen the animated show “Futurama” (and if you haven’t, why not? It’s great!) Lrrr is the bombastic villain who rules the planet Omicron Persei 8. Lrrr is voiced by the voice actor Maurice LaMarche and every time Lrrr appears on the show he announces who he is. “I am Lrrr! Ruler of the planet Omicron Persei 8!” I’ve heard that so many times it’s burned into my brain.…

"Unknown Variants"

It's been a while since I knew the name of the current variant(s).

This comic made me fix that.

There's some patrons in this strip. The patron with a link to share is Kat d. They're an amazing gamer with a great Instagram that you should be following.

If you would like to be featured in strip, become a patron!

Antídoto

Las variantes de mi angustia se van rotando, hasta ahora identifiqué las siguientes:

Variante Alfa: Cuando alguna experiencia me resulta abrumadora, más grande que yo o que mis fuerzas para gestionar los acontecimientos, siento que me hundo rápidamente como si tuviera pesas en los tobillos, o lento como en pantano o arenas movedizas.

Variante Beta: Cuando siento que vivo sobredosis de experiencias, cuando no termina de pasarme una que ya me empieza a suceder otra, cuando lucho en varios frentes y no gano en ninguno, siento que voy a la deriva y al mismo tiempo muy (muy) rápido, sin saber a donde pero avanzando, y las cosas pasan y pasan y no paran de pasar, me golpeo contra todo, no me quedo con nada y solo me quedan cicatrices.

Variante Gamma: Cuando no veo ni presente ni futuro me siento estático, nada sucede, ni me hundo ni me muevo pero tampoco sé a dónde ir porque no veo ninguna dirección posible para tomar. Esta angustia se ve que se instaló, incubó, y dio a luz una nueva variante que desconocía:

Variante Ómicron: Cruce de caminos. También estoy estancado, estático, nada me sucede pero esto me pasa a pesar de mi intención de moverme, de mi fuerza para luchar y de mi energía para persistir, sin lograr el más mínimo resultado. Un día desperté y me vi en el cruce de todos los caminos, los del presente y los del futuro, se exactamente a donde lleva cada uno y lo que debo hacer, pero por más que lo intente no puedo tomar ninguno, una barrera ajena me impide avanzar. Llegan peregrinxs desde esos caminos, charlan conmigo, me piden indicaciones, se las doy, me agradecen muchísimo o me acusan de idiota o de sabio y siguen por el sendero que tomaron o por otro nuevo. Y yo clavado en el cruce de todos los caminos posibles, sin posibilidad alguna.

Lo que no me mata me angustia. Mis antídotos tienen nombre y apellido, desde mis amistades hasta el whisky que me tomo en el Clash. Otras cosas que matan mi angustia es el volumen de la música que escucho, mi adicción a los podcast, leer, escribir, y por supuesto sexo oral. Las llamo variantes angustia del orto te vas a la mierda.

"All of us wish this was behind us, but it’s not. Facing that fact this virus, in one version or another, will be with us for many years to come, rather than denialism and complacency, is critical."

This is a long article, but it contains what you want to know, if you want to know about BA.2.86

Daily Comic Journal: December 20, 2021: "Gathering Information."

I’m sure this information isn’t a revelation. That the things you read on the internet, the divisive posts and comments, the harsh, insulting (nearly always anonymous) language are prevalent everywhere. The best thing to do is either avoid them completely, give them no credence, or if you’re going to read any of them, do so in small doses. Cause they can really get you down.

This is nuts. 😭
