i dont think regular people can grasp how isolating it is to be that person who is always single in a society and environment where people are always dating, and dating is so culturally relevant. all my friends have had longterm/serious relationships and even when theyre single they are usually seeing someone. im seeing someone maybe 2 months a year on average but im „true single“ most of the time and dont really get into relationships at all. and its always been this way.
and with age and thanks to getting more into feminism i know that my selfworth and value as a person does not rely on dating. in fact most relationships i see are dysfunctional or with men i would not want to be with (im saying men because they are usually the problem, but also because most men are just unattractive on top). and i think that promoting to women that being single is okay and good actually is really important. that you can very much be happy without a relationship.
nonetheless there is of course the human need for affection, a longing for romantic/sexual companionship (i know some people dont have that and it doesnt make them less human but i think its normal human desire that cant be unconditioned, and i dont even think that should be the goal). and you can barely protect yourself from sociocultural messaging which is additionally enforcing it. even if you rationally know that there is nothing wrong with being single, especially as a woman its difficult to shake this feeling of being a failure. always seeing your friends go through the motions while you remain the same. etc
anyways im really vulnerable right now if any insane women want to take advantage of me…

honestly appreciate you talking about DID stuff so much, even tho the misinformation and mistreatment is still frustrating and hurtful it’s nice to know someone else also cares AND is willing to say something about it where i usually feel too nervous or incoherent to share my thoughts . its like both offline and online spaces make us feel alienated and mistreated but online spaces are so Positive and Well Meaning about how weirdly and inhumanly they treat us so it’s even harder to speak up lmao. anyways yeah agree so much with everything you’ve posted hope ur feeling better 🫂 much love
i wuv you and YEAH! its so difficult when its people who genuinely mean the best in the world but have been fed so much false information and guidance that they treat us like a different species
i hate the mysticism of DID and i love breaking it down into simple words without metaphors so people can actually understand whats going on and then realise that this really isnt as complicated or unique as the internet led them to believe. ill be part of that movement if need be. even if im a very traumatised creature. im verbose and nobody can stop me

Hey you've probably been asked this before so I hope this isn't a bother, but is your comic Extinction officially cancelled? I really enjoyed it, it was probably my favorite webcomic I've ever read and I loved the dialogue and characters.
Hiya! And it's ok I can answer it again
I wouldnt say officially cancelled, but it is definitely on indefinite hiatus for now at least
It makes me really happy that you enjoyed the comic and that it was your favorite!! Gosh
It simply became unsustainable for me to maintain, juggling my irl studies, and the comic itself, as well as my free time and social life. Comic pages took a long time to finish, and my studies demanded more and more time from me most of which I spent drawing or writing for class, so for my free time I wanted to do other things in the end
Currently my focus is on other stories, though I still love Extinction to bits. I would definitely love to return to it someday and finish it or reboot it if necessary if my life stabilizes enough, but at the moment I can't dedicate so much time to it as I used to be able to
