Well it was a worthy project, we could keep it going, as I'm sure most prominent members here like to dig around sometimes in that pile. It could be a monthly thing to write a few lines about 5-10 of these comics so there's really no pressure with it being a weekly thing and anyone could send the article in for Ozone to post it. What's there to settle on? A recurring day of publication and maybe agreeing that if there are other participants the same person's article won't be picked 3-4 times in a row. Unless of course Lothar specifically said not to because he'd rather it stay dead until someday he has the capacity to resurrect it.

My supervisor is a Debbie Downer and vents his anxieties around us. He makes three times my salary with half my mortgage, and worries loudly about money. I don't have sympathy. Not sorry.

“RIFs” are coming, so there's the boogie man looming. I just got my first permanent job (in my 40s) and could lose it through truly no fault of mine or anyone I know, just an algorithm deciding if I have any worth based on numbers alone. I don't want to lose the health insurance. I finally got to see a neurologist and have medicine that keeps my brain from spazzing out. The MRI showed white matter disease last year, but I can finally prevent it from getting worse.

Oh, and perimenopause has appeared. I now get hot flashes. Those suck. Both hormones and medicine are making fat me fatter. Lol.

Thanks for a place to vent. Here's a bearded baby chick to end on a brighter note.

Lol, I don't own the idea. I basically copied something Locoma did years before. I keep seeing cool looking comics in Quale's random that I would like to show other ducks but I simply didn't have time do do that and work on my porn comic. I think I could do one a month and if anyone else wants to do one that would be cool.

Vent all you want. If there is anything that I can do, I will.

We all have our ups and downs. Not meant to sound trivial. This year has been something for me too. Job scare, housing and car wise.

Sending positive vibes and adding you to my list for prayers. My prayers are nondenominational so you can't sue me.

That would be nifty.

Quail's random treasures from the deep.
It's something Drunk Duck has that no other site out there has now. It's history. It's internet archaeology.
