Panel 1 Comic titled “Rejection Sensitivity Explained.” The ADHD Alien character stands beside another person who responds casually with the words “Oh, thanks.” The reaction is neutral and calm. The ADHD Alien character looks worried and overthinks the interaction. Caption text reads: “When people react neutrally to me, I think they secretly hate me.”

Panel 2 The ADHD Alien character sits curled up on the floor in a dim room, looking anxious and overwhelmed. The caption reads: “It’s like my logic turns off and an emergency mode turns on.” Thought bubbles show spiraling worries: “I must’ve done something wrong.” “I need to figure out what I did wrong.” “Did I overstep?”

Spent all vacation worrying that the people I’d meet wouldn’t like me. They liked me 😭. Could’ve enjoyed my croissant in peace

Creators are alway worried about annoying people by promoting thier Kickstarter…but here’s the thing…who cares?!

The people who are not interest or annoyed by the constant posts will just ignore

We will take strike action next week unless the University rules out compulsory redundancies.

The executives we have lost confidence in continue to forecast the need for another £20m of savings. All from staff losses.

We’ve already lost over 600 colleagues. When will the job cuts end?

"Real"

It’s astonishing. I think I couldn’t possibly despise him more, and then I discover he’s written The Worst Book in the World, Ever. A hundred thousand pub bores’ most grindingly tedious streams of logorrhoea, boiled down into a diamond-hard turd of instantaneously brain-melting ultra drivel.

I hope the greens don't accept them tbh. I would really rather the Greens REPLACE Labour, not do a reform and welcome them in.

A Wee Bit Magic by Ely Percy YouTube video by ScotsHoose Yaldi

A new story from Ely, who wrote the excellent Duck Feet and who is also excellent :)

Green MP Hannah Spencer pursued and attacked by anti-tran activists, but “violent man attacks woman for supporting trans people” goes against the “transphobes are the champions and protectors of women” narrative the media like to push so I guess it won’t get much play.

This is an Art Attack.

A new newsletter discussing art at the end of the world, trench and plague art, memento mori, the danger of a frozen culture, and reading too much into the 28 Years Later sequels.

The defining feature of the modern far right is that it’s made up of deeply weird and unpleasant people who want, more than anything, to be cool and popular. And if they can’t earn that status legitimately they’ll co-opt it by force.

Of course we did.

Interesting to note that the FOI was only partly upheld as well - wonder what they've held back
