  • Yes! I love to incorporate all kinds of colors and patterns in my outfits while maintaining a distinctly “alt” style, and to see others do the same. I’m half-considering posting a few looks if I find the right community but think the desire for anonymity won’t let me.

    Having fun with your style and enjoying the music and your community/events is way more important than fitting in with a certain aesthetic.

  • Every time I read about microwave cooking, I think back to this article where the author tried recipes from what has been labeled as the world’s saddest cookbook: Microwave Cooking for One.

  • I read that in the voice of a German excited to show you his kitchen.

  • I wanted to find out where it came from because it’s such a clever and fun design. Found a Facebook post from someone who says they made it themselves after being inspired by another artist who makes furniture out of sea mines (I assume they were referring to this one).

    So I guess we can call it…minecraft.

  • As others have already said, exposure can be a good way to overcome fear. Start by going somewhere nearby. Maybe ask a friend or someone you feel safe with to accompany you on walks or public transportation a few times until you are familiar with the route or area. Download an offline map in case you get lost. 

    You said you feel out of place at your local library , but they’re a quiet, safe place where everyone generally minds their own business. You can probably even bring take your own ebooks there to read. You don’t have to interact with anyone if you don’t want to, just get used to being in a different setting.

  • You could try an alternative front-end for Instagram. I haven’t used them since I avoid the platform altogether, but I found this thread on the topic.

  • Canada has been boycotting American products and imposing counter-tariffs on them. Their prime minister also announced a plan to reduce reliance on the US by requiring its federal government to buy from local suppliers, creating a fund to help sectors most affected by US tariffs, investing in Canadian agriculture, and training its local workforce, among other things.

    Here’s a link to that goes into detail about the measures being taken.

  • Love your style of line art, the theme, and his facial expression.

  • I often combine grocery shopping with the walks I take. If I’m not in a hurry and don’t need too many things that would be hard to carry, I’ll stop by the grocery store. When the weather is bad I might buy enough to avoid going out far for the next few days. I also keep a list of what I need to buy on my phone and update it when something runs out or is bought.

  • Hot.

    Also the inspiration for 🫃

  • Thanks for the background information! I try to post lesser-known artists from various countries. Sometimes it’s just whatever happens to be on my playlist that day (some of it is a bit, ah, vulgar, so I’m trying to behave myself).

    I discover quite a bit of new music in this community myself. I liked the song you posted yesterday, Her by Claire Voyant, for instance.

  • Happy New Year! You did a nice job with the texture on the balloons. 🎈

  • Surely there’s a less passive-aggressive way to ask someone about their hobbies and get across that you have interests beyond work…

  • 🤨 shut it, melon boy.

  • An infestation.

  • It is possible to exclude romantic and sexual activities while still having feelings for someone, and sometimes those feelings will subside with time, but whether you can manage that in a healthy way is up to you.

    Also, platonic by definition is “of, relating to, or being a relationship marked by the absence of romance or sex”, regardless of whether the participants are straight or not.

  • Yes, analytics aren’t inherently bad. They can be helpful in planning inventory and improving services like you said, but that can be accomplished with anonymized data.

    The problems arise when more data is collected than is necessary to make helpful business decisions, when highly specific individual profiles and digital footprints are created, and when the data is shared with third parties who can use it for purposes other than the ones listed by who you first gave them to.

  • It’s my first time hearing of this strip, thanks for sharing. Found it on archive.org, viewable with an account, if anyone is curious.

  • I don’t think it’s wrong for shops to offer a simple, optional reward program (spend x amount, get y discount) as an incentive to shop there. Often you can enter a fake name and temporary email address or email alias (simplelogin.io has a free plan for aliases).

    It’s excessive data collection for targeting advertising, the push to install apps, and dynamic pricing which I strongly oppose, especially when there is a lack of transparency surrounding it.
