I originally wrote this post about a month ago, and it went online for my Patrons last week. That was before the recent protests in the United States, so I wanted to take a moment to acknowledge that the situation we're all in has gotten even more intense.
As this strip makes light of the quarantine situation, I want to make it clear that I mean no disrespect to the many people whose lives are upside-down right now. I'm joking about the current situation because for many of us, humor helps us deal with difficult times. It's why I'm still posting even when times are so serious; because even in our darkest times, a laugh can make it bearable.
Tough times don't last. Tough people do. We'll get through this together, guys.

One of the biggest perks of the freelance life is that you can work from almost anywhere. For introverts, that often means staying at home for long periods of time, and we're pretty fine with that.
This recent situation with COVID-19 and self-quarantine has made me appreciate how fortunate I am. Not everybody was able to comfortably work while everything was shut down, and yet I've had more time to work than ever. I'm not saying I've had it easy, but I sure as hell could've had it worse, and I'm grateful for that.
To all those out there who've been hurt by this whole situation, I'm sorry, and I hope I can find a way to really help in the days to come. Stay strong.
Rock on, guys, and never stop drawing.
