Hello Bored Panda! I’m a Boston-based writer and artist who posts comics online for random strangers on the internet. I always dreamed of being a cartoonist when I was little, so last year I decided to give it a shot — and now I’m finally doing it!

Here are some of my favorite comics I've drawn this year, so far.

For more of my comics on Bored Panda, see parts 1 & 2.

So as I mentioned, I’m currently working on a little series about Moongirl, the obnoxious free spirit we all hate. She’s the sort of person who calls herself a 'soulpreneur' or an 'empath' or whatnot. Just kind of a bummer, you know what I mean? But I think that specific kind of internet personality is hilarious, so I’m developing a whole series of comics around her — and I’m really happy with how it’s turning out!

I would make a comment about how relatable this is, but I'm worried someone might be mad at me for it

When it comes to my comics overall, well, this is the third part already but it actually took many months of work before I had any art I felt half-decent about sharing. I think the main thing that kept me pushing myself to keep doing it was watching each comic improve very slightly over the last one.

This one hits the bullseye! Those who yell the hardest are usually exactly what they condemn.

At any given time, I have 100+ ideas jotted down in my notes for future comics. If I’m feeling excited about an idea, I try to get it sketched out pretty quickly, otherwise, it often joins that ongoing void of ideas I may never get around to fleshing out.

My memory is terrible — I have to write down ideas the moment I have them, otherwise, they’ll be lost to the ether. Sometimes I can’t even remember the nonsense I write down in the first place. What does “Tulsa bridge thing” mean, Rusty? The world may never know.

One of my favorite topics to explore has always been the way people interact on the internet. I post comics to Reddit pretty regularly, and Reddit more than any other social network really seems to exacerbate the Very Online ways people interact with each other — and I love it.

Yeah, whenever conservatives call people snowflakes I'm like.....ok......sure.....YOU'RE mad about ME being trans, you're losing it over "woke M&Ms", but the "liberals" are snowflakes? Honey, the call is coming from inside the house.

Even a person who is pure in heart, And says their prayers by night, May become a 'whatever the hell that is' when the wolfbane blooms, And the moon is full and bright.”

Whatever gave you that preposterous hypothesis? Did Deb tell you that perhaps? *Deb*

I like that every sentence ends with a . I read it so unexcitedly in my head (is there such a word unexcitedly?)

To be fair, the higher you go, the less work you need to do, so it does make sense.. why not?

It's so weird to me that we can make fun of people who believe in astrology but we can't make fun of people who believe in god. Your sky daddy is someone else's astrology. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Am I the only one to somehow hear Moongirl saying "hooray!" in my head when I read the third panel?
