yeah, sorry for being a bit melodramatic--it was late at night ;)
Anyway, I thought about this for a long time. There's been lots of times when I sat down to make a comic and I just couldn't make anything that felt right. It could just be that I'm out of practice, it could just be that I have a lot more self-doubt now than I did back when I made comics a lot more often. And some of it is that there's other projects I really believe in whenever I have spare time and energy. Or maybe it's that my own political/philosophical/technical/scientific/mathematical beliefs are so close to the line of cranksterdom that joke versions of them hit too close to home. I think I've even told myself a couple times "ha ha, this thing I believe is weird I can't wait until I've established a firm enough foundation under this so I can make jokes about it!"
But perhaps most of all, u.gif continuously changed while I changed--while we changed--and then I stopped making them and continued changing, and now I don't know what they're supposed to look like. I hope to make art again--though it's sadly behind a list of other personal ambitions I have right now. |
