Queued comics
I’m heading off for some summer lovin’, time to get some tan on this shamefully Irish skin. I’ve queued the next two comics, so fingers crosses all goes smoothly. I’ll fix the links when I get back for any folks reading from the beginning.
All my love,
Khale xox
no ED comics lately? :c
I publish one comic each Friday. Although I could post a whole stack at once, I’m finding that pacing myself this way is allows me to keep up. I work full time and have a lot on my plate, so once a week is about all I can keep up with (which is especially evidenced by the lack of new original art lately - have the desire, just not the time), sorry!
I really love how you depict the voices that you hear. How they are disguised and masqued. How they are all around you, suffocating you.
Thanks for the feedback. When trying to describe the way my internal voices often feel conflicted, I feel like what I’m saying is sounds crazy. Depicting them as entirely separate entities that have no discernible origin feels more honest to me, and helps me to express that it’s not as easy as ‘just changing your thinking’ when it comes to overcoming these voices.
Don't ever hesitate. Reblog this.

! i am so excited for the next pages in the ED comic! i can relate to so many parts of it, despite having started my ED tendencies very young, and having never worn a powersuit.
While I’m sorry to hear you’ve had similar struggles, I’m glad you find something to identify with in the comic. Everyone’s journey is unique and challenging, but we’re all in this together. On a practical note, I’ve still got a 20 page backlog, so there’s quite a bit more to come yet ;)
Can I just say how awesome and inspiring your blog is? Not only your comic (which I love) but just everything you post inspires me to be a better person and a better artist.
Wow, talk about a compliment. Thank you so much! I hope it continues to bring you as much enjoyment as it brings me :)
I love the term 'we're expecting' when talking about pregnancy
because it makes it sound like there’s more than one outcome.
Yeah, we’re expecting a baby
but it could be a velociraptor.
*files this very relevant revelation away for future projects*
“If you get embarrassed every time you drop a pad or tampon—and it will happen—or every time a dude looks through your bag for a pen and finds one of these items instead, he gets to pretend that he is ignorant and that you are yucky for one more day. And that’s a day none of us can afford. Sooner or later, he’s going to be 53, and in Congress, and saying that he just doesn’t understand why people NEED birth control, all because no one had the decency to sit him down and tell him to stop pretending he doesn’t know about vaginas.”

i think it is a movement! it's called slutwalk, and there have been several popping up in different cities around the states. the first one was started in canada by a stupid comment made by a police officers about how women shouldn't dress like sluts in order to avoid getting raped. you should look it up! i think there's slutwalk nyc, which might be one of the bigger ones.
We have slutwalks in my city too ;) it’s a fantastic movement. Is the ‘this is what I was wearing’ sign a movement in itself, or just one very creative and pointed individual? I found the sign extremely powerful (and triggering) and can’t help but feel that that particular message might hit home for some doubters.
I need to stop buying LUSH products. I need to stop buying LUSH products. I need to stop buying LUSH products.
I have more than I need, they always end up sitting in my clothes drawers…
Sure, I smell amazing but I have more soap/bath bombs than I can possibly use, and these are a bit expensive to use as clothing perfume. >_>
But they’re SO PRETTY and they smell SO GOOD and the store calls me like a moth to the flame and I once I step inside I can’t leave until I have taken note of EVERY NEW PRODUCT and smelled EVERYTHING and bought something, whether I need it or not.
I need a support group.
I still haven’t learned where the LUSH store is located in my local shopping centre. I just walk in and follow the delicious smell until I find it. I’ve been there like 15 times since I moved here (to be fair, my local shopping centre is that really obnoxious one that brags about being the biggest in the southern hemisphere).
Either way, you should all get into their massage bars. You and your precious one will be having a deliciously sensual affair. I recommend Business Time ;)
Drama
Didn’t realise my girlfriend was sitting on the end of my tracksuit pants string when I rolled over. String came completely out of waistband. OH NO.
Me: D:
Girlfriend: first world problem, my love? ;D
