Pain—-Reliver Entry #3
THIS JUST IN FOR PAIN RELIVER NATION, BREAKING NEWS!
I have always wanted to make silly simple sucky comics about whatever comes to mind, so I decided to EXPAND Pain Reliver Cinematic Blog Universe to incorporate something of a comic spread of sorts. I grew up reading shitty webcomics and with that grew a wish to make my own!
This one is a life update kinda sorta. Called “I’m employed! Less art, more shmoney” (which is coded language for “Alby has been targeted with psychological warfare”), and the accompanying playlist, “RIP D’ANGELO”, is dedicated to the devastating passing of R&B legend D’Angelo.
The comic itself is far less comic-y and acts more as a journal entry, mayhaps maybe one can see it as a graphic novel if they desire, but I’ve got ideas brewing (as always) for more brief stuff that takes on the traditional form of a comic.
ALSO I have decided mfs will have to simply get good at reading my chicken scratch because Girl. I’m They/shegirlbossing right now. I do not have the time to be transcribing everything for you. Play pretend as a renowned decipherer reading the ancient scripts of a revered emperor or something idk.
Anyway. Here
Nothing stellar, this one was especially low effort. I’d like to get a bit of grounding in terms of style for a comic, but I think I’ll just experiment and tinker with it from here on out. + I think future comics will vary in effort tbh.
Just want to say that I think there are far more severe injustices than being employed. I’m honestly grateful that after my wretchedly long long loonnnggg job search that I at least have SOMETHING.
There’s whole anti-capitalist, anti-work diatribes you could get out of me, but right now, considering I was near dirt poor before this job, I feel like an elderly person entranced by the bright, gaudy graphics and numbers of a slot machine whenever I look at my bank account.
Btw just wanted to add that I was lowkey doubtful of the new Earl and put off listening to it for a bit, but it might be one of his greatest! And Voodoo is one of my favorite albums of D’Angelo❤️🩹
HENNYWAY. More art on art account soon maybe. I just got expensive ass colored pencils because I was frustrated with the things I’ve posted as WIPs on my story and thought the only sole solution that will Save Me is to acquire better and bougier colored pencils. This is honestly the solution for most problems in life ever.
But while I’m down on the art side of things, other than getting a job, a lot of great things have been going on. I hit 225 on my hip thrust, went on a gorgeous fall hike, eye doctor said my eyes look healthy and my prescription didn’t change #dudefuckyes, some guy tried to rizz me up in a music store and I discovered you shouldn’t do that to me because I’m cursed with Music Autism and I get far too locked in the moment I enter any place that sells CDs (He performatively purchased a Chat Pile CD because I put him onto them. Pussy is Power, but I respect his game nonetheless), and still am able to do plenty of goofing with friends😸🌅🌅🌅
