Another attempt at a simple webcomic. I thought this was funny, maybe you will as well. I may have been a few drinks in when I thought this one up.
Writing
Words put onto paper. Or fonts rendered on a page.
Wireless Earbud Touch Controls
I’ve finally jumped on the wireless earbud bandwagon and I really enjoy using them. Except for one major flaw, which you can probably tell from the title. I don’t understand who in their right mind decided that these things needed touch controls.
Gamification Ex Habitica
Ever feel like you’re drowning in tasks, unable to get anything done? You might even end up paralyzed, doing nothing at all. I’ve been there, but recently, I’ve taken steps to change that. Enter Habitica, a website that aims to help you improve your life through gamification.
Inaction is a Weapon of Mass Destruction
“Never Again” were the words spoken after the Second World War ended alongside the Holocaust. But it did happen again. And again. And it’s still happening now. In Cambodia I’ve been visiting the Killing Fields and Holocaust Museums and one phrase stuck with me. Doing nothing is not an option.
Thoughts and Feelings on Flowers
I’ve always had an interesting relationship with flowers. It’s not to say I don’t like them, but I’ve always had difficulty grasping a lot of the customs and rituals around flowers. Why do people buy them and place them in vases only so they can die?
The Deadly Money Collectors
I dropped out of business studies in high school. When we were taught about inflation I got increasingly frustrated when I could get a simple answer to “why do prices need to rise?” I was told that “they just do for a healthy economy”, but I still couldn’t understand why.
The Nature of Intelligence
Arthur C. Clarke once said that “it has yet to be proved that intelligence has any survival value.” It’s a statement that could still hold true today. Does our intelligence make us superior to other animals, or will it lead to our downfall?
Steamed Hams but it’s ChatGPT
Occasionally I will mess about with ChatGPT to see what it can do. I’ve learned that the plagiaristic algorithm is pretty bad at writing simple Python scripts, editing text, and overall just bad at all the things it’s not designed to do.
The Answer I Couldn’t Find
I’ve been an atheist for as long as I can remember. I would, however, describe my younger self as an “anti-theist”: vehemently opposed to anything religion. During that time I read a lot of scripture and mythology, seeking an answer I still haven’t found to this day.
The Ballad of the Traveller
This is just a random scribbling I made when I was in a dark place. I was feeling trapped and had a strong desire to escape and see the world.
