A four-panel black-and-white comic labeled “MadScott.”

Panel 1: A simple outdoor scene with a small tree on rolling hills. Text reads: “I remember drawing comics as a creative outlet.”

Panel 2: A glass sitting on a surface. Text at the top reads: “Recently I draw more as a form of social therapy.” A speech bubble from off-panel says, “Let me refill that cup.”

Panel 3: A bearded person looks forward with a neutral, slightly weary expression. Three boxed captions around them read: “WE’RE ALL HERE,” “SITTING IN THE STEW,” and “TOGETHER.”

Panel 4: A small figure walks away across a simple landscape. A thought bubble reads: “I’m ready to go back to those earlier days maybe for just a little while.”

The comic reflects on shifting from drawing for personal creativity to using it as a way to process shared social stress, with a nostalgic longing for simpler times.

Together

Let's just sit and refill each other up from the well of hope.

General social question

This is my home base and if you are one of the few who follow me here Thank You! I don’t think of this as a social platform though. This is like friends hanging out in my workshop. I do have a general social media question for all of you. Do you treat your different social apps to different content? If someone follows you in one space is there a reason to follow you somewhere else or do you choose to post everything everywhere? I’m thinking that I will start adding different flavors to different apps. Mostly I post drawings everywhere but I also take a lot of car photos. I’m going to stew on this a bit and get back to you.
