I think the last scraps of my childhood just died with a swift drop of my stomach, slight nausea, and some despair.

I think this comic just suddenly and irrevocably changed me as a person, and I’m not sure it’s for the better or worse. I suppose I will have to feel these feelings to figure out what they’re supposed to be, but goddammit it isn’t pleasant.

I suppose this had to happen at some point, and I guess now was the time.

These things can sneak up on you but it gives you the chance to try and make sense of it. The last few years I’ve been trying to deal with the loss of my parents and have found that I’ve really been looking for a sense of community that I’d lost. I don’t know where you’re at or what you’re going through, but I’m honored this piece met you in this moment
