Impressive use of paint to mask the credits, but fear not I've recovered them:

[–] markz@suppo.fi 35 points 23 hours ago

Wow, OP's is removing credits from every comic. What a loser.

[–] chatokun@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 21 hours ago

Hmm, I just commented elsewhere that I hardly downvote posts but this... this is worthy of a downvote.

Genuinely, what do you have against putting artist credit in your posts? Every single post, the credit has been cropped out or otherwise manually removed. Why? What do you gain from this?

[–] night_petal@piefed.social 17 points 19 hours ago

Please ban posts that don't give credit.

A battery icon feels like an odd choice as a container of anxiety. A ball of squiggly lines or some lighting bolts that disappear gradually would make more sense to me but hey, it still conveys the message.

I'm not even going to beat around the bush, it's straight up the opposite of an appropriate choice.

Made me absolutely confused reading the comic, to the extent I couldn't understand what it was telling me until I forced my brain to override the meaning of that icon.

You can only intuitively use a battery bar to represent a good thing where the full state is desirable (mood, energy etc) not a bad thing where the full state isn't.

You typically want a battery full, and not drained empty. But this is an anxiety battery. Do not charge the anxiety battery ever.

Who do I have to kill to get someone that can and will do that for me again?

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Again? What happened the first time?

[–] oldscratchXV@lemmy.world 2 points 23 hours ago

I lost them.

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don't know about murder, but finding someone with a long fluffy tail makes it much harder.

[–] oldscratchXV@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I wasn't talking about looking for a cat.

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

It doesn't seem like they were either.

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why does the black cat appear to be so long? It could be two cat's length

It's lying on top of the orange one who is likely in the same position. Kittens around that age can be weirdly lanky though.
