Webcomic of the Day: Hyperbole and a Half Update
Allie Brosh, the artist behind the popular webcomic Hyperbole and a Half broke silence from her indefinite leave to release the second part of Adventures in Depression, which chronicles the author’s personal struggle with clinical depression over the recent years. The latest issue, which comes after more than year and a half of silence, has already garnered raving feedback in the webcomic community as an accurate representation of the debilitating mental illness and how it can affect relationships with others.

These articles are brilliant.

don’t think i’ll bother drinking on a night out again. i don’t drink/go out to clubs much at all anyway (although i’ve been to the catty twice this week, what is my life), but i find that when i’m out with my best friends i really don’t need alcohol at all. both of my recent nights out were sober affairs and were some of the best nights out ever. not waking up with a ridiculous hangover, actually remembering everything that happened the night before, not spending fucking ages in a queue waiting for watered down pish, not spending hunners for the privilege, being able to have the car and not spend an hour waiting for/twenty quid on a taxi - all seems far more worthwhile than getting pished to me.

This was unlike the story
It was written to be
I was riding its back
When it used to ride me
And we were galloping manic
To the mouth of the source
We were swallowing panic
In the face of its force
today was cool. did some uni work which was rubbish, then decided i needed to get out in the sun. my brother and his girlfriend came round with my nephew jack (pictured) and we had an awesome day. jack is the most adorable wee kid, and it was also cool being able to just throw an american football about with my brothers in the garden for a while - we get on fine but we’ve all grown quite distant in the past few years, so it was cool to feel like we were actually brothers again.
great day. now to stress out about uni work some more.
