Hourly comic day 2025 - Part 1
Participated for the first time and enjoyed it a lot! Took some extra time to touch up the drawings afterwards. Not sure if that's cheating, but I did it anyway. Very happy with having done it.

Hourly Comic Day 2025 (6/7)

(I was later informed that he did, in fact, get hand-fed the delicious soft meats from the leftovers long before I threw the bones away. Such a tough life, being a dog.)
#HourlyComicsDay2025 #HourlyComicDay #Hourly

Hourly Comics. 11pm. Dynamic shot of the dog looking up at something smelly on the counter. "Sir really wants the leftover chicken bones. I explain this is not for dogs." Next panel shows Jack scraping the leftovers into the garbage, while Sir stares on in dismay. Third panel closeup of said dismay. "He...he's devastated." 12am. Jack and Sir stand outside in the dim black cold. There's this weird beeping. "There is a long, droning, mechanical beeping that rings out late at night here. A reminder of time running short?"

Hourly Comic Day 2025 (5/7)

Hourly Comics. 8pm. Pika made soup! Chicken, carrot, mushroom, rice, cabbage...mm. Then we watched Batman fight a sabretooth. In the accompanying panel, Batman's costume is ripping off sexily. 9pm. Jack sits hunched over a table full of potted plants while Sir curls up on the ground. "Drawin' pictures", it says. Umbrulla gives Jack a kiss on the head. 10pm. Jack is still drawing, thinking "Don't cross your legs don't cross your legs don't cross your legs". He's drinking decaf tea. In the last panel, she scritches her dog, who is wiggling his booty very cutely. Jack exclaims "The wiggle dance!"

Hourly Comic Day 2025 (4/7)

Hourly comics. 3pm-4pm shows a cartoon car zooming. "A blissfully boring drive home after we grab groceries. If only every drive could be so nice." 5pm-6pm are moodier panels of Jack and Umbrulla walking the dog, in a place with hills and fences and snow and pine trees. "Walkin' the dog. There was much to be discussed." 7pm is Jack sitting at the computer, stylus in hand, with a dark screen that says 'Redacted'. "Fixing up the cover on a secret project while talking to my sister on the phone." Next panel is an amalgamation of speech bubbles. They read "Mom", "Oh we're so fucked, man. Groceries are gonna be so expensive", "I'll call her for you", "Steve was laughing hysterically about tariffs", "Our housing market is even more fucked than the Americans'", "Betrayed", "This company pulled out of Canada Jan 31st," "It's too expensive to live here", "Moved to Mexico". A caption reads "Much to discuss."

Hourly Comic Day 2025 (3/7)

Hourly comics. 1pm. Jack and Umbrulla go on a gay cafe date, getting a hot cider and turmeric hot chocolate. There was a very cute dog. Not pictured: Already eaten quiche and muffin. 2pm. Umbrulla stares at a book with skepticism. Opens the book. Then slams it abruptly and exclaims "Ugh, god! I can't do this." "W-what happened?!" Jack asks, in dismay. "This #1 New York Times Bestseller is written entirely in passive voice!" Umbrulla yells. "No!" Jack sobs.

spot me trying to draw my friends' cats absolutely tiny...
#HourlyComicDay #HourlyComicsDay #pwME #trans

I can place text and plan comic layouts even when I’m too ill to draw out roughs.
(trying to use my non-dominant hand to protect from RSI)

Me and some friends have been in work alignment recently, even though we work on very different things
(arrow to northern England) Mal has also been working on some research and complex backgrounds
(20th C working class history and fashion / Looking at how priest robes fold / CENSORED)

Shazleen has been ill and doing thumbnails too
(Shazleen, sick with cats: I only did 10 yday…
Me: TEN??? 10??? HOW DO YOU WORK SO FAST???)

Me: 4 thumbnails/ day max
Working out settings in the margins…

12pm
I have become well enough to get out of bed!!

On days when I’m ill, walking is hard so I try to do everything on 1 trip to the bathroom
(dress / wash / shave / T gel)

My partner works from home for a US company so video calls tend to be later in the day
(My partner, who’s apparently been working all morning in pajamas): tell no one…

ok here's the actual diaries. (Drew these yesterday to make my life easier btw)
#HourlyComicDay #HourlyComicsDay #pwME

DIARIES: 9am
My health is worse in the mornings. As usual, I’m not well enough to move much or get out of bed yet. (But electric bed can tilt me up!)

My partner brings me food
💚porridge with frozen blueberries💚

When I’m this ill, I like listening to podcasts in the daytime - feels like a conversation and keeps me company - and audiobooks at night - Sometimes calm and absorbing.

Sometimes books are too absorbing.
Me GASPING sat up in the night with headphones on
My partner (bleary): what
Me: something terrible has happened to the tortoise god!!!!

This week my mum sent me a podcast about slime moulds. (I sent her back a video about siphonophores id been looking up for the deepsea game I’m making). This is our family love language actually.

I’m not really well enough to concentrate or understand, and have to stop (illness affects my brain.)

But… Did you know slime moulds can find their way through a maze??
Podcast: “My friend made a scale map of an ikea store and a slime moulds identified the shortest way out”

Most topics are so strange and interesting if you research enough

Hourly comics from yesterday

It's impossible to talk about my daily life without talking about my health, so they're also disability diaries

Sketchy comic reads hourly comics day - aka for me: disabled comics diaries day

If you don’t know me, I’m
- disabled and bedbound
- severe post-viral illness for 9 years
- can’t do 99% of the stuff I could before and still gutted about it.

Medical file -
> moderate-severe ME/CFS nervous system disease that affects many parts of my body
> probably permanent, no real treatment,
> a bit like having flu all the time
> all activity makes it worse, including showering, thinking, sitting up, watching a film etc
(a doctor saying ‘yikes’)

(arrows point to my body) achy. jaw pain from gritting teeth against pain. exhausted. too ill to sit up. brain fog
Me: another beautiful day in the world

Sketchy comics, reading: in the parts of my day I’m well enough to work, I manage not to think about my health

[looking up and seeing I’m in a cage, with lots of stuff like parties, kids, cooking, travel and events out of reach]
but talking to strangers who don’t know about it always makes me feel how small and limited my life is, and diary comics are no exception

(me wild with jealousy at people healthy enough to go to the shop or do the washing up)
but I think it’s useful being honest - i like sharing my life one day of the year, especially for all the other chronically ill people and their friends out there

Aaaand that's that! I did my first Hourly Comic day in like.....a decade?? I drew a comic about drawing my comic but that pretty much sums up what I do when I'm not working lol #hourlycomicday

My hourly comics I drew in a moleskin with a jetstream pen, featuring myself as an owl!
5pm: A snack! Also looking at my to-do list that has a long list of things I keep putting off, like phone calls I don't wanna make. I will pretend I do not see it and all is fiiiine. It's fine.
6 - 7pm: I shade my comic pages and then pause to think about my blorbos and what they're doing in this update and I have FEELINGS about them. Then I get back to work and do all the admin work that comes along with posting a comic on the internet.
7-8pm: I draw my hourlies from 5pm on! I'm hungry!
8-9pm: I'm finally getting dinner but it turns out I'm being lazy and eating cereal haha. I did it! I finished hourly comic day 2025!
