Hello, Knucklehead!
I hope you're having a good summer. I hope you're taking a little time off to relax. Rest is important. At least that's what I tell myself. Which brings me to this week's new comic…

NEW COMIC
Grustle Hours
|
|
|
|
|
I think about time a lot. Like, a whole lot. There's so much I want to do in my lifetime. So I worry that, unless I make the most of every minute, I won't get to everything. This anxiety has made me very susceptible to productivity and hustle culture. The Grustle Monster is, obviously, the embodiment of my anxiety. I have conversations like this with him every day.
|
But lately, my relationship to time and achievement has been changing. Part of that has been due to several big personal events in the last year. Part of it is due to reading the book 4000 Weeks by Oliver Burkeman. Now I'm trying to think about time as this beautiful, limited resource of unknown quantity. This lovely video from my old boss Ze Frank sums it up nicely.

So do you have a Grustle Monster in your head? How do you deal with him?

THE WORST OF BAD CARICATURES
Andre & Nathaly
|
|
|
Just a reminder that, if you need a cheap, funny gag gift for a friend, a lover, or an enemy, I'm terrible at drawing caricatures and will happily butcher their likeness for only $5 per person. Order now at Bad Caricatures.
