Furious Peculiar (Comic #790)

While I like the idea of getting curious when furious, I’m not a fan of using a saying to smother a person’s feelings and telling someone else how to be. “Don’t be furious, be curious” rankles all my feathers in a way that “Get curious when furious” doesn’t. One tells you not to have an emotion, the other give guidance about how to travel through an emotion.

Thanks to all my patrons and a special big extra thanks to Kate Webb, Erik Owomoyela, Stuart Barrow, Jesse the K, Brian Fies, Tracey Radford, and Jay Hedtke.

472b: Special Announcement, update new schedule plus hats

Dear Friends of the Things, Our three times a week schedule has suffered over the last few months (stupid real life!). We’re getting back into it, but the struggle to earn a living wage (through job search or freelance) is time and energy consuming. We’re going to a once a week update schedule. Fresh Things every Monday is a can hold ourselves to. Thank you for your support, knowing there are folks out there reading us, wanting the next comic, keeps us going. Much Love The Things

Things Comic over at Uncanny Magazine!

The fab editors at Uncanny put it best:

Space Unicorns! As you may remember, one of the stretch goals for the Uncanny Magazine Year Two Kickstarter was a new webcomic feature. Each issue, the multi-talented Liz Argall will have a special Uncanny edition of her webcomic Things Without Arms and Without Legs where they react to a story in the current issue of Uncanny Magazine.

This month, they’re reacting to Yoon Ha Lee’s Uncanny Magazine Issue 8 story, “Interlingua.”
