So I answered my own questions;
1) my boss at this last place mistreated me, though not necessarily deliberately.
2) drawing satisfies 3 of 4things really important to me and gives a temporary sense of the fourth, so of course I'm motivated to do it! I've been justifying the outlay of time and effort to myself as "at some point I'll go f/t professional," but maybe I don't NEED to go pro nor justify it.
This brings me to the question of "do I actually want to go f/t pro?" which is complex.
I'm driven to improve my drawing and painting, but it's hard to reconcile my belief that I'm building skills to do this for a living, with my incredible lack of hope about ever successfully escaping this mess.
If I really feel that hopeless, why am I that motivated? If I really feel that motivated, why don't I have optimism to match?
If I ever did a story or movie about the ACW, I think I'd want this as part of the soundtrack. https://youtu.be/OKOifoyMbRs
... it says something about where I grew up that how I imagine the ACW is a lot of trudging up and down steep slopes in pine forest.
Copying comics pages by Carlos Meglia and Joe Madureira, Wednesday and today. Meglia is really good at planning around word balloons, but I got stuff from Mad! too. #drawings

She managed to upset me enough to skip lunch. Which means even though I’m not feeling as miserable as earlier, I still feel like it’s been decided I’m an inept moron, and I’m now low on blood sugar. At worst I’m still stuck here 80 more minutes. Trying to remember I have only one more day trapped here.
Lots of random gunk, but some drawings and cooking talk too. Obsesses about DnD and related topics. Left-leaning/profoundly frustrated politics. Black lives matter; trans rights are human rights.
