Speaking of brainstorming, I always hated that thing in school where you would have to show a mind map or something as proof of your ideation process. My process doesn’t involve writing a bunch of ideas and then picking one, it’s much more straightforward. What do I want to do here? Okay, I have an idea, now let’s turn that into something that works. Sometimes that involves having a bunch of ideas and throwing them out, but it’s much more organic than the brainstorming processes we had to do in school. I understand why they do that, because it’s otherwise impossible for the teacher to tell if the kids can actually think through their process. It was just really annoying for me, who would do the project and then make the mind map or whatever afterward.
This strip’s patreon preview is kind of about that, in the sense that I talked through the process of coming up with the joke.
Caitlin is Employee of the Week! Patreon is a predictable form of income, which I appreciate, because freelancing and doing cons creates a wild income rollercoaster! If everyone who reads the comic chipped in a dollar a month, I’d be able to stop panicking about picking up freelance work and do more of my own stuff, which would be ideal.

It is a good idea. She should steal it.
That’s the kind of thinking she could be doing if she wasn’t so busy being “confused” and “scared of everything” haha.
