A single panel cartoon. Moominpapa leans over a newspaper on a table, holding an empty glass. Snufkin is seated on the opposite side of the table, head in hands, puffing on his pipe disconsolately. Moomonpapa says to Snufkin: 'Tell us all that'a happening out in the world!' Snufkin replies: 'Fuss and misery..'

Here’s just a little bit more skull girl, from a bit I starter but didn’t finish on #hourlycomicsday

Bonus #DarwinDay content:

Six of the best grumpy Darwin quotes.

I loved this one! Might have to steal this idea of making a comic from the 3 prompts.

Time to return to our spiritual home

Tomorrow I have to talk to two whole plumbers. But maybe I will also have time to dig up some roots and do some drawing.

Doing hourly comics day definitely switched back on some dopamine brain switch for me that I don’t know how I feel about.

Hourly Comics Day 2026 Part 1 of 2

Sometime the day before My two cats are communing with my baby. The white cat (Lady) says "Ok, this one is for waking them up first. Rock, paper, scissors–". In the second frame we see them each put a paw in and the baby has made scissors. Lady says "Ah, you win again".

12:30am I am softly humming Chopin to my baby. She is wide awake "eeeeeee", acquiring consciousness

7:30am I look after Plover (not her real name) most mornings so Mélodie can get more sleep. The baby is pictured saying "ee-ayagoo ayyyyyyyy" on the bed. We have our little rituals. I stand with her in front of the window saying "good morning, spruce!" Recently I've rediscovered my love for my mocha pot. It's a quiet way to make coffee, one-handed.

Am I using the wrong hashtag? Is it #hourlycomicday? #askingforafriend

graphic reads ‘hourly comics day disability diaries’ with a drawing of me (white nonbinary guy w black facial scruff & short green hair) lying in bed looking shattered. Lower text reads ‘hello. I make comics, and—‘

“This year’s my 10 year anniversary of chronic illness (ME/CFS)” - a small cartoon of me with a balloon going ‘wow!!’ then ‘…wait.’ In an inset past year’s comic, I’m going ‘hopefully later I’ll be well enough to draw a little!’ but end up lying still in bed all day - ‘alas’. “*8 years of my illness being “moderate to severe” = mostly bedbound, unable to walk down the street or prepare a meal without collapsing.”

“I’ve been making a day of hourly comics every February since I first got ill” (some pics of many years worth of hourlies,w ith me waking up feeling exhausted, too ill to sit up)

“It can be hard, but it means a lot to share the reality of my daily life honestly and to hear from others in the same boat. So here’s Hourly comics day 2026” - a small baloon now reads ‘still here!’ next to the same drawing as the first, me now waking up. 9am - “good morning my body feels like it’s been run over by a train’
