87. Naked Flesh is For Squids

Yeah, societal body expectations are bullshit.

Plus, I like my clothes :P They make me feel warm and fuzzy.

86. Depression Demon Has a Creepily Long Index Finger

Hey all.

I'm back.

Goodbye To the Circus...

...we hope you enjoyed the show.


Trust me to quote an Aqua song :P



But yes, my little reprobates, I am putting Flying Biscuits Syndrome on an indefinite hiatus.

The main reason I make this comic is because it is a catharsis for me. That's how it started out in the beginning, I never thought it would become popular within my group of friends nor when I started putting it online that people from all over the world would read it. Thank goodness for Twitter, eh? Lately, I have been struggling what I can draw and write about as a lot of it is very ad-hoc, there's no schedule to follow because this is not what I am trying to do as a full-time job. Very much a spur of the moment schedule. This means that a lot of time can pass before I post an update, also I may have good intentions about a particular subject, but it doesn't always go how I planned. I am sure that this happens to a lot of artists who make comics full-time. Take my post about coming out as pansexual, after talking with some people I realised that it could potentially offend those who identify as bi; again not my intention.

Maybe that's it, I'm not an artist, I am not particularly well-read or nerdy for that matter, and sometimes when I want to post about a particular subject, given my political background, I feel that I just cannot convey eloquently noelr clearly what I want to say. To say the least, it depresses me sometimes. I've put unrealistic expectations on myself when it's not necessary; this is only a bit of fun. So, I've decided to come back to this at a later time. I have a list of posts I want to do and maybe I might fall into a better habit when I come back. Maybe even create a dedicated Facebook page. There are also some personal matters I need to work through before I come back to Flying Biscuits.

Thank you for liking my little drawings, they are a minuscule, aren't they?

Don't forget to take care of each other, there's a lot of shit happening in the world.

'Till the next time!

85. Even Above Average Height is Still Considered Short...for Men, I Think

It started out as me complaining about feeling short, despite being above average in height, into just drawing out the weird shit friends say to each other. As much as I love Dave, I am not sure that I would turn him into a coat ;)

I still feel short, however :P

84. It's Good to be Courteous

Yes, Feltzilla is, in fact, floating. He has that power.

Following yesterday's post, I thought something more light-hearted would be more fitting. So here is Doom-Ghost and Llamamuerte offering a welcome gift to Feltzilla.

Feltzilla is property of Justin Hubble. Go check out their work here, here, and here :)

83. Honest Conversation: A Rope of Sand

There you have it, yours truly is in fact pansexual rather than bisexual. I know it's not going to affect me much, but it's nice to have found an identity that I truly feel it's right for me.

Thank you, Justin :)

Also, I hope you don't mind that I included Feltzilla in this, it was too cute to pass up :3

UPDATE

Definitions of sexuality vary from person to person, what I have demonstrated here is just simply a conversation I had with a friend, because I personally felt that 'bisexual' didn't quite fully encapsulate my sexual identity. It is different for everyone, and I also understand that some bisexuals might feel offended by what I have written here. Some bisexuals might feel that they themselves are not limited by gender or that I am undermining their orientation by what I have written.

It is not my intent to do so, neither is it my intent to suggest that bi is a pathway to pan. Having said that I also do not want to suggest that you also have to be pan to be in a relationship or pursue someone who is not cis-gendered. Gender and sexuality are a massive and complex concepts, and I am doing the best I can to understand with the help of some pretty awesome people :)

I am open to discussions, but remember this, be happy with who you are and your own expressions of gender and sexuality. There's a whole lot of us on this planet :)

Take care,

JFS

82. This is Why You READ the Script

A Facebook conversation that got a little out of hand. It only started as a reference to Firefly and the fact that my knee was betraying me :P

Also, Seaweed does in fact have a dragon eye tattoo in his armpit. Don't ask me how I know that O.O
