</a></p><p>I thought this was just me, but just this morning, I heard reference to the same in two places:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://www.vulture.com/2020/03/good-one-podcast-marc-maron-end-of-the-world.html">Marc Maron on Good One Podcast</a> (which I highly recommend)</li>
<li><a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/coronavirus-is-making-a-lot-of-people-anxious-and-depressed-but-some-sufferers-actually-feel-better-now">This article on The Daily Beast</a> (not something I normally read, but the headline caught me)</li>
</ul>
<p>I&#8217;ve stopped and started comics a lot, and it&#8217;s been hard to find the time. But lately, a few ideas have popped into my head and I wanted to get them down. This isn&#8217;t some sort of ploy for fame or a quarantine project, but it makes me feel better to make them, and hopefully it makes you feel better to read them, too.</p>
<p>I know it&#8217;s been a while since I posted, so if you&#8217;re an old reader, say hi in the comments! Let me know how you&#8217;re doing.</p>
