Long long ago, I drafted this post so that in the event that I got consumed by my nomadic lifestyle of traveling all around the globe and/or living out of a suitcase/my car, I’d still have something to share with you so you wouldn’t think I’d died.
(I may or may not have had a conversation in the past with Trish on how if she depended on my blog, it’d take her at least a month to know if I was alive or dead, because most of my posts are written and scheduled a month in advance.)
Today, I have a whole bunch of comics to share with you, also known as how I cheer myself up when I’m in one of those stormy raincloud moods!
I’m sorry in advance if you end up looking at the time and wondering how your entire day just disappeared.
The Oatmeal
If you haven’t heard of this yet…well, you should really go check it out. It’s awesome. <3
Pocket Princesses
If you’re at all a fan of Disney, or the Disney princesses, you will adore Pocket Princesses. Never mind the ruined adult expectations of the world due to Disney–just roll with it. These comics are adorable. :D
Liz Climo Comics
Cute animals comics more your thing? Not a problem! These never fail to make me smile! :]
(Speaking of instagram, if you’re a fan of food, cute animals, some slice-of-med-school-life posts, and most recently music, add me on instagram! :] )
Saucy Daikon & Huggable Eggplant
And those that like cute vegetables? I’ve got you covered too, m’friend!
Do you hate Disney, animals, and food? Do you perhaps also lack a soul? (Why are you even reading this? ;_; )
The Awkward Yeti
Maybe you’ll like cute organs of the body? No, don’t give me that look. Just check it out! (Especially gallbladder! Poor gallbladder. :'( I would so love to own a gallbladder badge reel!)
Cyanide & Happiness
Stick figure humor at its best! :P
Robot Hugs
This one doesn’t really fall under a single umbrella and is a little less light-hearted than the others, but you can expect to see lots of cats (c’mon, it’s the internet!), and discussions on identity/gender/sexuality, as well as some explorations of depression and mental illness!
Piled Higher & Deeper
While I’m not pursuing a PhD, I can definitely relate to this in some aspects. It’s about life (or lack thereof :'( ) in academia!
Scut Monkey Comics
This is unfortunately no longer updated, but it brings to life what it’s like to be in the medical field (har har)! The author of it published a book though, and these comics are the basis of why I’d recommend her book even though I haven’t read it yet. :P
Rather Humerus
This (sadly) is also no longer updated–do you notice a trend here? Do you think I’m still going to have free time in the future?! ;_; But it’s more on humor in the medical field!
(You’re welcome.)

Nice! Also check out PhD comics. The further you go in school, the more hilarious they become.

I have that in there! There’s a lot I can relate to, but I am soso glad I’m in clinical medicine! :P
Ah, I love Pocket Princesses too! :D I’m also a huge fan of Nemi, but I’m not sure where it can be found in English online.. It’s Norwegian, but I know the Metro UK prints it :)

hahaha, I’m so sorry! It’s good for if you ever happen to want to procrastinate though! :P
My two favorites are still leasticoulddo.com and questionablecontent.net. And of course the occasional penny arcade.
Author
I found out about questionablecontent fairly recently, but am off to check out the other one! (And yay for penny arcade!)
I can’t wait to check out these comics!
