Keeps Getting Petter And Petter

Labour rehab support pays slightly more money than unemployment benefit. / I can buy a winter jacket! And decent intact shoes! And art supplies! / …Or not.

I’m lousy. I’m lazy. I’mdemotivated. I don’t know what I’ll do when I grow up. I’m gonna be thirty years old soon. I don’t know how to sell my labour. I barely have the self-discipline to make art. I’m a drunk. (etc etc) // — // But I’m still releasing a new LIPSYNC zine in Tampere Kuplii! / Topic is unemployment and anxiety! Ooh! Aah!

Tadaa! Femidistron pöydästä löytyy, ja punkkikekkereistä kautta maan. Pari euroa kustantaa, ehkä vähemmän ;D / See you in Feminist Comics Booth & punk gigs all across the country! Price is set at two…ish euros ;D

Automatized anarcho-communism now! Tax the robots! Grind the rich into biofuel!

I began the rehabilitative labour workshop in Legioonateatteri. / Hi! I’m Niksu, 27 years old, and I’m not interested in getting a job. // Excercise and getting up early is quite nice after all! // COMMON COLD! // I changed my mind, being awake and being alive both SUCK WHOLE ASS. // I’ve had long naps. That’s the only kind of naps I know how to take.

Then we went to Oulu! // OYT: NOITAVASARA! / Very long but beautiful ritual scenes. // I didn’t make any contact with the characters. / Huh, the main character is currently being manhandled. I’m not touched by this. / Or rather, they were not characters (Not even the ones based on historical figures! Such as Matthew Hopkins etc.) as much as they were archetypes and symbols. Not unlike tarot… // Read this paragraph! / React to this interrogation! / Make way to an actor climbing on top of the audience! / Interactive theatre makes me very uncomfortable.

Take the hand of the person you’re sitting next to and tell them: ”I LOVE YOU!” // – // Hee hee, hoo hoo.

Ahdistuskohtaus Tammelassa. Sivellintussi liian huokoiselle paperille, 2018. / Anxiety attack in Tammela district. Brushpen on too spongy a paper, 2018.

I can’t not look. / (Activation model – Poverty – Blight – Death) / LEAVE IT BE / Food donation – discontinued for not making profit. / I don’t have the energy to be angry anymore. All I got left is fear and anxiety. I haven’t felt this big a burden in years, although on an intellectual level I know that’s not the case.

LOOKS LIKE IT’S TIME TO REMIND NIXU OF GOOD THINGS IN LIFE AGAIN! / No, I wanna wallow in self-pity! Wallow, wallow. // I live in an anarcho-feminist queer commune in the best working-class city there is. // I’m ating a cute and nice dude. / Who you still can’t draw properly, I reckon. // I’M SURE YOU’LL [Nixu] FIND SOME ART COMMUNITY TO JOIN SO THAT YOU WON’T BECOME A TOTAL RECLUSE. MÄÄ USKON SUHUN! (I couldn’t think of any more good things in my life)

(State:) I’m tired of trying. Help me out! / (Anarchist activity – Theatre – Social life:) Nixuuu, Nixu… Come out and play! / (Floating on a cloud of isolation:) Did I hear something? Nah, I think I’ll just watch one more Vine compilation video in the middle of night. / Dänkinhuuto

Sup barkeep! I’m back home after three months! / Oh, I didn’t notice you were gone. / – / OULU COMICS FESTIVAL

Oulu Main Library: / The right-wing populist cryptofascist party has blown big money to reserve the large auditorium for their meeting, right at the same time as the comic festival opening ceremony. / Christ. // You could tell from miles away who had come for the comic and who hadn’t. / (Just by the confused and offended look on their faces. Making fun of people’s clothes and appearance is not cool or punk rock. // In the ”101 Comics From Finland” exhibition opening I was pretty and quenched. / OPEN IN OULU MUSEUM OF ARTS UNTIL JAN 7TH 2018!

On Saturday I interviewed H-P Lehkonen. / What advice wouldst thou give to cishet authors writing LGBTQ characters? / I recommend you get yourself a sensitivity reader! / For my new comic ”Life Outside The Circle” I got help writing and designing the Finnish-Turkish main character from a person I know who’s also Finnish-Turkish.

Hetkinen… / Love wipes evil out of me! / In Tukikohta: Independence Day blah bluh blah blah.

Do you agree to the terms and conditions of this rental contract? / (Work space. 62,50€ per month. Deposit: 145€.) / No. No. No! It’s too expensive! No!! / Yes. // You can’t afford to keep it up for twelve whole months! Käänny takas! Käänny takaaaaaaas!!! / Bye now! / (”Bye” but in Tampere dialect which I loathe and despise) //

Well! Now that I have to pay myself sick for the work space I think I might just actually go and work there every once in a while. / But I still gotta wait another full week before the Hyhky basement locker will start paying herself back, because… // OULU COMIC FESTIVAL is here again! As am I! Hi Oulu! I missed you <3 / (”I missed you too. Will you come and hug me?” but in Oulu dialect which I love and adore) / No. / Ok.
