To me, this feels more realistic than my previous comic strips

This was also my experience. I was working at K-Mart and was making nowhere near $70k but took my hour lunch at various restaurants in the area and went out to the movies and concerts on the regular. It was tough but I never felt squeezed like my nieces and nephews are reporting now.

A Pint of Old Whore “Pint of Old Whore” Might be things I like more But by now I know what in life is and ain’t for A man like me Take time t'see Stepped back for years and observed the whole scene Tried to kill my ego, before it killed me Pulled out the game, I was all out at sea Now I roll with the punches; they’re all part of life Wanna have a good time, you gotta pay the price You find peace in solitude, but that’s about it Modern life is torture and it ain’t about shit Modern life is beautiful if you know how to look Wisin’ up is realisin’ you don’t need the book To cook, to fly, just try ‘fore you die And try not to let ya best years pass ya by Sunny Meadow Copyright ©️ Richard Bennett 2026

Entry 1 pt:1 I have a Tiktok rant account. It’s mateothe1epelfan btw. Last month I was in class and pulled out my phone to check my notifications and I saw notification from Tiktok saying I got a new follower. Upon opening the notification I saw my mom’s profile. I’m not joking when I say I audibly gasped. I stared Dan dead in the eyes and said,“Holy shit, my mom found my account…"This was then followed a mini panic from me, Dan and my other friend Micheal. Dan managed to calm me down to some extent. When I got home I went straight to my bedroom. I couldn’t bear to see my mother who unfortunately for me was sitting in the living room when I walked in. I laid in bed, hoping she had forgotten. Then I heard my name getting called from downstairs. I oh so cautiously walked down the stairs and my mom hit me with,"Notice anything different?"When I said no, she pointed out that she had taken down the Christmas tree because we’re planning on moving. I just said ok and went to walk to the bathroom. When I said that out loud she said my dad was in there and then had the audacity to say,"So, I found this account…"I genuinely slid down the wall in ANGUISH. My head in my hands and everything. She kept asking questions and eventually I just asked if she was mad and she said no, but she was just "Confused” as to why I would want this. I quickly rushed to the bathroom the moment my dad got out. And when I got out she said and I kid you not,“I don’t blame you. Vaginas are disgusting."And THEN she proceeded to go on a tangent about how "gross” they are as if she does not have one.

Kochi and the Changing Psychology of Urban Life Kochi is rapidly becoming one of the most psychologically complex urban spaces in Kerala. The city represents growth, ambition, technology, modern work culture, lifestyle changes, and increasing social visibility. At the same time, many people living in Kochi are also experiencing rising levels of stress, emotional exhaustion, anxiety, sleep disturbances, burnout, relationship strain, and nervous system fatigue. This is especially visible among IT professionals, entrepreneurs, healthcare workers, students, and young adults navigating the demands of modern urban life. Conversations around mental health in Kochi, stress management, psychotherapy, emotional wellbeing, and neuroscience-based wellness are therefore becoming increasingly important in today’s society.

The Normalization of Exhaustion I don’t like speaking badly about this country. Or any country, really. All countries are beautiful in their own way, with the good and the bad. No place is perfect. Some simply feel more like home to certain souls than others. And this country once represented something extraordinary to the world. Freedom. Opportunity. Resilience. The idea that people could arrive here searching for a better life and actually build one. And there is still enormous beauty here. Mountains that leave you speechless. Rivers that look painted by hand. Forests, deserts, lakes, little towns, hiking trails, endless roads facing the ocean at sunrise. This country is so vast that many people spend their entire lives without ever truly seeing it. Some never leave the state where they were born. Some work so hard for so many years that they never really have the time, energy, or financial freedom to explore the beauty surrounding them. And maybe that is part of the sadness too. So much land. So much possibility. So much beauty. And yet so many people trapped inside survival mode long enough to barely experience it. Because lately, it has become very hard not to notice how deeply exhausted everyone seems. Not just tired. Exhausted. Physically. Emotionally. Financially. Spiritually. And the saddest part is how normal it has all become. Like if normalizing it somehow makes it acceptable. People rushing everywhere. Working constantly. Eating whatever is fast because nobody has time anymore. Living under permanent stress while pretending this is simply adulthood. Or maybe that is just what we were trained to accept. And now the consequences are everywhere. The illnesses. The anxiety. The exhaustion. The endless pressure to produce. The dependence on medications. The way people choose professions simply to survive instead of because they truly love them. The way rest almost feels illegal unless it is “earned.” And then there are the things many people outside this country find unbelievable. Children practicing active shooter drills at school. People terrified of getting sick because of medical costs. Elderly people still working because retirement is no longer enough. Human beings reduced to productivity statistics while politicians argue endlessly about everything except the actual emotional and physical wellbeing of the population. And yes, I compare. Because when you travel, you notice things. You notice countries where healthcare is treated more like a human right than a luxury. Places where people sit outside talking calmly for hours. Eating slower. Walking more. Living with less noise inside them. And suddenly you begin wondering: When did exhaustion become our normal state of being? When did survival become more important than living? That is the part people rarely say out loud. Not because they do not feel it. I am sure many do. But because once you truly acknowledge how unhealthy a way of life has become, it becomes impossible to completely unsee it. And maybe that is the real heartbreak underneath all of this: something profoundly human has been lost underneath the speed, greed, exhaustion, violence, fear, and normalization of survival. Not only here. Everywhere in different ways. But for a country once admired around the world as the dream, the shift feels especially painful to witness. Because this is still a beautiful place. And that is exactly why watching so many people slowly lose themselves inside a way of living that no longer feels fully human can feel heartbreaking.
