Transcript

The image is of a four panel comic.

The title reads “Poltergeist”.

In the first panel we see a woman with a worried expression on her face. She says, “stuff keeps moving around my house.”

In the second panel the same woman says “I’m terrified. I can’t sleep.”

In the third panel we see a ghost holding a candle and a pillow that reads “live laugh love”. The ghost is zooming through the house.

In the fourth panel we see the same ghost hanging up a frame and thinking, “home decor is my passion”.

Well at least the ghost has a hobby, rather then terrorizing the inhabitants of the house.

I don't think moving stuff around really equates to home decor, ghost. If you just move shit around all the time, then how can you say that you're going for any specific decor?

I've only known one person who constantly moved things around her house like that, and she had dementia. Hmm... I wonder if you have dementia and die, would your ghost have dementia?

I don't think moving stuff around really equates to home decor, ghost.

It reminded me of one specific thing where it kinda is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feng_shui

Regarding its adoption within contemporary Western societies, one scholar writes that "feng shui tends to be reduced to interior design for health and wealth. It has become increasingly visible through 'feng shui consultants' and corporate architects who charge large sums of money for their analysis, advice and design."

He's got about as much chill as I do.

I do too, but I also feel like it would incite bad actors to crop it even more.

The more effective thing would probably be to put the author's name between the panels instead of along an outer edge.

I feel like that’s aimed at a certain someones who call signatures “advertising”
