Welcome to Saturday Morning Cartoons, a segment where three artists take turns delighting you with their whimsy, facts and punchlines on Saturday mornings! Our three esteemed cartoon critters are Cameron Glavin, Anna Bongiovanni, and Megan Prazenica. Today’s cartoon is by Megan!
Megan Prazenica is an animator/artist from Pittsburgh, PA. She now lives LA and life has been interesting ever since. When Megan isn't making art comics, or video games, she can be found wrecking havoc on the ultimate frisbee field as her alter-ego, "Bacon." Catch up with her on her website, her tumblr or tweet @MeganPraz.
Megan has written 42 articles for us.
Yeah, I totally wasn’t studying right now and got distracted. Nope. Not me. I’m not here. I’m studying.
Oh that last part cracked me up, specially the, “endorsed by B-List celebrities.” Who is L.A./SoCal area can honestly say they haven’t done that? Does going to Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffle house count? Cause more than a few occasions B-list rappers have mentioned it, or does it have to be more obscure, like a vegan restaurant a celeb was once spotted at?
thaaaat is exactly why I don’t let most apps show me notifications. I mean, I still procrastinate like a fiend, but it’d be even worse (is that possible?) if I had to deal with that too.
This is why Facebook doesn’t exist on my phone.
THAT TOO! ‘cept i’m bad and look at it in my phone’s browser. it’s a lot more of a pain in the ass that way, though, so i spend less time than i probably would otherwise.
I can’t even have it on my browser. I keep it logged off and I use LastPass to hold onto the password so it’s too much of a pain to access.
that’s a good idea. I’m ridiculous on my phone. I find myself opening my gmail app when I’m sitting on my computer with gmail on the screen in front of me. I need an app to keep me from opening apps or something.
this is the story of my life
Yet somehow you get *SO MUCH* done!
I am fighting this very thing right now.
Too. True.
This exact thing happened to me two days ago. I was merrily working on my latest project, a TV script (about space lesbians and dragons), but then of course I went to check one thing on Feedly and I fell down the rabbithole of notifications and links again. Including getting lost on Autostraddle for a while. And then I started texting a cute girl. And then I had two pages and a half after ~3 hours of writing and I still haven’t decided on a name for the dragon.
So so true, eugh!
But you know what stops me doing this? Listening to Grimes! Seriously that music has magic powers over me where I get all focused on my work and don’t even think about the internet.
Mostly.
I probably should also remove that tantalising ‘Autostraddle’ link from my bookmarks bar….
This is why I deleted all the clicky games from my phone and turned off all push notifications but FB messenger (which some of my friends use instead of texts)
