a-real-archaeopteryx:

so maybe this is only important to me, but about a month ago we had a pretty ‘typical’ suicide patient in my ER. she was 19. we gave her charcoal and made her throw up and gave her lots of fluids and she was able to leave our ER to get better help that next morning. but once she was awake, i went into her room and held her hand while she cried. i pulled her hair back while she threw up and rubbed her back because no one was there with her.

Last night, she walked back into...

WEST PORTAL!

Kieron Dwyer – who seemingly as an act of charity and or pity drew my first graphic novel, LAST OF THE INDEPENDENTS – and Todd Rinker are putting their new project WEST PORTAL on Kickstarter.
