Editorial Reviews

"It’s a relentless diary comic with a casual style. It should be corny (he loves his partner), but it’s sincere. It should be depressing (friends die, elections, Covid), but it’s optimistic. It should be full of anxiety (moving from Austin to San Francisco, health issues, theft), but it maintains an optimism that is genuine. Reading this book is like hanging out with a friend you feel lucky to have." – Shannon Wheeler (Cartoonist, New Yorker Magazine and Too Much Coffee Man)

“Ben Snakepit's comics are genuine, true, informative, slightly stinky, hilarious, and punk as hell.” – Jim Mahfood Grrl Scouts, Tank Girl
