Comiplant des Tages

What do you complain about the most?

I’m struggling with this prompt as I’m not much of a day-to-day complainer. These prompts have been rather weak lately and who’s to complain.

If the dishes aren’t done I just do the dishes. If it’s raining, I just run in the rain. Here I am sitting in a hotel room in Seattle this morning and already my charger started smoking and there’s no food for me to eat at breakfast. Maybe I should go down to the front desk and ask them to put some plant-based food at the breakfast bar. I am not in the mood to complain this morning.

With major things happening in this world

They are always there. He is always there. This current administration and the people that back it, have been a constant source of complaining. But I don’t even know where to complain to. I live within my own echo chamber. Nobody convinces anybody of anything on social media. I’ve called my local congresswoman repeatedly.. She voted to fund ICE and I’m livid. Where does anxiety stop, when does complaining stop and where does this all turn into action?

Most of my complaints are about myself

And it is sort of frustrating. I complain that I’m working on eight different projects at the same time.. I complain. I haven’t cleaned my art room. The other day I had a crappy morning run. I complained to myself and ran a quality one that evening. Who in their right mind runs twice a day.?

I’m struggling with this prompt, I’m struggling with the internet in my hotel room and who’s to complain. I really should be down downstairs complaining this damn Hotel chooses to give rooms to ICE.

    Thank you for sharing such an honest and grounded take on the prompt. What stands out most is your self‑awareness—how you shift from light, everyday “complaints” like chores and a bad hotel breakfast to the very real frustration about national issues that weigh on you. That kind of openness doesn’t shy away from the complexity of modern life, and it feels deeply human.

    It’s true. Complaining itself doesn’t help, but sometimes it’s all we can do to assure ourselves and one another we’re still sane in the midst of so much gaslighting and ensh*ttification.

I would love to hear you opinion as well

His friends observe Mark seems wired a little differently. Perhaps it’s more likely that noticing little things often missed by others is a relic of a quieter, simpler time. He has a way with words, which he refuses to let be hindered by sub-par typing skills. People have great stories to tell if you sit and listen.

A belief dear to Mark is that there is certain beauty in the world. You simply have to look for it.
