Hi Clorinspats! I took a look at your zine, you should consider adding "comic" as one of your tags so that it's even easier to find.
I know exactly what you're describing. It didn't feel like a rant at all, at least not the soapbox kind of rant we usually envision. What you presented seemed more like a release or an epiphany and I don't always see ideas presented that way. It's effective.
I won't go into my own experience but this RESONATED so well. And I love that you took the time to speak about it in your own way.
