There is a condition affecting cartoonists at truly alarming rates that the medical establishment has chosen to ignore. It’s called Tree-Deficiency.

Cartoonists can go weeks — months — without meaningful contact with an actual tree. We know this because we are cartoonists, and we have done the research, which is to say we looked at our calendars and felt bad.

Our Patreon’s Tree Hugger™️ level exists to fix this.

You can directly fund our prescription: one tree hug per month, per artist, documented and delivered to you as photographic proof. Real bark. Real arms. Real awkward human-tree contact, captured for your peace of mind.

You also get secret comics, downloads, and all the lower-tier goodies — but honestly, the tree documentation is the thing. Trees appear in roughly 46% of our panels and they deserve acknowledgment. So do you, for making sure two people who spend most of their lives in a screen-lit room occasionally go outside and touch something that has been alive for a hundred years.

It’s medicine. The tree is the cure. You’re the doctor.
