As Walt Whitman said, we all certainly "contain multitudes." Truly, we are many things at once. It can be challenging, and likely impossible, to track at all times all of it.

Again and again, these messages spurred collective online processing of a range of challenges and lows and bright spots of living through the pandemic. This series of cartoons is intended to reflect on and illustrate some of the process of dealing with life by leaning into the intersection of technology and community. |
