I need your support simply by proofreading my web-comic and translating it into decent english.

Thank you in advance for your response,

If you can copy/paste all the text sections in here I can give it a try...

of course:
01. Stenography
stenography is a writing method that can be learnt at university by transcribing the whole stuff your professor wrote on the blackboard during years of study
I am speaking here from my own experience. the only person, who is able to read my own handwriting is myself
What the heck is this
today I'm an assembly line labourer
It has been worthwhile...
2. Depression
THE WORLD IS MEAN AND VICIOUS
AFTER WORK I NEED A HANDFUL OF PAIN-KILLERS JUST to relax my ACHING body
...Even though I lift a dozen tons a day , I'm still skinny not able to gain muscle...
the main reason for my bad condition should be laziness and poor diet consisting of carbs instead of proteins
I can't afford to buy high quality products
my wallet is full of paper waste and small cash
on top of this nobody is interested in ... my artistic creation ...
mew
Ach! Who cares?

A bit busy today with other projects, but I'll have a go soon!

3. Mandela effect
I was on the way home at night
I simply stopped because I have had to empty my bladder as suddenlyâ€¦
I threw a coin insideâ€¦
If the ground doesn't exist, I could jump in
â€¦ but I heard nothing
So I did without hesitation
I was falling and falling until a light at the end appeared
I felt like thrown upwards losing all the speed
Next morning
contrary to appearances it turned out, that I've got into a parallel universe

Hi Kira,

I like the surreal tone of the last page.

IMO you should leave a gap between each upper and lower panel. Currently, it's not easy to spot which text refers to which panel.

Here's my proof reading:

3. Mandela effect
I was on my way home at night
I stopped because I had to empty my bladder, when suddenlyâ€¦
I threw a coin insideâ€¦
If the ground doesn't exist, I could jump in
â€¦ but I heard nothing
So I did without hesitation
I was falling and falling until a light at the end appeared
I felt like I had been thrown upwards, losing all speed
Next morning
Contrary to appearances it turned out, that I've ended up in a parallel universe

(I had to change that last line a lot, because it just didn't make any sense to me.)
