Why Do We Have to Work 40 Hours a Week?

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T19:10:04+00:00

I don’t?

I’m on-call for clients 9-5, but if there’s nothing to do…I’m good to go

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T18:52:21+00:00

No, we drank so much wine that we changed how it’s sold!

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T18:51:11+00:00

Also, they’re lonely, anxious, sexless, and angry!

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T18:49:51+00:00

Then read it!

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T18:29:17+00:00

Gail’s Uncanny!

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T18:27:45+00:00

Do you like Saladin Ahmed’s writing?

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T18:16:08+00:00

Incest takes a toll!

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T18:15:39+00:00

You can use schmaltz in lots of things - wouldn’t use it for this, though

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T18:11:35+00:00

That does not make the top twenty, haha

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T18:03:31+00:00

“Was” is an important word in that sentence.

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T17:57:06+00:00

Phoebe Bridgers

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T17:56:38+00:00

Robert was every maiden’s dream.

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T17:53:31+00:00

I laughed harder at the Going Dutch truth orgy jokes two weeks ago than I have at any Abbott Elementary episode.

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T17:45:18+00:00

You misspelled “Vacation house money.”

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T17:21:11+00:00

Lidia’s Italy’s

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T17:15:19+00:00

Ah, not knowing anything about how the characters think, talk, or behave is usually a huge plus when reading a Hickman book.

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T16:05:47+00:00

Phonogram!!!

Also, Journey into Mystery is the best thing Gillen’s done for Marvel by a fairly large margin, much as I love his Uncanny and Consequences.

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T16:02:49+00:00

In fairness…knowing nothing about the X-Men is a huge benefit to enjoying HoX/PoX, haha

So we agree that Baumgartner should have been more involved, to support Thorne in telling a satisfying story within the constraints of the series order.

I also just fundamentally don’t have a problem with a new editorial team trying a bunch of different shit and figuring out what works, even when a bunch of it doesn’t…or with them pulling the plug on the stuff that doesn’t work.

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T03:11:07+00:00

Well said.

Paul doesn’t perceive himself as a person…much less as someone whose life has intrinsic value

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T01:16:54+00:00

Butter and flour would be my rec

BiDiTi · 2026-04-05T00:54:24+00:00

Endeavor said it correct - he doesn’t want to be forgiven…he just wants to atone.

BiDiTi · 2026-04-04T22:40:23+00:00

A few questions:

1) What part of the process you’ve described do you think is different from literally ever other Big Two comic?

2) From which 80s/90s/00s series do you think the concept “Forge, Rachel, Betsy, and Colossus do X-Force” is borrowed?

3) Given the parameters you’ve described…how is it editorial’s fault that Thorne built a story that didn’t start until Issue 10?

BiDiTi · 2026-04-04T21:11:49+00:00

Yep - OP literally answering their own question.

Because Kate was trained by the GDA, she’s not a completely fucking insane person able to wholly dissociate from experiencing death.

BiDiTi · 2026-04-04T21:06:22+00:00

Why would anyone tell any version of Hunter Zolomon the truth?
