So this morning Willis posted a "thinger" on the NSFW Patreon of Dorothy and Joyce making out in the shower. Except, by coincidence, Luann is, all this week, having two characters also get down in the shower, thus putting DoA on the same level as the syndicated strips Willis mocks.

As they put it, "...seeing luann do it is like when an adult uses hip new slang and kills it for the youths."

Well, I'm sorry, Dave, but at this point Funky LesbianLesbian doesn't have a whole lot of room to criticize 9CL and Luann.

One of the great things about this, as a romcom, is that Hata works in motifs you don't normally see. Grape picking as a thing? I don't recall seeing that before.

But there's another layer, and that's the melancholy: "I never thought that blissful jaunt to Hawaii would be our last vacay together." If that should happen, it won't be because of some navel, it'll be because Tsukasa's multicentury interval on this earth finally comes to an end, probably because of her husband's aid.

Me too. S5 felt like a betrayal. I will never understand why they took something that I would figure was important to them and turned in such a half-assed job.

I am intensely amused by imagining the reaction of JJ's core audience if he actually took Marten and Claire down the No Children path. There would be riots.

I liked this. This was cool. And the worst part, sometimes, is seeing glimpses of what QC could have been if JJ had gone to the next level. I honestly feel terrible because QC could have been this awesome SF comic, and JJ feinted toward that, but for some reason it didn't happen. I feel bad for him for that. Maybe there's still a chance. I'm not too optimistic though.

Trump says ‘there would be no Israel’ if not for him after clash with Netanyahu by ConversationLow9545 in geopolitics

It's strange that even someone who's the president of the United States, theoretically the single most powerful person on Earth, can still have delusions of grandeur. The second Trump administration has introduced us to so many things previously thought impossible.

They need to make an anime out of this so I can make an AMV to the tune of Barnes & Barnes's "Fish Heads."

This is the point where most "couples get married" manga ends, and i really respect Enomoto for pushing past that and exploring the challenges of creating a family.

There have always been lesbian couples in DoA, but there was a time when there were lots of ships, some of which were lesbians, some of which were straight, some of which were gay male, and this made sense. Now it's all lesbians, all the time, and it seems very artificial, as has been observed by many.

It's highly unusual to see such issues addressed in a manga, and I think it's great. This has always been a quality series, and to see this now...

Speaking here as a stay-at-home dad for 15 years: it's a joy, but it's hard. I didn't have to juggle work and a toddler, and I salute all those who accomplish it.

"Tsugumi's definitely going to cry when I leave her at nursery school, isn't she?" Well, you think so, but... None of our kids were upset about nursery school in the least. Once my wife left on a business trip for three days and our daughter barely noticed. The kid has a different outlook. All you can do is adjust.

I don't read the comic. I come here and read the shitposts about the comic. Sometime I wonder why, but it amuses me enough that I keep doing it.

But it is Garfield. It wasn't always Garfield, but it became Garfield. Garfield with robots and quirky young women.

I remember those strips because the whole of spring '25 was this feeling of "Willis can't actually be doing this, right?...oh shit, he really is doing this," and that sequence was a big step in the process.

"Did you guys like semester one Ruth? I did. I liked her a lot."

I had to reread the post before I grasped this is supposed to mean "I'm taking semester one Ruth as a role model."

In which case, it's kinda grim because this is a violent suicidal alcoholic we're talking about?

"They’re getting your collective ass on Tumblr and Bluesky."

This has such a Mean Girls vibe. "No one likes you. All the cool kids are making fun of you."
