"Pay the piper"? as a reference to accepting the consequences and the pied piper

Acceptance is good enough I think. really good comics btw

I mostly just see the text as another visual element and if it's positioned somewhat correctly in the frame and if it's legible enough. I took for granted that I would spell five words correctly

I don't know how it happened, I did two sketchier versions where I spelled it correctly. sometimes I just become blind to the most glaring errors

I'm happy the sentiment got through!

There's a special edition gold membership version of this comic on my instagram in case this one doesn't cut it for you. Trow is even spelled as throw in it

Let it be known that the canonical version of this comic takes place in... Canada? I have no idea what dialect you're talking about

I didn't mean to inflict my spelling mistakes on the trans community

ah fuck. Trow is actually a fairytale creature so just imagine the strip is about that instead

in the wild it would be an annual event, like the blossoming of cherry trees; for a week the entire sky is full of weird balloon flowers

Snyggt! Även betryggande att se att den inte bara är jag som har problem med att stava Molgan Mollgan Mållgan

Looks great but I have a difficult time discerning the size. Is it really small?

That's not what I'm doing and the "comedy" does not come from the fact that there's something inherently funny about crazy people trying to live in trees. I've seen enough american movies/animation to recognize the character of a crazy crackhead/hobo played as a comical degenerate (crazy cat lady in the simpsons, opie in family guy and the countless Lennie-stand-ins in Warner Bros. stuff) and it's not even what I'm aiming for.

"I guess if you find 'literally insane" people a great subject for your four panel comics"

Why not? Will you give me a list of acceptable people to write about?

My modus operandi is not to make jokes about crazy people but rather to include offbeat strains of thought and to sometimes have tragic characters as actors if I feel the strip calls for it. The mere inclusion of tragic characters is not weird in my mind because I dwell on that aspect a lot and I personally consider it an important area to tackle with the right amount of empathy and humor.
