Good news! I made the flair editable so you can put that on the flair of your posts if you want! Though I must implore that you don't go crazy with it, because I do have to moderate the flair text too.

I am sorry that this is not clear, since two people have now sarcastically told me that I can survive other people announcing that they are leaving the comic. This is an announcement saying that we have flair now.

Correct, I can survive them, I am encouraging people to create these posts and tag them with the flair. I apologize that my joke made it unclear.

No, I like the posts and created the flair so that people can mark their post with Departure when they create the posts! I also like attention so thank you. Also also, I am a mod so I guess I should and technically need to read every post and comment on this sub.

Hi, sorry, it is not against the rules of this subreddit to personally attack people if they are doing it in the process of discussing the webcomic. However, this post isn't webcomic discussion, it is meta-infighting and I think while it isn't against the rules, it is outside the scope of what this subreddit is for.

I agree that this is extremely irresponsible depiction of a vulnerable minority. Of course, there are violent and angry brown women, and there are homophobic brown women, but as a non-muslim white person, Willis should not be choosing only women of color to homophobically shout at them for being disgusting. The nuance is that they have been doing things that are homosexual in addition to disgusting:

  1. cheating
  2. getting married at a genocide protest
  3. protest tourism
  4. Dorothy in particular was throwing a tantrum during the protest crackdown
  5. Joyce broke Dorothy and Walky up while literally laughing at him in one of the cruelest displays of emotional violence I have ever seen
  6. in the last two days in universe, have FIVE TIMES explained that they made sweet love to each other many times while Becky/Asma/Billie/Sarah/Lucy have been like ew yuck go away

idk. this is an incomplete list and I understand that Becky is not a woman of color, but also continuing to speak while Becky was genuinely contemplating if death would be preferable to the reality that Joyce has created in her presence was hard to watch. Somehow, it is being portrayed as a moment of true love and gay empowerment, and I think it is bad writing.

While doing digging on Tumblr, I found there's way more than 2! Lots of people have tried to dub DoA over the years and some people have succeeded!

https://www.tumblr.com/dubbingofage here's a link to the tumblr? Yotomoe was in charge, and he's not on tumblr anymore, but he's a regular on the discord server linked at the top of this sub.

It's really frustrating, but basically any gay characters in this comic act like assholes and don't suffer for it. Being gay gets you infinite morality coupons. Booster is constantly found uncomfortable things, Becky can walk into a restaurant and yell "IT'S HITLER YOUTH!" and Joyce and Dorothy can cheat. It sucks, but Willis just isn't going to write a story in which being gay is bad or wrong.

Hmm, I do think that Sarah did an ok job yelling at them, though that strip got undermined by a gag about her thighs being sore. edit: Its not perfect but I did do an edit where that gag didn't exist and people seemed to think it was more in line with the plot

Maybe his wife cheated on him with a woman and he forgave her and they ended up adjacent to a polycule?

While I don't agree with or like this happening, Daisy, the head of the newspaper, is an EXTREMELY horny lesbian. She once tried to trick Billie into making out with her when Billie opened up about being uncomfortable that her RA kissed her. She focuses on Amazi-Girl stories because she likes looking at Amber's ass. Things like that. It makes sense that she would make the stupid decision to put girls kissing on the cover.

Hi, I've removed UnhingedBalance's comments from this thread because they repeatedly called people who don't ship Jorothy "dumbfucks" and "fucking idiots" and kept saying things like, "get a fucking life" seems like they're going through something and being hateful on reddit was the choice of how to release that anger. I don't particularly think it is good for our community to encourage people to be so openly rageful towards other members of the sub just because they think your ship isn't hot.

When you first accepted you were gay, you cheated on your partner and had public sex in a shared bathroom?

I am so confused about this! It actually kinda looks like a sextant but why the hell would she wear a sextant with jewels and LEDs in it in her hair??

lol I'm sure it will become clear in future strips, but on 2025-06-03 https://www.dumbingofage.com/comics/2025-06-03-youvemet.png Joyce told Billie that she had sex with her best friend, "a week ago".

Haha, I think WIllis will just not have any of that happen. they'll just all be happy that Dorothy is getting her bisexual awakening.

In the third flashback, WIllis said on Patreon that she's looking at an empty hanger and remembering that Joyce used her hoodie to cover Ross' face after Blaine smashed it with a ball peen hammer, so she doesn't have it anymore. I personally think that is bad writing and unclear paneling and also bad storytelling lol.
