                Speaking of “quantum” (besides what’s become of the adjective in common usage), what’s your occupation?

                I’m guessing that it’s at least somewhat physics-related, but I could be wrong.

      I mean the mind game aspect is just a manipulation from Lucy to get Walky to dress nice anyway. There’s no saying whether Joyce would care either way.

        Yes, I probably should have put “the plan” in airquotes. Lucy’s plan has gone off without a hitch, but Walky has failed to realize the game being played.

    So in this universe, we have Walky trying and failing miserably to throw off Joyce’s presentation of a comic where thinly-veiled versions of herself and Dorothy have oodles of subtext

    While in the other universe, we have Dorothy (posessed, but still) trying to throw off Joyce and Walky’s wedding with an army of crack pairing fankids (plus a couple of canon ones)

    The dissonance is hysterical, and I love it.

            Yahweh *officially* became all-powerful (or an “everything god”, as you describe him), only after the Babylonian captivity, for the sole purpose of the military leaders of the Kingdom of Israel saving face.

            Specifically, these absolutist rulers rationalized that Yahweh was all-powerful and controlled all their enemies including the Babylonians (“stiffened their hearts”) to overpower their kingdom as punishment for breaking their covenant.

                More on this, I’m kinda disappointed in Jurassic World for exactly that reason. I mean, I get that there likely isn’t good reception, and it’s a trope and all that, but I feel like the security forces what got ate and stomped by the indominous wouldn’t have _all_ just gone to static. Like, we should have been left with some active Blair Witch or Cam style cams still broadcasting, possibly (see aforementioned signal strength) from inside her Indomitable self. And yes it would be horrible, and it was tragic, but I’m utterly unconvinced that things are always *dead* before they’re swallowed. Especially not bite size morsels like lawyers and guards. Like, yeah, they’re not gonna survive, but death is often pretty messy and can take a little bit.

      “I’m Thrown Off My Rhythm” is better though.

              He’s not big, but he’s sure seems dumb enough to not see his wife’s bigotry. So… yeah? Like maybe his version of the “check what I can do” shoulder angel/devil argument is Linda’s blow jobs or something.

              Also, what the hell were Christian angels and devils doing on Kronks shoulders? Surely there was _some_ kind of Incan spirit types that should have stepped in?

    Poor Walky! Still, you can’t blame him for his confusion. I mean, Joyce is the one you’d least expect to spontaneously rebel, isn’t she?

    Walky had the opportunity for his JAWsome moment in Panel 2. Looks like he will regret not taking it.

    OTOH maybe Liz will make Joyce forget everything about the comic strip job.

    Walky: “I’m gonna wear nicer clothes; Joyce won’t know what hit her!”
    Joyce: “I am not going to class today, bye!”
    Walky: “….WHAT!?”

Happy Nonbinary People's Day, you gemstones. A year or two back we introduced FLASH GORDON's first enby, the outlaw lawman Bones Malock. Having known and loved a lot of nonbinary people, I knew the truest way to represent you was as a unsettling desert pirate with a lightning sword
Flash Gordon's Bones Malock:
Bones Malock, under captions reading:
Bones Malock and Flash Gordon.

Flash: Okay... wait thirty seconds, then give me a distraction.

Bones: Got just the thing.

Flash: Do NOT blow the place up.

Bones: You're the boss.

Okay, everyone's jumping to conclusions, but Joyce was hit with a mysterious pink gas in Thursday's strip. Now, in recent years, the police are known to increasingly use military grade weapons. Which reminded me of this bit of proposed technology from the 1990s: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_bomb

hey, kid, what do you want to play with from the cool superhero movie? is it a nude, melting senator who feels like a stretch armstrong doll that has been left out in the son and maybe mildly chewed by a neighborhood dog? WELL, SON, YOU'RE IN LUCK!
the most upsetting toy of all time: a small and horrible statue of melting, nude Senator Kelly from the first x-men film

OK, I said I was going to a thread of receipts together on the guy who runs Kapow, in odder to explain why I personally would recommend not giving him your business at TFN. Starting with the original post, revealing the guy loves sharing right wing fascist stuff on LinkedIn.

Since you might think it's weird you got a like on this over a year after the fact, the director of Kapow just shared this on LinkedIn; i.imgur.com/hqQYWgO.png
