        I honestly had no idea this character was a thing. Had to archive dive to understand the context.

        Also… has he always been named that, or was that retconned into the tags at some point?

            … Ah! So Joyce is texting AG to deck him again, then? (My first thought was Carla, she’d surely step in and prevent this dude from besmirching the coolness of roller skates)

            Willis is pretty good about that.  He did that with the original Josh tags as well.
            In fact, when Jocelyne gave Ethan the JocelyneJBrown.com website address in this strip, Willis had already registered the site and set it up so that it directed to DumbingofAge.com.

              Very wise. Never post an unestablished top level domain on the Internet unless you already own it. Because if you don’t, someone else will buy it out from under you and who knows what they’re going to do with it. (Or what will happen to it when it comes up for renewal.)

        “he had a gun and body armour and we were scared” is a pretty good argument to get off light or even free
        college isn’t likely to go further than the legal system on the twin bases of not wanting to get sued and not caring more than they legally have to

          Plus, it’s not like they’d know much, and Blaine was dead; any value as informants was lost with him. So they’re on the hook for multiple kidnappings, assaults, and battery for what, a dozen counts? With an almost certain batch of restraining orders from some of the victims against them even when a corrupt, incompetent judge goes easy for them being “promising young men with their lives ahead of them”?

          School isn’t going to risk being sued over letting a bunch of violent felons come near their victims. The admins are always corrupt and useless, but not so stupid as to basically intentionally lose those lawsuits.

      Nope, Amazi-Girl did, Blain just gave then a bankroll. Can’t buy a costume without a budget. Of course Amber didn’t buy, she made. Which puts her a whole flight of steps ahead of douchebro.

        Just saying I kinda doubt Blaine paid these guys. Not to undercut that maybe Amazi-Girl escalated things by being a costumed vigilante which appropriately mirrors the same Batman argument (did he create his villains??) that her character homages, but it just seems really at odds with Blaine’s entire character and motivation in life to pay a bunch of goons. He was kidnapping kids in part because he wanted to save money and somehow that helped.

      Fraid so. In fact, tags indicate he was one of Blaine’s recruits for the big kidnapping. Seems he developed a taste for masks.

      And, maybe, his own blood and teeth?

          That’s not Sarah, that’s the newest campus vigilante – Bat Girl. Not to be confused with the one from DC. This one gets her name from the baseball bat she beats assholes with. The fact that she and Sarah have never been seen in the same room is a coincidence.

    There are some people who do the irl “supervillain” thing to help call attention to actually worthy causes, like a heel version of the rl superhero movement.

    I suspect the Incelerator is not one of these individuals. Just a hunch.

      Perhaps his brush with villainy actually caused him to reflect on his misdeeds and change his ways? Maybe he’s not calling out females with too many skills to chastise them or bring any sort of ill will, but instead to highlight their talents as sadly lots of women are still overshadowed despite or even because they have a robust suite of skill sets and qualifications. Maybe just maybe Incelerator is the hero we need to platform exceptional women?

      Carla is, of course, multi-skilled, and can build machines to annoy the world’s worst people with pies, her name in lights, or whatever else would cause them the most distress. So she’s going to win on skating prowess, number of skills, and ability to deploy both of the former with surgical accuracy. This dude is going to whine so hard, he’ll pop out of existence and I love that for all of us.

            I don’t think that’s true. Per the regulations, they don’t “apply to any public institution of undergraduate higher education which traditionally and continually from its establishment has had a policy of admitting only students of one sex.” So Bryn Mawr is safe.

    Options for who Joyce could be texting:
    AmaziGirl – Retired, but beating this sort of dude up is very much her deal
    Carla – Skates in the dorms are HER THING, she deserves a chance to defend her niche
    Malaya – Has combat experience while on skates, would lead to her undercutting him hilariously in debates
    Dina – Can attack from the sides when he’s not looking
    Jennifer – this guy is less important than finding out why Dorothy has a pic of her boobs

    But him being sincere about it is also funny, and deserving of an Amazigirl appearance for sure.

      Themz a known TERF recruitment target you see in places like 4chan and Twitter

      the discrepancy to be aware of is that Willis will most likely present these strategies as in-person actors for the sake of working best in a gag-a-day webcomic format, where IRL modern reactionary movements are primarily internet-based.

      It’s her editor who wants to hit on AG.
      If Jennifer wanted to do it, you’d think, or at least hope, she’d notice her crush’s hair, skin, and body type.
      Well, there are plenty of people who don’t care about looks, so might not notice them, but Jennifer is definitely not one of those people.

        He’s got a logo, a nice gradient on the shoulders that form a speedometer and matching skates. If dude made this costume himself he may have some talents of his own he’s wasting under the weight of toxic masculinity. Or maybe he just knows a good tailor or cosplayer. Or maybe there’s a very specific company that has unique style jumpsuits mass produced.

    yanno, in a world with Andrew Tate and many similar cases of insecure men who think women should be property and they use their podcasts or youtube channels to indoctrinate teenage boys into becoming misogynists and sometimes inspire real life murders; I’m extremely uninterested in a moustache twirling-style villain who talks like those assholes but is ineffectual and will be summarily put down with a punch by the equally ridiculous amazi-girl or a pie to the face by Carla.

    the scariness of men like that in real life is not only that often they have high positions of power (like the latest president elect), it’s not only that it’s often men we know, people we work with or are part of our families, no, the scariest part is how our culture is completely marinated in sexism, it’s inescapable and thus things slide back on progress very easily.

    I guess I’m not interested in seeing a silly goofball villain who belongs to a hate group. it’s like having a Snidely Whiplash character whose villain theme is that he’s a white supremacist.

        Because it simplifies and trivializes the problem. It might be cathartic, but it pretends there’s a easy satisfying solution to a deep entrenched social problem.

          This is a silly thing to say. Having a cartoon where a dipshit loser incel gets his shit pushed in doesn’t “pretend there’s an easy satisfying [and so on]”. It’s not saying “This is how it works in the real world! It’s just that easy!”, it’s saying “Goddamn, I wanna do this to these people”, which is based and good.

          I don’t think it’s an either/or thing. Different stories for different folks, at different times in their life, for when it speaks to them. We can have both simplified and complex villains, and they do not devalue each other. Sometimes some people want a full course meal, and sometimes they just want a piece of bread.

      We do have ridiculous goofball villains that are part of hate groups, though. Adolf Hitler is a favorite in comic books. This did not seem to diminish peoples’ appreciation for the reality of the holocaust.

      Making fun of a person or ideology is actually a very effective real-world weapon against them. Chaining ourselves to seriousness is not necessary.

    So, this comic may land differently this time of year for a lot of us in Canada than it does elsewhere.

    We’re less than a week from the anniversary of the December 6th École Polytechnique massacre in 1989, when an armed man burst into a classroom at a Montreal engineering school shouting misogynist slogans about feminists. He separated the men from the women, and then opened fire on the women. He then roamed the building targeting more women before finally shooting himself. 14 women died — 12 engineering students, a nursing student and a staff member — and several more were wounded. Since then, this date has been marked in Canada as the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women.

    I hope the Incelerator is just a buffoon whose comeuppance is about to arrive in the form of Sal, Carla or Amazi-Girl. (Or all three.) But I’ll be a little on edge until that happens, because this scene has some awfully dark antecedents.

      This is a good reminder that the hatred of women our cultures are steeped in is fatal to so many women. Police would much rather hunt down a guy who kills a rich white CEO than stop men from murdering their wives and girlfriends and crushes, just going by statistics on what crimes get punished.

    Everyone thinks Incelerator is a villain, because of the way he looks and acts and does villainy and is so unlikable I feel the need to clarify I’m doing a bit. But if he hadn’t shown up and changed the subject someone might have noticed that Jocelyne just made fun and downplayed of an incident where Joyce’s friend was literally fucking murdered. By arriving now, Incelerator spared Jocelyne an unbelievably uncomfortable conversation, taking Jocelynn’s social sins upon himself like a less fuckable Jesus.

    Society may hate him, and rightfully so, but Incelerator is the hero Indiana deserves, a geek so annoying he protects others from faux pas…es…?…

        I mean, she was setting up the Incelerator for a punchline, and any time the masks come on we’re in the silly zone where nothing makes sense and thinking about it too hard just makes you a wet blanket and everyone gets in a line to give you a wedgie like the nun in Airplane!.

        I just find it mildly amusing to think there’s probably a big gap between how making fun of “silly costumes” reads in our world where incels are boring vs the world of the comic where students are getting assaulted by masked supervillains on a regular basis and a dude Joyce knows got thrown off a roof to his death by The Legion Of Dad a few weeks ago, something Jocelyne’s and Joyce’s own mom was involved in.

    …. I’m like 90% certain that being on roller skates would make him LESS effective at fighting.

    … the remaining 10% is “he’s already at the lowest point on the scale possible”.

    “Cause he’s on roller skates”? No, I don’t get it.

    Is it just some wordplay on “accelerator” and my humor-expectations are set too high, or am I genuinely missing something here?

        No, but now that two costumed villains have shown up the floodgates might be about to open.

        When the whole cast inevitably becomes costumed vigilantes what will their superhero names be? We already have Amazi-girl and Night Guy. We might see Ultra Carla (Carla) and Bat Girl (Sarah with a bat).

The problems with this prosecution are legion, but most immediately, the
government cannot prosecute Judge Dugan because she is entitled to judicial immunity for her official acts. Immunity is not a defense to the prosecution to be determined later by a jury or court; it is an absolute bar to the prosecution at the outset. See Trump v. United States,

It's not a new argument, of course, but Chesterton dismissed it effectively in 1908. "You will hear everlastingly... this argument that the rich man cannot be bribed. The fact is, of course, that the rich man is bribed; he has been bribed already. That is why he is a rich man."

Hawley dismisses Trump lining his pockets with his memecoin: "Listen, I think nobody believes that Donald Trump can be bought. I mean, what does Donald Trump need more money for?"

Who can forget the Swiss-Austrian Union, or its famous capital - Istanbul.
AI generated ad by a company called Travello showing the 10 most visited cities in Europe, except the cities are hilariously poorly placed. London is in Wales, Paris is in Ireland, Rome is in France, Rom (yes like Rome but without an E) is in Spain, Barcelona is in Morocco, Prague is in Germany, Vienna is in Italy, Istanbul is in Austria, Milan is in Libya, and Antalya is correctly shown as in Turkey but is in the wrong place. Also a few of the borders like Switzerland and Austria or Hungary and Slovenia are missing.
