I mean, it's not exactly a hard read on Twilight that it's about an incredibly mediocre teenage girl becoming the most important person in the world by virtue of cute boys liking her. Pretty much most romantic genres get hosed up easily when the primary characters' actions are all justified by ~twu wuv~ and the author's obvious boner for their particular pairing and its associated dynamics overriding any reasonable moral and ethical issues.

You have selected: Regicide! If you now the name of the king or queen being murdered, press one! It is actually kinda cute that Lostclock is just genuinely fascinated with weird creatures, and tries to figure out how they work.

"black people shouldn't get paid" "that's ok because you can't discuss wages" absolutely slayed me

Thinking about it, that's totally a gag that could come up in a 90s Dilbert, sans the "monstrously racist" remark.

"I have no problem with them working. I just don't think they should get paid." was a good line. I don't really agree, but I had to laugh at that.

the half-pasted-over disclaimer about Dilbert characters reappears (still in its mangled form) for the strip with Alice and then disappears for the next one

Pinocchio Chapter 10: The Marionettes recognize their brother Pinocchio, and greet him with loud cheers; but the puppeteer, Fire Eater, happens along and poor Pinocchio almost loses his life. We are a little over a quarter done, but some chapters will probably be broken up into a couple of posts.

Fire-Eater is very relatable, imo

Ultrafilter you have got to make a website for powerup. I know a bunch of people who would appreciate the crap out of your stuff but they're not going to search Twitter or come to this dead forum. Whip up a deliberately lovely WordPress site why don't you.

There's a non zero chance C&S put this spin on the story trick me (and others) into reading it, which I admit would be pretty hilarious.

it's not a particularly complicated read, just lengthy, and the weird thing about major cultural flashpoints is that they encourage you to check them out because they're popular... which further cements their ubiquity and "necessity" to read as part of a shared cultural lexicon

There's an archive of Powerup, Abbeycourt Manor and Gamer Dilbert on The Duck, although they aren't kept up to date in real time but rather periodically updated. And also Ultrafilter is just posting Powerup, it's the similarly named Unwinder who makes them.
