As someone who is also posting some kinda heavy content right now, agreed. We Are Reproducing quote:  Parsley in the Corner quote: -  -  End of chapter 1! I’m interested to see where Q-Rais takes this – so far it’s set up to be a very straight go at magical girls. Parsley is reluctant, peril to her beloved little brother forces her to give it a go, she becomes the third not-Pretty Cure, etc. A straight take doesn't seem very Q-Rais, but subversion of the magical girls genre has been done, and done well, before.

Considering how Monya The Gray went I will take Q-Rai's sincere or subverting take on anything.  This is good stuff! I love the Q-Rais style but also very genre-style annoying exposition mascot, perfectly spot on.

Julet Esqu posted:She doesn't want kids and Brad keeps pressuring her to get pregnant. (It seems they never once talked about it before getting married, both just assuming the other felt the same way.) That's why she's so unenthused about it it right now and why she hesitates to tell Brad. Guess she should have cut down on the cream pies. This isn’t red rocket science.

I don't find Daddy Daze nearly as aggravating as, say, Luann. But if its current content is hitting too close to home, there's nothing wrong with taking a break from it, or just skipping that arc. also: Bok rules.

I can't quote everybody, but thank you all for the kind words. After I saw tuesday's Daddy Daze, I looked ahead so I know that this arc ends on the 24th and I've faced all of those strips. Posting them isn't a problem for me. I've been posting Daddy Daze since (oh god!) 2019, and in that time there has only been one strip that stuck with me, and that was one in which Dad was telling Angus about what a great mother he has while they were going over to her house, and then on the way home, Dad calls to say hi to his own mom. It was really sweet and wholesome. I hope I can find it again. Tuesday's strip with the phone call is like the inverse of that, and it stands out because it's such an effective gut punch and delivering a sense of dread. Frankly, I'm impressed. John Kovaleski can make emotional scenes work, but the daily churn of mild amusement or aspiring relatability never lands. And thread regulars will know that ba ba Angus is far from the worst baby that could be posted in here.

Reminder: we first met Bok less than a month ago. It's an amazing job of characterization that we're already cheering for someone that was introduced so recently... and as Flash's life-or-death opponent, no less. As an (occasional, wannabe) author myself, I'm tremendously impressed at how Schkade manages to keep up this story pace without it ever feeling rushed.

The coronation in question was George VI's, after Edward VIII abdicated. Invisible Scarlet O'Neil 4/25/43  If Scarlet is trying to teach Beansie to be nicer to women, what's the point of just randomly shooting him in the rear end when he's not doing anything? Also, Scarlet, you just got outwitted by a frankly not very bright child. Closer Than We Think! 5/1/60  This is the second time Radebaugh has drawn astronauts carrying those "rocket canes," which sound like a really great way to kill yourself. Also, he seems to have confused "thermoelectric" and "thermonuclear" in the text. Bonus Ad! No, the "buy bonds to be patriotic" fervor didn't end during the war. But don't worry, in a couple decades Ronald Reagan would come along and end this silly idea that government could do anything to help people.
