I have been putting off reading this comic, but all those images in the OP have pushed me over the brink. Archive binge begins now.

And done. Wow, that was pretty amazing. Someone needs to draw Bacon and Boxbot hanging out together.

I was just coming here to post this. It is. It is a half-unwrapped chocolate bar oh my god.

I was kind of hoping he'd just barbecue Splashmaster with his wand. I know it wouldn't fit the tone, but it would be so cathartic.

Yeah there's something fishy going on here... Why even make a face like that in the first place?

I read it as her having figured out how the cannon works. She's deliberately holding in her impulse to shout so it won't get the last percent. So the "I am totally being calm" face is a bit forced.

I think the Nightmare Knight is interested in ending the cycle too; note that he opened up the wall for Our Heroes right after Nautilus said that was their goal.

She's saying they gay and also complaining about the absurdly widespread habit of people doing insane back flip corkscrews to call obvious lesbians straight platonic friends.

Which is weird, because there is also an absurdly widespread habit of people doing insane back flip corkscrews to call platonic friend (or even family) obviously porking.

Basically, at whatever point they're at, a lot of people will just write the rest of the story in their own heads and try to ignore evidence that they've got it wrong to the maximum extent possible. This tendency is not restricted by gender preference.

I think she's talking about stuff like the Jerkcity edit. Jerkcity is one of those cultural things that seems a lot more horrifying if you aren't already within its ambit.

She seems to be having a bad day on twitter in general; it sounds like some MRAs are bugging her.

G☆I☆G☆I @gigideegee · 34m we know bad things happen to men too. do you usually contribute to discussions of social issues by comparing everything to the holocaust, or

G☆I☆G☆I @gigideegee · 15m "he explicitly said he was waging a war on women" "yeah but more men died so--" stop! please! read what you are typing

G☆I☆G☆I @gigideegee · 13m sorry for depressing tweets again. i am very sad atm

Might be a good time to buy a book or something if you've been thinking about doing it.

"@gigideegee they have an even creepier offsite chat that they were attempting to invite artists to for some reason. :allears:"

We have? Nobody ever tells me anything.

There's an IRC channel attached to the regular, non-mock webcomic thread that's been pretty dormant for years. I think we had a discussion about a year ago about making a new one, which never happened. So, basically, no, as far as I know that's just more nonsense.

Poison Mushroom posted:

To be fair, the GBS webcomics thread is incredibly gross, and the regular one isn't really much better.

I think you'll find that the regular webcomic thread is pretty cool, friend.

As it happens, though, she's probably upset about the recent discussion of Questionable Content in that thread. It ended up being mostly in favor of the comic, actually, but a few people really get mad about it whenever it comes up. And then K.C. Green decided to tweet about it and a few other webcomic artists joined in, so I guess a few of them really are reading SA? It's all kind of weird.

I... I don't think we ever put Cucumber Quest in the terrible webcomics thread, did we?

The terrible webcomic thread has mocked CQ several times, and I believe is doing so right at this moment, as a result of the tweets.

I legitimately have no idea how anyone, anywhere could ever hate Cucumber Quest. That requires some serious dedication to hating. Maybe if you hate a little each day you can build up some kind of hate-muscles that eventually allow you to hate really good things?

In other news, it looks like the $60,000 stretch goal got met and the $80,000 one is looking pretty likely, so we're in for more frequent updates again.

The extra-update tier really is the best tier. Maybe someday she'll start up a Patreon so we can cleverly force her to update more frequently in perpetuity by giving her large sums of money.
