Is foob over, or is Lynn still pumping out new strips set in the timeless nowhere you’d see if it was in reruns?

If Mary Worth is using this story to highlight the problem of depression and suicide among veterinarians, that’s a worthy and a thoughtful use of the strip. I had been wondering if this story was heading in that direction. Basically, veterinarians are at high risk of suicide because they’re motivated by compassion and end up seeing animal and human suffering that they can’t relieve, plus they have unrestricted access to suicide drugs and the technical skill to dose them correctly. Doctors don’t see the same outcome partially because hospitals keep the drugs locked up and partially because they’re usually part of a larger team who know and look out for each other, not that mental illness among physical hasn’t been severely stigmatized.

I’m glad Mary Worth is addressing suicide risk for veterinarians, but it seems like a terrible idea to go to the same psychiatrist as your girlfriend. Maybe the psychiatrist is Wilbur in drag.

Was Stella part of the Mary Worth cast before she started dating Wilbur? Is Wilbur out of the friend rotation now that Stella is Mary’s pal?

riderchop posted:Heathcliff It’s comforting that no matter how surreal Heathcliff gets, there’s still completely mundane reader mail where people describe cute things their cats do. It’s depressing that Compu-toon is a stark vision of Charles Boyce’s anxieties and fragile emotional state. What was the text about? Hopefully not the syndicate noticing that they still carry his strip.

So there’s no way that the other dog in Mary Worth is actually dead, right? I don’t even want to see the fighting dogs, because in real life they’d probably have to be killed, and it’s not their fault they’re so aggressive.

It’s pretty sad that people born in a certain era got married because they felt they had to in order to participate in society, and that they resent anyone who wasn’t subjected to that expectation. Fortunately they won’t be around for much longer.

Does anyone at the syndicate read Computoon? I’m getting worried about Boyce. I understand the joke at a conceptual level, but the expression in the caption is unclear in a way that makes me wonder if something is wrong.

Maybe Mary’s vet friend will step in to educate everyone about orgs that help dogs rescued from fighting rings.
