Disagree. I cannot stand a lazy sub. There is a world of difference between lazy, passive, and submissive. While they may all describe a general sense of related ideas, in practice I prefer a sub who is creative and has some level of initiative. If I wanted a sack of flesh to beat I’d get a corpse from the morgue.
In one of the more obscure verses, Jesus said “The kingdom of heaven is like when two women layeth beside the featherless bird of prey, and one shall be gentle and the other meek, and David himself shall not sunder them.”
Are you kidding? Dina wiggled her toes and that’s already enough fuel to tease a slipshine. I don’t think Becky would make it to the end of this semester if she started paying attention to the rest.
Yo-TOE-moe. No worries I see what you did there the first time. Respect. It may not be a kink exactly, but someone who can play with words stills arouses interest. Just check your altitude, there’s some things you’re still flying over. 😉
Dina is the ultimate woman: cute, intelligent, fun and able to disembowel someone with a well placed kick. So of course she’s sexually intimidating as well.
I find it wierd that she was previously declared Ace and yet also seems rather sexually aggressive. I’m just curious to see where this goes. Although she does not appear as physically turned on as Becky here. Almost as though Dina likes the idea of being sexually engaged but somehow just doesn’t get there.
Yeah, that dinobed can’t be too much larger than a Twin bed. That plus a modestly sized dresser and a door? Unless the other dimensions of the room are sizable, that seems somewhat small.
That’s still 85 square feet per resident, not counting hall and half-bath access rights-of-way. One of the colleges I looked at years ago would have stuck four people in that amount of space in their freshman dorms.
That’s cute that you think Sarah would do that. As someone who until recently had a Sarah gravatar, I feel uniquely “qualified”* to say she would not do that. Dorothy might though.
I totally feel like Dina is both analytical and well versed enough in biology that she likely has done some research on, um, reproductive anatomy and functionality.
Although a girls trip during which Sarah and/or Dorothy has to answer the home-schoolers’ questions about sex toys might just be the funniest thing I’ve imagined in a minute. Or they could just get Roz?
Roz would be hyper-judgemental about them not knowing. Even though Toedad and Carol were/are totally the sort of parents who would have viewed their children’s privacy as non-existent and bedroom doors as a privilege (barge in at any time unexpectedly, go through their things (Carol would claim to just be tidying up, Toedad would have been astonished and angry had anybody suggested he couldn’tgo through Becky’s things – they’re all ultimately his after all), read diaries, probably time-limited showers…) 😒
I think we can give the Browns a pass on time-limited showers. When you’ve got three or four adults sharing one water heater, compromises have to be made.
Compromise is for the weak. Shower on your own time, kids. Mom brought her Gameboy and half a pizza, and she ain’t comin’ out til these crusts are gone and Ganon’s history.
As a parent of a teen, we have started limiting shower length. There are seven people in this house, you CANNOT be in the bathroom an hour unless you are dying.
At the most, Sarah would roll her eyes, give an exasperated groan, say, “You want to know what? Okay, I’ll start by SHOWING YOU YOU HOW GOOGLE WORKS BECAUSE THAT WILL END THIS CONVERSATION FASTER THAN TRYING TO TELL YOU NO!” and then forward them some links.
I assume – and I want to be very clear, there is no need to provide proofs of the assumtion I am now going to make – that there are dinosaur themed sex toys.
I went and had a look, and there are SO MANY DINOSAUR THEMED SEX TOYS HOLY SHIT! Dildos and strap-ons, masturbation sleeves, vibrators, things to slide over one’s penis to make it more like a dinosaur penis. Dinosaurs seem to be a major fetish.
I’m hoping these two have a lasting relationship, they are so cute together. Also I’m hoping Becky loosens up and they do a horizontal tango but that’s for other reasons.(I’d finally have a reason to pay for slipshine)
only if Willis is really, really mean and has Carla appear out of nowhere while people have sex, because she can’t stand that people do things without her being the center of attention. 😛
just… passing through from hallway through half bath on rollerblades. just for “stop what you’re doing because I NEED TO BE CENTER OF ATTENTION“ and then leaving again.
…but it should be noted that most of that dialog is also written by straight men to be directed by straight men for the consumption of straight men, so it may not be entirely reflective of reality…
Yeah, I used to know, back in the ’80s, several members of the Lesbian Sex Mafia. Otherwise known as Lesbian Sado-Masochists. They can get graphic on you.
Oh, that’s not to say that they don’t get stuff right on occasion, just that… well, yeah, a lot of lesbian characters in popular culture are, shockingly, not written by lesbians or women.
Asking for graphic violence to be done to you? Even if this statement WASN’T coming out of Dina’s mouth in her very precise manner of speech (does she EVER use contractions, or did she learn how to talk from Damon Runyan short stories?), that is just too effin’ weird!
I’m starting to realise I might be in the gay side of tumblr and Twitter a bit TOO exclusively by the fact so many people here haven’t come across some of the phrasing sapphic women use. “I want her to punch me in the face” isn’t entirely uncommon
From Dina’s uncertainty about performing the disembowelment with her toes specifically, I took it as a reference to some manipulation that is normally performed with other digits.
I actually settled on Ruth after the last major grav shakeup in…2017, I think? Can’t remember what my original gravatar was, but after that shakeup it changed to Mary, and I was like “oh FUCK no” and began roulette-ing. Think it took a couple tries before I landed on Ruth, whom I was pretty happy to have as a grav at the time.
“STEP ON ME” by Ah-hmm playing on the distance like woah
… Honestly, despite her LOUD AS A ROCKET, CONSTANT LIKE CLOCKWORK screaming of how much of a Lesbian she is, Becky–? Yeah. MAJOR repression issues. Which makes me grin like a loon because between that and Dina’s scientific mind + predator instincts means so many sexy possibilities I can’t even.
I mean it’s not like straight girls don’t get repressed. It’s not about what orientation you are, it’s about whether you’re allowing yourself to actually be sexual about it (a separate issue)
I’d never have previously considered the notion of Dina being a primal, but thinking about it now after this strip I don’t know why it wouldn’t have ocured.
You might be onto something. She seems to have many of the characteristics of a lesbian. She’s a girl, she likes girls, she’s… um… I can’t seem to think of other characteristics right now.
That angle doesn’t look too far off from a recliner.
College kids can practically sleep upside-down in a chair. Little do they realize their back is taking notes the whole time, plotting its 20-year revenge plan.
Dina out here cracking the code to the “step on me” crowd. (I wonder if she first learned about that particular sapphic tendency from Carla, who definitely had a “step on me” moment with someone, IIRC. I think Malaya?)
(Also I gather gravatars got shuffled again after Joyce-with-glasses got added to the lineup so let’s roll those dice!)
If I’m remembering correctly, it was Malaya, yes. If my recollection continues being correct, she told them “You can be mean to me if you want to” with a blush and lip bite.
like and SUBscribe
Are you trying to imply something about Becky? I can’t be sure.
Becky is a sub.
Of course she is. Because the sub is in charge.
Well, my partner may be the one in charge for our relationship, but I’m still the one who gets us where we need to go on time!
There’s a certain laziness to being a sub. Sometimes the dom needs to crack the whip.
Disagree. I cannot stand a lazy sub. There is a world of difference between lazy, passive, and submissive. While they may all describe a general sense of related ideas, in practice I prefer a sub who is creative and has some level of initiative. If I wanted a sack of flesh to beat I’d get a corpse from the morgue.
Uh oh! Becky’s purity might be in danger!
We can only hope.
Someone need to tell becky that jesus said its cool.
If Dina keeps operating like this, Becky will forget all about Jesus.
In one of the more obscure verses, Jesus said “The kingdom of heaven is like when two women layeth beside the featherless bird of prey, and one shall be gentle and the other meek, and David himself shall not sunder them.”
Are you sure?? I’ve just spent 2 1/2 hours trying to find it but so far no luck.
It’s not a story the priests would tell you.
I think you’ve been led on. The verse sounds like hokum to me.
It’s only in the most obscure bibles.
This is why we have apocrypha.
Aren’t you just talking about this comic strip?
Jesus said: “I’ll do it!” and he turned the other cheek!
“But then, He stopped in the middle, and, lo, both cheeks were turned.”
…. and where it says “cheek“ can we be sure the translation means the upper cheeks?
When those two finally do it, it’s gonna be the purest loss of purity ever.
Great, now Becky’s gonna have a fetish for Dina’s feet as well as her scalp.
If only she’d pay more attention to the 95% in between.
Are you kidding? Dina wiggled her toes and that’s already enough fuel to tease a slipshine. I don’t think Becky would make it to the end of this semester if she started paying attention to the rest.
Becky Does A Toe Worship
Haha who’d have a thing for feet? That’d certainly be weird right haha.
As fetishes go, that one’s actually fairly pedestrian.
I see what you did there. Also don’t worry I do now its vanila trust me
I have a metric ton of kinks. Waaaaay too many.Yo-TOE-moe. No worries I see what you did there the first time. Respect. It may not be a kink exactly, but someone who can play with words stills arouses interest. Just check your altitude, there’s some things you’re still flying over. 😉
Pedestrian. Good one.
Other things she can do with her toes…
Their Slipshine would be adorably awkward
Dina Performs A Sex And Takes Copious Notation
Becky touches a head
dina attempts a sex
Though Rigorous Application of Empirical Testing Dina Optimizes a Sex
And we have a winner! This is pure Dina (and Sheldon Cooper).
Despite Dina’s previously professed Ace status, I still feel like she would get very VERY different results than Dr Cooper on such an activity.
Please Don’t Leave Your Hat On.
Holy fuck I’ve missed these two
Dina is the ultimate woman: cute, intelligent, fun and able to disembowel someone with a well placed kick. So of course she’s sexually intimidating as well.
Fine take all the upvotes. You earned them, now gettum outta here.
I find it wierd that she was previously declared Ace and yet also seems rather sexually aggressive. I’m just curious to see where this goes. Although she does not appear as physically turned on as Becky here. Almost as though Dina likes the idea of being sexually engaged but somehow just doesn’t get there.
When was Dina ever said to be ace?
Wow their dorms are massive
Are they? They feel small to me, given it’s shared between two people.
Yeah, that dinobed can’t be too much larger than a Twin bed. That plus a modestly sized dresser and a door? Unless the other dimensions of the room are sizable, that seems somewhat small.
Remember, the dino plush replaced her regular twin XL loft bed. It’s not taking up otherwise empty space in the room.
Assuming those doors are at least 32″ wide (for ADA compliance), I’m guessing the room is probably 12 to 15 feet wide and 16 to 20 feet long?
Luxury. Our dorm rooms were at best a snug 10×15, and all the furniture was built in, minus the wooden chairs.
According to a random unsourced floorplan found on Pintrest, approximately 10’x17′ 🙂
Close enough!
That’s still 85 square feet per resident, not counting hall and half-bath access rights-of-way. One of the colleges I looked at years ago would have stuck four people in that amount of space in their freshman dorms.
If I remember the location correctly, the dorm I was in back in the 80s had about 160 sq feet as a double.
This was mid-2000s, shortly before the economy climaxed and chafed itself. Things were getting cartoonish up to that point.
(And me being the timid antisocial nerd I was, decided to commute to night school instead.)
Well now. THAT’S an image.
Not that Becky noticed or anything…
[eating popcorn intensifies]
Oh dearie, she’s catching on!
Yes… come back to the Dina side…
I’m a little afraid to ask how this has happened to Dina enough for her to use such a habitual phrasing.
I’m assuming she’s just seen a lot of internet people say “I want her to step on me” in regards to fictional characters.
Or maybe variations of “pound me” or “eat me”.
Yeah, I went straight to “eat me.”
You’re being too light, I regularly would see sapphics wanting particularly impressive/strong ladies to punch them in the face, killing them instantly
You know, when someone else says it. It sounds weird.
Did your English teacher tell you what ‘die’ means in poetry?
Isn’t that only the case when it comes to little deaths?
Brings an entirely new meaning to “A coward dies a thousand times”
Why rush into off to war when you can instead “comfort” all the unsatisfied partners everyone else left behind?
“There ain’t no use in going home/Jody’s got your girl and gone.”
–Old marching song
She’s read Amber’s fanfics.
Does Dina know how to take care of her uh… ….urges… by herself?
If not, that would make for an interesting story arc.
Otherwise, this arc is already interesting for the fact that the eventual turnout is anyone’s guess.
New story arc: Sarah teaches the girls how to masterbate! Complete with a trip to the sex toy store!
Coming (ahem) soon to Slipshine!
That’s cute that you think Sarah would do that. As someone who until recently had a Sarah gravatar, I feel uniquely “qualified”* to say she would not do that. Dorothy might though.
*Qualifications pending
Well, I don’t think she’d demonstrate or stand there and walk them through it but she can cover the basics.
I totally feel like Dina is both analytical and well versed enough in biology that she likely has done some research on, um, reproductive anatomy and functionality.
Although a girls trip during which Sarah and/or Dorothy has to answer the home-schoolers’ questions about sex toys might just be the funniest thing I’ve imagined in a minute. Or they could just get Roz?
Roz would be hyper-judgemental about them not knowing. Even though Toedad and Carol were/are totally the sort of parents who would have viewed their children’s privacy as non-existent and bedroom doors as a privilege (barge in at any time unexpectedly, go through their things (Carol would claim to just be tidying up, Toedad would have been astonished and angry had anybody suggested he couldn’tgo through Becky’s things – they’re all ultimately his after all), read diaries, probably time-limited showers…) 😒
I think we can give the Browns a pass on time-limited showers. When you’ve got three or four adults sharing one water heater, compromises have to be made.
Compromise is for the weak. Shower on your own time, kids. Mom brought her Gameboy and half a pizza, and she ain’t comin’ out til these crusts are gone and Ganon’s history.
As a parent of a teen, we have started limiting shower length. There are seven people in this house, you CANNOT be in the bathroom an hour unless you are dying.
I note that Roz lives a few doors down, is explic- openly involved in sex ed, and released a sex tape.
At the most, Sarah would roll her eyes, give an exasperated groan, say, “You want to know what? Okay, I’ll start by SHOWING YOU YOU HOW GOOGLE WORKS BECAUSE THAT WILL END THIS CONVERSATION FASTER THAN TRYING TO TELL YOU NO!” and then forward them some links.
I assume – and I want to be very clear, there is no need to provide proofs of the assumtion I am now going to make – that there are dinosaur themed sex toys.

Bad Dragon.
Omg. This would make Dina very happy. And horny like a triceratops.
I suppose the shop from Questionable Content is too far away for a road trip…
(Couldn’t find it, sorry.)
Of course, as soon as I say that, I have another idea and find it.
https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1379
It hasn’t been too long since Dina told Amber she’d yet to experience those urges.
Dina is canon Ace, she doesn’t pursue sexual activity, but she does enjoy when it happens.
I somehow missed where that appears in the canon.
WOO! Finally, a strip with Becky I can actually enjoy.
Yes, savoring this
JESUS these two. OM. XD
God I ship these two.
I’m hoping these two have a lasting relationship, they are so cute together. Also I’m hoping Becky loosens up and they do a horizontal tango but that’s for other reasons.(I’d finally have a reason to pay for slipshine)
I think Becky, Dina, and Carla are the only ladies in this hall who haven’t been on there yet. I think.
And Carla’s sex-repulsed ace, I believe we thus have Word of Willis to that effect that she’ll never ever be on Slipshine.
only if Willis is really, really mean and has Carla appear out of nowhere while people have sex, because she can’t stand that people do things without her being the center of attention. 😛
just… passing through from hallway through half bath on rollerblades. just for “stop what you’re doing because I NEED TO BE CENTER OF ATTENTION“ and then leaving again.
And isn’t Joyce only on there in a “this will never canonically happen in a million years but here it is anyway” one-off?
I believe the scene alluded to in the practice room was Becky/Dina.
That’s page 108 of the pornographique.
Joyce? Who’d she appear in Slipshine with?
Dorothy.
It was uploaded on April 1st.
*plays Michael & Janet’s “Scream” on the hacked Muzak*
*Follows it up with Michael Jackson’s “Dangerous”*
Come forth, Slipshine!
The power of the Internet compels you!
Yup, Dina, I know those feels.
Well, yes, Dina…
…but it should be noted that most of that dialog is also written by straight men to be directed by straight men for the consumption of straight men, so it may not be entirely reflective of reality…
Ive met enough lesbians to know not all of it is but go off i guess.
Yeah, I used to know, back in the ’80s, several members of the Lesbian Sex Mafia. Otherwise known as Lesbian Sado-Masochists. They can get graphic on you.
I had a roomie who was a member.
Yeah clearly they’ve never seen lesbians going feral for buff chicks and wanting to be greviously injured by them
it’s me I’m lesbiansIf Dina makes one more sexy remark, Becky will go off.
Oh, that’s not to say that they don’t get stuff right on occasion, just that… well, yeah, a lot of lesbian characters in popular culture are, shockingly, not written by lesbians or women.
Space aliens?
Asking for graphic violence to be done to you? Even if this statement WASN’T coming out of Dina’s mouth in her very precise manner of speech (does she EVER use contractions, or did she learn how to talk from Damon Runyan short stories?), that is just too effin’ weird!
One of those ‘step on me’ things, I think.
I dunno my taste in women is pretty much just “will do graphic violence to me”. That and “Will probably ruin my life”.
I’m starting to realise I might be in the gay side of tumblr and Twitter a bit TOO exclusively by the fact so many people here haven’t come across some of the phrasing sapphic women use. “I want her to punch me in the face” isn’t entirely uncommon
Either that or they’re just not around horny people nearly as much as I am.
And people wonder why I never get they are flirting…
I mean, seriously?
Is that what the kids are calling handiwork these days? Or does this explain some puzzling events in Candide?
I’d call it footwork.
I’d call it footloose and fancy free.
Well, I don’t usually refer to it as a “fancy,” but everyone to his own kick.
Kick off your Sunday shoes.
From Dina’s uncertainty about performing the disembowelment with her toes specifically, I took it as a reference to some manipulation that is normally performed with other digits.
I took it as a foot poked up… You know what? Never mind.
Of course you normally disembowel people with
er never mind
Well I do. But I doubt Dina does.
I feel like I should argue but she’s not wrong
Dina is dangerous. She knows your weak points.
Love these two, pfft.
Glad that, despite her hesitation, Becky did listen to Dorothy’s advice.
In UR endo.
Ha. Took me a minute.
Cowboy Bebop text saying, “You’re gonna carry that weight”, except ‘weight’ is replaced by ‘fetish’
Beebop? I thought that was the Beatles’ song?
It’s both, BeBop is referencing the Beatles’ song.
It’s time, Becky. It’s time to buy that billion tickets to hell.
very very correct Dina
Disemboweling is all well and good but if you tell me Becky isn’t the kinda girl that bites in the bedroom, I’m gonna be very disappointed.
Plot twist: Becky’s a biter, and Dina ISN’T.
Damnit I meant Dina. I don’t know how I accidentally said Becky. DINA needs to bite.
We now know a third weakness to use against you.
What’re the other two?
Gilded weapons such as a golden bullet or large vegetable trophy, for one.
Dang, Dina can dig it.
That was very subtle. You can have the box of upvotes that someone’s left in the corner.
A more extreme version of “I want her to step on me.”
Huh, my avatar changed? I used to be Blowjob Cat, now I’m Joyce with her new glasses!
nice
unless you want to be blowjob cat, in which case…
YOU CAN’T HAVE HIM HE’S MINE I TELL YOU
*hiss*
Because I STOLE your avatar! Mwahahahahaha!
Joyce with her new glasses is a good avatar.
I was Galasso for ages, and then I was Billie… I mean, Jennifer… for a few days. I would’ve been happy staying her.
First I had Sierra, then Dina for a few years, then Professor Robin for a couple weeks.
I was happy with my Asher and Jennifer gravs, but Dina and Julia Gray ain’t bad at all.
Yea, I’d be tickled pink to be Dina. Or my favorite character, Ruth.
I actually settled on Ruth after the last major grav shakeup in…2017, I think? Can’t remember what my original gravatar was, but after that shakeup it changed to Mary, and I was like “oh FUCK no” and began roulette-ing. Think it took a couple tries before I landed on Ruth, whom I was pretty happy to have as a grav at the time.
I have always liked Dina and now I like her more than ever. Holy crow, Dina. Good job.
SLAY QUEEN
*bangs on table*
DINO DOMME DINA! DINO DOMME DINA! DINO DOMME DINA!
Dina, just letting her instincts flow, would be the most adorable dom play ever.
I’m not sure if Dina has realized just how strong her sexy powers are yet.
“STEP ON ME” by Ah-hmm playing on the distance like woah
… Honestly, despite her LOUD AS A ROCKET, CONSTANT LIKE CLOCKWORK screaming of how much of a Lesbian she is, Becky–? Yeah. MAJOR repression issues. Which makes me grin like a loon because between that and Dina’s scientific mind + predator instincts means so many sexy possibilities I can’t even.
(DOM DINA! DOM DINA!)
I mean it’s not like straight girls don’t get repressed. It’s not about what orientation you are, it’s about whether you’re allowing yourself to actually be sexual about it (a separate issue)
I’ve known straight and gay girls both who didn’t open themselves to the possibility of sex until they were in their 20s. Or later.
I’d never have previously considered the notion of Dina being a primal, but thinking about it now after this strip I don’t know why it wouldn’t have ocured.
screen in the dark can’t be good for your eyes 😐 no matter how comforting it is
(but in the end, Becky immeidately listening to Dorothy, surprisingly…or not so surprisingly)
Dina has left cute awkward and run head first into creepy.
Dina trying out sexy talk is much like Dina trying out jokes.
amber ïs getting so much fanfic material out of this
I’m not much of a Becky fan but I like that (after being called out) she has the courage and honesty to address her problem directly.
Y’all, I think Becky might be gay.
I dunno, you’d think she’d have mentioned it by now…
Further study required.
You might be onto something. She seems to have many of the characteristics of a lesbian. She’s a girl, she likes girls, she’s… um… I can’t seem to think of other characteristics right now.
Becky’s eye are everything here.
–
Also, who else has noticed the Hiveworks banner still has Joyce sans glasses, unlike every other drawing of her?
Obviously the only reasonable thing to do is get married.
Jeebus, I can’t imagine that giant raptor plushie can be comfortable to sleep on night after night. I get sore just thinking about it.
That angle doesn’t look too far off from a recliner.
College kids can practically sleep upside-down in a chair. Little do they realize their back is taking notes the whole time, plotting its 20-year revenge plan.
My liver took notes, too. As did my knees.
Well, if the choice is comfort or giant raptor plushie given to her by her awesome girlfriend, there’s not even a question what Dina would chose.
if Becky blushes any more she’ll begin to glow crimson in the dark
Humor is knowing someone well enough to select for them an appropriate
lieinnuendo.College has been equal parts paleontology and anthropology for Dina. She’s a fast learner.
Assault me with your tongue
Batter me with your hands
Murder me with your lips
Oh, and do that thing with your claws
No, not that thing, the other thing
Yeah, that’s the stuff, oh, baby, I die
Let our love be a flame, not an ember
Say it’s me that you want to dismember
Are these MCR lyrics?
The couplet immediately before yours is Tom Lehrer.
I have no idea who that is.
Aargh You have such a treat in store! Hie thee to Youtube.

Those lines are from The Masochism Tango.
Not to be missed! Tom Lehrer is one of the core pleasures of Western culture!
You are more to be pitied than anything. As Agemegos said, get to YouTube or Google.
why does dina keep picking me up in these strips jesus christ
Dina out here cracking the code to the “step on me” crowd. (I wonder if she first learned about that particular sapphic tendency from Carla, who definitely had a “step on me” moment with someone, IIRC. I think Malaya?)
(Also I gather gravatars got shuffled again after Joyce-with-glasses got added to the lineup so let’s roll those dice!)
Ah, nope, still Julia Gray. Works for me!
If I’m remembering correctly, it was Malaya, yes. If my recollection continues being correct, she told them “You can be mean to me if you want to” with a blush and lip bite.
Sounds like this one.
https://www.dumbingofage.com/2018/comic/book-8/03-faz-is-great/friendly/
Do you think Dina would make a good sadist?
Dina, you deserve all the happiness for your developing yet still learning personality.
Disembowel someone with their toes, in a sexual way?
I’ve never even heard of that as a sexual move.
