This is just like when Republicans go on about Democrats wanting to destroy capitalism and everybody was like, “Fuck, how I wish that were true”, isn’t it?
If only. In reality, only a tiny percentage would be on board. If you hang out in leftist circles, it might seem that way, but that’s hardly a representative sample of the population.
That kind of rhetoric works for Republicans and probably is a good part of why the public doesn’t support Democrats nearly as much as they like Democratic policies.
I remember, a couple of decades ago, explaining to a guy with three jobs and two children how petroleum subsidies worked. “You mean my tax dollars go to billion-dollar oil companies?”
Maybe Mary has actually discovered the secret that IU is a purgatory viewed by extra dimensional beings who take wry amusement at the struggles of thier fictitious lives. She’s peered past the 4th wall to the truth.
Breath of the Wild Link has a stellar amount of character and personality to him, if you haven’t checked him out yet. He’s also pretty easy on the eyes, if you haven’t “checked him out” yet.
lol would it really be skipping the party (unless tehy break up at the end/middle of it) since dina and becky going in too means they’ll prolly go through it and then go to sarah/joyce’s party afterwards lol
This entire moment is going to be ugly, I guess.
I wish Becky and Dina leave this place soon, but they should passed through this Halloween better than RuLlie.
Dang it, who spilled all this gasoline on my pile of dried logs! Inconsiderate jerks like that really tick me off, let me put this box of oily rags down on top so I can have a smoke to calm down…
I *almost* feel bad for Mary. Almost. She probably put a lot of effort into this, and got FOUR WHOLE PEOPLE to show up – she’s probably thinking, “Wow, people actually listened to me! Maybe I’m starting to get some actual respect around here!” But of course they’re all strictly to laugh at her and her thing.
Now that I think about it, I think “almost feeling sorry for her” is more or less how I generally feel about Mary. She seems like a very lonely person who spends more time than not angry and bitter, and I almost pity her for that, but then I remember that she has literally no one to blame but herself, and I go back to feeling pure schadenfreude whenever she gets dunked on.
Surely she has other people to blame besides herself? I presume she grew up with the beliefs she espouses, or some form thereof. And yeah we can say that now that she’s living away from her family she can develop her own beliefs like Joyce and Becky, but that’s an individual journey.
Until she grows some curiosity and starts to learn how to act like a person, yes, it’s still her own fault she’s Like This. There are definitely circumstances, but clearly she’s not interested in looking beyond them.
I mean, as I understand it (from American media, they’re not a thing over here), if you set up a Hell House, your target audience isn’t exactly people who agree with what you’re saying
The entire point is to be as much of a nuisance and pest as possible, so that when people have had enough you can put on some fake tears and say “Look how mean they’re being to meeeee!”. I’m not exaggerating and it’s public knowledge.
Yeah, the comic has talked plainly in the past about how sects like Mary’s and Becky’s train you to do that sort of thing with every part of your life in order to alienate the secular (i.e. not-your-sect) world and make you isolated while also instilling a sense of righteous superiority and persecution. Or, I think it was in the comic itself, could have been Willis posting.
If Mary didn’t spend all her time being bitter and lonely she might start noticing other people instead of thinking they are a faceless herd of godless beasts headed for hell and she’s so much better than them, and then where would she be?
I mentioned this above, but I really think Mary feels everybody turning up to laugh at her is a success because she doesn’t know how, or doesn’t care about other people enough, to distinguish between good and bad attention.
Uh, Billie, she tried to express genuine love like 20 minutes ago and you kept being a dink about it. Yes, I do remember strips that happened before this one, you can’t fool me.
I think it’s pretty straightforward, what I said. Billie actively sucks, no matter how hot she is and no matter what weird plans Ruth has in store. I like ’em better split up.
Yeah, it’s all the more irritating that she has real human motives for being a douche and could choose not to be at any time. She’s even capable of not being a douche for long enough to get a commission from Sarah, but nah, even with the little we see her she’s a complex character.
lol too bad mike’s still not around to take a pic of mary and photoshop out the thumbs down of the 666 and post it online everywhere lol(well anyone else can do so as well)
Ruth is also doing the same thing here, so safe to say it’s been consentual bullying that is falling apart. Ruth’s TELLING Billie they thrive on hate. Billie is genuine, Ruth bristles, and Billie follows it with a knowing joke.
Okay, I read it that Billie was, in fact, saying it to piss Ruth off (the “look how very sincere and innocent I’m being” panel), but I officially stopped trying to understand Billie and Ruth’s relationship a while back, so I’m probably wrong.
That’s just a restating of their well-established dynamic in general. It seems to me that Billie is not being genuine here, that this is a mocking reference to Ruth’s attempt at earnest affection.
They both seem to think the way to act in a non-dysfunctional relationship is just to do either what they’re used to but ironically, or do the opposite of that, at random? They got a lot to figure out. That they probably won’t by breaking up.
Go to see Mary’s thing seems some.sort of really bad punishment that could traumatised you for life, or at least ruin your afternoon. I’m hoping the thing is so ridiculously serious to become incredibly funny to see.
And this is why Jennifer’s so pissed off now. She was so into that relationship that she was starting to be genuine. And then Ruth breaks up with her. “For her own good”. That’s devastating.
Man, the more this shows how their relationship evolved, the more sense Jennifer’s HARD turn makes to me. I’m still kinda reeling from the revelation that this was like… a week after the kidnapping.
lets not pass judgement just yet.
this is all leadup to the thing that made ruth have her second thoughts.
the badaboom that make us all say “oh, that’s why she left” hasn’t even happened yet.
it probably won’t happen for another 2-3 ruth/billie episodes.
(so maybe about 2-8 pages if you include the possible becky/dina/dorothy/joyce pages)
I thought the comments section was here so we could collectively pass judgement before we even knew there was something to judge? That’s the vibe I’ve picked up.
Yeah. Now Mary’s words to Billie have a much more contextual tone in…. context.
“You got off easy” seems very much less like a casual snide remark AND 100% like “I scared your girlfriend straight”. Which, given how Mary seems to have reveled in that statement (the one she actually did say)…. good god, Mary, get a life. You broke them up. Good for you. What more do you want?
ROZ: Niles said you’re going on a date with a trans woman.
FRASIER: I suppose you don’t approve.
ROZ: Oh, no, Frasier, I really feel for trans women.
FRASIER: Oh? Do go on.
ROZ: Oh, I can just relate to any woman who has a useless prick they’d like to get rid of
Dear cis people,
It's well past the point where this kind of thing will fix everything, but I want you to take note of how easy this is.
These little freaks are soft-handed little babies that will fold like a napkin in the rain.
Light these fools up.

Nice!
Whatever is in that Hell House, I hope Dina tears it all up like a Tyrannosaurus! 🦖
A few years ago a comic series was released called “Godzilla in Hell.”
He did well for himself and they were relieved to see him go, I suspect.
OK i just HAVE to play this now! 🤩

Oh come on Doctor. You know as well as I do that time doesn’t really work that way.

I guess this answers the question of why Mary knows what went down on Halloween. She probably witnessed it first hand.
At some level she probably caused it.

This is going to be either hysterical or heartbreaking. Possibly both.

Dang it, who spilled all this gasoline on my pile of dried logs! Inconsiderate jerks like that really tick me off, let me put this box of oily rags down on top so I can have a smoke to calm down…
Where can I store this crate of nitroglycerin, then?
That stuff’s kinda dangerous, so let’s put this box of fireworks between it and the flammables. There! Now everything’s safe!
I’ll play Bowie’s “Putting out fire with gasoline” on a loud volume here, since nothing dramatically ironic should happen in real life!
Ruth, you’re a bad liar.

According to Willis’s last word on the subject, Mary’s parents are pretty decent people, and they’re very disappointed with how Mary has turned out.
Sometimes a parent can do everything in their power to raise a kid right, and the kid will still turn out to be a complete dingus.
I mean, as I understand it (from American media, they’re not a thing over here), if you set up a Hell House, your target audience isn’t exactly people who agree with what you’re saying

Uh, Billie, she tried to express genuine love like 20 minutes ago and you kept being a dink about it. Yes, I do remember strips that happened before this one, you can’t fool me.
Is it possible to learn this power?
Not…from a Jedi.
Of course, she was also plotting to break up with her at the time, so it’s all a bit more confused than that.
I think it’s pretty straightforward, what I said. Billie actively sucks, no matter how hot she is and no matter what weird plans Ruth has in store. I like ’em better split up.
GOD that felt entirely too sweet this is gonna HURT
Yeah, it’s all the more irritating that she has real human motives for being a douche and could choose not to be at any time. She’s even capable of not being a douche for long enough to get a commission from Sarah, but nah, even with the little we see her she’s a complex character.
Absolutely nothing could possibly go wrong with Ruth’s plan, and I unreservedly endorse it.
I say there, where’s the popcorn?
Normally I’d say Ruth and Billie are about to have a fun night but they’re really really not.
Willis had told us this in the alt text.
Uh-oh… Ruth’s going to rip off the bandage and the scab’s coming with it.

I really don’t understand this. She throws any tenderness back into Ruth’s face with disgust and contempt but then pulls this?!
Ruth is also doing the same thing here, so safe to say it’s been consentual bullying that is falling apart. Ruth’s TELLING Billie they thrive on hate. Billie is genuine, Ruth bristles, and Billie follows it with a knowing joke.
True though this also came after the attempt by Ruth, when she said she loves Billie in these words, blowing up in her face.
Okay, I read it that Billie was, in fact, saying it to piss Ruth off (the “look how very sincere and innocent I’m being” panel), but I officially stopped trying to understand Billie and Ruth’s relationship a while back, so I’m probably wrong.
That’s just a restating of their well-established dynamic in general. It seems to me that Billie is not being genuine here, that this is a mocking reference to Ruth’s attempt at earnest affection.

I’m skeptical that they figured it out by what we saw after the timeskip.
Nope, I was wrong.
yep, it hurts knowing how That is gonna end
Go to see Mary’s thing seems some.sort of really bad punishment that could traumatised you for life, or at least ruin your afternoon. I’m hoping the thing is so ridiculously serious to become incredibly funny to see.
Super-healthy dynamic, these two.
I hate that i love them
And this is why Jennifer’s so pissed off now. She was so into that relationship that she was starting to be genuine. And then Ruth breaks up with her. “For her own good”. That’s devastating.
Hm, maybe she shoulda cleaned up her act sooner then, how sad for her.
Wouldn’t have mattered because that’s not why Ruth’s breaking up with her.
I’d have more sympathy for her if she wasn’t such a toxic asshole. I’m not arguing with you in two separate threads about the exact same thing though.
I mean to be fair she wasn’t being genuine like thirty minutes ago so this is a pretty recent idea of hers, it seems.
Man, the more this shows how their relationship evolved, the more sense Jennifer’s HARD turn makes to me. I’m still kinda reeling from the revelation that this was like… a week after the kidnapping.

Mary came out the womb lurkin’.
Yeah. Now Mary’s words to Billie have a much more contextual tone in…. context.

Narrator: we all know what Mary wants.
Surely they can go to Mary’s dumb thing, then go to Sarah’s party.
Mary’s so unbelievably fucking exhausting that they’re gonna pass out on the way out of the common room.
oh fuck
Mary actually DOES THINK SHE SCARED RUTH STRAIGHT, doesn’t she?
I reaaaalllly should’ve expected this, but i’m getting a lot more understanding of post-time-skip Jennifer right now
