Who reads this?

Why does that white boy have nigger lips?

He's trying to be based

He wears makeup because he's nonbinary, he's nonbinary so he can grab minority status despite otherwise being a straight white guy, and also because the association of makeup with queer guys means women drop their guard around him, making it easier for him to drug and rape them.

when they started school 3 months ago pronouns weren't a thing

Carla is now openly trans and retconned into always being as such, which means Mary has been incredibly accepting and tolerant for a supposedly hateful bigot.

I genuinely want the worst for everyone in this comic.

>when they started school 3 months ago
You mean 10 years ago.
>Carla is now openly trans and retconned into always being as such
Was there anything in DOA that indicated otherwise?
Or do you mean retconned from being Ultra Car in Shortpacked?

>You mean 10 years ago.
not in comic-universe I don't

In-universe? Not directly, but a lot of the innuendo doesn't make sense if everyone knows she's trans. Granted, the issue here is metatextual regarding how Willis handled Carla since the start of the strip.

>not in comic-universe I don't
But that's how the sliding time-scale works in the comic.
It's always the year each comic was posted in.
We had a recent childhood flashback that referenced Frozen even though that came out after the comic started.

You want them to be banished into the Funky Winkerbean universe?

Worse, the crankshaft universe

But... that's the same universe as Funky's

It's parallel to it

It's the same universe but they have different timescales.

>He wears makeup because he's nonbinary
Isn't it funny how the types looking to break gender stereotypes end up reinforcing them?
He like/does both guy/girl things, so he's nonbinary. This character can't just be a guy that likes makeup; that's a girl thing.

I don't get why this character is in the comic.

Oh right, Dumbing of Age is a tire fire.

It's an issue inherent to depicting a nonbinary person in a visual medium. What makes a person nonbinary is how one relates to the gender spectrum. However, one can't really depict such an internalized decoupling visually, at least not without significant stylization of presentation, which in turn means that visual depictions of nonbinary people usually default to "is X but does Y thing."

It’s the easiest way to communicate that he is mentally ill.

ikr?

It probably doesn't help that Willis can't draw

>2,500 patrons for this shit
I don't understand how It's Walky and El Goonish Shive and Questionable Content and the other shitty webcomics from the early 2000's are still going. Are people still invested in these?

They're all Woke as fuck and that has an audience.

ironically pvp which started before even penny arcade is the one anyone barely remembers

Hey, EGS ain't shirty

Why is Walky glaring at Joyce?

I still can't do the they/them shit. It's just stupid.

She's really cute though

who is? The NB Thing?

Personally saying they/them comes naturally to me so I don't get the big deal. I don't understand why someone would be more comfortable always being called that, but whatever.
I don't read the comic but Joyce has a really cute design and I want to cum on her face

Nonbinary is the most autistic fucking label zoomers have come up with yet.
Doesn't help its the patron label of white people not being gay enough to actually be in the LGBT community but still wanting the brownie points.
