As a side note, I’m furloughed along with the federal government. (I’m a scientist. Not quite a rocket scientist, just a satellite physicist. That’s a lower rung on the brain ladder.) So I’m finding myself with some extra free time. I’ll try to make some extras for the comic. Although I have to admit, it’s hard to keep to a schedule when one is unemployed. I haven’t even shaved for a week…

Roger: Jacob, I thought that I saw a drone flying around... Do you think Joey was being watched?
Jacob: Yeah. Yeah, we should get moving. I think...I'm going to need help.
Lola: I heard your treatments went well. How do you feel?
Caera: Feel? I feel...
Jacob: Yeah. Yeah, we should get moving. I think...I'm going to need help.
Lola: I heard your treatments went well. How do you feel?
Caera: Feel? I feel...
Wow. Jacob finally appreciates his company. Didn’t think that day would ever come.
And it’s somehow… cute.
Sorry to hear you’re one of those affected by the furlough. I hope it all gets fixed soon.
I keep thinking as I read this, “Not the blank eyes, not the blank eyes!” But I get this uneasy feeling….
Sorry you’ve been furloughed :[ The comic is still excellent!
Fuck this shutdown bullshit. Good luck to you.
😛 to London and Washington both.
Also: You might want to encode the quotes in that title tag (title=”Polite people immediately say, “I feel fine, how are you?””). Or bug the software developers to fix it.
Thanks, Sidhekin. Fixed.
Satellite physicist?! I’m jelly. I graduated with a physics degree in ’93 and there were no physics jobs to be had, so I went into IT and eventually InfoSec.
Sorry to hear you’re furloughed tho. It totally sucks that our pols are complete a**hats who can’t get their sh*t together to keep our government running.
Fishes rot from the head first…look what’s at the top!
There is a new cultural divide in this country: Not based on race or class. It is between those who notice a government shutdown and those who don’t.
