I was DD at a mdma party once; those peeps were about 8-10 hours in a cuddle puddle. (didn’t partake of the molly, but think i got a contact high anyway)
Later she’ll tell her that the cops already tackled her and there’s no escape anyway. If the cops are all on the take, fighting them is the only justice. Also devesting is morally and ethically required, and Dorothy must wreck Joyce by her own hand in all timelines.
Remember mlk went to jail, no shame in following suit. Try not to get sniped despite that, though. But gays doing crimes is also a noble tradition.
I only consider my comment on the dudes to be a dick move.
I apologize for nothing else because if this goes where we all know it’s going Joyce and Dorothy are dirtbags who I believe deserve any hate directed at them in that moment.
Would I get over it? Most definitely, but in the moment they will be my least liked characters of the main cast and would prob stay that way for a couple pages

If you’ve been cheated on before, but never experienced any of the “isms” I can fully understand being hit harder by this.
The human experience is not universal. Of course your own personal past is going to affect the emotional response you have now.
your comment was basically “lesbians only hurt dudes” which is just a bad take, no one in this story suffers after a breakup which this isn’t necessarily what is happening but realize how little time passes in any part of this comic and how many relationships have swapped during that time, no one cared how many different girls Walky has been with, why the sudden concern now? ~<3
Jay
Technically this would be a “Bisexuals always cheat” thing but also Walky has only dumped 1 chick this whole comic and has been dumped twice then cheated on
Rose by Any other Name
Walky has not been cheated on.
Dorothy fucking Walky does not constitute a reinstatement of their relationship.
Joe might get cheated on depending on what Joyce and Joe have discussed and if in their minds kissing counts.
Also, if Joyce goes to talk to Joe and tell him that she’s going to date both him and Dorothy, then again, not cheating. To cheat requires hiding information from one’s partner. With informed consent and agreement, it is not cheating in any way.
Jay
Joyce would be cheating on Joe here hard stop. There’s no retroactive “teehee i told him after ?” this would be cheating and their relationship would be starting with cheating.
Also, Dorothy and Walky are in a relationship again. They’ve talked about it. Even when Dorothy stopped whatever was about to happen in Joyce’s bed, “I’m with Walky” was one of the reasons.
Yeah, it’s definitely not implied to be a very serious relationship this time around, but Dorothy herself does seem to consider them together. (Though I think it’s unclear if she truly does, or if she was just offering that as another reason she can’t have what she wants yet again. Kind of as a weird self-harming thing, if that makes sense?)
While I’m completely fine with it because this is fiction and I’m here to watch the characters be dramatic and messy as hell, I think it’s fine for cheating (or behavior toeing that line) to hit a bit too close to home. (I personally don’t think Joe will entirely relapse into his old habits, but I guess it’s too early for anyone but Willis to say for sure.)
Also, thanks for apologizing for your comment. Not because I’m personally offended – I think it’s technically wrong, but I can understanding why you might feel that way – but because that takes a lot of guts to do publicly.
I hope you’re doing okay today. ;~;
Jay
I agree it is the wrong take and I was just over reacting. Idk man I just really attached myself to joe ? he doesn’t deserve to have his biggest trauma basically thrown in his face by someone I KNOW isn’t meaning to hurt him intentionally and I lashed out in a stupid comment (i said smth even dumber in the patreon)
I dont think Joe will relapse but i worry about him doing smth self destructive like isolating or smth. I’m doing a lot better now that I’ve had time to stew.
No, I feel you, I do really feel SO bad for Joe in all of this sdkfjsdf. He’s really become such a great character in his own right recently, so as excited as I am for the overall queerness of the comic to be visibly increasing… POOR JOE OMG. (And to a lesser extent Walky? I feel like he’s know the writing is on the wall for a while, though.)
Fingers crossed there’s some way for the characters involved to handle these messy feelings at least SOMEWHAT gracefully.
You can tell this was written during the biden administration because they’re using Woke Gas on the student protests against the current ongoing genocide.

do gay be crimes

And don’t forget to drink sleep, avoid school, stay in milk, and get 8 hours of drugs.
Amós Batista
woa, 8 hours? That’s a good mushroom
DJTsurugi
that is a bad trip. ~<3
Dante
There’s such a thing as “too much” of a good thing. Like 8 hours of mushroom. No, I don’t speak from experience, why do you ask
StClair
cheese. chocolate. lasagna. 🙁
Olofa
As long as the chocolate is served separately from the cheese and lasagna.
StClair
my intent was more “you might think you can’t have Too Much of these, but I regret to inform you”
Dante
Having too much of either cheese, chocolate, or lasagna on top of 8 hours of mushroom (about 3 grams, I’ve heard) is definitely something to regret
Laura
I dunno, yo’, a nice spicy bitter-cocoa molé lasagna with extra sharp cheese sounds just about perfect right now…
Laura
And so long as the mushrooms are the NON-psychedelic kind, and are just tastefully roasted atop the lasagna, I’m still game!

I know Willis always uses exact character quotes as book titles, but perhaps “Be Gay, Do Crimes” could be the title of the 14th book?
Also… *big inhale* …. NOW KISS, ALREADY!

Someone might still say it. Possibly in response to all this. We can only hope.

It was a cliff, and hang time was impressive.

I don’t think I’ll ever forget the bit where Sarandon and Davis talked about the possibility of a sequel (despite the obvious, uh, problem):
“We could have bounced!”

yeah feel sorry about their boyfriends but hopefully understanding. if not some ‘ouroborus’ polycule like walky mentioned
I imagine joe being more ‘upset/affected’ while walky being like “I told you/knew it” and gloat to joyce the first chance he gets
