Misinterpreted panel three at first as the background face being someone Roz had just had sex with, then processed it was Mary, then thought, “Oh god, Roz had sex with Mary?”
lol she does look scandalized but i feel like ppl would be used to seeing each other change (tho i guess there is a divider/might be too much of a pain to go to the bathroom/public showers to change). tho i suppose other than a ‘partner’ i wouldn’t necessarily want someone to see me put on a bra (not that i wear them mmuch nowadays) unless i was also asking for help lol
My new headcanon: Roz hasn’t so much gotten used to Mary getting in the way of her work, as much as incorporated her whining into it. After all, there’s got to be a market for porn where a young woman’s voice is lambasting the sexy times going on.
No, she actually runs a very classy and popular video essay channel where she discusses sexual themes in classic cinema through a postmodern feminist lens. She just happens to be recording on laundry day.
Mary is outraged because Roz is doing a series on the works of David Lean, and while obviously discussing the homoeroticism in Lawrence of Arabia, has failed to address its subversion gender roles, which Mary considers irresponsible.
Or, yeah, she’s doing Chaturbate/OnlyFans. Is it weird I like my idea better?
Jeremiah
She can perfectly do both of those things. People are multi faceted.
Doctor_Who
Honestly, I could see that from Roz, but I have doubts about Mary’s role in my little scenario.
Some years ago, lo, in the Before Times (before the pandemic hit us), I saw a Vimeo series with a topless college student discussing both sides of various political issues. Sadly, I can’t find them anymore.
Reltzik
Yeah, the both sides thing is kind of out of date. It’s almost impossible to find someone who is willing to present both sides seriously without simultaneously presenting them as automatically equally valid in a way that’s become painfully cliched.
But topless college students, they’re still around.
no more porn on the internet, just porn reaction videos on youtube. which I now realize many of which would also be porn.

“Toby Savage reacts to Heather Saint’s reaction to Ian Iron’s reaction to Roxy Swift’s reaction to Toby Savage’s reaction to Drake Hunter’s reaction to…”
I mean, you’re probably right about there being a market for it, but including Mary in sexy videos without her consent sounds would be a kiiiiinda fucked up from an ethical standpoint. I’d like to think Roz has standards in that regard.
Surely if Mary knows Roz is filming, she knows her complaints will also be recorded. If she wants to avoid that she can easily just go hang out in the student union building for a bit.
Eh, if you know someone’s streaming and you photobomb (streambomb?) their stream, you should kinda expect that you’ll be part of their stream.

OTOH, it’s pretty uncool to be doing that stuff in their shared room. Or really anything that infringes too much on your roommate’s right to use the shared space.
OTGH, it’s Mary and there’s no reasonable way to negotiate workable boundaries.
Mary in the background has probably increased her following. Also we know Mary can get very perverted so she might performatively whine while secretly being okay with it in the hypocritical sort of way.
No, Sarah, no! DOn’t just label every annoying frost “that annoying kid”. Take their picture, and have a “that annoying kid” addressbook entry with their -picture-.
i would think she wouldn’t do it anymore/got reprimanded about it the first time unless ‘solo’ counts as a loophole or like only fans as opposed to something where it’d be considered on the school campus (b/c mary would rat her out in an instnat)
I’m juuuust now realizing Roz and Mary were roomies, it’s pretty comical that Mary manages to still be shocked and appalled after all this time.
Is Roz using a green screen, is this some elaborate RP she’s shooting?
It’s unclear to me, at least. Some people are suggesting it’s something to do with camgirl work, but I’m not as big of a coomer as probably most of the others here, so it’s not really a thing on my radar.
Jeremiah
Yeah it is that. Roz has commented that she has an onlyfans before.
Taffy
Gotcha gotcha. Don’t get me wrong, me and the boys* get together on Wednesday nights to charge our J.O. crystals** like any other group, but I don’t partake of the pay-per-view.
*not exclusively boys, it’s just catchier
**play Fabula Ultima, a really fun tabletop game created by a complete bastard Italian
Nah I was just wondering why she has her number. Walky and Malaya are close enough associated to her I get why they’d be in Sarah’s phone, but Roz seems kinda random at face value. They don’t hang or even have a shared friend group.
Bogeywoman
I am headcanoning that the existence of Roz’s contact info in Sarah’s phone has to do with the Dana backstory. It seems more likely that Roz knew Dana and plausible that she would’ve supported Sarah’s actions.
Segnosaur
Is roz second year or first year? I can’t remember myself.
If she is second year she would have encountered roz during their shared first year. Plus, both of them probably have programs that probably overlap… Sarah because of her legal studies, roz because she seems interested in politics (and they do share one class together I believe… The politics class taught by Roz’s sister)
Taffy
Roz is a first year. I’m not sure how she would have known Dana, a girl who left this college before Roz ever graduated high school.

Are we pretending that the whole Rachael, Roz, Ruth thing never happened?

Roz isn’t changing. She’s in front of a blue screen. She’s camming.

Is Roz doing Chaturbate/OnlyFans from her shared dorm room

Yup, she openly bragged about how well she is doing on it before.

Hold up, when did she brag about it? Did I miss something? I thought she just had the video with Joe that she was open about.
