  • As a woman, I look at “Body Type A or Body Type B” and think “Well, I’m a woman, not a Body Type B, and isn’t it kinda misogynistic that the secondary option is the female one? Like A+ for Men, B- for Women?”

    This really pissed me off, I have to say. Why are you calling the “secondary” option “the female one”? To me that seems a bit presumptuous.

    If I have body type B with he/him pronouns, are you saying something about my body? Is it too “feminine” for you?

    Honestly, you seem to be looking for something to complain about. The developers have taken an extra step to try to be accommodating and inclusive and your complaining about the order the choices are listed in… Smh














  • [sorry for the wall of text rant below, I know this is just a comic we’re talking about here lol]

    At least in Canada I know this is one of the most important annual campaigns for non-profits to bring in operating funds.

    And, the Walmarts (for example) that have a manager that are into the fundraising bring in way more than the ones where the manager doesn’t care… Mostly because the cashier asking greatly increases the amount of donations.

    I get that the business doesn’t do it out of the goodness of its non-existent, corporate heart - and gets tax breaks or whatever - but it really does help the non-profits.

    If I had my own comic strip, I’d do a rebuttal:

    Cell 1: person standing at cash, cashier says, “would you like to donate to non-profit organization ABC today?”

    Cell 2: person rants: “you know, this is what’s wrong with the world today. Faceless corporations are acting like charities and taking more of our hard-earned money so they can get tax breaks and not actually contribute anything to society. I’ll donate at home and get the tax break myself, thank-you-very-much!” cashier: “uh huh, that’ll be $23.45”

    Cell 3: [6 months later] person sitting at a desk: “alright, tax time, just gotta fill out these forms. Donations? Right, donations, donations… Hmm…”

    Cell 4: [shows tax form with a prominent field of “Donations” and a big “$0”]
