This is absolutely a correct move, the mistake was ever pairing them in the first place, especially with it coming off as a consolation prize when Brun turned down both of them.

This is also correct. It was pretty clear Jeph, wasn't sure what to do with her (what wouldn't get him nailed to a wall), and she doesn't have a reason to be present, with no connection to the rest of the cast.

>>150918677
Elliot's central problem is that he doesn't love himself, and that gives him crippling insecurity about his relationships and their honesty. A romantic partner can't fix that, because "well of course you say that you're here for me, that's what your supposed to do, but do you MEAN it!?" It's just a doom loop, and Elliot needs someone detached to tell them to stop moping and generate some self worth.

He was an eternal sadsack that needed constant validation and had no confidence whatsoever. The only thing him and Clinton had in common was having cocks and being unable to fuck Brun, so once they explored those vistas there was no reason to stay together.

Faye at least had shown signs of affection for Bubbles before this scene.

Clinton hadn't shown any attraction to Eliot at all and then Claire basically made him climax where he sat by fantasizing about the two of them hooking up.
Anonymous No.150921105 [Report]

Faye basically had the fanfic thing happen where they were best buddies and literally everyone around them went "BUT WHAT IF THEY FUCKED EACH OTHER TOO!?" Like, Bubbles I get, no hate on the bot, and her unrequited attraction was good story fodder. But Faye had repeatedly said she 1: wasn't into girls and 2: was definitely not into robots, so having her just change orientation with no justification beyond "she likes Bubbles" was fanfic logic, but by the actual creator of the thing. Single Target Sexuality bullshit.

It's also another case of Jeph not wanting to hurt his characters, so instead of having the "sorry, you're near and dear to me but I don't wanna fuck you" chat which would have been some great character work for both of them (and also, you know, relevant to his audience), we got "great news, the nanites reset my brain and I want to fuck robogirls now!"

Real talk anon. First, you should talk to a therapist, I'm just some guy on the internet who isn't educated on human brain stuff and is not completely over their own self loathing, let along knowledgeable about yours. But I understand a general principle is that literally all of us have reasons to hate ourselves, but healthy minded people don't give that focus, they give what they want or need to do focus.

That's not always great, because often you want ice cream and do not do what you needed to do, wash the dishes, but the important thing is just go "oh, I still need to do dishes" not "you stupid motherfucker the dishes are still dirty, I'm a dumb fuck that can't do basic shit." Just get on with life, even if you still don't do the dishes, you move on to whatever else without the self loathing. And it's just like building or tearing down any other habit, every time you acknowledge a thing without specifically hating yourself for it is a victory, and it lessens in frequency and impact over time.

Relationship stuff is broadly the same but you have other peoples headspaces to worry about there, and it's more about understanding that they just aren't thinking about you nearly as much or as in depth as you are. And even when they do, and lie to say that they weren't bothered that you were late or whatever, they're telling that lie because that's what they want reality to be, and you just gotta let it be real.

And, of course, it really fucking helps if you can identify something worthy that you're doing, in the same way money helps you not be depressed that you can't make rent, and that's another habit too. Both identify worth in your day to day and do something worthy, no matter the degree of worth. Even the dumb things that you do to avoid doing something can still be meaningful. Give likes to videos despite the algorithm watching, whatever. Or do the fucking dishes. I'm bad at dishes.

Much in the same way that damn nearly every brain surgeon has a god complex that blurs the line between objective merit of their highly skilled training and their pursuit of that skill precisely so that they can feel that control, most therapists/counselors/etc. are incredibly invasive busybodies who would be ramming their nose into other people's business even if it wasn't their day job.

I don't think Jorph has any desire to break them up, I think that he's just accidentally annihilated any and all of their chemistry because Claire has become more and more unlikeable over the years.
In addition, ever since he had the universe of the comic start bending over backwards to make Claire never ever be wrong she's naturally become less of a character. Marten has nothing in common with her because she's become someone who is Always Good.

These day he serves no purpose but to be 'adorably' less good / competent / driven / right than Claire.

There was a timeskip that implied the engagement went on for maybe a couple years. Enough time for >>150922813 and for Claire to graduate college, and a bunch of characters changed their hair.

But yes, it was deeply unsatisfying. The event really should have just ended the comic on a nice even number of pages and a solid conclusion that would have brought the story into a neat full circle. But Hacks has a mortgage to pay.

I think that's bias, anon. From you not being retarded.
In reality, Claire hasn't *intentionally* been held accountable since that altercation she had with Clinton over Emily. For years the comic has done somersaults over itself to ultimately make her mistakes *Completely Understandable* or *Actually Not a Mistake*.
Even in this instance Marten was framed as making the mistake by getting drunk so that Claire could suddenly become nurturing and Rise to the Occasion (tm).
You're sensing how people *should* react to her behavior and the negative impacts on Marten, but that's not how Jeph and his paypigs see it.

Gotta roundly disagree with that. Tai and Dora's relationship was always distinctly secondary in the ongoing plot, and never got any reckoning with the difference in life experience and expectations between the former hedonist and the current insecure neurotic. Granted, that happens to a lot of couples... who divorce once those issues finally come up.

It’s less about Tai and Dora and really more about Marten witnessing his old ex settle permanently with another person and being entirely at peace with it. I think that was right around the time he had or was about to move to Cubetown too, opening a new chapter of his life that mirrored his original move to Northampton, thus bookending the story of the original main character. And it was an excuse to gather basically the entire cast into one location for a grand social event before letting them all go their separate ways.

Clinton is probably still trying to maintain some level of friendship, I doubt he wants to just never talk to Elliot again, and he’s probably been replying to these emails. But Elliot has always been the type of guy to wallow in his own self pity and no one can really just talk him out of it. I don’t know what sort of closure Clinton could offer a guy like him that he would actually accept. I doubt Clinton would know either.

Given that Eliot seeks external validation for literally everything, it's probably a combination being a way to constantly get a drip feed of praise and the only thing staving off a constant assumption of negative perception by others.

>the subject of fitness reminds Keph there’s a yoga studio that Marigold etc go to
>so he does somevpages that takes place at the yoga studio
>he remembers Marigold is a vtuber so most of the conversation at yoga is about that
>he remembers Aurelia is also a vtuber so he draws a page about what she’s up to
>the characters closest to Aurelia are Clinton and Yay so they’re there
>they have to be talking about something something so Clinton talks about breaking up with his boyfriend
>we get a page flashing back to the breakup because he realizes there should be a page of the breakup

There’s no rhyme or reason. It’s not going anywhere. An idea pops into his head and he just draws it.

Self-defense. The prior strip explicitly lays out the reality of the situation we're about to see, mainly through panels three and four:
>himbo is continuing the problem behavior after the break-up
>himbo objectively needs a therapist because a third party says so
>twink is still supportive of the himbo's search for mental healthcare
If you open with the break-up strip instead, there's at least two panels in there where his core audience could pause their reading and go "wow, this seems like an abusive relationship, so this is actually a derogatory portrayal of gays and I'm gonna have to riot until some hands get stabbed." Starting with the post-mortem avoids that risk by defusing all the drama in advance.

I'm actually more confused now. The previous page made it sound like Elliot is still bothering Clinton, but this page almost implies he was trying to sabotage the relationship in a way that he wouldn't feel like the bad guy for ending it. But admitting that in the last pain also ruins that, so this is some of the strangest way to write this that I can possibly imagine. I think Harph is juggling meds or something.

No no. I recognize Elliot’s behavior. It doesn’t make any sense because he has a mental illness. Anxiety disorders can just be like that. Elliot is never satisfied and always finds a way to be anxious no matter what because his brain is wired wrong. So when he gets something he thought he wanted, he just twists reality to find a new thing to be upset about.

As someone who had a huge alcohol problem I had that period. Especially early on when you're figuring out how to be sober, a lot of people (with or without realizing it) often make things really difficult or uncomfortable. As a defense some people (like myself) develop an abrasive instinct to enforce your boundaries since many people otherwise won't actually listen to you.
All that said then, sometimes it's easy to overreact when someone is being obnoxious and ignorant even they don't deserve it. Old habits die hard.

Very importantly, too, having mental problems doesn't suddenly make you immune to doing shitty things.

Sven can't be brought back because he's had a lot of sex, which aside from provoking envy from Jeph, means he's similar to players/pickup artists, who tend not to have high opinions of feminism.

Lots of similarities between therapists and chiropractors.
A good chiro will fix what's wrong with you in a couple visits and give you exercises to do at home so it doesn't happen again, content with the knowledge that you'll probably come back to their office in the future if something else goes wrong. A bad chiro just cracks your back and says "see you next week."

How I feel about therapists vs psychiatrists honestly. Therapists feel more useful for temporary issues. "My dog just died, I'm having trouble handling it." "My girlfriend and I are having strife." "I'm struggling with cutting back on this thing."

Psychiatrists are who people should be going to if they have long term problems. They can also prescribe you medicine which you may really freaking need, but therapists can't.
Anonymous No.150946818 [Report] >>150946954 >>150948388

The way I've always seen it is that therapists are for talking through an issue that you can't get outside your head enough to view with an outside eye, and for talking through ongoing interpersonal stuff. Some people want them for the ongoing difficulties of life, sometimes because they don't have friends that aren't dipshits or otherwise can't trust for an honest intelligent conversation, or themselves aren't intelligent enough to see their issues through different facets. If you go to a therapist and repeatedly say or think "that's what I was thinking!" you don't need a therapist, you need to trust yourself.

Therapists aren't the profession for curing people, that's psychiatrists. Psychologists are for determining that you're crazy, what flavor of crazy it is, and treating your for craziness. The problem with both therapists and psychologists is that a lot of them are more willing to tell you "come back next week!" than "you need more help than I can provide, go to the next tier up".

I'm going to be pedantic because this is an issue that genuinely bothers me. Psychologists are academics who study the function and processes of human cognition, behavior, and consciousness. Psychiatrists are doctors who diagnose and treat mental disorders. Psychotherapy is clinical methodology designed to help people beneficially alter behaviors, emotions, and patterns of thought based on psychological principles. There are no "tiers," they're different professions that overlap in specific subfields.

There are both academic and clinical psychologists, especially in the US. I was using tiers loosely, though I will assert that therapy, psychology, and psychiatry definitely have an ascending order of required education in that order (even if the latter two are both usually Doctoral), and that's what I was referring to. No one says psychotherapist outside of professional circles, because that sounds like a Psycho Therapist (not to be confused with The Rapist).

Clinton has always been able to afford a better robot hand, and has always chosen not to because he thinks vintage robotics are aesthetically cool. For a while he was purposefully walking around with no artificial skin on his hand and the joints exposed, until he got too much gunk in the hand and it broke, so Faye convinced him to wear a sheath (the Doylist explanation for this change is that it’s easier for Hacks to draw a white glove than it is to draw a cool robot hand).

So, are we just gonna keep the comic rewinded to the past now, or is it gonna return to the “present day” in Aurelia’s kitchen soon?

I’m sure this event isn’t all that far back, but the comic moves at such a fucked pace that it can take a whole year and hundreds of pages in real time just to cover a canonical weekend. And we haven’t seen Elliot or Clinton in a long ass while so they probably broke up like a week ago in comic time. Which, actually could fuck up the timeline quite a lot, since Yay only just resurfaced recently and this breakup is probably pre- Return of Yay. Hell, this event is probably happening before Ahn moved to Massachusetts.

Doing a flashback like this makes shit more confusing than usual and I hope he wraps this up quick. The breakup did not need to be shown in the first place, but stretching it out beyond the first page is just continuing to make things worse. If he switches to a whole new perspective outside of Clinton like to Cubetown next, I’ll feel even more lost.

It was not that good back then, but it also has gotten worse. Somehow it keeps drilling to new rock bottoms over and over.
