“Commander, I always used to consider that you had a definite anti-authoritarian streak in you.”
“Sir?”
“It seems that you have managed to retain this even though you are Authority.”
“Sir?”
“That’s practically Zen.”
“Sir?”
“It seems I’ve only got be unwell for a few days and you manage to upset everyone of any importance in this city.”
“Sir.”
“Was that a ‘yes, sir’ or a ‘no, sir,’ Sir Samuel?”
“It was just a ‘sir,’ sir.”
Vetinari glanced at a piece of paper. “Did you really punch the president of the Assassins’ Guild?”
“Yes, sir.”
“Why?”
“Didn’t have a dagger, sir.”
Vetinari turned away abruptly.

Looked at the colour test paper and went "wait, what if I..."
Aka: Doodling around, but even less of an idea what the heck I'm doing than ever before. :D

It's from a webcomic called The Property of Hate, by Modmad. You can read it here for free at jolleycomics.com !
The story is very cool : the TV guy is RGB, the lil' kid is named Hero, and let's say that they're on a world-saving quest that just isn't going right.
(If you speak French, I happen to be the French translator, at TPOH-VF, but first and foremost I'm a fan and love to goof about them two from time to time)
Have a nice read !
Like Dad... Like Daughter
(AKA a game of "Who's the child and who's the adult again ?")
In no particular order :
1 : 10 ideas a minute

2 : Are so Are not

3 : Volleying insults

4 : Humor of a 5 years old (although the child has an excuse)

5 : I don't like my new shoes (and the ensuing tantrum)

6 : Stubborn Arguing like two oxes in a hornlock

7 : Exact Words (bonus points for the unison scream)

8 : Happily screwing over people (though one deserves it)

9 : I have to do everything around here

10 : Oh shit I left the child/adult unsupervised (bonus : featuring the cane)

11 : Being world savvy

12 : Why why why

13 : Close relationship with the ground

14 (or 13 bis) : Spatial awareness of a dead barnacle (though again the child does have an excuse here)

15 : Getting stabbed in unadvisable places

16 : Putting on a show

17 : The obvious one

18 : Quick thinking (bonus points for being directly in succession)

19 : I took a calculated risk but boy am I bad at math

20 : Hoppity-skip scare

21 : Sharing the braincell like two chimps on a bike

22 : The other obvious one

Finale : Whoops I dadded/daughtered subconsciously

RGB and his "I'm Way In Over My Head" hands.




#Gotta love the hourglass side of this :#at first it's the kid who doesn't understand while he's all shifty and shit#and then it's him who's like “I don't understand the world anymore” while the child has secrets#good job Jeebs you outplayed yourself#tpoh#the property of hate#tpoh rgb#tpoh hero#tpoh assok#I love his hands though they're aesthetically very pleasing to look at and very expressive

To the point that everyone can see it and the child is the first to point it out : "Nobody told me to NOT go with you." That comic's right - doing and realizing are two very distinct things.
He does stuff like a fussy parent ("If you don't put a sweater on you'll catch your death !") and then bluescreens when the kid sees him as a father figure. Pick a strugglieren, buddy.
Ladies, gents and thanes : RGB, the divorce energy king of Not Thinking Things Through until they're put on a literal loop of his own doing to come back in his face.
Rereading all of TPOH again. Pretty funny that hero found her first lie straight after her first encounter with that dam butterfly huh. Funny coincidence

I guess RGB subconsciously subscribes to "You broke it, you bought it" no matter how much he decries it. Plus, let's be real, the moment he went "Young lady" on her ("Young lady, this isn't a game of tag !" in chapter 7, which I'm confident can be renamed "Where The Adult Fails To Set A Bed Curfew For The Child" and still be accurate), he was officially doomed.
He's right in protesting not being a mattress : as a dad, his child is already walking all over him, and she wasn't even trying.

Also the fact that it pops up on the page where RGB carries an unconscious Hero to Madras, the page just before the one where he goes "well you're lucky I chose to keep you around for purely practical reasons yessir and you're not that heavy anyway."

Stashing it on my dash for my moirail (he's missing the red ones, and has trouble differenciating yellow/green and blue/purple. Brown, pink and orange are a bit toast for him too)
Finding a colorblind friendly redesign of the rainbow flag has me happy to see a pride flag for once

"Dumpster Gremlin"
"Laughably inefficient plague upon ye" works too.
explain your gender in 10 words or less without using boring words like “male”, “female”, “nonbinary”, “masculine”, “feminine” or “androgynous”.
go!

Hell fucking yes.
Also, personal tip : if you have assholes like this in your vicinity and there's a Legal Problem coming up with them soon for whatever reason, record what they say and write. Keep the phone texts, keep the e-mails, keep the voice calls, ESPECIALLY the ones when they let loose and show they true colors, insult you, or make statements like "I own this" and "Without me you'd be etc", and ESPECIALLY ++ if it's not true, and if they swindled, cheated you out of something and gamed whatever system at your expense.
Show them to whatever authority is legally helpful for your problem.
KEEP THE RECORDS. FOR FUCK'S SAKE, DON'T HESITATE TO PULL A JUDY HOPPS : IT'LL HELP YOU IN THE LONG RUN.
That way, it's not your word against theirs.
It's their own word against themselves.
-Sincerely, an LGBT+ someone who dealt with a bigoted, abusive-in-all-ways (financially included) bitch of a progenitor (and her equally stupid family), who screwed me out of my own furniture while I was studying elsewhere, cheated me out of my money at times, cheated the taxes using me and my siblings, handled me like a savant dog and tried to pass herself for the victim of the abuse she inflicted on all of us (dad included). The moment we showed the records we had from her, she went down pretty quick and even her lawyer had to intervene to rectify her attitude.

Fun thing ! In the two languages I speak natively (English is my first non-native and my 3rd overall for those who ask), Sun and Moon swap genders depending on which language I speak.
In French, as in lots of Latin-based languages, the Moon is gendered feminine (la Lune) while the Sun is gendered masculine (le Soleil), and they are often represented as such.
In German, it's the reverse : the Moon is gendered masculine (der Mond) while the Sun is gendered feminine (die Sonne). Ergo, in Germanic folklore and the Poetic Edda, the Moon (Máni) is often represented as a guy, but with lots of the traditionally feminine qualities usually associated to it (wisdom, caution, change, secrecy, etc), while the Sun (Sól or Sunna) is often represented as gal, but with lots of the traditionally masculine qualities usually associated to it (speed, action, visibility - as opposed to secrecy - etc).

Switch back to French and the genders switch over again. To me, they were already transitionning before any TERF could open their big fat mouth about it.
the moon is a lesbian and she hates terfs

Also adding : "Back then we didn't have all this X, people weren't like that, they had manners, weren't whiny about such small things and knew how to behave."
Darling, 'manners' were beaten into them.
To quote Wolfwalkers' villain to the protagonist's father as an example, "Put manners on that girl, or manners will be put on her."
(In context, it's about a free-spirited girl not conforming to neither a gender role ("girls in the scullery") and a belief system ("wolfwalkers are evil"). But this has applicability to basically anything, from neurodivergences to orientation passing by belief, gender roles or simply lifestyle.)
Back then, if you were different, you were either killed or doomed to be traumatized into insanity because of what was very generously called "therapy", and just boiled down to "lobotomize until they can't advocate for themselves anymore", "Pavloved into giving the 'socially correct' response" or "locked up until catatonic" most times.
Of course you didn't see it back then, sugar : people were terrified for their lives and well-being. It's called "masking", sweetie-pie - a tactic that's as old as the dawn of times, that still happens today, and falls squarely under that little notion called self-preservation and survival.
It's not 'cuz you personally don't or can't see it that it doesn't exist, or else your field of knowledge gets greatly reduced to simply englobe what's directly in front of your nose.
