..... Never before have you been in a position to understand the frustration more.

It's: "really, really, old" - as in: "yes, we really have been here before!"

I was trying to imply the frustration of being trans and being expected to explain things over and over. I wasn't invalidating the past... :/
Is it cold in here?:
The formatting for quotes looks like
--- Code: ---[quote=person being quoted]
words
[/quote]
--- End code ---
I almost jumped in and tidied up Aziraphale's formatting but was afraid of misquoting someone in the process.

Yeah, that's what I was trying to do. For some reason, it was formatting the code as text and not reading it as code, though.

OMG yes!
Marten clearly has had a role outside of his relationship with Claire over the last 100 strips, even if it's mainly been to be a good friend to Faye. Claire seems to be heading in the direction of totally failing the Bechdel Test as a character.
Hell, even Padma, who was just a fling, more or less, had more independent agency from Marten while we saw her. She had Elliott-related drama, grandmother drama, the weird fight scenes with Faye, etc. She wasn't a passive vessel, which is the vibe I'm getting off Claire. Or more properly, both of them when together, but we don't get to see Claire much when she's not with Marten.
