If feel like we're close to a strip where Brun gives one of those "I am who I am." speeches that jeph's characters give from time to time.
Yay! More fancy backgrounds.
Yes it is a sweet truck.

Debatable, with the whole "didn't know about renters insurance" thing.

This is probably about functioning in daily life, being able to work, manage meetings, such things. Not organisation on a higher level, like knowledge about certain insurances
This world be typical for autism. Many autistic people have really strict daily routines. Improvising is exhausting and often difficult.
Being unorganised means making mistakes, like forgetting to shower.

I tend to agree, though I feel compelled to point out that showing emotions like alarm isn't really her thing.
Thrillho:
Whether Brun is written as being on the spectrum or not, the recent arrival of a number of people who either are on the spectrum or have some expertise in the area shows something which I had kind of forgotten about relating to QC.
QC, the comic, is to me largely about normalisation for those on the fringes of society. Put-upon minorities who deal with shit on a daily basis. QC lets these people be themselves in a wider social circle, not as saintly, role model characters but as actual people with thoughts, feelings, grey areas, pros, cons, admirable qualities and faults.
QC is, for those of us who fall into one or more of these minority groups, a port in a storm, a place where we can get a 'slice of life' comic where that life may actually have some semblance of accuracy to ourselves.

And that has been Jeph's strong suit in making this comic for over a decade now. Character relation is something that makes a work beloved.
