That's probably one of the best descriptions I've seen of it. Even when politics aren't involved.

My first reaction to Twitter, back in the day, was to think of the scene in Apollo 13 where an irritated Jim Lovell rips off his medical sensors.  Like him, I have no need or desire to provide "the entire Western world" with a constant stream of updates about my inane shit (perhaps literally!) or to read about anyone else's.

Remind me of what Claire was sworn to secrecy about? Or Was it someone else sworn not to tell her?

As far as I remember:
Renee was sworn to secrecy (by Elliot) to not tell anyone about Elliot's crush on Clinton. Renee almost gave it away to Claire by saying "I don't know who he has more of a crush on Brun or.." but she managed to stop herself there. When Claire was telling Marten later that Renee couldn't say who because she'd been sworn to secrecy, Marten suggested that maybe the Elliot's crush was Clinton. And then Claire's loud excitement over the possibility caused Bubbles to break down the door.  :lol:

I don't think there was anything where Clinton swore Claire to secrecy about his crush on Brun. Mainly he just wanted her to not interfere. (Which I guess also involves not talking to Brun for him. But hopefully Dora managed to get into Claire's head that she should just be chill about it).

Personally - as one of those people drawn to this comic because I care about civil rights - I appreciated Jeph's newspost. Also I have a question, but I should probably go to Discuss for it.

BenRG:
As someone said over on Patreon yesterday, it is impossible to study and ship at the same time. This leaves Claire in a considerable dilemma! :laugh:

It's pretty clear that Brun likes spending time with Clinton. You can see this from the way her face lights up in panel 1, which is probably when she sees him entering The Secret Bakery. Was meeting up with Clinton the reason why she dragged herself, half-conscious, out of bed this morning? I find myself wondering just how long those two have been dating without knowing it!

In panel 3, Claire obviously sees the way Brun and Clinton are smiling at each other and was able to do the math. So, the time has come (in order to maintain her self-image) to feign being a somewhat-prima-donna student and make a sudden, tetchy exit and leave the lovebirds to it. I sort of hope that, before she leaves, she lets Brun know that there is no reason why she cannot tell Clinton if she finds him attractive and, indeed, she is allowed to ask him out.


EDIT
*Squints* Oh! That person on Patreon was quoting Jeph's footer! I don't always notice them, hence the confusion.

Sleepdating! I love the concept!

traroth:
They are just being mean to poor Clinton! All he wanted was a macchiato...

(Actually, I like BenRG today's over-interpretation...  :wink:)
