WCDT strips 4241-4245 (13th April to 17th April, 2020)
Potato Farmer:
Lately I've been having moments where it feels like my body is more a vehicle I happen to inhabit than a true extension of myself. In particular when I'm talking with people in the physical world, as I realize that when they communicate with me they're looking at this physical face which to them represents me.
I don't actually dislike it but I agree with Brun that having a body is... weird.

Jeph says "subtext?"
I say "Innuendo and out the other..."

Speaking for myself, I've been sort of coming to terms with the realization that I'm autistic over the last few years, so I don't know if I can say how "typical" it is, but a large part of it can be summed up as a very generalized fundamental feeling of "there's something wrong with me." Sometimes, this manifests as a weird contemplation of the strange absurdity of reality and existence, and sometimes, it manifests as everything, everything, everything, everything, everything running through my head all at once and I can't deal with it.
I don't know if that makes sense. It is a concept and a feeling that is very hard to put into words.

Reality is often absurd but I rarely consider it to be an error on my end, honestly.
Perfectly Reasonable:
Dang.
Brün has dysphoria too?
Dang.
And now I'm waiting for another prompting from Imaginary Brain Renée:
"Say Millie-- Wanna do brunch again tomorrow? Maybe try that French dessert?"
