WCDT strips 4306-4310 (13-17 July 2020)
Gnabberwocky:
Do you think Tilly and Station are going to be able to stay on Hannerdad's case long enough to follow through with the legislation, or will it fizzle?
I have the feeling it's going to go quiet for a bit, then pop up again in a few hundred strips with some minor law change. This kind of legislation change doesn't seem like something you get done in one go.
Tova:
Yikes!
Okay, that gave me the biggest belly laugh I've had reading QC in some time.

Also, she's witnessed Faye and Bubbles peeling May's face off before, so I doubt a voice box transfer would faze her too much.

She was freaked out just by the sight of a dislocated finger. I'm pretty sure there was another comic where Faye and Bubbles were operating and Roko had her back turned, but I don't have the archive-fu to locate it right now.

Given how long we've been waiting on the story arc of Roko trying to accomplish something arguably much much simpler, I'm not sure Jeph will get done with this storyline in his lifetime. Unless he pulls another Yay ex Machina.

No one here really found it odd that Roko isn't disturbed by the sight of May's open throat?

She might've gotten her freak-out out of the way earlier.
Is it cold in here?:
Welcome RevEddie!

Tilly is persistent to a fault.

True, although this was before the Crushbot incident (as were all other instances of her being disgusted by robotic body parts, I think). Could her level of squeamishness towards other AIs' bodies have gone down now that she's less integrated with her own?
