It's on the tip of my tongue ... I think had a pet mustelid?
Tova:
Pretty sure I’ve seen him before. I think he’s a recurring background character.

Marten: “Oh great, I’ve become a running gag in my own comic’s forums.”
BenRG:
Okay, so here is the question here: Does Millie really want to read books about how her body is constructed or is reading books whilst close to Brun the attractive thing to her? I do like how Brun is struggling to include Millie in what she wants to do. It's obviously very difficult for her and that makes it all the sweeter that she'd going to the effort.
Given Marten's reaction, I'm thinking that the library has a standing policy that visitors (biological and synthetic alike) should not be encouraged to attempt self-repair based on half-understood and possibly out-of-date textbooks!
For some reason I can see Brun asking Marten if there is a rule about making out in the stacks or at the reading tables. Marten's bitter response is that, based on his experience of the students, making out in the stacks or at the reading tables is what they are there for!

This would be funny if someone didn't post something like this literally every time Marten appears these days.

Can we please not use the word "simp". It has enough negative implications (such as the idea that a man would only be kind to a woman to get sex and that the particular woman in question is not attractive enough to be worth being kind to) that it feels slimy to use it.

My apologies. I was unaware of the second half to that.
I don't believe I've ever encountered the second portion. Just the part insulting the guy being a sucker/simpleton.
--- End quote ---
The first half shouldn't be even remotely acceptable to you, either. The idea that the only reason a man would ever treat a woman with kindness is to get in her pants is disgusting no matter how you slice it.
--- End quote ---
Vile, yes. But I have actually met them.
They're misogynistic turds who usually still have the maturity of a 13 to 16 year-old, despite being well into their 20s, 30s, or 40s.

Everyone's met them. They're everywhere. Trust me, you don't need to explain them to one of the people they try to prey on. And it seems my point didn't get across: I wasn't suggesting I didn't believe that these fuckers are real. I was saying that only apologizing because you didn't know about the second half of the definition makes it seem like the first half is fine and acceptable, which it is very much not. Implications matter, so we shouldn't just let them slide.
And, um...what are the implications Jeph referenced meant to be? Learning about bodies -> sex? Is that what we're meant to be thinking about? Did Jeph just call me too pure? :psyduck:

Its pretty bad behavior, yes.
So is making a fire and then intentionally inhaling the smoke.
Doesnt mean people dont do these things.
--- End quote ---
How did multiple people think I was saying I don't think that's real?? I was calling the nasty behavior that our society openly encourages and tells us is deeply engrained in all men disgusting. It needs to be called out as often as possible as deeply revolting and NOT something men are just ~naturally going to do. I wasn't declaring that I'm somehow unaware of the world that we live in. I live here. I am a damn target for men like this. I KNOW.
