Ok so we have a vague timeline of Faye coming out to her mother just few days ago in comic time. I can't remember how long ago that was in real time but it feels like forever ago.
Then again last year has felt like an eternity for other reasons.

I’m so grateful Jeph is keeping the comic COVID free, tho it does highlight that he’s less interested in bio sci fi than technological. As far as we know, the yeast used for baking, how to treat Marigold’s acne, the psych meds Hanners takes, etc are all the same as in our world. The only big biomedical difference we’ve see is Clinton’s prosthetic hand.
Heck, people still wear glasses, and not just for VR.

TBH, when my vision starts to deteriorate, I'll deal with glasses/contacts, unless surgery was the only option to prevent blindness. I do *not* want my eyeballs cut/lasered/replaced.
Farideh:
Gosh, I'd love to get my eyes lasered. Alas for a lack of funds!

Hard same.
It just seems like I’m a future where there’s AI, something cheap and nutritionally dense like Soylent would be available. It’s weird to me that foodways haven’t changed significantly.
