Oh, and maybe then they just shrug and say "let's date, that actually sounds fun".

I mean, doing everything associated with dating up to and including making ill-considered body art purchases declaring their connection without realizing it would be entirely in character for Beeps and Mille.
Farideh:
New comic.
Having a space telescope tattoo/spray would be quite cool.
_Islanio:
I've been out of social media since Orkut, except for WhatsApp, that's useful in my job, and some internet forums, and I feel like I'm not losing much.
Also, few years back, I considered tattooing the symbol of a vacuum tube (a penthode, to be more specific). Glad I didn't.

Beeps and Mille fit in well with the rest of the characters in this comic then! - some of whom are notoriously oblivious at times :-D
"Slow-burn realisations" are a thing (a funny thing!) with Jeph's characters.

The only non-forum social media site that's even really worth visiting is tumblr. It's a damn sight easier to curate your experience on it than most of the others I've tried. And a sizable chunk of what's on the other ones (especially tiktok) is lifted directly from tumblr[1]. It's just a shame that the new owner(s) is/are trying to broker a deal to bring in new users through Disney and other fandom promises[2].
[1] Yes, I'm aware there's several screen caps of tweets on tumblr. That one's probably a more even exchange between the two. Possibly imbalanced when considering most of the more annoying tumblrites migrating to twitter after the 2017 tumblr titty ban. And they're rehashing 2015 tumblr discourse.
[2] I don't have all of the details, but source: The New Yorker
EDIT: Seperated out the pertinent info ftom the blog post it took too long to find during break.
