D'AWWWWWW!

These two are just too precious!


That being said... How many pictures of Hercules does Elliot have in his bedroom? Seems like, no matter how you cut it, his cat WILL be watching him.

I just wanted to say that todays comic was wonderful and I always feel happy seeing support and care in couples. This was delightful and is also showing genuine growth in Clinton. I hope they work out because this is a delight

I think it's just one picture, and we're seeing its reflection in the first panel. Of course, that's only what we've seen *so far*...

Ah yeah, now that you mention it. It does look like a reflection in the 1st panel. That explains the weird gray bar at the top.

I've never been in this particular situation, but in my experience in various others, someone else being obviously anxious makes it much easier for me to chill and gently take charge myself. Clinton's also probably full of endorphins rn lol

Huh?!
Dropping a cat on his naked lap did knock Elliot out of his feedback loop.  A lot of times real problems are easier to deal with then imaginary problems.

(Not a recommendation to try to fix someone else's anxiety by deliberately/intentionally harming them!)

I think this is the first time we've seen him with someone where he knows the other person likes him back. With Emily, he was trying to impress her. And then mostly him trying to get an opportunity to date someone. But Elliot made it clear that he liked him so that probably takes a lot of the pressure off for him.

Plus as someone else said, when someone is freaking out, it can sometimes be easy to take the role of calm in response.

Yes to the first, and I'm... ambivalent on the cut itself.  Mostly I hope it helps her dysphoria.

Not gonna lie, the thought of an AI eavesdropping on me in the middle of sexytime is kind of creepy.

This was unrelated to why I refuse to get an Alexa or wire my place to be a smart house, but now it is.  And yes, I'm aware that my phone can still spy on me, but it's easier to bury that under a few layers of discarded clothing.

Happy to serve.  :-D

I prefered the longer haircut. I think it suited their face better than this particular cut. Maybe Roko should have gone really short? That would have been cool. :claireface:.
And there is always the hair-bath at Union Robotics.

So robot hair doesn't grow (unless submerged in a polymer bonding solution)... unless their is a fashion or vanity reason to change it, most robots probably are happy with their chosen haircut for life.
so why does she own a set of hair clippers?

Would it not been cheaper and smart to get a barber/hairdresser to cut it.

Lmao I find the sensimeter hilarious, and my first thought was, is it fine tuned enough to differentiate between different types of sex? Not all types of sex are rhythmic or thrusty lol

ETA: I’m sure Yay’s got an algorithm for that lmao

I like the friendly interaction between Yay and Roko.  It's a bit of an argument but there's no hostility.

Roko's new do:

Jeph's choice of course, and to add my own two cents worth:
  • Given the view in 4508 and 4560 and now 4570, 4560 appears to be a continuity issue on Roko's hair and the comic number (4600?).
  • I prefer Roko with the longer hair, and I particularly despise this hairdo on anyone, as it smacks of the "total retail Karen" attitude.  I saw it when I worked retail, and it unfortunately holds to stereotype.  I always felt Roko had a bit more empathy; maybe I was wrong.  It's Jeph's choice of course.

This instance of Yay doesn't have tijubas, where some of them in 3418 might; they certainly all have hips...

Considering the size of Elliot, probably don't have to be all that sensitive for his fun times either.

And my first thought was "the Major from Ghost in the Shell." In comparison, Roko differs from Motoko (at least physically) mostly in the material her brain is made of.

Probably. We think. The Major, after all, has some serious identity issues herself. Even excluding (as you should) the execrable live action film that recently pretended to be part of the franchise.
