Not the person you responded to, but for me it comes and goes as a result of OCD. It does hurt, but not terribly. To describe the urge, it's a bit like if there's a big bug on your arm. Once you notice it, it's difficult to not immediately swat it away, and until you do get it off, you're gonna be very aware that there's a bug on your arm. It's pretty much the same feeling, just directed toward hair instead of bug.

It might be totally different for other people, but that's just my experience.

Kase ,

Ah fuck, I worded that poorly. No, talking about it is fine, but thanks for asking! I don't mean the physical sensation is the same, like how you can feel a bug on your arm. Speaking for myself, it's like the mental reaction of "ick there's a bug on my arm, I have to get it off". There's no physical itch or tickle on my skin. I was trying to make that comparison because generally when there's a bug on you, it doesn't bother you if you don't notice it, and you might not even realize it's there for a while. But once you notice it or someone points it out, it'd be hard to just ignore it, even if you couldn't feel it on your skin at all.

As I'm typing this out, I'm realizing that it's possible that not everyone experiences quite as strong a reaction to having a bug on their skin that I do, especially as a person with ocd, lmao. But if you do, well, hopefully this helps!

I wouldn't ever want someone to be able to own a tone/sound of voice. I'm with you there.

But it kinda sounds like they're trying to straight-up imitate her. Like they want people to hear this ai and think it's voiced by johanssen herself.

I don't know if that's true, or if it even makes a difference legally, it's just the impression I'm getting.

I'm not knowledgeable about any of this; any correction is welcome, lol.

Kase ,

the book fair??? mom can I get one of the pointer fingers???? /ref

Kase ,

Ah great, now I have to call my therapist

Timeless (sh.itjust.works)

[panel 1: a large dodo approaches a clean, well dressed vagrant youth sat beside a well fashioned wood and stone building. The youth warily guards a bag holding their belongings and the stick they use to travel with it. The dodo asks “Pardon me, do you have the time?” and the youth replies “yes, it’s -“]...

Kase ,

A dad joke about a dad joke. I like it!

Kase ,

Not an artist, but the hands look fine to me. What's wrong with them?

Kase ,

Are you saying you don't have blood??

Kase ,

The entire world except for the west? I remember that russia said it wasn't them, but were there other governments that said that too? /gen

Kase ,

I remember a version of this, but the last line was "you/I must be god!"

Kase ,

Can confirm, I see you (both) everywhere

Kase ,

Can somebody translate this thread for me?

Kase ,

Oh I just started watching the grumps recently! This is next on my list now, thanks :)

Kase ,

played by children

Are you calling me a child?? /j

Kase ,

Hey, if it was good for you, then good for you. I've done the same for shorter stretches of time, about two years one time. It helped my mental health a lot, and then I came back having the energy to actually get involved and do something.
In case anyone needs to hear it, it's okay and normal to take a break. Or seek support, or whatever you need to do. No lemming is an island, or something like that.

Kase ,

American here, asking genuinely: how was the American revolution unsuccessful? My understanding is that the goal was to make the British go away, and that they did accomplish that in the end. What am I missing?

Kase ,

On a slightly related note, my theory* is that the next step in reincarnation after human is moth, and that's why when people are dying they describe a bright light and a strong urge to move toward it.

*I don't actually believe this, just being silly here :P

    Maybe not in the summer, if you're closer to the equator (E: /j)

    Kase ,

    being able to choose what gendered words I use for myself in russian is a cool way to assert dominance

    Seconded. I started studying Spanish just a few months after coming out as trans. I'd expected all the gendered personal nouns/adjectives to make conversations with new people awkward, but not at all! It gave me the chance to tell them how to refer to me straight out instead of waiting for them to either have to ask or guess wrongly.

    And hell, if using that -o suffix for myself doesn't bring the euphoria every damn time. ¡Me encanta!

    Kase ,

    I was joking, sorry that wasn't clear. (AC = air conditioning)

    Kase ,

    So you're telling me every time I stole my sister's phone and took goofy selfies with it?? Straight to jail???

    Kase ,

    That's a really good point

    Kase ,

    (⁠ ⁠⚈̥̥̥̥̥́⁠⌢⁠⚈̥̥̥̥̥̀⁠)

    Kase ,

    Can we get the orcas after these bastards too?

    Kase ,

    I have a Downloads folder where some things go. :(

    Kase ,

    On balance a net positive, would recommend.

    Seconded. All my homies love LibreTube.

    (At least I think they would, if I weren't the only person I know who uses it. But hey, now there's you! There are dozens two of us!)

    Kase ,

    I can't que, but I can make playlists in libre (android). There's a "save" option under the video that lets me create playlists and save videos to them. We might just be using different app versions if you can't.

    I'm thinking maybe they meant whiney, not sure tho

    Kase ,

    Edit: A better comparison is a racist joke. Even if the "butt" of the joke is "haha that guy is racist", I don't want the N word showing up on my feed, either.

    I personally don't think the comic was wrong, I agree with what chimbalumber wrote in their comment. That said, I do understand, and relate to, the desire to not see jokes involving sensitive subjects or explicit dark humor. (I dunno quite how to word that, but hopefully it makes sense.)

    I won't argue what content should or shouldn't be allowed in this specific community, I'm not super involved here. But I do remember one nice thing we had on reddit was separate subs for stuff like this. Maybe there'd be one comic strips sub where anything was allowed, one that was more, idk, family friendly? Etc. I dunno if we have that kind of thing here yet, or if this is the only (active) comic strip community. But it might be worth a try to look for/create one ¯⁠\⁠⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠⁠/⁠¯

    Kase ,

    Oh cool, thanks!

    Kase ,

    Do you know where? I don't doubt you, I just wanna see this lmao

    Kase ,

    What the FUCK

    Not in a relationship, but I'm a trans man, so I get to hear all the tea from my sister and her college friends.

    Can confirm, men sounds too headache!

    Kase ,

    I think it's probably fair to say people is too headache lol

    Kase ,

    My childhood friends when I used to squeeze the heckin life out of them daily:

    Kase ,

    I mean you're not wrong there lmao

    Kase ,

    It's true. If you remove this antenna, the government will look and they'll think your car is just sitting in the driveway.
