Inaudible squee
Technically inaudible, I should say. Grace can hear it.

El Goonish Shive news: It finally happened! Tedd looked at Sam while in Seer-mode!
Tumblr media
Hopefully this will lead Tedd eventually finding out that Sam is the reason Grace first started looking into trans stuff, and therefore is the reason Grace was able to inform Tedd that being genderfluid is a thing all the way back during Squirrel Prophet (amazing that it took another MTG tournament storyline to finally get the payoff for that). I also hope this leads to Sam being integrated into the main friend group, thereby leading to him appearing in the story more often.
That would be great, wouldn’t it? I’d love to see him get more regular appearances and have his character fleshed out a bit further. And regardless, I’m looking forward to seeing how Tedd reacts to this information. (Beyond “obvious delight,” that is. Compare this panel to the first few chapters of the comic. Gender euphoria is a hell of a drug (positive). You love to see it.)

other comics which have been running since the early aughts: include a vague reference to stuff from 15-20 years ago and hoping really hard that readers will just remember what's going on
El Goonish Shive: author commentary on each page contains a list of references to every callback on the page with links to the relevant comics. Remember when Ellen had this "second life" dream thing going on in fucking 2004? Here's some handy dandy links to every single comic or sequence of comics which depicted it!

I am hyped for Pokémon Legends ZA for reasons having nothing to do with a new Pokémon game.
Do you have ANY idea how much mileage I'm going to get out of "Pokémon ZA?" Neither do I, but it's greater than zero, I'm telling you that.

The quickest path to true evil is to forget what evil is.
In all of our lives, there will be moments when there are only bad options to choose from. The easiest path is to make excuses. to say the least evil option is good. The more you say it, the more you believe it. And before you know it… You don't see it as evil anymore. You stop looking for other options.
-- Arthur J. Arthur, El Goonish Shive

Awe they've come so far! Tedd has become worthy of trust and learned her friends actual wants and needs. And Sarah has become comfortable with herself and her body enough to enjoy something like this. It's awesome seeing them become friends over the years and such cool people.

reading through El Goonish Shive for the first time, im obsessed with the fact that the author apparently had no knowledge of 2000s Gender Politics while writing, and was just writing what they thought was cool at the time. The comic many people have told me was their trans awakening just happened to stumble into the role of one of the most progressive of the time (ESPECIALLY during the homophobic as fuck 2000s) out of sheer coincidence.

Fashion class!
I'm an expert, you know. Lesson one: Fashion peaked in the eighties. Lesson two… Wait, where are you going?
