Minzoku Bokumetsu

are there actually any straights besides Mary tho

Jim Avery

That's the Mary we know and... know.

el

On the bright side, maybe their shared hate for Mary will lead them into some kind of laundry-like frenzy

Buck Caldwell

Same. I must be a filthy damned casual.

MrShoggoth

I was raised Catholic and never knew anyone like Mary growing up, but once I was on the internet and started running into her type online it wore me down and pushed me away from religion. This is a handy reminder to me of why I dislike her brand so much.

P J Upton

Panko breadcrumbs are a brand thing

Andrea Andrew

Ag, the exact person who would support the ICE Raids and fascism in Los Angeles. Seems like Dorothy can now regain her confident morality. I hope they both join Jocelyn in protesting. Go all Bonnie and Claire.

Buck Caldwell

Oh wait - PANKO. OK, now I get it, although how Joyce would is beyond me.

darklion

Oh, Panko is the play? Weird reach. Considering Panko is Japanese I wonder how Joyce hears about them, never mind internalizing it to that extent.

Maybeeus

Earlier this morning i felt a chill in the air, an ill omen and thought "hey it's been awhile since we last saw Mary." It's also been a bit since we had our last meteor impact and it's been awhile since the last mass extinction event! It's been a long time since a lotta shit happened and life is about enjoying the time you've got when horrible shit ISN'T happening. It's about savoring the moments in your life where Mary isn't around. And thus our course is set for Dunn Meadow where i'm sure nothing awful will happen.

Rubia

I'm for this so long as things don't end in a bloody shootout with the coppers.

Shane Wegner

Maybe deducing what the sign says is the key? Beyond my early morning reach.

Packy Anderson

I mean, you can get Panko bread crumbs in most groceries. It's used in a lot of non-Japanese recipes. I have no problem believing Joyce knows about them.

Grace Serenity

God, even her insults are terrible! Has anyone used Pinko in a nonironic way since the 70s? Mary's parents probably weren't even born back then!

TobyTura

are those the embers of the old (admittedly performative, before) white ally dorothy? is she returning to me? politics-minded, driven righteous ambitious dotty??? PLEASE???

HenryVolt

My go to response will always be "I'm on my own side and that's the side of being against whoever is for carelessly murdering civilians."

Andrea Andrew

Something about Mary. Mary, Mary. So many references. Keep that lamb away from her.

Harold

@Toby (she-they): Mary has that effect on people. So, she *does* have value. The value of people coming away from every interaction with her, no matter how short, and thinking, "Holy fuck, whatever *that* was, I need to be the exact opposite."

Ragtime

Sarah, Joe, Sal, Jim, Jason, Joycelyn was, Ken and Amber.

Astariel

Well, looking at the main cast list there's also Walky (provisionally), Amber, Sarah, Sal, Lucy, Jacob, Roz, Jason, and Tony.

Harold

@Rubia: Hopefully Dorothy's and Joyce's laundry bags contain their plot armor

TobyTura

mary is so stereotypically and outlandishly bigoted it activates sleeper agent white libs. which is also probably the only good thing she brings to the table

Grace Serenity

Panko is a pretty common ingredient. I imagine her mom or someone in the house watched Food Network.

Maybeeus

Thinking back to the pride banner on tumblr and how it had almost all of the cast and i could only confirm about five straight characters on it those being Sal, Joe, Jacob, Lucy and finally Sarah. But everyone listed there is under watch still You Never Know. edit: others were more observant than i and not following the list, there is a good chance that every single person i listed will no longer be straight by this years end. We'll be working with Roz and several characters who have appeared in like, twenty strips max.

IAmDeltaS

Oh Mary. :/ Also I didn't know she knew that Joyce was an atheist (and apostate) now

Harold

Premarital pinko-panko

E

Maybe Amber/AG will have a revelation regarding cops and kick some ass. Idk. But I don’t think there’s been enough buildup for this type of conflict, the way Willis tends to pace these.

Maybeeus

Dorothy drifting further left is like in shonen manga when certain cast members outside of the MC start getting weaker so the author drops a new mid-arc powerup to keep them back in shape. She's about to finally reach Super Socialist and vaporize Mary with a single energy blast.

Dan Rabin

Mary may know, or she may have been addressing Dorothy.

E

Someone who has read more Lenin than me can make a better reference to the whole decades happening in weeks thing, because I feel like recent events and the comic buffer are going to be really putting a strain on the sliding timescale, ever since the “Jocelyne is coming to campus to protest” storyline began. I’m really curious how Willis is managing all this.

E

To be fair, she probably thinks the normal Christians on her floor are apostates too

Megh

Fortunately for Willis, DOA doesn't have to fully conform to the logic of our reality. Because DOA takes place on earth, whereas we live in hell

E

Gotta say this comment goes great with the Joyce face in your pfp

Megh

Oh agreed, my pfp makes me look a little crazy which is the point of course

Kazo

She thought Mary said 'panko'

Ph

panko

E

My prediction (not that I’m any good at these) is that since this protest storyline was probably born with the anti-genocide encampments in mind, any main cast conflicts related to it will be a slow boil, rather than resembling the more recent shit happening with ICE vs people with a conscience. But the Incelerator will definitely be there.

Kazo

Oh man, if this somehow leads to Joyce beating the crap out of Mary for misgendering Jocelyne I will die happy.

Dan Rabin

I like the way both Dorothy and Joyce's body language in panel 1 has them recoiling from Mary and her outta-my-way gesture. Dorothy has finally unfolded her arms after two entire strips of their protection. Dorothy's solo panel is her core Voice of Reason: much more comfortable for her than what she and Joyce came there to do. I note that Joyce's response is in terms of Mary's personal affront to her family member, whereas Dorothy's response is an appeal to principle and reason. Alas, Mary likes personal confrontation and thumbs her nose at reason—aside from complaining about pinkos whilst garbed in pink.

Beck Chonigman

You know her Evangelical ass is only doing this to worsen the bloodshed so their stupid Jesus Apocalypse would happen sooner. She'd probably even gleefully agree if pointed out and, idk, brag about going to heaven while everyone else suffers hell on earth.

Sajuuk-Khar

Kristi Noem origin story-ahh bongo

Jeremy AR

I am sure the comments will be completely normal about this very sensitive hot button issue.

Jeremy AR

Honestly i totally see Mary idolizing the puppy shooting freak.

Jeremy AR

I mean kind of the point that make her stop wanting to be president was Raidah comment about then being war criminals and bombing people so she always cares about that.

Jesse

These damn straight people, coming over here and menacing our law-abiding queer protesters. Go back to Straightistan!

Smoochie

I know she’s so outlandish it’s ridiculous but I unfortunately live in Florida and…I gotta tell ya. She doesn’t fall *too* far off the mark.

Jasmijn Wellner

I think she was calling Dotty an atheist and Joyce an apostate

Jasmijn Wellner

What if we kissed in the laundromat and we were an atheist and an apostate

Lyman Green

My thoughts exactly exactly

Harold

@Smoochie: Florida Woman Accidentally Insults Breadcrumbs

L2theBell

If she ever finds out, Mary’s gonna be so upset to learn she just gendered a trans woman correctly.

Harold

Wait, what does the little yodeling guy have to do with this? /j

TobyTura

It's taken a big backseat during her identity crisis though! I miss it- even if a lot of it felt performative with no true understanding behind it. Really hoping her self discovery leads her back to practicing it, but like, authentically

TobyTura

Lmao I live in Arizona i feel you. Typically see it in the older crowds tho

TobyTura

willis my friend pretty pls approve my comment on main site so i can share my playlist with the world *fluttering eyelashes*

Alexandra Falk

Impressed that Joyce knows what panko are. Doesn't seem like she'd have eaten the kinds of foods that are traditionally encrusted with them growing up (instead of smaller, italian-style breadcrumbs).

tifani

I want Mary and Rachel in an ethical philosophy class together. (They’re not allowed to drop out).

Genevieve

Like... it's not worth it for her to be horrible to Jocelyne **just** so she can get her ass beat? Probably??

aran

just realized "pinko" sounds a lot more like "panko" if you say it in the obnoxiously overdone drawl that Mary definitely has

Packy Anderson

@Megh, and, since hell isn't real, neither are we.

Alexandra Falk

truly a beautiful multiculturalism can be achieved, through bread
