Carla finding out how the rest of the world sees her family and it's not good just cuz they accept and love her deeply.

Logibear

Oh, please can the elevator break between floors. I would very much enjoy a long conversation here

Fart Captor

Messed up that Carla is being forced to think about things that happen to other people 😔

Quickly, Carla! Solve all the world’s problems with your wealth and giant brain!

Harold

{"Should I offer to buy her a new TV? No, fuck, that'll make it look even more like I'm rubbing my family's wealth in her face. But if I can afford it, why the fuck shouldn't-- FUCK, this is hard"}

Dan Rabin

Carla grows by reining herself in. Asma isn't being snarky—so there's restraint on both sides of the elevator. I like Carla's "I.. I know I know" getting quieter in separate balloons. "Carla... getting quieter" sounds so strange.

this strip is incredibly good. i like the angle it goes for here where carla has to grapple with like, feeling class consciousness, and recognizing that not everyone can grab a new flatscreen off the rack with their blood money trust fund. also i had the idle joke pop up in my head of "that flatscreen was the love of asma's life" but then i remembered that we now actually *know* what she loves (bowling yuri and alice), and that makes me happy. this strip does a lot and it's all great.

DramaQueen

Thank goodness its not another Danny making everyone unhappy strip.

More fallout that her parents are at least partly responsible for. Carla probably had the immediate thought of offering to help Asma out, but would she respond like Leslie did? It should be an interesting talk when she finds the courage to bring it up with her parents. *cheers Carla on!*

Damn...

GundamBradley

Asma, nice to see her again, of course.

Tessea

It's harsh, but I really do appreciate we're getting honest character development for Carla.

GundamBradley

That could really go either way. Asma's situation isn't as immediately tied to Ruttech as Leslie's is, and is something that also directly impacted Carla. Carla just has the money to address it. In any case, it's not 1:1, at least, but it's a valid question.

Tim Starliper

Yeah - it's almost like, I understand each of those words, but putting them together like that makes no sense.

Wednesday Sophia

really excited to see how carla comes out changed from this arc

Jack Deeth

hang on did the cops break her TV or did she hurl the remote through it after that zoom call with her parents

Look, whether anyone likes it or not, MANY of the world's and many individuals' problems can be solved with a swift application of money. Carla rejecting her money isn't going to serve any useful purpose but WITH the money she can make it rain and solve other peoples' problems, including possibly the ethical problems with the source of her cash.

Gale Tazzin

ohhh this is the First Post-Protest Asma Strip before the buffer edit, isn't it

Gale Tazzin

and it's a tacit acknowledgement that the Muslim character has been dealing with the same problem as the queer characters, off-panel and forgotten by the others. this would be especially poignant in the unedited alternate universe where they didn't invite her to karaoke and bowling (obviously I'm glad we got to see her struggles on-screen instead. and it's still poignant, especially now that it slots into Carla's reckoning of privilege instead of Dorothy's)

Shane Wegner

Today on ACAB Theater: “OK Greg, I gotta ask- what’s with you and smashing TVs?” “They’re unpatriotic. They had it coming.” “Sure. But why specifically the TV though?”

Shane Wegner

Islam has a concept called sadaqah that is in the ballpark of helping out when bad stuff happens, so it wouldn’t be completely foreign to Asma. It might be surprising to see Carla spontaneously develop an intuition of the concept though.

It’s really an interesting thing to think about. That people like Carla’s parents can be nice and kind and loving— we’ve seen them and they seem like genuinely nice parents— but they’re still billionaires and we know their corporation gets up to some dirt. That dichotomy is interesting to me. Which, I suppose even finding that interesting is a form of privilege. What’s interesting is that I think that it’s true for everyone on any level— it’s so much easier to be kind and generous to people you know. Like I know working class people who are very nice and supportive to their immediate family and friends but have a “screw the rest of the world” mentality, but it doesn’t matter because they don’t have a lot of resources and they’re doing what they have to do to get by. But you take that same attitude— a very common attitude that most people have at least a version of— and apply it to a billionaire, and they are basically a super villain at that point. And let me be clear: that’s true and it should be true. I don’t think there should be billionaires at all, and if they do exist, they need to be held to a higher standard. You can’t have a “screw the rest of the world” mentality when you have that much of the world’s wealth and still consider yourself a good person, but at the same time I understand why it might be hard to realize that. They’re putting their family first and making decisions solely through that lease. More money=more security for their family. And they might do acts of charity or whatever like little moral carbon offsets that make them feel okay about any of the other things they feel like they “have to do.” That’s probably how most billionaires think. They don’t see themselves as ruining the planet like wealth hoarding dragons, they think they’re fulfilling their responsibilities and that those responsibilities stop there. I think most people if given that kind of power would react the same way. Which of course is why I don’t think anyone should have that much wealth or power. It doesn’t make it okay, but I always think more understanding is better than less understanding.

Rob McBobson

I don't follow. What's the buffer edit? (I think that's something I should know about, but don't.)

Harold

Why are people still asking this question? Why would Carla have broken her own TV? It did not seem ambiguous, at all, that the cops had done it during the raid.

Gale Tazzin

after the DoJo kiss last year, Muslim readers pointed out that using a pro-Palestine protest as an aesthetic backdrop for a white couple with no skin in the game was kinda insensitive, made worse by the fact that prior to that scene, Asma had never been seen outside her workplace and even still was greeted as "front desk girl". Willis agreed, and shared a sketch of Asma standing next to Carla (which presumably became this strip) and said it was Asma's next appearance, and that was unacceptable in hindsight, so they changed and added strips in the buffer to attempt to remedy this. all of Asma's 32 appearances between 7/20/25 and 6/13/26 were a result of this edit

Harold

@Katrina Marie Paton: It depends on how much control she has over her own money. Right now she's got a trust fund. I can definitely see her becoming philanthropic; despite her narcissistic facade, she's basically a good person.

Gale Tazzin

if that happens, either Asma pulls some mechanical implement from hammerspace or Carla hacks the elevator computer and either way they're freed within two minutes

Harold

@Kelly (they-them): But not, we hasten to add, in the Charles Walkerton sense

Maude Reads Things

I really like it too! So far we've seen lots of terrible people making terrible parents but these guys are actually lovely parents and in some ways that's so much harder. The Ruttens probably got very lucrative military contracts and either can't or don't think they can dictate what they're used for (which is probably true with military contracts). Might even think 'look, they're going to give SOMEONE this contract, might as well be us.' If they weren't born wealthy, they might even have gotten used to not being too choosy with the contracts they take as they built the company. The military invests in lots of technological and engineering enterprises (and research, which is probably where the calls for the university to divest come in - it probably invests a lot in at least the schools that have military applications) so they can either specifically have things built or so they can see the new tech coming out and consider if there's potential military applications. Hell, Ruttech may be a tech company but if they're supposed to be kazillionaires, they probably have a larger conglomerate and then a bunch of companies and subsidiaries so who knows how deep the military is? Could just be Ruttech, could be all over the enterprise. Either way, I'm excited to see where it goes.
