Suddenly, comments!
With the popularity of the latest ChaosLife comic and the sheer volume of questions, letters, and Asks about it that we have since received, we decided it was a good testing ground for allowing comments on the comics. And I’m happy to say, it’s been a huge success already! We’re going to soon retroactively allow comments on more of the comics, FindChaos included, and continue allowing comments on new posts. So, hooray, reader community! Thanks for all of your wonderful feedback so far, I can’t wait to keep the conversations rolling!
Also, I realized K and I had no mutual icon that would suit our site admin account, so voilà! The first icon that features the two of us at once. Bananas.
richardcristopolis asked: WHERE'S THE FUCKING FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE
I DON’T KNOW. WE GOT A PS3 YEARS AGO, BECAUSE WE SAID, “THIS IS THE SYSTEM IT WILL HAPPEN ON,” AND IT DIDN’T.
I think it’s why I can’t get into long-format video games. When I play them, I just think, “this isn’t Final Fantasy VII,” or “these graphics would look amazing to render Sephiroth in.” I’m a ruined person.
Anonymous asked: In regards to your most recent post: what are your personal thoughts/feelings on modern neutral pronouns (zhe, zir, etc.)?
Personally, I don’t like them in reference to me. I’ve always been perfectly happy with people using “she,” “he,” or as my wife sometimes does when writing about me, “s/he.” Maybe it’s because the modern neutral pronouns are so new to me that they sound weird as personal indicators, it kind of shocks my mind out of the conversation.
Still, that’s just my thing. I think it’s great that some people have found a set of pronouns that makes them happy and feel properly identified. If that’s someone’s preference, I would use them to refer to them without missing a beat.
Another “pronoun game” I’ve found in a lot of articles and from other agenders is using “they” for the most part, and their last names when necessary to refer to them otherwise. It actually works really well, so I don’t mind that either! Plus, Stiffler is just funny to say.
ChaosLife: Agender Agenda
Man, this one is a doozy! It’s long, but also a long time coming, since we realized that apart from a couple remarks in the About page and a sarcastic comic, we’ve never really addressed the topic of my gender vs. sex. I really hope everyone can take away something good from it, even just a few laughs!
(But seriously, the “an angry weasel” thing, we checked, it’s super fun.)
