I saw your comic about listening to a horror podcast while doing normal tasks. So I am college and I work at a 3D printing lab. Which is in the education, math, and business building is a prominent short cut.

For my work I have to keep the lab doors open to let folks in and we have a speaker system. So often I will be playing music or a podcast in the background while I work. And I have been relistening to TMA for this year as my year goal to listen to an episode a day. It was fun. Also in 2022 and 2033 when I got bored I would roll a d100 twice and add the totals to play an episode for something to listen to.

So I have been just vibing at the lab or doing my homework while people who are probably walking by or studying just hear the out of context TMA snippets from the lab with a bunch of power tools and running printers.

Now, I am well known at my university. It’s rather small, PWI, and most people know each other or know someone who knows you. I am pretty sociable and energetic open about that I have CPTSD and have had a difficult life. So when most people know of me they make the assumptions that I seen war and or am a veteran. People think that I also work at the school or I am a non traditional student.

(I’m also one of the few SWANA students and I think the one of most well known)

And I think me just having TMA in the background for me is maybe the main reason in the building I am most likely to face sexist, racist comments and catcalling. Just puts a a warning for most Cishet men not to fuck me with. (Sorry this is so long, I like your comic btw)

That's awesome! (besides people being assholes) The comic if it were in other peoples ears while they were completing normal tasks 😔 <3

I'm thrilled you liked it!!!

when jay proposes to nya he asks her to be the yang to his yin. now yang is typically associated with masculine energy and yin feminine energy, so im taking this to mean jay asked if nya would be the husband to his wife.

buck silver and That Damned Bird compilation

-> actually i was gonna talk a bit in the tags but i think im gonna put this analysis in the actual post here we go explanation of significance of That Damned Bird 💪💪💪

alright. so i think within fort freedom there are three corners of symbolism, that being 1) fire, 2) birds and 3) light.

fire generally represents cruelty and violence, birds represent ostracisation of anyone/anything that doesn't Fit In (yk. frogsticker clipped wings) and the light is holy and purifying. these concepts clearly translate to rick rounds, buck silver and TECHNICALLY heaven/god but mrs wicker considers herself a vessel for both so also mrs wicker. uhh heres some examples of that (minus buck) ↓

furthermore, when Rick and Buck both respectively leave Fort Freedom, it kind of loses the fire and the birds! like this is the introduction to Fort Freedom. bonfire in centre, described as ‘nest’, not pictured but theyre gathered around the frogsticker heron’s fighting pit

obviously when buck leaves the heron also leaves, but after rick leaves, FF stops the patrols and the cockfighting - aka the places they use fire!!! (bonfire + fuckign bombs or something idk look at ep23)

PLUS check this out:

Mrs Wicker being angry in a way she can't control is described with fire, and her obvious loud horror/disgust at Jacob having become disabled (Literally in front of Buck also) is described with 'birds taking off from the treeline'!!!!

if you look at what happens for each character to start their healing arcs, it also lines up; Rick literally has the fire in his blood taken out, the Frogsticker breaks free from it's cage and escapes. (idk if Mrs Wicker Has a healing arc im not far enough into season yet lol)

i think the point of all this is that all three corners serve as a microcosm for the critique of certain facets of american culture that Fort Freedom ofc exists to be an exploration of, with all three representing different ways growing up in that type of environment can impact someone! :DDD

IN CONCLUSION: That Damned Bird represents Fort Freedom’s violent rejection of anything/anyone different, the lack of control/autonomy Buck had over any part of his life, and the constant social exclusion and outcasting he experienced from a young age that led to him considering himself fundamentally Different and lesser than his peers/everyone else, only tolerated as far as he could make himself useful!!! yayyy 🎉🎉🎉🎉

anddd for funsies here are a couple more miscellaneous examples of all 3 characters interacting with fire/birds/light from which you may draw your own conclusions from:

I think my strangest interest? I don't know what to call it. Would be my fascination with Poland. I have no idea why Poland in particular. I've never been to Poland. I have no Polish ancestry. Why? I think I must've been Polish in a past life because I get way too excited whenever I see anything that has to do with Poland. I get so patriotic bro. I've even started learning the language. You know those weebs/koreaboos that are obsessed with Japan and Korea? I think I'm like that but with Poland for some reason. Actually now that I think about it that comparison makes a lot of sense because it all started one fateful day of 2016 when I was 12 and I stumbled upon a Polish cover of Servant of Evil. Yes the vocaloid song.
