Joyce: I consent

Joe: I consent!

Rich Mullins: I don't!

Redraw of the illustration from the back of the first book! This was supposed to be for the 14 anniversary but- hehe ups

Has anyone done this yet?

Almost this exact scene has been floating around in my head for years, but eventually it couldn't happen, given Developments, so guess what it's a flashback now

How could I forget!

Dumbing of Age is, just in time for Pride, exploring a couple of girls with deeply repressed lesbian feelings for one another, and I've got my fingers crossed. The whole comic has pretty good rep on the whole, with lots of toxic and wholesome relationships, and is concerned with these freshmen figuring themselves out and being total fucking disasters.

Features a lewd handholding scene. Like, unironically.

💀 I love dumbing of age

I just noticed that Professor Brock and Joyce have the same eyes.

Surely this is merely coincidence, and not a secret hint that Brock is Future Trans Man Joyce come back in time through a really intense peyote trip to spread enlightenment and lead humanity to the next energy level in an abstruse riff on The Magic School Bus.

i dunno that this is necessarily what i think will happen but i do think it would be pretty funny

Joyce and Pearl are my two favorite rules-following rebels

ok seriously no I just have to fuckin.

I am so fucking emotional about Jocelyne rn. That "Joyce's sibling lore" drop in 2013 fucking set me on fire, and I had to bank those flames for NINE YEARS, just quietly vibrating any time transness or Josh got mentioned. And then this whole chapter's been titled "the one where Jocelyne returns" and then here she is and she looks AMAZING and HAPPY and I wasn't sure how Joyce would respond and it's just that little smile because she understands now in a way she never would've before maybe this WEEK and I just. I'm really emotional, okay??

Willis, you done good. Thank you so much for the payoff - it's already worth the 9 year wait.

Two ways that dumbing of age characters think and talk about sex:

1. Perplexingly scientific investigation and categorization (Walky, Dotty, Dina, and Galasso. Joe might be as well?)

2. Violence as innuendo (Becky, Carla, Sarah, and Joyce/Anti-Joyce)

I’ve been doing a lot of speedpaints on TikTok and I thought this one belonged here. @dumbingofage fanart of Joyce and Joe! Found the perfect song for them, I’m quite happy.

briefly wondered what Joyce's eyes would look like if her irises had pupils and I'm afraid I have awoken a great evil
