I don’t know if there are any other webcomics where fat bitches get to be the sexually liberated love interests of main characters, but I know there’s this one. This page is particular wish fulfillment since the lard lass likes the barely socially competent dickhead. A lot of people think that Thomas is my self insert, but that’s not exactly accurate. Thomas is me at the top of my game. The best self I’d like to be. Reggie is much more the real me. It’s telling that even the best version of myself is still not that good of a person, but at this point what difference does it really make? I don’t get the girl with any version of myself other than these made up ones.
You might think it’s odd for Reggie to act like this having already had sex with Alex, but I assure you that embarrassment can be conditional. Saucy talk where other people can hear is embarrassing to him, much as it is with me. Except it has to be sincere. If it was meaningless banter it wouldn’t matter, but he’s genuinely invested and in his heart he knows that’s a point of attack. A weakness to be exploited. Once you begin to care you gain a vulnerability. Isn’t it amazing how so many things in life can have so many subtle layers of conditionality? It’s a wonder anyone manages to muddle through.

Anyway, I didn’t sleep well and also went outside two days in a row. I’m fading fast and there’s so much to do. I hope you enjoy my drawings of fake people today. I hope they make your life better in some way. Have a safe weekend so we can meet here again on Monday. Until then, head for the place you are meant to be, even if you don’t get there today.
