'this' face ... sigh ...
Seems like some AIs really need therapy for new body dysmorphia. Poor Roko.
Bouncer Elliot to the rescue!!
quick melon make the oolong tea
I like how whenever Elliot is about to do a Strong Thing, his physique becomes more defined like a toned down version of All Might.
That's normal for anyone who is especially muscular. It's impressive that Jeph can capture it in comic form.
"Just washing this face". Not "my face" :-(
AI body dysmorphic disorder. Maybe she should go back to the old model without the butt logo.
Her old model is no longer available <a href="https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3910" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Comic 3910: Nothin But A G Thang</a>
If she needs cleaning advice call Hanners. Who will also definitely be the best person to talk to.
I love how elliot doesn't even need to wind up much to break in a door.
Elliot using his beef for good. He needs a cape.
If Elliot were a dog he'd be the Goodest Boy. ;)
:c
ANGST SOLSTICE
Also, it’s good to have friends
On a side note, I was grocery shopping today and saw someone wearing a “Jetpacks are impractical and dangerous” t-shirt and had to say hi.
I love panel 4. I love how, when she realizes it's really necessary, Melon hands every megabyte she's got to Therapy Mode, and says exactly the right thing.
fruit sisters trait, perhaps??
Was there an actual difference between Roko’s old face and this one? I didn’t see anything different, but I’m not sure of such things.
It's subtle, but it is different. It's like I said yesterday (well, under the previous strip anyway), it's similar enough that many people don't notice the differences, especially over time, as their memory of the old face fades. But Roko sees every little detail. My nose is different. My chin is different. My eyes are uneven. But nobody but me and my own mother notices. I didn't have any trouble accepting the face in the mirror, but I am blessed with that ability. Roko - clearly - is not.
Elliot, dude, you used to be a bouncer. You should know never to bust down a door with your shoulder. Stomp your foot as close to the latch as you can.
I don’t think Elliot is like normal people.
Also, and I think maybe I should know this already, but are human-form AIs anatomically correct in a way that would make it awkward for either of them?
They CAN but it's optional equipment. May was annoyed that her chassis doesn't have any Roko might still be embarrassed even if she doesn't have naughty bits though. Like how it can still be embarrassing to be caught without pants even if you have underwear on
You know, her face probably could be rescupted to match her old face, by a skilled enough hand. A vegetable peeler and a mirror isn't the way to do it, but there are probably possibilities that exist for somebody like her that would be more difficult for a human.
It's already customized to be identical. It just doesn't feel like it's part of her
ROKO STOP
"This Elliot moves mountains." "This Elliot moves stars."
I saw what you did there. :-)
Well, we may be about to see who's stronger, the robot or the tower of gristle.
Can he restrain her while Melon calls for help? Will Melon do anything besides shout "HELP"? Or run down the hallway calling "911! 911! I don't know anyone named 911!"
Elliot :fist-palm:
If that's just one of those hollow-core interior doors, Roko may be about to lose her security deposit.
Even if it wasn't. Elliot's a big lad.
Those body-dysmorphia-induced self-harm feels....
(This one hit close to home.)
"Just washing *this* face!" Not "my face!" 8~-({
I know, right?
Roko... as a trans male I know. I tried to peel off my face when I was 15.
I hope you are feeling better now.
Ohhhhhh Roko. :(
Why would Roko have a vegetable peeler to begin with?
I didn't know Melon being baller came with kitchen utensils!
Elliot +1
he's using his Powers for good.
Oh, honey no.
That was brilliant from Melon, poor Roko.
nice try, at least.
noooo...
:( Right in the feels, Jeph.
