I would pay money to see this animated...
Totally read this in Cali Mori's voice.
Nelson’s Double Middle Fingers wish came true and I’m so happy haha
Nelson: The unPintsize.
Well, Yay did say that they believed that Roko would do more good in the private sector. When an incomprehensibly intelligent entity tells me I'm making the right choice, I ... worry about what it finds amusing.
I <3 you, Roko. I want to kneed your dough.
Roko / Nelson ticket for President 2028
I do love coffee nasal rinses.
Nothin' like it to clear out the ol' sinuses. Just don't do it while you're at work unless you keep a clean shirt handy.
Have I said lately how much I adore Roko?
@Mad Marie: Did I do this right? [ Ō Ō ] | [ óó] [ »»] | [ ~ ~ ] | nlm mln [ ū ū ] | [ ō ō ]
her expression in that last panel basically guarantees this is going to be a meme and live forever.
Let's face it - the swearing's the best part...
Fucking nailed it Jeph. Love this 🖤
I think Roko needs some relaxing time to herself at home. With a baguette.
Are you kidding? Letting that all out *was* relaxing.
Roko is just so good
This comic has come a long way from when it used to be about a guy who wanted to play a guitar or something.
Who?
Can Roko be my favorite character? Please?
Um, you're the only one with any say on that. If you want her to be your favorite character, I think that means she is your favorite character. Well, at least, that's the way it works for those who aren't deeply conflicted on stuff.
Roko looks so tired, this is amazing
Ha!
"fuck it we're doing it live!" ~<3
Roko! Rock on!
Show us the video that made you go viral. ^_^
One of these days we're going to see Roko use the full power of her surliness. Let us pray it is used for good...
They should run it exactly as is, including the last panel
My headcanon: not only did they decide that, what we just saw was from what they ran, not a live depiction of the filming of the apology. Not that there's a great deal of difference. I mean, Nelson's pretty good at that whole film to digital processing.
Holy SHIT I just realized her name. I am so dumb. XD
I saw someone else on The Internets making what I thought was a reference to her name. I thought, oh cool, big QC fan! I then looked it up & realized her name & that were both just referencing the AI thing. Dumdum solidarity~
What in the world is the background? I read “Pioneer”? At very first glance, I thought she was depicted with a halo as if in a classic Orthodox Christian icon painting.
St Roko, the Patreon Saint of having no Fs to give and breading
nelson's got good instincts
Roko has learned all the right things from hanging out with May.
Chaotic Good against her own will
Big "Hello, Roko here!" vibes.
Alt version of panel 6: Nelson "Ha ha - as if"
We need more internet apologies like this.
this man is getting so fucked these days.
If only. 😔
"Absolutely not." I love it so much.
Love it when Roko's accent comes out. And just Nelson's whole take on the situation.
She's right and she should say it 😤
Yup, 100% perfection. Go Roko, go!
Embrace the chaos, Roko. It’s better that way.
Nah. Roko isn't Roko if she isn't defying something.
Panel 4 on a t shirt
Came here to say the same
That she knows of.
ROKO
Additionally, on further reflection: NELSON
I love the Boston component to Roko so much ('wicked pissed')!
Currently headcanoning a teamup between Roko and Zac and Ivy from Carmen Sandiego.
For some reason I think she received communications mentorship from May. I could be wrong.
May would want this to be the final cut, and for it to end with Roko mooning the camera.
For best effect, that whole thing, from first panel to last, should be posted uncut. Her behind-the-scenes asides just server to show she's the genuine article. If Nelson makes her do a regularly updated vlog, she'll probably become an unintended net star. (Unintended from *her* perspective, of course)
Of course. What do you think Nelson meant by "perfect"?
"I'm here to... um... fuck" is the perfect start.
and she loves anal I mean lana
Self-excavating apology apologies are so recursive.
Oh, my god, unbent Roko is AWESOME.
Answer was incorrect in the last pane. Correction: "Hell, no!"
It's totally going out live isn't it
I don't know why she's so grumpy. Roko nailed that video!
The look of "here we go" on Roko's face is great. Also, this whole speech makes me sad that the folks we vote for will never be this honest.
Part of the problem there is we keep voting for people who are very clearly not being honest. Another part of the problem, the honest people keep leaving the races at the slightest scandal... at the local level, which is about as far as any of them get, because the dishonest people can make a scandal for anyone.
Nelson on camera, I suspect. :)
Of course it's Nelson. Nobody else knew how to operate the vintage 35mm newsreel camera he insisted they use.
That's the kind of charity that I would donate to.
Never thought I’d be in love with a fictional robot lady, but then we got Roko.
and tomorrow we learn this was a livestream.
Nah Nelson would never stream it live without consent. He is a lawyer.
There is value in Roko's candor. And her potty mouth. Especially her potty mouth.
Swearing is peak Roko tho.
Nelson, you are perfect. Roko, we love you.
So, are they using a standard camera, or is Nelson just recording his audio visual sensory input?
Nelson is recording this with a 35mm newsreel camera. Uploading the footage won't be easy, but he's committed to the aesthetic.
Utter perfection.
Roko, we love you.
