Everything Is Great
I've been impersonating Elon Musk all day on twitter and they still haven't suspended my account, because they're cowards

This is where I can support Elon Musk, right? ;) For your little stunt on Twitter you have gained yourself a new Patreon. Good work, my friend!
I saw a collection of your Elon tweets over on tumblr -- damn near wet myself reading them. Didn't realize you were the author until I went back and re-read them. Kudos for some truly brilliant comedy (to go along with your brilliant work on QC). Also, glad to see your tweets (and the subsequent account cancellation) was prominently reported on Ars Technica.
I absolutely love how Yay's animation style has progressed. Their hair is amazing in this comic.
There sure seem to be a lot of permanent suspensions getting handed out at the new "free speech" twitter...
Such free. Very speech. Wow.
I just joined your patreon, it's looong overdue since I've been following QC since strip #1 ... and yes it's a tiny bit related to the tweets also
Twitter hero.
I'm sad it's over but I'm also glad I got to see it happen
Fan of the comic for a long time, but man that was a masterclass in parody. Nothing thinner than a rich man's skin,
I tried to get a download of the twitter feed; I suspect others have as well, and probably with better luck. I am NOT a twitter user.
This person screencapped it all, but posted it all backwards. Start with this post, go bottorm-right to top left in each group of pictures, and work your way back. https://twitter.com/exclamate_/status/1589426234231951362
lmao I made elon SO MAD
You did. It was GLORIOUS, Jeph, GLORIOUS! In the Klingon sense of the term!
It was epic
They nuked Jeph's twitter account. Damn it.
He violated Robot's Rules of Order.
Pretty sure either Pintsize or Melon are the actual worst people with whom to leave your keys.
The invisible Emu. NEVER give your keys to the invisibule Emu.
I somehow didn't notice until now that they have the same hair
I feel like giving Yay the keys would just be redundant. They always have access
Giving Yay the keys for the purpose of granting access would be redundant. Giving Yay the keys for the purpose of returning them to Elliott, on the other hand, feels less likely to go well.
Yay, reading the room to perfection.
I don't have the courage to change my display name to Elon Musk on here, but I am fairly sure SOMEBODY will do it shortly.
Would it really matter If Elliott gave his keys to Yay or not? I feel like they could have full access regardless.
I think it's Clinton's keys (in Elliot's disasterizing scenario of Clinton going to break up with him within an hour). That said, Yay is incredibly powerful and curious and if they have done something bad (after the Corpse Witch Project) their friends (whether humans or lesser AIs) would turn on them. And Yay really likes having friends.
Your Twitter has been glorious!
your account may not be suspended, but it has been restricted.
Questions for Yay- 1- do y’all really want additional unpaid responsibility? 2- given we all know you can 3D image the tumblers with LiDAR or whatever and 3D print a key to get in anytime you really want, it can’t really be a trust thing right?
Mastodon time?
Yay obviously already have the exact schematic of the keys and the capability to synthetize a copy at will, but its nice being asked
Awww, your twitter account finally got restricted.
Here's what I'm hoping for: 1) Clinton and Yay discuss the pros and cons of working in cubetown. Afterwards, Clinton goes and checks in on his boyfriend to make sure he's okay. 2) Eliot goes to "Work" even though it's his night off and discusses his anxieties with Brun. 3) Brun and Millefeuille developed an A-Romantic relationship during the time skip.
Today's twitter rampage has been hilarious! Thank you Jeph for keeping us in stitches today!
I really need to make a FB group entitled "I support Jeph Jacques."
Impersonating somebody else, even a public figure, is probably not a safe legal practice. I'm not a lawyer, mind you, but it just doesn't feel safe to me. Unfortunately, Twitter started being annoying about wanting people to sign in to their twitter account to read anything. I think I'd probably need an account to do that.
His twitter account still clearly identifies him as Jeph.
I just saw the “smells like nachos” tweet. Comrade you are doing a beautiful thing and know this, when you fall another shit poster will take your place and the glory will continue.
My wife has been loving your tweets. I identified you to her. We are both so happy you are who you are and do what you do. Thank you. So much.
Got a good laugh at work checking your tweets today. Thank you, I needed that
I just now realized that Clinton is probably named after William Jefferson Clinton. He would have been born roughly when Bill left office.
Upvoted. But thanks to the webcomic sliding timescale Clinton's year of birth is different now than when he first appeared eleven (of our) years ago while having aged much less in-universe. My rough estimate is that in 2011 Clinton was born maybe in 1991. Sometimes I wish I could age more slowly.
Just got "Caution: This account is temporarily restricted"
same
I just read through your Elon Musk tweets, Jeph. Pure gold.
Looks like someone might be headed down to the Horrible Revelation.
Well, that is one of the places he works. And it feels like it'd be a better place to run away and hide from ones anxiety, because I somehow feel like Renee wouldn't put up with that.
My guesses: We somehow learn that Clinton has barely dated anyone before, so he doesn't notice...El is too insecure to process Clinton's responses right now. Clinton is unaware of El's insecurity but the center panels might clue him in.
If you're not careful Jeph Musk will just give you twitter to run and then where will we be?
If Jeph ran Twitter, all the bots would become sentient. o.0
The expression on Hercules is so cute! (also your tweets are very funny and good)
Yay, you should not complain - you've been entrusted with something much more precious. (i.e. Hercules > keys)
Yay, everyone already knows you don't need keys!
That tagline is BS. Leaving your keys with Roko is clearly better than leaving them with Melon.
I think he means Yay would be the worst person.
Exit, stage left, taking most of the scenery and backdrops with him in panic.
Exit, pursued by an anxiety bear.
He’s going to meet Brun with a Harpoon, I’m calling it now. (Or Brun on a date with Millefeuille, possibly watching an expensive Swiss timepiece work while having fondue.)
Soft boy feelings!
Poor Clinton. I mean, I feel a lot of sympathy for Eliot too, because I'm a guy who worries that my partner doesn't REALLY want to be with me. But I also just wanna tell Eliot "Look, I get that anxiety is a S.O.B. but you can't solve it by accusing your boyfriend of not wanting to be with you, and then running away so that the two of you can't talk it out."
Unfortunately for rational thinking, anxiety is that bitch of a son that comes home, ruins your shit and leaves at the worst possible moment to dodge the clean up.
I mean, I don’t blame Clinton, he’s still new at relationships, and this was a hypothetical and partly joke statement. Obviously if it happened, he would sit down and think and discuss with Elliot. But like Claire, he’s going to keep his options open.
It's quite funny when you think about how anxious Claire was to bring up this prospect with Marten, versus Clinton who has brought it up a *tad* prematurely, but I guess at least the topic is out there xD
This comic is so sweet. Also, your Elon is hilarious.
I agree - keep on with the Elon impersonation, tis very amusing.
Elliot why
Because he is stupid, he is the mayor of stupid town.
HERCULES
I need to get that fluffy tum
Oh Elliot... I hope you get some good council. I also hope Clinton pulls his head out of his ass.
What's is Clinton supposed to be doing wrong?
Elliot's fragile heart/Yay's obliviousness. And Clinton's trying to come to terms with everything.
Elliot please see a therapist. Yay...you would forget which body had them and he'd have to get new ones.
I'm not sure we've seen evidence that they're that scatterbrained. But keeping track of somebody's keys probably isn't going to be a high enough of a priority for them to do it. (Alternative wording: I agree that Yay would probably misplace them, but I'm not willing to predict the manner in which they misplace them.)
The Mayor is late for the StupidTown annual parade, followed by the anxiety Olympics, he has to run!
She’s got to help Elliot get confidence.
There's no she here...
The dedication and precision of your Elon tweets today has been inspiring.
Especially your GPG keys
His mind is somewhere else where Yay
elliot...... :(
