Elon finally banned me. Lol
Comments (112)
I have never found Elliot cuter than in that second-to-last last panel.
Congrats on the ban. Its something I think we can all aspire to
Katie Mack's book is great and I'm sure there's no hidden message to be taken from your lover giving you "The End of Everything."
Jeph: Congratulations on the 10 year anniversary! (Also: Thanks for the update post.)
In response to your newspost yesterday, just wanted to add that Tumblr would love to have you, and that I would love to be able to reblog Questionable Content there to @ various friends about comics that remind me of them. Also, selfishly, I would find Questionable Content in the Tumblr app easy to read.
jephjacques dot tumblr dot com is already a thing, last post was four years ago... might be time to find those login details
If you mostly read QC here like me, you might want to know that yesterday's comic on the main website had a long newspost about MuskGate, and other stuff about Jeph's life and times.
Thanks. I'll go see.
Bravo, well done on the banning. Couple of your posts made me do a double-take, so it was really good. I will say I am thankful to Elon for finally lighting a fire under me - deleted/deactivated Twitter, Mastodon, Instagram, and Tumblr today. Basically all I have left are reddit and Discord/Messanger apps.
Finally got me to remember to pledge after it being on my to-do list for years. Great work!
Haha, that was a great performance, Jeph.
Updated my pledge to support you on your darkest hour.
Sympathies! Turns out he can only spend so many hours a day guzzling piss, before setting down the sippy cup and getting to work.
Got me to finally sign up to yours so that I'd more easily catch when the comic updates. Not sure why I waited this long 😓
Same here! That kinda courage, never mind all the fun I've had with the comic, deserves support!
Paying you a £1 (probably nothing once patron has their cut, but still) sorry Elon doesn't like the truth about how he likes to drink piss.
And it made the news! https://www.businessinsider.com/musk-said-comedy-now-legal-twitter-jokes-getting-users-suspended-2022-11
Wow, Elon sure likes making trouble for himself. lol
Congratulations on your loss, Jeph.
I followed you on Mastodon, in the hope you might start posting there now.
What's his address there?
Can we all just move to tumblr now?
Been reading QC before there was a Twitter, I'll be reading it after. Good show, old chap!
Come on over where the cool kids are building a new treehouse.
I've been reading QC for at least 18 years, subscribed on Patreon for at least 3, and the last few days on Twitter have been astounding to watch, and possibly my favourite thing youve ever done. Bravo Jeph, BRAVO.
One of the few people who hasn’t grown their hair out.
That’s how I found you! Amazing how thin-skinned Musk is. It was a witty protest.
Oh gosh poor Renee having to put up w everyone’s ~stuff~
Do you think Renee is the kind of person who puts up with anything they don't want to?
Sorry, guess I am in the minority here. I find nothing amusing about impersonating someone to make fun of them. I found the only people acting more childish than Elon were the people impersonating him.
It's a protest. Elon bought Twitter and wants to make changes that users don't agree with. For example, not banning anyone anymore and unbanning currently banned people. Allowing people to buy a verification checkmarks instead of Twitter making sure the account is legit. Impersonating Elon Musk is a way to show that both those things don't make any sense. Since you can buy a checkmark and since they don't want to ban anyone you could impersonate anybody.
Free expression indeed ! :)
I used to go on Twitter to comment on the day's comic, but since you stopped tweeting it out last April I took the opportunity to finally pledge on Patreon so I could comment here :D 0 regrets
'Not collapsing the waveform' may now be my go-to excuse for my procrastination issues.
+1 for the twitter congrats - have you set up a Mastodon account yet?
You had a really good run on Twitter.
The name "Elon Musk" is short for "Elongated Muskrat", which was his mother's favourite pet during her upbringing. Anyway, I'm proud of you, Jeph. You went down in a blaze of glory.
Muskrat! Muskrat! Muskrat!
It was a glorious run, I'm surprised it took them that long to ban you.
I mean, I've been reading for...forever? and never subscribed until now. So. You won me over through billionaire mockery. I did the random a few times, and I can't believe Claire dates back to 2012. OMG. I feel old.
Please do more print versions of QC - I am ready to buy & support 💜
They’re also trying to furiously back pedal a load of their layoffs. I can just imagine how well that’s going to go for them.
All Hail! ❤️
Congrats!
Well done, Jeph! *starts thinking about that secret Twitter account I never use*
We bow down to you!
holy shit i caught the most shared one before the ban but that whole run? *chefs' kiss* but also backup/new acct right? sucks but for comics/art bird app still a thing, lil concerned
[he says ironically in his Patreon]
Thank you for your service lol
You should get your ban notice framed. After quality posts like that, it's a mark of pride.
Jeph come to mastodon if you're not already there!
Absolute legend Jeph, it was fucking hilarious.
Featured: Reene has to deal with some bulshit (again)
Loved the way you poked the muskrat over the last few days.
I just saw someone I follow that I don't think even reads your comic RT a whole ass thread of screen shots of your beautiful disaster. You're a meme now, gg! https://twitter.com/EyePatchGuy/status/1589463014541230081
Came here to post this but you beat me by a minute
I bumped up by Patreon to the "pictures of Ollie" level because, first of all, pictures of Ollie, but also for the epic Elon Musk thing.
I love the idea of Katie Mack existing in canon
Cue the Bon Jovi.
A badge of honor. Musk is Shit Midas.
Wait…which one’s the stage name? E.M. or S.M. ?
I often refer to Twitter as “Yelling Bird”
Nah, Yelling Bird is not nearly as big a piece of shit.
Congratulations
So what happens if we *all* get in on the impersonation game? Is Twitter jail big enough for everyone?
I think that depends on whether enough people besides Musk still own Twitter stock to successfully file suit against him for his breech of fiduciary duty. If not, it's possible he just needs to declare bankruptcy and then recover like a member of the formerly super wealthy. :(
Now log into Pintsize's account and start the process again. (I joined twitter in part to follow all the QC twitter accounts.)
i've been waiting for the ban, can't believe it took as long as it did, one of the last accounts i care about on that hellsite
"The candle that burns twice as bright burns half as long. And you, my friend, have burned so very, very bright."
Yeah, that conversation ended in an undesirable kind of thumbs-up
Fuck the blood emerald heir pedo
Not even with a rented dick and you pushing!
Renee is too good for her friends, ISTG.
Elliot, seriously: GET THERAPY. You have untreated anxiety and it's affecting your life!
Aw Danget, and I just came across your Twitter this morning.
Thank you for your service
Can't wait until this comes out tomorrow so I can let Katie Mack and our mutual friends know, if you haven't already told her.
Panel 3: "He's must be"?
Of course he banned you, he is a free speech absolutist... unless it's about how shitty of a person elon is.
I'm so happy with myself for instantly getting the joke about Katie Mack's book. (Which is funny, because I'm also so happy with myself for quitting Twitter, the site where I learned of her book to begin with.)
Your Twitter feed for the past two days was glorious! And too good to last.
IN THE ARMS OF THE ANGEL FLY AWAYYYY FROM HERE (No more social media or are you looking at Mastodon?)
For those (like myself) unfamiliar with astronomer Katie Mack's work, her book is called The End of Everything (Astronomically Speaking)... had to Google it, but I now get the joke!
Oh no. Clinton is going to need to discover what it's like to be the most chill person in a room.
🫡 you'll be missed Jeph. At least for the couple months it'll take for Elon to completely implode and sell the site off
From your lips to Flying Spaghetti Monster’s noodly sensory appendages.
Is it true you once launched a calzone into space?
Ah, yes, Shrödinger's boyfriend. Hmm, I wonder if, when people ghost a partner/date/etc., they're just trying to keep their options open through quantum superposition...
It's a pity; Katie Mack's book is amazing.
I wanna see screen shots of the comments that got Jeph banned.
There is a link to them on a comment above. And they are golden.
She's known soft boi for a long time, hasn't she? A dose of Renee is just what Elliot needs right now. (Also see #4569.)
You are a hero Jeph! No one cares about #PonyBoy.
How dare you diss a perfectly decent Springsteen song, you perfectly-good-song-disser!
Conga rats on getting banned for being too funny on Twitter dot Com
I can't believe my favorite cartoonist was banned from the hellbird site in this, the year of our Garfield 2022. What is this world coming to?
Wait, how do we see them??
There is a link to screenshots of the banned posts above, and not far above at that. :)
Elon sucks.
Elliot has been infected by Clinton's peculiar strain of nerdiness.
All that effort of banning people and he still never figured out what Grimes' real name was 😂
You’re my hero.
Those tweets were gold, I’m glad I got some screenshots while they were still up 😆
Oh no I didn't see them. Does Patreon have a way for patrons to share images?
Elliot you beautiful soft boy. You have tied yourself in too many knots. I am glad you have found a friend to help you de-tangle.
Those posts were glorious Jeph.
Delicate little flower, isn't he? I wonder how long it's going to take for him to get tired of his new toy and fuck off elsewhere.
For clarification, I meant Elon, not anybody in the QC comic.
I'm in this comic and I don't like it >:(
This is a very personal attack, yea
Hecc that elongated muskrat ✌️
I want Musk to show us (on a doll) where your comments hurt him, Jeph.
