In Vermont, yeah. But next door in New Hampshire, right after the presidential election, they go ’round asking the citizens who they like in the next one.
“It’s time for a general election to show your support for last year’s referendum that led to the resignation of the Prime Minister from the previous year’s general election, which he won off the back of the year before that’s referendum…”
Yeah, not on this side of the pond either. Politicians are always trying to get you to take sides. Either for something related to the election that just happened, or to sway you in time for the next one.
Someone once described politics this way: “Poly” – multiple; and “ticks” – parasites that get under your skin and are a constant irritation.
If I had a nano super weapon ensconced in a patchwork, mutli-corpse housing, I wouldn’t go playing dress-up with it. Or showing it to the public. Or referring to it as a person.
Kinda hard to ignore a girl who’s half black/half white and stitched together, and who’s standing there with a blond dude in drag. You’d have to be REALLY good at ignoring stuff to not stare at THAT.
OK, to be fair, that was Whimsy World. If there even IS anything considered “normal” there, it’s still pretty f***ing weird. Unity and Nick (and pretty much the whole SH gang) fit right in.
This is DC. There may be a fair amount of weirdness, but I’d still have a hard time not staring at Unity. (Actually – and I’m not a necrophiliac or anything, mind you – I think Unity is hot, so I’d have a hard time not staring at her no matter where she was.)
So for Unity, that’d be double-dolled up, since she’s already basically a walking, talking, brain-eating rag doll herself. Sort of like putting a new dress on Raggedy Ann.
Unity… dolled up.
Stop the world! I want off!
I’m hoping for a Gilligan cut…
Training montage! Uh…. Doll-up montage!
I am so, so looking forward to seeing this. Tip’s makeovers are awesome
I wonder if her new dress will be split-colored down the middle?
I love how Unity is SO good at noticing that she’s ignoring something XD
Her powers of self-reflection make me wonder about her recent diet.
You’re right. She totally ate a mirror.
Does election season EVER end?
Depends on when Democracy ends. And even then, sometimes there are still show elections, like in Putin’s Russia.
In Vermont, yeah. But next door in New Hampshire, right after the presidential election, they go ’round asking the citizens who they like in the next one.
We have gubernatorial elections (which, unlike the federal-level ones, are actually competitive) every two years, though.
Not round this side of the pond.

I’m really looking forward to this!
Panel two is the big one. (almost an authors note) (heh!)
with panel four a strong chaser.
If I had a nano super weapon ensconced in a patchwork, mutli-corpse housing, I wouldn’t go playing dress-up with it. Or showing it to the public. Or referring to it as a person.
If I had one, I’d let her do whatever she wanted (please don’t leave any evidence, Unity), as long as she came home at night.
You’d let her do whatever she wanted as long as you value your corporeal integrity.
That guy behind them in Panel One is looking right at them. He must not be good at ignoring stuff.

The guy at Whimsey World hitting on Nick-driving-Violet said Unity just had a bad facial scar. So he ignored that *and* Nick-driving-Violet.

They aren’t in D.C. at the moment, they’re in Vermont.
I think he’s just staring at the guy in drag.
Well, we had Tip focused on rights’ issues for a couple days, I guess…

My first thought for the last panel was “Don’t pull too hard, Tip. You’ll rip her arm off… again.”
