All mad scientists have that to some extent. Dave built a quantum laptop out of a handkerchief and a paperclip and Helen produced an unspeakable disaster using just the materials in the kitchen and bathroom of an Italian Bistro. They can bend reality so it conforms to their mad desires.
She has to be kept in a straightjacket, but is still allowed to have earrings? That makes no sense whatsoever.
Two comics forward, this is explained. Well, Lampshaded.
We later learn that Tigerlily has a type of mojo that Tip also has – a way to bend reality to fit their needs.

That really was a killer pesto, wasn’t it?
Yay!
This strip is one of my favorites.
This one *blew my mind* when I first ready it. I’ve been excited to see it again during my re-read.
Mad scientist would make an awesome character obsession in Unknown Armies with how mad scientist works.
I’m keeping an eye out for the latest edition of it. But I love looking at the art and lore for it.
I was originally introduced to this comic by a friend who was excitedly telling me about Tigerlilly Jones.
And I gotta say, she does not disappoint.
Ahhh, sweet TLJ. My mum approved of her.
