A tale can has tellings, each influenced by its context. This week we explore a tale with many paths, a tale that at its heart is about how a story must end, and if it should. We look at Slay the Princess. But remember- Trusting is hard, even yourself. #backlogdialogues #slaytheprincess #minilog

Let’s be real they’re using “furry” as a visibly queer subculture as a stand-in for queerness at large. Their goal has been to remove queer people from public life, and they’re testing different vectors to do so. Hence the all caps “MENTALLY ILL,” which is how they want to reclassify all queers

But We Mustn't Ruin HIS Life By me and @postcardsbybecky.bsky.social Read more cartoons! —> #Policartoon Support the cartoons! —>patreon.com/barry

Four-panel cartoon with a tiny kicker panel below.

PANEL 1. A Black delivery worker stands beside her van, holding a package. She looks downcast.

WOMAN: Everywhere I went I was terrified I’d run into **him**. I couldn’t sleep, couldn’t concentrate…
WOMAN: After I failed two classes I lost my scholarship.

PANEL 2. A girl in pink sits on a bicycle on a residential street, looking down.

GIRL: He sent the video to everyone in school. **Everyone**. I had to be homeschooled until I could get into a different school.

PANEL 3. A woman sits in an apartment armchair, holding a baby who pats her face. She looks sad.

WOMAN: It’s been ten years… My therapist says PTSD isn’t ever cured, but it’s something I can learn to manage.

PANEL 4. A hand holds a phone showing a male podcaster at a microphone.

MAN: Nobody feels worse than me about what happened — but we can’t ruin these young men’s lives!

KICKER. The podcaster speaks with Barry, the cartoonist.

BARRY: What sort of thing would “ruin their lives”?
MAN: Being expelled. Or being publicly criticized. Or made to switch dorms. Or to switch a class. Basically, anything he might notice.
