I make the webcomic Treading Ground (a raunchy romcom about broke people), videos, games, and burritos. I talk about Star Trek, lefty stuff, and old anime. he/they Comic! - treadingground.com NSFW! - patreon.com/treadingground
![[Rose is reclining on a couch in a coffee shop, looking up and to the left, bored]
Rose: So anyway, the only difference is his kids all have four fingers, while the other Na'vi only have three.
Rose: I'm not, like, an Avatar geneticist. But I'd expect a Human-Na'Vi hybrid to be, I don't know, shorter? Less blue?
[Camera pans out to show Aya sitting next to Rose on the couch, looking at her hand.]
Aya: Ok, sure, but...
Aya: Why four fingers?
Rose: Uh, because that's the standard number of fingers for a person to have?
[Aya, skeptical, holding up three fingers and a thumb with her right hand]
Aya: FOUR fingers?
Rose (laughing, holding up her hand): No! Four fingers and a thumb.
Aya (dour): A thumb IS a finger.
Rose: I guess? But you wouldn't say that like, MICKEY MOUSE has four fingers.
Rose: He's got three fingers. The thumb is just assumed.
Aya: Why would we assume that?
Aya: Some people don't have THUMBS!](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:rjaig2emvustaj2ulcwhgpxh/bafkreienrnb33mlo7c26kyinxvu2i53thfkknhurom7cqrhsdk4uhlpqja)

![Nate: Wow, really?
Corbin: Really! Honestly, we're in a bit of a bind right now. We need a Bookkeeper stat, and you've got the experience.
Nate (laughing nervously): That's, uh, great!
Nate: I mean, not great that you're in a bind, of course, haha
Corbin: So you'll do it?
Nate: I just need to check on my... housing situation. Can I call you back tonight?
[Corbin hands Nate his business card, which has a phone number and a LinkedIn address as his website]
Corbin: Absolutely, take some time! My cell number is on here.
[Nate walking away, face conflicted, as Corbin beams and waves from behind him]
Corbin: It's going to be great having you back, Nate!
Nate: Th-thanks...](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:rjaig2emvustaj2ulcwhgpxh/bafkreielgknhvnvbgsibb54bucugfjgnvk6hx6luq4swkuuf7hk67iqws4)
