Nothing makes me feel more left out than these comics.

I usually don't understand them either, but I find them extremely cool. I guess that's the point of surrealist art.

I find them filling a magnificent universe exactly like my brainhole would actually learn its lore if left to do so unguided - a random bit by random bit, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Also death to matacorpos!

Honestly though, well done. They truly are interesting. I spend a few minutes scrutinizing every detail.

I never have even the remotest of clues what's going on in these comics and I still love them for some reason. I think it's the art and the wasteland aesthetics.

The smoking gives no tactical advantage whatsoever

Sure it does, nicotine can make you calmer and more alert. It's a jitter-free stimulant. Not that I recommend taking up smoking.

But then you give away your position with the smell, smoke, and cherry.

Those bots can't smell sh+t

[–] turtlepower@lemm.ee 6 points 7 months ago

They can see it, though.

[–] bbpngn@lemmy.eco.br 4 points 7 months ago

They smell data. No need to give them what they want. Incidentally, your lungs will thank you
