    Doggone, Chris, I’ve had to change my mind so many times I’m thinking of building it a walk-in closet. Just when I’d gone back to thinking that this has all been a chapter in her book or an extended fantasy sequence conjured up by Sam, (Skye? Carrying?) you sneak something in that changes my mind back again.

    I figure it’s one of three things: 1) Skye is under deep cover and infiltrating the normal – I mean fascist – deplorables. She’ll commit some sort of atrocity that will be blames on the right, thus labeling them all domestic terrorists. 2) Skye is deliberately manipulating her Sam & Co. out of desperation and impending poverty. 3) Skye has been pining over that “cute sheriff” and this is her way of catching his eye.

    When I teach revolution, I tell my students that there are two kinds of revolutionaries. There are the “idealist” ones who adopt an ideology, and turn to violence because of the ideology’s precepts. The second type are the ones already prone to violence, who shop around for an ideology that will justify what they’ve already decided they want to do. I’d pretty much out Skye in the second category: She knew what she wanted and tried to find a political movement or ideology that would legitimize her goals. It will be fun to see how this plays out and just how far off the mark I was.

    I’ve been wondering. How do Sam and Skye manage to keep from bouncing free when the shoulder strap falls off their shoulder?

    I’m thinking some type of glue.

      Darn fine question. Clearly too hot in Texas for a bra. Kinda surprised Skye is wearing anything under that dress.

      Loved the first two panels. So true in many cases. I always assumed that SB had a 3 tattoo 3 piercing rule to work there. Or if your were a beta, you could substitute a man-bun.

      Anddddd, yes I do the ol’ Tuck might be in for a surprise, HOPEFULLY a good one when Skye tracks him down. It seems inevitable that when lib girls wise up they look for an alpha authority figure.

      Daddy issues?

      That looks to me as though the breast of a nursing mother has freed itself for all to see.

      Society is made free and kept free by enough good people with guns.
      Skye is still not totally defined as to where she stands on that matter.

    Triggly Puff… I used to mockingly say “her parents must be so proud” but sadly they probably are…

  • June 11, 2017 at 1:50 am

    Well, I suppose with a dress like that, and boobs like those, and a certain sort of mindset, that is a practical carry mode.

      Skye’s wearing camo panties and showing them in public.
      I swear she’s a few marbles lite. Mom said never show underwear in public so as not to get a certain type of reputation.

      • June 11, 2017 at 1:19 pm

        Well, she did say OC. Panties b/c muff-carry is dangerous.

      • June 11, 2017 at 1:31 pm

        Nevermind. I though she was doing her appendix-carry in her camopanties. Now I see she’s wearing a tacti-corset.

        Still gotta lift the dress for it to be OC…and of course to send the womyn apoplectic…”see?”

        Ewww Gross. I didn’t think Skye was an “any port in a storm” woman and is trying to attack heifers.

        Consider this from a tactical viewpoint. Mugger is coming, Skye lifts dress….How long to you think it will take for the mugger’s line of sight to rise above crotch level?

    Never heard term “Trigglypuff” before and after doing the research, I’m sure I really didn’t miss much – yet it was an interesting & enlightening intellectual exercise. TY, yet again, Mr. Muir, for your marvelous work in writing, satire, creativity & art. DbD is more important than my morning java and … very seriously, Chris … I do believe the spirit & talents of Thomas Nast were resurrected in your soul.

    Chris, better framing on that fourth frame, man! Just a little taller, so we can see more in the vertical.

    And, interesting thought on the sheriff. I note her indoctrination still has some hooks in her: “is that cute sheriff still running things around here?” Authority figure with a gun must run things.
    Yep, still some totalitarian left in her.

    (Oh, it looks to me like Skye is still rebelling, just in a different direction. Gotta get some real principles growing in there before she goes and does something dumb [again].)

    er… I don’t see any concealed carry in panel 4.

    Dropping your blouse, that’s an interesting variation on the “Supergirl carry” (Gun under the boobs, rip the shirt open for access.)

    Anyway, you are aware that removing tats doesn’t return the skin to normal, right? Artistic license, I guess.

    If Skye has that look on her face I truly hope Tucker has been taking his vitamins.
    And I hope he is carrying specialized concealment gear.

        And add Super Male Vitality, some advanced vitamin-mineral formulations and maybe some extra stuff to add to his health and strength.
        It does not hurt to prepare to be up for the challenges.

      • June 12, 2017 at 12:10 am

        “…extra stuff to be up…”

        A “preparation” I have so far resisted.

        But, unlike the inanimate hardness of Ruger steel referenced above, with more animate variables I guess improvements sometimes are.

        Not ready for that yet. But we’ll see.

    “Their estrogen throws off her cycle”
    “Beta luck next time”.

    And the rest, equally so.

        I use DuckDuckGo for the same reason… no tracking…

        Since Google embraced the Dark Side, I try to minimize any exposure to them.

        Although the Bronies deserve a bit of derision, in my experience, they aren’t part of the Social Justice Wanker crowd. Many, if not most, are gamers and/or anime fanboys complete with neckbeards and pallid skin from their many hours in their room in Mom’s basement…

        Trigglypuff, however, is full-on SJW land whale. There is a lesser known creature called Smugglypuff as well… Not quite as massive as Trigglypuff but more mendacious.

        There was a time that females like that joined a religious order, or did charitable works as a missionary. Or jumped the first guy that asked them to marry.

      • June 11, 2017 at 6:09 pm
        Brett Bellmore

        My sensei warned me about that. Said that their legs were incredibly strong from walking around carrying all that weight, so they could sprint across the room as fast as anyone. And once they land on top of you, it’s all over.

        They can embrace humanity also.
        That WW2 time frame female baseball team movie had a home run hitter who was plus sized and grew up on their farm with her dad, the high school baseball coach. She grew as a person on the circuit, was helped by the etiquette lessons and her teammates who cared for her. Then she met and embraced a man who thought that she was the most wonderful girl in the world. The wrap up showed that they had a wonderful life.
        Or they can descend like trigglypuff types.

        A League of Their Own. Great Movie
        I have a cousin who at 16 was 6’2″ and 225 lbs. She could pull calves and shoe horses and throw bales of hay better than some men. The family despaired she would ever marry due to her size and “plain” looks. Many of the older female relatives suggested she join one of the Nursing Orders since the chance of finding a husband was rather sparse. She wore her copper penny red hair in a waist length braid and green eyes. Ended up eloping with a War II Vet missing a leg and facial scars. They had 18 kids and were married 50 years.

        Then there was the hard of hearing farmer’s wife who had 18 children.
        Every night when they went to bed, the farmer would nudge his wife and ask “Do you want to go to sleep or what?”
        Of course she always answered “What?” 🙂

    Who gave Skye a weapon? I don’t think that having her armed is a smart thing to do though it is her God given right. I would have just have had the Sheriff do a little more deep vetting at night in a raincoat.

      • June 11, 2017 at 10:21 pm
        NotYetInACamp

        Me. I usually wake up myself. Most of the nightmares are rehashes and new variations of how family members did or the results of their doing dishonorable things. They are mostly just reaffirmation of their bad decisions now. Ones that I would have never made, nor did ever make.

        Now Skye up there. Either one given with gusto would be a pleasure for any of her family members.
