@fragamacrunch @lynnesbian I like this comic because it's been so decontextualized that it looks like Paul is being a truth teller but in reality he's just a irony bro shitting on people for having a life when he doesn't.
@_ampersand @lynnesbian@deadinsi.de but it’s both, isn’t it? Paul is applying truth unfairly to lash out at his friends.
This is going to sound sarcastic, but I mean it genuinely: I am very interested in your takes on PfSC, I don’t meet many people with thoughts on it
@_ampersand I’m the same way, can’t really go back and reread them.
You’re probably right, I think. Paul thinks he’s a bold truth teller, but he’s really just bitter. I remember rooting for him, hoping he finally finds something to really satisfy him, but between between his own attitude and the crappy world he lives(?) in, you know you can’t expect much. I like your comparison to a Ligotti character.
