Grrl Power #1412 – Always good to learn something new about yourself
Happy Thanksgiving to Americans, if they indeed have anything to be thankful for.
Garamm isn’t, strictly speaking, a “dragon guy.” Yes, he has scales, but despite generally seeming to be a good guy most of the time, or at least an emotionally supportive guy, when he isn’t kidnapping college students, he is still a criminal, and not the kind doing something for a righteous cause. You know, Robin Hooding or freeing his people from systematic oppression or anything like that. He was in it for the money. So Maxima never looked at him in “that way.” Plus he has a weird head shape. And Maxima will likely never have a tail, so mutual disinterest there.
Also, Max might have a slight bias for gold scales, for reasons unknown.
Yes, Max does have a boyfriend currently, and she’s not the kind of woman who will use the fact that she’s only been on two dates (barely) with him and the fact that she’s 3,700 light years away off in deep space to give her a one-night stand free pass. Not that she’s ever been into one-night stands. Doesn’t mean she can’t admit she likes the way a guy looks, even if kissing someone with a snout would be fairly awkward. I assume. I’ve definitely never given that any thought. Though if I had, I assume two people with snouts could probably kiss okay. If their snouts more of less matched. Not like if a fox-person tried kissing a horse person. That would be mechanically similar to a fox person kissing a human, I guess. But I’ve totally never thought about it. I’m talking about French kissing, obviously, not a peck on the lips. Anyone could do that.
Kobold Sydney vote incentive! Is finally done!
So… you know, check it out. Oh, and as usual, Patreon has a scales only version.
Double res version will be posted over at Patreon. Feel free to contribute as much as you like.
god damnit dave! now im horrified by the difference between a chicken giving a “peck” on the lips or frenching a bull terrier…..
Depends on which one is doing the frenching :P
In my experience, bull terriers (a lot of dogs of all breeds really) will enthusiastically french anything and anyone that gives them the opportunity
‘Liking’ how someone looks does NOT automagically mean you want to attempt to mate with them (or, even lewder, hold hands!), it just means you like how they look
You tell ’em! I don’t see Max cheating on the doc tor boyfriend. (Although, she might. She hasn’t expressed her opinions on hook-up culture.)
Is he right-handed? I’m asking because his biceps and triceps are a lot more defined on his right arm than his left.
He COOKS.
And seems to be a VERY GOOD COOK.
Believe me, ladies will go for a man who is able to cook us a fine dinner, especially after a hard day at work. It’s a major turn-on, no matter how well he’s built.
Intended double entendre? Dinner is ON him?
Now, now, let us have no kink-shaming here, if only because what goes around comes around… (https://www.grrlpowercomic.com/archives/comic/grrl-power-485-miniboss-fight-music-record-scratch/)
Just had a dream
In that dream using 180 motetcycle batteries and step up connectors, a high output machine gun with specilised tracer rounds you could make a plasma weapon. It wouldn’t last very long before it broke down but would last long enough to burn a whole though the target.
I sometimes dream of some future teck that the very concept wakes me with it’s simple brilance. This isn’t one of them. This is however one we can make today with todays teck.
Imagine somebody came up with a type of armor that was light enough to be used on an aircraft that would srug offf convential weapons like missles and most fire arms rounds. With teck progressing the way it isn’t far off. Perhaps plasma weapons would be able to penatrate that armor if it was hot enough with an lightning bolt to assist heating up that plasma. Sounds sort of crazy I know and a waste of $$$ but this is the US armed forces. With some things, we have money to burn. So some of you skunk works types who read this comic try it out. might not last long,but long enough, and this is somehow importent bury the batteries while in use. Don’t know why this is importent, but it is.
Armor might be like cerluminum with titanium instead with some diamonds to add stopping power?
Not really shure, strange dream.
Not diamonds, long carbon polomers wound together strength and elasticy.
love and hate this time great ideas, but forget. Writing on this page so wont bother readers now becouse every one is reading next, but can get ideas out becouse smart people read this comic and read backlog, so ideas get distrubited
I know I can’t do anything with these ideas so am putting out while I still remember.
After heating up in the armor they turn into type of diamond. Flexable diamond? Wierd.
Cook in patches, some hard, strips betwen flexable wing armor. Wings need to flex.
loosely weave the strings into a fabric put beteween layers of certainum sandwich thin, weild in oatches 1400 degree so thise patches can be turned into diamond with small area between unheated for flexabillaty. do not leave carbon weave part on outer side. Heat breaks diamonds. What the ceramic part is for.
Made up certanium part. Don’t know real name.
About why burying batteries.
Absorbs heat, partial grounding from excess energy build up, most important might explode.
Try out daisy chaining them in a circle to build up enough energy for lightning.
See why I said important to bury them? stuff might go boom. Expect it and accept it. Making it better comes later.
Perfect is the enemy of Good enough. Prove it can work, then fix problems later.
Might consider this for powering railgun.
That’s what fuses and spare parts are for.
Had a quick thought before I forget. Had a stroke. memory gets bad.
When building very small, like micro. The space between needs to be described to AI with a simple symbol.
I’m at one of those points after you wake up that your mind is very creative and this is the only place I can think of to get the ideas out there before I forget.
Know the space can be described with a 0, I’m talking about area between builds. Not stupid,science isn’t precice enough yet.
Look back to base 60. Base 10 is too imprecise.
Base 2 takes too much time.
Spent most of my life working boring nite shift jobs. Nothing but time to think. Got in the habit of trying to figgure out hard science problems.
Asto-physists are idiots to not consider EM in their math. It is the strong force after all. The galaxy moves like a wheel because of it. When I read that they where stumped how this could happen around 2007 when it was such a simple concept I was amazed at their stupidity.
Learned that working night shift gives you a %80 chance of having a stroke later in life. Overheard this while laying in bed not being able to move my right side. Wish I knew this 30 years ago.
If you have any friends or relatives who work night shift please tell them this information.
Noted and shared, Pickle. That’s a very high percentage, thank you for sharing.
What self-respecting reptile has a NOSE? That’s what the tongue is for! Space has gone too far this time!
He dosn’t have a nose. He has nostrils. All repti;es have that.
I know reptiles have nostrils. Marine iguanas are famous for sneezing salt, and they’re one of my favorite animals. Hence why I specified nose and not nostrils.
Maybe it was the front-facing shots or the way his head is segmented, but it really looked to me like they made up their own separate section of his face, i.e. a nose. As we get more panels of him, though, especially the side-on ones, that seems to not be the case. Anyway, sometimes people can actually mean the words they say.
