Grrl Power #827 – Peaches and pics
Rum raisin only works if you think peach cobbler should have raisins in it. My attitude with raisins is the same as it is with all fruit, which is that it’s not dessert unless it’s swimming in a sugar saturated glaze. Okay, a really good oatmeal cookie is surprisingly tasty, but that’s my only caveat. There’s a circle of hell reserved for people who try and serve fruit salad for dessert. And asian restaurants trying to pass orange slices as dessert? No. Just… no.
I’m not sure about mint ice cream with peach cobbler either. It might be one of those weird combinations that works well like cheddar cheese with apple pie. I imagine Harem discovered that particular combination using two different tongues and decided to try them in the same mouth. She would be the expert on weird taste combinations, as previously alluded to.
So Sydney’s glasses can do more than just display interactive crosshairs. She has no idea how to respond… by which I mean she doesn’t know how to use the interface to send a message back. And also it’s not like she’s the kind of gal to send an intergalactic sext to anyone either. In case anyone was wondering, the crosshairs and other stuff displayed to her on the inside of the glasses doesn’t show on the outside of the glasses.
Personally I’ve always been boggled by dick pics. As far as I’m aware, no one wants to see that. Like, sure, heterosexual females entering puberty probably develop a certain natural curiosity, but I always imagined after googling the subject matter the first time, the reaction is something like “…….huh.” or “……okay….” or even “Ew.” It’s not a handsome protrusion. If it’s the beginning of a relationship and both parties are still in that… third-date-everything’s-new-and-sexy stage, then a little digital back and forth is probably amusing, but beyond that, I assume that adult women have FAR less interest in dick pics than the men who send them seem to think.
That said, Sydney is obviously in that “wheeeeeeeners!” phase.
This was asked on twitter, but I thought I’d address it here since we’re all stuck at home and need more reading material. The question of Jabberwokky’s salary came up. Remember, she’s on a sort of work-release thing here at Archon. She got arrested after the fight at the restaurant, but unlike most of the other supers wrangled into Vehemence’s scheme, she had several warrants out for her. On the books, she’s being paid the same as the other recruits like Sydney, but about 90% her salary is being garnished until she’s paid back several medical bills and replaced a few police cruisers. Jazza wasn’t a “blow up a hospital” kind of supervillain. She was more the “knock over an armored car and hang around to scrap with the police” kind. That still leaves her with a few walking around dollars in her pocket, but she’s technically under house arrest (or in this case, Headquarters arrest) until she’s completed her training, so it’s not like she has a ton of expenses at the moment either.
Archon didn’t want people going out and committing relatively minor crimes in order to audition for the team, and they thought enforced compensation would diminish the number of chaos based applicants.

Who taught harem how to eat a taco? Sideways?:)
She did, four times, at once
Was it all the same taco or four different tacos?
The answer is yes.
That is the proper way to eat a traditional pre-Columbus soft-shell taco, as opposed to the newfangled 70-year-old American hard-shell abominations.
My way to make Tacos, is in a frying Pan with olive oil, put soft-shell in until the one side is warm/cooked. Take out and on the cooked side place cheese, meat, lettus, tomato, cheese. fold and warm cook both sides in Frying Pan. cheese is just starting to melt and it helps a little bit to hold everything in the Taco.
i saw that and was like “wtf is Harem doing?!”
It is easier to cram the whole thing in her mouth that way. She gets a creepy clown look if she fits it in the other way.
Cobbler is pretty much like crumble, isn’t it? Because apple crumble and rhubarb crumble (and apple and rhubarb) are amazing. With ice cream, cream, custard or all three at once.
Hmm, for some reason the reply function didn’t seem to be working properly to for me, hence this and the other random comment below. Hopefully its working now.
Well, that depends, because there are really two types of cobbler: pan cobbler and dutch oven cobbler.
The former is like a slightly wetter crumbler, but the latter is more like a pie with a crumble for a top crust.
Grunts, pandowdy, slumps, dough-boys, apple pan dowdy, the Betty, the buckle , the dump (or dump cake), the grump and the sonker. Blackberry, blueberry and peach cobbler (all traditionally, but optionally, with vanilla ice cream). Plus peach, pear, apricot, and tartarian cherry. Also tomato cobbler, which may include onion and a biscuit topping possibly also having cheese or cornmeal.
The Betty or brown Betty. Apple or strawberry Betty. Plus apple cobbler. Plus savoury versions such as beef, lamb or mutton. Sometimes with cheese or herb scone toppings.

Come on. It’s batter bread with hot, stewed fruit poured over it, topped with butter, and baked.
I think dick pics might actually be welcome during an ass licking
When Sidney said rum rasen did anyone else think of the dinner scene from Blazing Saddles
YES!
As a homosexual male, I can say for certainty that there are plenty of people who enjoy dick pics. Some of us even enjoy unsolicited dick pics — if they’re good enough. To most gay men, they are actually very nice to look at, not some weird wobbly bits that must be tolerated.
Don’t have the “gay male” perspective but I DID ask my wife about this once. She states that for the average hetero female a dick is not some ugly protuberance. It is actually about like a hetero male looking at tits, or buns. Just as YOUR brain is wired different than mine, women’s brains are wired completely differently than ours. At least, as far as “naughty bits” goes! And, as so many of my ancestors have been known to exclaim, “Vive la différence!”
I think this pic winding Sydney up is easily believable, primarily because it’s not JUST a “dick pic”; it’s a full, top-to-bottom full-body pose. Whatever she likes most, be it the cute canine face, the flexy pecs, the firm thighs, the mighty cuddle-arms, the overall fuzziness, OR the bazooka-grade puppy-maker (which I now find myself wondering if it is more dog-like or human-like)… she can take her time appreciating each part or the whole package together.
I’m bisexual and my partner is kinda ambivalent about dick pics, but really has a thing for bulge pics. I don’t really see that much appeal in them, but then also I feel the same about cleavage pics.
Try Tzimetz.
Old Ashkenazi Dessert.
Personally, I’m pretty sure it’s the inspiration for Knaphe
(the Knaphe is an improvement, but the point stands)
Carrot, grated is best but baby carrots look best.
Sautéed in butter,
you will probably want to add all the sugar there.
Personally, I don’t find it necessary.
The Carrot presents a very sweet Flavor.
Add cinnamon,
raisins and small cubes of apple to the process.
Very sweet.
Very easy.
You can say you had a whole buch of vegetables.
If the world didn’t already end, I’d go to the store and get some ingredients. That sounds awesome.
Eh, curbside pickup is a godsend.
Yeah, that sounds nice. Except the earliest day for pickup is a few weeks from now and by then I’ll have forgotten why I bought said ingredients or why I didn’t just go to the store and get the food in the first place :p.
And since I’ve caught up to the comic since June of last year, I’ll ask a question that came to me a few pages ago: speaking of branding and hero logos and stuff, where did the Grrl Power logo come from, because as far as I know, no one in the cast got their powers from radioactive material.
Evidently Arianna (the Public Relations Director for Archon) had a bunch of shirts with the logo placed in Sydney’s room. The design would probably have been outsourced to a graphic arts firm specialising in trademark logos.
Arianna is all about branding.
He’s not talking about the HALO logo on her shirt, but the grrl power logo that only appears at the top of the webpage.
It’s a reference to various comic book tropes. It’s a Venus symbol for girl (grrl) combined with the radiation symbol for power altered to form a ‘G’.
go to the store, wear a mask and rubber gloves, then pretend you have a fear of crowds and people in general and do your shopping. don’t touch things or your face. clean up as you leave. going out is not a death sentence to you are anyone else. if you observe proper contamination protocol you will be alright.
Although safe use of a mask does require shaving or at least having a heavily trimmed and carefully shaped beard.
Don´t you touch that magnificent beard Shane Powell.
Ignore Yorps comment below, let the weak die but don´t touch that MAGNIFICENT beard!
How will Maxima and others react to Sydney ‘s upgraded glasses?
Depends on whether or not they see the picture.
Hopefully Sydney seems something back. And we get to see it.
Sadly, it seems like Cora forgot to include an instruction manual with them.
Not needed, it has a built-in, context-aware user guide. Clippy aside, that approach is a really good user experience.
Per the author’s blog above:
Odd food combo that works well: Root-beer and chocolate ice-cream float.
Mmmm, haven’t had a good old spider in years
Can’t blame her, this was pretty much my first time reaction to actual boobies.
Might have been the second and third as well.
Er, the mammary gland, not the blue-footed bird, but they’re interesting too.
Likewise tits. Great, blue and stiff.
I have to admit, mine too, still. (and I am in my 50’s) Granted, some not so much, but my wife’s? Always, even though they are not “perfect”!
Clearly Sydney likes what she is seeing. :P
I donno, you do strawberry spareribs right, It’s sweeter and more like dessert than rum butter tarts with whipped cream.
Dabbler likes whipped cream on her tarts.
More like a sloppy Jose really
Yep… Sydney’s into curries… Or is hat a Curry’s into Sydney?
A furry into curry, clearly hairy makes her very merry. I bet she would like perry!
The fermented pear drink!
My QUESTION IS!!!! WHO TOOK THE PHOTO?
Most likely a selfie. If not though it is probably Cora, given that she is the one who knows about Sydney’s glasses, having made them for her. Although the crew of her ship are liberated enough that anyone might have taken it, she is the one who has taken more of an interest in Sydney and her affairs.
Cora is in the pool in the background.
I’m sure they have plenty of remote tools that will do the job for them. The ship could possibly take the picture itself, with a simple verbal command.
Cinnamon icecrean can be good w peach pie
Someone’s probably said it by now. I haven’t scrolled through the whole comment section.
What if Frix has some super-sexy alien-penis? Human penises look pretty freaking weird, but that doesn’t necessarily apply to all male sex-organs across the galaxy. His species is obviously sexually compatible with humans, but that could mean a lot of configurations that all fit the requirements.
If you’re not insisting upon penetrative intercourse, that opens the options up even wider. Imagine some sort of artistically curving structure that somehow clamps onto the outside of the vulva (or alien equivalent) and throbs or swirls around a lot on the top portion of the area that it’s clamped onto. Who knows what the structure would do to facilitate reproduction? But I’m sure that female humans would have an appreciation for it.
Oh, and remember that lots of guys who send dick pix aren’t doing so because they specifically think that their penis is sexy. A lot of guys do it because of insecurity, and they can interpret a big reaction of any sort as confirmation of how big and threatening it is.
Others do it as an aggressive move on whichever woman they’re doing it to. It’s a form of sexual assault that they won’t be arrested for.
They aren’t trying to pass orange slices off as dessert. Check their menu for the dessert options. The orange slices are just a palate cleanser for after your meal.
In the US Military, a person given any Article punishment can have their wages garnished by 2/3rds or more, for a couple of months. If you are convicted of a serious crime that results in prison time, you will be demoted to E-1 and only get paid $1 for the month (as I understand it). Only getting your Dishonorable Discharge after you serve your sentence.
All completely legal to, the contract you sign says that $1 is all the government HAS to pay you.
So I would be surprised if they ONLY garnish Jabberwokky’s wages by 90%. I would have thought it would be higher. (I mean; free room and board, free food from the mess hall, free uniforms. All the basics covered. Should just give her <$1000/month and still be making more than most felons in custody.)
On the other hand, we’re dealing with someone with super powers, not some random soldier who signed a contract long before the crime was committed. You can only treat someone like that so aggressively, before you’re going to have problems.
Also, she isn’t in prison until she can be dishonorably discharged. They’re trying to rehabilitate her and turn her into a valuable member of the team. You don’t accomplish that by treating her like a scrub, forcing her to live in bare subsistence conditions, while everyone around her is throwing around large amounts of money.
You need to at least give her a taste, or she won’t make it through the rehabilitation program.
There is no universal appeal among women for dick pics. Most of the time, reaction to random unsolicited pics is revulsion. (Please make note of this guys. Don’t send them out to women you don’t know, just met, or are not intimate with at this time.) That said, some women do enjoy seeing the man to whom they are attracted in states of undress. My recommendation would be if you haven’t gotten an enthusiastic agreement to let you send a picture of you genitals, opt for tease instead. Open shirt or shirtless, with pants on but maybe unbuttoned and unzipped about half way. Suggestion of, but not actually showing of genitals.
I’ve never had rum raisin ice cream, but it sounds gross to me. Maybe someday I’ll try it, but for now I will agree with Gwen that vanilla ice cream is the only acceptable condiment for peach cobbler.
Remember ‘Whatever she had, I want the same’ !, xD
In japan, fruit is considered a luxury. That alone prevents me ever visiting. That and the suspiciously effective police force.
