Panel 1: Sometimes, plurality is like this! Justin: So, dinner tonight? Russet: Hmm... spaghetti sounds wonderful. Luc: (Spaghetti? Again?) Snowy: (Cheeeese!)
Panel 2: And sometimes, it's just... this. Justin: Ow, my frontal lobe. Russet: (It will pass, my dear.) Snowy: (Pain!)

Ordinarily Justin likes to post his comics himself, but things are a bit weird today so I'll be posting for him. Headaches are an understated part of disordered plurality, I feel like.
-Owen
He'll usually try to eat in the body to avoid this if he can. I think it's a caretaker thing, trying to make sure we've (or at least I've) remembered to eat. But sometimes the man just wants a snack.
-Justin
I think most of us have seen some version of this meme by now.
The text is a bit deceptive, however; Justin did the artwork here, I merely tweaked some of the details. -Russet
I'm very proud of him for letting me depict the parts he's insecure about. -Justin
I think I should work on coloring and rendering this. I don't often get to see myself presented so semi-realistically as this. -Russet
Sometimes the best thing I can do to regulate after a particularly intense therapy session is to enjoy some comfort food and have us take a nap. :)
-Russet
As I was thinking about the matter of SimplyPlural today while scrolling through the app, the fact that we used to have a friend on it happened to cross my mind. Which naturally prompted someone else to have one of those relatively regular crises that one has after making the decision to leave a toxic relationship that was benefiting no-one. Hence, the comic. But I digress.
SimplyPlural is shutting down. Truly this is a great loss for the community. We have been consistently logging our switches with it and documenting each new headmate for I believe, a full two years now. What a fantastic resource! But, change was still in the wind, so I can't say I'm shocked that yet another ending came.
On the bright side, SimplyPlural getting shut down does give us the opportunity to better sort things out, get an accurate headcount, and figure out who is still here. But my goodness, it is an incredible task. Perhaps learning a new app will do us some good.
We are considering Ampersand. Although I do hope it functions competently on a web browser, as our phone has extremely limited storage space and I don't believe it can handle both SimplyPlural and Ampersand.
Text: Panel 1: *Scrolling SimplyPlural* Oh dear, we're going to have a lot of data to back up.
Panel 2: OH GOD I CAN'T BELIEVE WE LEFT THEM
Panel 3: ...Yes. As I was saying. This is going to take some time.
-Russet
Panel 1: Justin: I can't perceive much today.
Panel 2: Justin: We barely switched... And most communication has been indirect. Lots of co-fronting & passive influence. Remy's influence: fish fish fish
Panel 3: Justin: With one major exception.
Panel 4: Justin: You have been by my side all damn day. Care to introduce yourself?! Mysterious Figure: I am... Amusing?

His name is Sisyphus. He exists because we needed another albumtive, I guess. (Technically he introjected from an EP soooo, EPtive? Same difference, just less songs.)
He seems like he's at least trying to be helpful? I think he formed to try and help me communicate with the others in headspace but so far he's only helped me communicate with the outside world--- -Justin
Same difference. -Sisyphus
No, not same difference. Very big difference. (He was intentionally calling back to my earlier remark.)
Anyway my communication problems persist, and they're especially bad right now. I can't even communicate well with my own partner right now while I'm fronting, which is frustrating. :/ I miss talking with Russet. Instead all I can hear is this guy! -Justin
Oh! Tragic. I'm sure we'll get to be very good friends. -Sisyphus
I actually do like him, I just miss talking to the others. Sigh. -Justin
Help me I love him so much, aaaaaaaaa---
Russet did most of the work on this colored version, with minor input from myself and Fox, who had to add the finishing touches last night due to exegent circumstances. I'm so happy with how it looks and I love my partner so much, I'm happy he was dedicated even to getting the details he's uncomfortable with depicted with care.
We'll be posting the portrait on the right side, isolated, to our art blog @jesse-storm shortly!
-Justin
Panel 1: (Just some stranger)
Panel 2: Stranger: Reddit. Jesse: (BODY AWARE)
Panel 3: Russet: Reddit? I am wearing a top hat, not a fedora... Odd. And how uncalled for! Justin: ...
Panel 4: Justin: Facebook. Russet: Oh! Justin.

I heard we were judging other people's social media platform usage by their appearance! /j We do look like a Reddit user stereotype, ngl. The funniest part about this is, we don't even use Reddit. This interaction was weirdly gender affirming though.
This guy also fucking walked directly behind us on the stairs all the way down, so I don't know what his deal was. The stairs are wide and we were clinging to the edge. For God's sake, man. Let the person with the cane go at their own pace. ToT
But, people in our state can be particularly rude/entitled to stating their opinion out loud about people, within earshot, for no reason. It's a habit I've picked up on myself, but one Russet finds distasteful. -Justin
I find it most uncouth! -Russet
It's just something you get used to out here. Anyway, we both thought this was a funny thing that happened. (And to clarify, Russet isn't upset at being compared to a Reddit stereotype, he's just confused in regards to our hatwear.)
-Justin
