Is schlock mercenary ending? Latest strip is talking about starting the final book. Would really be end of an era.
He's said it's the end of the 20 book arc. It'll be followed by something, but it'll supposedly be something that doesn't involve a nineteen year archive crawl.
Also, considering this last book started a year ago, it's not coming that soon.
Who are those people in red? Aren't Titan's soldiers always in blue?
I believe those are the Scavengers, the same baddies that attacked Ava's school at the beginning of the comic
It has been noted in the comic by Odin that the Scavenger stuff is all TITAN technology. And not like, stolen or lifted. Like, the most modern up to date stuff. And they use TITAN software systems. And TITAN communications codes.
Because the Scavengers who go around raiding planets and killing people were made by TITAN to justify its own continued existence.

Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if Labor had not first existed. Labor is superior to capital, and deserves much the higher consideration. - Lincoln
like you lied and cheated on your wife, and your wife lied and cheated on you, and you were both so stupid you managed to do that to each other
I guess you deserve each other you absolute garbage trash people
Yeah I never quite got that. They should just get divorced at that point
But they just learned that they have so much in common.
The positive interpretation of the ridiculous mess described in the song is that they were both hiding their wild personalities from each other, under the assumption that it would not be accepted by their partner. In desperation, they went to meet someone who had the same more interesting desires that they had. Realizing that A) they're both jerks but also they're the same KIND of jerk and maybe they could work with that is why the song is upbeat.
No idea how you come up with this song short of just having that exact experience though.

But even with that as a positive read, both of them went to the bar fully intending to hook up with a complete stranger based on a quatrain written in the want ads of a paper because neither of them could work up the courage to say "No, fuck yoga today. I want to hit a bar and then go get freaky on the beach.
You in?".
Which doesn't really bode well for the state of the relationship.
I don’t really the song needs to actually be happy to have an upbeat tone. Lyrical dissonance is a thing and Pop music and it’s pretty important. Ultimately I don’t think this song is saying that they stay together. We don’t hear what happens to them. It’s just about a sad situation that is funny in a sort of mundane way.
Two people who were truly in love with their spouses and somehow they messed it.
EDIT: and I categorically disagree with the idea that the only way someone could think to write this song is because it happened. The person probably wrote the first couple verses not really having any plans for it and liked the chorus and just came up with the twist on a laugh. I think you could only take the tact this song does if youre considering it entirely as a silly thought experiment. Its a what if.

Exactly, Wilbur's decidedly not wealthy, it just doesn't make any sense.

He's got whatever a syndicated newspaper columnist who had his columns back when newspapers made money makes, I suppose.
It's also NSFW, so, no link.
Funny comic but two video ads played at once

Like cheating over simple communication
And alcoholism.
I never said they were good things to have in common, just that they've discovered they have them.
