The doors would be taken off their hinges; Rumpelmayer’s men were coming. And then, thought Grrl Dalloway, what a morning–fresh as if issued to children on a beach.
Ooooh, and then Grrl could build a big yarn stash to the moon that she would climb and from the moon contemplate the earth in several works of crewel that would earn her fame and promised riches back on earth for which she would climb back down her stash only to discover that the world had already moved on which would cause her to bemoan the irony of her cruel creweled world.
Great strip, but I find myself agreeing with someone who commented on their declining posture a few strips ago- not to be a miss manners, but why are they always stooping now? Is the cold shadow of death weighing on their souls?
I am obsessed and delighted with the creations of man and nature and all and also comforted by the irrelevance of it all as told by the stars. Does this even make sense? I can’t figure it out but fortunately it’s a nice way to live.

Every time you (Dorothy) make stars I appreciate your strokes even more.

Expression on Grrl’s face in the main (fourth) panel, next to Girl’s placid expression: Peanutsesque.

The existentialism present in this comic is palpable.

Knitting’s great. Keeps you busy and not thinking about the void.
Nice comic.

At least if Grrl could knit, she might be able to keep warm in the cold shadow of death.

Girl (and Grrrl for that matter) needs a chiropractic and she needs one NOW.

And by that I mean a chiropractor.
