She's gotta repay the $100 she received mistakenly, plus another $100 to cover the bet she lost.

Dad gave her $100. Mom giving him $100 is just a refund, she'd need to pay another $100 to actually pay out on the bet.

Let's make this a space where it isn't. We just vibe and laugh at funny comics.

Imagine defending trans erasure simply because you believe it's performative to depict them in a non-political light.

If the comic depicted people protesting with signs demanding trans rights, or a doctor saying "I'm sorry but due to the new regulations I cannot prescribe HRT," then yeah that would have political undertones. If it depicted a dude in a red hat saying "gender is binary and assigned at birth" then that would also be political.

But this is just a kid coming out to their parents, and the parents are only concerned with what that means for their bet; implying that they accept the kid's chosen gender. If that's political, then so is parents accepting a kid's decision to study art in college, because some people make education a political topic.

If someone doesn't like your car, and they petition congress to outlaw the make and model, they've politicized a non-issue.

If you tell them it's none of their business, you're not being political. It's not making it political to tell them it isn't political.

Saying things is political.

It costs you nothing not to leave your comment. I find it hard to believe someone else was out there waiting to comment how not political this comic was.

The same way not collecting stamps, isn't a hobby. There needs to be intent and goals.
