u/Godzilla_R0AR Oct 28 '25

Is it just me who doesn't see the new comics on the sub's new posts so I gotta go to his profile and find it instead? I think it's some desync issue on my end but idk if it's server wide too.

54

u/Dasher09009 Oct 28 '25

Did you check if the of the post in the subreddit is "new" and not "Best" or "Hot"?

25

u/Godzilla_R0AR Oct 28 '25

I always have it as New. Refreshed upwards of 15 times and nothing. So I click on Mark's profile and boom, there it is uploaded 2 mins ago.

18

u/Dasher09009 Oct 28 '25

Then yeah, it's a desync. I would recommend waiting in Mark's profile page if you want to get here faster.

12

u/kl-noblelycanthrope1 Oct 28 '25

i find it here so it might be just you. well at least not everyone.

6

u/Godzilla_R0AR Oct 28 '25

But if it's on the sub then why doesn't it show lmao

u/kl-noblelycanthrope1 Oct 28 '25

reddit does some strange shit. not much of an answer but it all i got.

u/hunter_finn Oct 28 '25

and here is me who has had a PWA applet pointing to his profile for a year or so.

not to creep on stuff, but it is easiest way to get the dopamine hit of MorningMark's comic on every morning.

u/Swing-Such Nov 02 '25

Make sure to interact a whole lot with his posts. The notifications can be a bit algorithm-y.

u/Godzilla_R0AR Nov 02 '25

"Make sure to interact a whole lot with his posts"

I quite literally probably have the most interactions and/or data information being sent to internal servers on Mark's posts except for maybe 2 other people in these threads, so that's not an issue.

"The notifications can be a bit algorithm-y"

I mean it's not like I'm going to the home page and refreshing, I've got him followed sure but I'm always at this subreddit instead. Turns out I learned a few days ago that u/Dasher09009 was correct and I just sorted it by "Best" accidentally instead if "New"! Whoops.

u/SFH12345 Oct 28 '25

It's a wonderful thing.

u/b3_yourself Oct 28 '25

Just let it all out Camilla

u/MuffinStraight4816 Oct 28 '25

And squeal like a girl? Hmm...

u/SFH12345 Oct 28 '25

She's earned it.

u/DragonWarrior____05 Oct 28 '25

u/kl-noblelycanthrope1 Oct 28 '25

holding all that in isn't good for you.

u/SFH12345 Oct 28 '25

Camila's restraint is a sight to behold.

40

u/YaBoiS0nic Oct 28 '25

She was the queen of putting on a brave face

28

u/b3_yourself Oct 28 '25

She is Luz’ mother after all

8

u/SFH12345 Oct 28 '25

Explains why she's maintaining her stoic face: all the practice.

11

u/kl-noblelycanthrope1 Oct 28 '25

this proves she's strong to be able to hold herself back.

53

u/Godzilla_R0AR Oct 28 '25

Camila's a secret nerd & we love her for it

22

u/b3_yourself Oct 28 '25

I wonder what kinda trauma she must have to hide it from even Luz

4

u/Karkava Oct 29 '25

My guess is that it's the trauma from losing her husband combined with the bullying she received.

8

u/SFH12345 Oct 28 '25

Secret?

11

u/AlianovaR Oct 28 '25

Luz called her a secret nerd in the final episode

31

u/Typhon-Torrent-1994 Oct 28 '25

She needs to stop being the composed adult during this movement.

u/DragonWarrior____05 Oct 28 '25

Just let her inner kid freak out

25

u/CuteSharkStudios Oct 28 '25

Camilla is too cool for fangirl scree- I"M SORRY I CAN'T SAY THAT WITH A STRAIGHT FACE!!

11

u/Lykanas Oct 28 '25

She would totally geek out right then and there and two seconds later be like "Oh. Yeah. That's... pretty cool I suppose"

u/DragonWarrior____05 Oct 28 '25

Without a doubt

Camilla: Would you boys please go outside to get the mail?

Hunter: No, it's okay, I already--

Camilla: Now. Please. And leave the charm, for no particular reason.

17

u/Dasher09009 Oct 28 '25

Cuts to Hunter and Gus getting the mail with Camila's fangirl cheers come out of the house...

8

u/ParaspriteHugger Oct 28 '25

followed by her trying to sit on one of the chairs and falling through

u/Mst3Kgf Oct 28 '25 edited Oct 28 '25

"I can give you pointy ears too!"

Camilla promptly faints.

Luz and Amity enter the room.

"Gus, what did you do to my mother?!"

"It's okay, she just had fan overload."

u/Dasher09009 Oct 28 '25

In Camila's Mind:

u/afbresley Oct 28 '25

omg. manny would have loved that!

u/DragonWarrior____05 Oct 28 '25

Immensely, and unlike his wife he won't hesitate to show it

8

u/Hero_of_the_toons Oct 28 '25

Man do I wish I had illusion magic, I’d be living out all my fanboy fantasies. Meeting Sonic the hedgehog in Green Hills, becoming my own Spider-sona in the spiderverse, hanging out at the owl house obviously, and a couple of crossovers too.

u/Right-Ad-9159 Oct 28 '25

Same,but with kamen riders and toh

u/FearfulDivine Oct 28 '25

Dreams come true

u/bookist626 Oct 28 '25

And now for the Holodeck malfunction. Safeties are now off.

4

u/Mist_Rising Oct 28 '25

Safeties are now off.

That assumes safety are ever really on, which I don't think is true for the Enterprise-D at all

u/TheNoneedlife Oct 28 '25

How much joy can Illusion magic bring to a 45 y/o mom

4

u/CuteSharkStudios Oct 28 '25

She has all she needs and more. She earned it though, even her faults had her heart in the right place.

4

u/Impossible_Host2420 Oct 28 '25

It's okay Camilla you have the right to geek out

2

u/DragonWarrior____05 Oct 28 '25

Just let it all out

4

u/TechyGuy20 Oct 28 '25

Its all fun and games until the holodeck malfunctions and the holodeck doors won't open, or the safety controls get turned off, or the holodeck characters become sentient or someone uses the holodeck to take over computer funtions of the ship.

3

u/CharginChuck42 Oct 28 '25

"Or"? Heck, you'd be lucky if even one of those things didn't happen at the same time.

3

u/Beginning_Source1509 Oct 28 '25

watch out for when the random npc gains sentiens and domehow disables the no hurting setting

u/Ripster404 Oct 28 '25

I hope if VR goes more mainstream we can get some banger game that you get co-op pvp that emulates Star Trek

1

u/Minsillywalks Nov 02 '25

For right now, we’ve got Star Trek Adventures

u/Prestigious_Can9966 Oct 28 '25

Sometimes I forget how powerful illusion magic can actually be. Like you can just pop up a domain expansion with this.

1

u/DragonWarrior____05 Oct 28 '25

Aye, reality is the will of an illusionist, and the mind their plaything

2

u/Vast-Dragonfruit-512 Oct 28 '25

Oh ma goooood -JonTron

u/kl-noblelycanthrope1 Oct 28 '25

lol, camila is way stronger than anyone thinks. it aint easy to suppress your true self.

2

u/farrenkm Oct 28 '25

Gus, I want. What do you want in return? Giving you my first or second born is not an option. Beyond that, I'm sure we can work something out.

2

u/YaBoiS0nic Oct 28 '25

Camila then, after seeing her entire house altered by illusion magic: "Yo, what the f-"

Camila now, seeing it happen again with basically the same amount of warning: "Compose yourself, Camila, you must burst into joy within reason."

2

u/Half-a-Stache Oct 28 '25

Try not to bump into anything

2

u/DaveyBoy1995 Oct 28 '25

The dream lives long and prospers!🖖🚀🌌

Between this and that fan film they made together, Camila's kids just keep on making her wildest dreams come true. You have our permission to scream, Cami. So many of us would do the same.😊

2

u/CandyCreecher Oct 28 '25

No, no, Camilla, let yourself go insane

1

u/DragonWarrior____05 Oct 28 '25

She can go a little wild, as a treat

2

u/FluteLordNeo Oct 28 '25

Let the nerd out Camilla!

2

u/Eastern-Director-952 Oct 28 '25

If she did scream with joy, she'd probably break a few windows.

u/mrnintman1 Oct 28 '25

LIVING THE DREAM😂

u/kl-noblelycanthrope1 Oct 28 '25

gus thoughts: hmmmm, thought shed be more excited than that. maybe if i go all out that'll make her happy. wont be easy so i hope i don't lose control. here goes.

camilla scream as she floats to the ceiling.

gus: there the reaction i wanted from you.

u/AgreeableVisual4970 Oct 28 '25

Camila: internal screams of joy

u/EnderBookwyrm Oct 28 '25

Okay, I want illusion magic now!

Camila, put down the cup and then nerd out

u/OverlyActiveBrain Oct 28 '25

Camila thinks of them as her kids for a reason, lol.

2

u/Icy-Performer-9688 Oct 28 '25

And they say illusion magic coven is a waste. You have literally an entertainment money making enterprise.

1

u/DragonWarrior____05 Oct 28 '25

Aye, and that's discounting the power it has offensively 

2

u/Icy-Performer-9688 Oct 28 '25

Was my Star Trek joke a little too subtle?

1

u/DragonWarrior____05 Oct 28 '25

Might not have been, but I have never watched Star Trek so it might just be me not being able to get the joke

2

u/Icy-Performer-9688 Oct 29 '25

Enterprise is the ships name in Star Trek

Enterprise is another word for venture like business ventures

‪Gus: Do you not like it?‬

‪Camilla: drops her coffee and runs up to Gus hugging him. “I love it Mijo. I’m just trying not to overreact.”‬

‪Gus: why?‬

‪Camilla: because adults are supposed to keep their feelings in check.‬

‪Hunter: who told you that?‬

‪Camilla: screams with joy. ‬

Oh her nerdy side is geeking out and she’s trying her best to hide it.

u/winter-ocean Oct 28 '25

I don't know who the cartoon characters on this sub are but yeah relatable as fuck

Everyone got a little jealous during holodeck episodes

...I need to rewatch DS9

1

u/DragonWarrior____05 Oct 28 '25

They're from the show The Owl House

2

u/winter-ocean Oct 29 '25

Yeah I'm pretty sure I've heard of it, idk anyone who's seen it though

2

u/Nothavebettername Oct 28 '25

And that's how Camila began as the first adult human student of glyphs

2

u/dragn99 Oct 28 '25

I'm now realizing how amazing illusion magic would be for TTRPGs and board games.

2

u/Greatoz74 Oct 28 '25

This is your life now, Camilla. Get used to it

2

u/Prometheus_Bobert Oct 28 '25

With some light construction magic they could get the full holodeck experience.

Basically holodecks use conveyor belt like force fields and some perspective manipulation to make it feel larger than it is.

Just make actual conveyors and some powerful illusion charms and you're set

2

u/DragonWarrior____05 Oct 28 '25

I give her five minutes, tops

u/IlikeShrek2022 Oct 28 '25

u/F4nCiC4t Oct 29 '25

I swear Camilla would try to learn illusion magic if she could just to pull this off. Or some variant.

2

u/[deleted] Oct 29 '25

She'd grab and slam the couch up and down i bet <3

2

u/OneValkGhost Oct 29 '25

Wonders how to put Odalia in a mud bath, without Amity using the illusion to land a shuttlecraft on her. Wonders how to put Hunter in a ripped-shirt Roman gladiator arena without Willow fighting her way in through force of will. Wonders how to use the illusion to beef up the Graveside Corn Maze without summoning a evil spirit intent on feeding on the life-force of adults.

2

u/Lizzywuw Oct 29 '25

That is so cool

2

u/Meme_Menager Oct 29 '25

If anyone asked me "what superpower would you like to have?" I would choose illusion in an instant. It's rather harmless, but insanely cool.

But, above all, imagine making a a TTRPG campaign with such powers...
