      Paws clipping into each other at the beginning, hm

      Good eye! We're a bit more lenient with animated posts though since it's all very new and finicky. In this case we only see actual clipping for a few frames before the feet properly overlap, so it's honestly not that big of a deal :)

    • To me, this is the best example of what it would actually feel like to be standing in front of a creature like this in real life.

        Sofonda's license is as real as a license can be in Ameripan. Texas Prefecture ltd.'s novelty licenses are a popular educational comedy prop enjoyable by all ages, especially with their affordable price and quick delivery. The product allows anyone to visualize how awful their life would be if they existed during one of the many ancient tyrannical regimes which the humans used to wallow in, where a license was required to do just about anything.

        Children can be taught about the perils of government by giving them a super official license to speak, which you can revoke whenever they're being too loud. For those who don't have children the product can assist them in making some by acting as an ice breaker during parties. Simply flash your very own license filled with gags personalized for you, and laughter is guaranteed.

        The local government administration(?) is a a limited company, naturally! (unless all they do is manufacture novelty licenses, Amelie Jones's "medical degree" is probably of similar provenance). I've been enjoying this larger worldbuilding push since you declared your authorship, it fits the tone perfectly.

        As an aside, I initially thought "Invoke High" as a name was some obscure reference or mistranslation or something, I was surprised (and a bit amused) to read you don't have much idea about it either!

        Texas Prefecture ltd. runs a wide variety of corporate endavors, not unlike CodaCorp which owns the city and the school that the story takes place in. Their Diploma Mills teach real knowledge, they just don't check if their students actually absorbed it. The students paid for the diploma, no reason to scam them out of it and create unhappy customers. Amelie was a fast learner, but sadly her curriculum didn't include treating stab wounds, claw lacerations or bite-related maimings.

        The name "Invoke High" comes from an obscure stable diffusion UI called Invoke (formerly InvokeAI). I was its only user on the esteemed forum in which I used to post, so they named me after it. That's why certain individuals (such as user #20623, I spit on her) referred to this unnamed series as "Invoke High". I haven't used Invoke in over a year and I certainly wouldn't name this after a UI, but there it is.

        Also, all "lore" is improvised post-facto. I generated whatever seemed funny, any in-universe justifications came long afterwards.

        The premise is about a human in an anthro school, so it's the post-apocalypse and humans are super rare (maybe she's the only one alive).
        There was a lot of surprise sex and no one got arrested, so there are no laws at all.
        Everyone is behaving like an absolute dumbass, so it's an Idiocracy type of situation where the world is getting dumber.
        There still seems to be some civic order despite the lack of laws and brains, so there are corporate not-overlords keeping the peace.
        The pictures had random mixes of Japanese and American tropes, so it's set in the nebulous anarcho-capitalist territory of Ameripan.
        Only chicks are featured in the comic, so it's located in a district where males aren't allowed.

        And so on. What I'm saying is, I'm making shit up as I go.

        You should make a comic that's pure lore breakdown that slowly breaks down because the lore is made up and the points don't matter.

        Is CodaCorp a reference to the musical term DC al Coda, which means you start over, but then at a certain point you skip a whole bunch and jump straight to the end? 'Cause that sounds like it could be a metaphor for a post-apocalyptic society controlled by late-stage capitalism.

        No, I'm just having fun rhyming or alliterating their divisions and subsidiaries, Coda is an easy word to do that with. Coda Campus, Coda Commerce, Coda Condos, Coda Soda, Coda Cars, Coda Cops, Coda Courts, Coda I don't remember what else. A Coda Soda ad in the full image post #99161 came from was their first mention.

        Also, all of Ameripan's most powerful conglomerates such as CodaCorp are the exact same corporations they were back when humans were running them. They have a firm grip on civilized society because no one else can operate the human-built fusion reactors whose automated defenses splat anyone without the appropriate corporate pass, and manimals can't figure out the superscience needed to build new ones.

        Anyone who doesn't agree with their terms of service is free to leave, if another corporation doesn't accept them then Warlord Cluck-Fuck of the Western Wastes has an open border policy.

            The optimist in me says no but the herpetoculturalist in me says yes.
