I’m just guessing that the talk with her mom went more toward Dad’s interests.
And that only the last few words of THIS talk were of Steven’s interest.

People are interested in what they’re interested in.
Seriously, you can talk astrophysics all day long, and some people don’t come away with anything new other than “Astronomers wear horrible shoes, did you know that? They LOOK like upscale nice shoes, but they’re department store knockoffs. Rubber soles! Rubber!”
Kara brought up exactly what she wanted to talk about with her mom. Mr. Biner brought up exactly what he wants everyone to talk about with his wife and daughter. No one’s at fault, no one’s to blame… not that we won’t try.
So… who’s side are YOU taking?
Oh, Steven, Steven, Steven… you’re about to be under a thumb, and you have no idea it’s coming.
Of course, after it’s actually happening, you may not have any idea it’s going on. So that’s okay.
Do you think Steven has Hubris’ ability to grin maniacally and keep doing whatever he was doing to begin with?
First things first- Welcome, everyone who used to see Hubris at GoComics. You had, what… ten or a dozen new strips when you got over here that hadn’t run yet at GC? So, I hope that was nice.
Second- some of us that are used to seeing four new cartoons here a week (ever since GoComics picked it up. That’s when we went to four) may have been irritated at getting three new strips here last week, like it was another of those high-deadline-and-Greg-can’t-keep-up weeks. But no! Now the deal is that we’re back to a M-W-F type schedule here at Hubriscomics.com, and Patreon.com/hubris patrons get four a week. It’s only fair. They’re horking up hard-earned shekels and bobs for some extra attention, so… there ya go.
Now, on with the show!
Kara’s acting competitive again. I think everyone’s on the same page now.
Of course, Kara wouldn’t have won at paintball… she was faintly distracted.
But let’s discuss the really important thing…
Does Bob just move so deliberately and easily that he fades into the background, or does he actually dematerialize like a swami or a yogi or one of those enlightened masters? If he’s manifesting himself at convenient places in the universe by will alone, that’s one thing. I don’t have time to become enlightened and he might as well just keep on keeping on. If he’s just humming quietly and slipping off when he feels like it, well, that’s a pretty nice bit of stagecraft, and I’d like some notes on it.
How ’bout you?
Bob know that where a person is at ‘depends’. Where do you need them to be, really? That’s where they are. You might TELL yourself you want them there right now, but you don’t NEED them there right now. You need a minute, and Bob has a sense for that.
Apparently, when people DON’T need you to be someplace, you just… aren’t. Bob’s definitely got a sense for that.
I dunno if I’d trust Bob to fix a car, or a computer, or an actual heart. But if you need him to fix your mood, or your mindset, or your metaphorical heart… y’know, I’d want him there, doing his thing.
As the night draws in, Hubris is getting cagey.
When everyone is looking for you, though, where do you go?
And when you’ve got an event to announce, where do you go?!
Ya go to the mic.
Kara said she needed to talk to somebody. I guess she was just being methodical deciding who it was she’d talk to?
What’s nice, of course, is that the last person she decided to talk to is an expert in such things, and had wine. It would have been difficult on Kara to have to circle back to someone else as the best choice.
Or start talking to utter strangers, hoping that they had wine. THOSE conversations get weird.
