boundaries

[ID: Three-panel comic with crudely drawn stick people.

Panel 1: A grayscale person is gesturing at a green person.

Grayscale: "NO! Away with you, greenie!"

Green: "...Pardon?"

Grayscale: "By inhabiting this public space whilst I am in it, you are in violation of my boundaries!"

Green: "Your boundaries. Against green people in general?"

Panel 2: Dramatic zoom in on the grayscale person while green watches in the background.

Grayscale: "Indeed... You see, I have a strong trauma response to the sight of green people."

Green: "What the fuck"

Grayscale: "My entire family... I lost all of them in a car accident. We were waiting to cross the street, you see. At a busy intersection.

The traffic light flipped to a green person... And they started walking, while I hesitated. Because. The truck. It wasn't stopping.

The image of that green person... That treacherous false prophet of safe pedestrianism... They are seared into my memory, and you. YOU! Are triggering that very trauma as we speak!"

Panel 3: Zoom in on green, who says:

"Even if this wasn't clearly bullshit, it would still be a terrible way to deal with your issues."
