In the Weird Luck webcomic, the biggest & most beloved holiday in the city-state of Tal Sharnis is called Salvage Day. It's a celebration of cooperation, sharing, & survival.

Agent Sojac's family consists of herself, her mom, & her sister. Mom & sister are bohemian & anarchistic, deep into arts & literature; Agent Sojac, the athletic & ultra-responsible Reality Patrol agent, is definitely the odd one out.

Most people assume that the orange stripes in Agent Sojac's hair are dyed, but they're not. Black-with-orange-stripes has been her natural hair color since she was born.

All 8 members of the Weird Luck webcomic's main cast are keeping major secrets and are very good at doing so... except for Charles.

In this week's page of the Weird Luck prequel tale A DEATH-PRIESTESS WALKS INTO A PUB, a death-priestess does indeed walk into a pub, where she finds a strangely nonchalant barkeep.

The Weird Luck characters who've most often surprised me so far are Bianca & Angelica.

Interesting that they also happen to be the 2 members of the main cast who DON'T have Weird Luck!

Agent Sojac's mother, Natalie Sojac, is a beloved celebrity throughout the city of Tal Sharnis.

Agent Sojac is one of the few citizens who's NOT a fan.

We'll meet Natalie in Weird Luck Volume Three.

Dramatic moment from the very first chapter of the Weird Luck webcomic!

Agent Sojac's first confrontation with the mysterious Max, who's apparently got her confused with someone else.

Organized #crime is a major force in the city of Tal Sharnis. There are multiple crime syndicates, each with its own boss. We met the 5 East Side bosses in Volume 1 of Weird Luck; the West Side bosses don't play a big role in the story.

Travel north, south, or east from the city of Tal Sharnis & there's only the warped & perilous wastes of the Endless Plateau forever, though at some point you'll wander into another universe. Travel west & eventually you'll reach the Western Edge.

New unpleasant experience achieved: suddenly sneezing hard while swallowing a big mouthful of water and vitamin pills, at the precise midpoint of the swallow.

I have no idea, and now I'm really curious! Hope some Weird Luck webcomic readers will see this and answer!

Including a link to the Cast of Characters page here in case anyone needs a refresher on who's who...

Here is the beautiful front cover for SUFFERING THE OTHER, art and design by RewX. See the loaded TOC here: bit.ly/4i03e3h (TOC is also in the alt-text here). Coming February 2026, pre-order open in December. Reminder, this is a benefit for @raicestexas.bsky.social and Transgender Law Center!

Weirdly, nothing. 16-year-old me would be thrilled with 57-year-old me.
What do you like now that 16 year old you would hate you for?

CONUNDRUM by Jan Morris, one of the first modern gender transition memoirs, is a fascinating bit of historical reading.
