Any self-respecting psych student of the early 21st century can tell you that "multiple personality schizophrenia" is completely bogus. It's a pop-culture conglomeration of two distinctly separate disorders, namely "schizophrenia" and "dissociative identity disorder." I've already gotten email from people telling me that I should be more responsible, and help folks understand that these disorders are separate. Otherwise I'm setting psychology back entire decades in terms of educating the general public.

Let's pretend for just a moment that the characters in the strip above actually suffered from a REAL 21st century disorder, rather than these sci-fi ailments stemming from mind-control experiments, militaristic augmentation implants, and struggles for hardware control. In a case like that I suppose I should be more responsible.

Unfortunately, people can tell me about social responsibility all they want to. That doesn't change the fact that we're only doing what the voices in my head tell us to do. After all, we are the cartoonist, and everybody else is not.
