This same shit comic keeps floating back up the s-bend. Crappy conservative messaging where accounting is valued higher than art.
A) That's not "conservative" messaging
B) It's a joke
I generally like Perry Bible Fellowship comics but this one seems like it’s either pandering to or coping with conservative messaging.

https://pbfcomics.com/comics/preserves/ incels again (and this one isn't even remotely funny, the greatest crime)
I'm starting to think this artist is a cryptofascist. Basically equivalent to rock throw
You don't seem very fun.
Who does this one pander to?
Asking for a friend
It is a message that there is no smoke without fire. The "intellectual" (note the glasses) has a seemingly convincing argument, but is shown to be a fool. The suspicion of sinful, non-procreational sex (notice the falling leaves, which do not play a reproductive role in trees) turns out to be true.
This belief in smoke without fire feeds into the conservative tenets of anti-intellectualism, the tendency to assume guilt based on prejudice and fuels paranoid conspiracy theories. It is also a meta-dog whistle confirming that yes, those other dog whistles the comic uses are really what you think and not just coincidental.
Is this one pandering to Christians?

Thank you for the links though. I’ve spent hours going through these comics. I didn’t even know I could like comics this much.
you may have heard the phrase "god works in mysterious ways". This is clearly one case of such. Clouds do not normally behave like this, it's closer to what you might think of smoke. And where do we see white smoke? That's right. When the Papal conclave has come to a decision for the new Pope.
Pandering to Catholics. QED
:p
You’re too much. :)
for the love of--
they are sheep. how much more heavy handed is it possible to make a metaphor
Remember: on the internet, nobody can hear your tone of voice. If you want your dry jokes to land, you'll likely need to use "/s" to show that you were being sarcastic, otherwise people might think you're being serious about such an obviously absurd, irrational stance, because there really are people who would believe the things you joked about.
Perry Bible Fellowship is kind of a shitpost? I mean, God makes out with a dude in the current most recent strip -https://pbfcomics.com/
...that was weird
The cosmogony in this comic is pretty close to what I believe, lol
Never seen a joke before, eh?
Idk. Not everyone has talent or the ability to gain the skill of the thing they wanna do.
Creativity is still king. But sometimes you need a day job, first
What a great joke.
So you study law to become an accountant? I figured you'd study law to become a lawyer, and study accounting to become an accountant.
I think the idea is that it's a bad dream for him because he won't make it as a musician
Hilarious. Champagne comedy.
I could interpret the comic as more of a precautionary fiction, since it's also a pun about dreams.
