I understood nothing. The text sounds like total gibberish to me.
after that im also lost
Molly is MDMA,
It’s apparently burning man and all the problem guys are freaked out by the bears tripping Molly and just staring.
The last pannel, the dude on the left is a Molly bear.
There’s the missing link. It’s been about 20 years since I knew anyone who took mdma, and back then they called it eckies.
At risk of sounding out of touch, there’s no way I could have known what anything in panel 4 was supposed to mean.
Speaking as a perpetual wallflower who has never been to a rave in my life, I found it understandable. Admittedly I've heard the term "molly" in reference to ecstasy, but you see as guy wide-eyed staring at someone who looks incredibly uncomfortable about it. Seems pretty obvious that's the "molly bear" that uses "prolonged eye contact" to make "uh-ohs" so uncomfortable that they either leave or at least don't come to another one.
Understood the spirit of the comic, not the detail or terminology.
So... there was a possible way you could understand something in panel 4...
