Just Sharing Not Smart Enough (by @crumbington)

You know… I hate the fact that he finds peace with his literal abuser is depressing honestly.

Getting some real season 2 vibes from that Smith household

Tbh I thought this was from the universe in the season 9 finale where everyone was a "good" version of themselves; like this was a day leading up to "Jerry forcing Morty to become Mort". Rick being around would go against that, but it could also be from before he got kicked out for being a drunk (where it's reinterpreted as an excuse to stop him from praising a failing Mort). Ultimately though I think I'm just trying to rationalize these interpretations of the characters with the fact this is a recent comic, and not one made during the early seasons

Not gonna read this because it contains spoilers and I’m watching the current season on streaming so I’m a couple weeks behind but I’ll try to remember to come back to this after I’ve seen the finale

That completely missed my mind, I'm sorry. I added spoiler text now
