My personal headcanon puts it at closer to 5-6 years to account for various people having relationships.


Meanwhile in Something Positive land we have the adopted daughter of two of the main characters having her first period. They got together years after the strip started and adopted said daughter as a baby. We've seen her grow older in roughly real time. It really puts into perspective how weird comic book time makes things.
I mean, a lot of it is unavoidable. Its just not POSSIBLE to keep up with real time when even updating every day can still take a week bare minimum to cover a single day in universe. Not without massive walls of text or chapter sized updates. Or frequent timeskips where the author pretends nothing happened for a week then picks back up one week later.
