Why does those type of people have such a distinctive ugly face?

[–] [email protected] 74 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Pizzacake characters or right wingers?

[–] [email protected] 69 points 2 months ago (5 children)

I have some trauma because she rules /r/comics with an iron fistfull of mods protecting her from any criticism at all and got litigious about parody edits.

[–] [email protected] 44 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Just don't go to reddit, the only time I see her is when you weirdos post the slop here

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I don't anymore, should've used past tense.

Oh well she has her fans too here it seems.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I downvote wherever I see her stuff lol

Yeah she was very pro-reddit during the API protests too.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Surprising considering she tried to sue them.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago

She might be a bit of a dramatic person

[–] [email protected] 25 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 27 points 2 months ago

She's usually fine and I'm not gonna say she's not funny because humor is subjective, but she had some comics that came across misandrist and no critiscm or questioning of that was allowed.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

So she's the new SrGrafo?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

C&D or actually filing suits?

Parody is explicitly excluded from copyright.

IIRC she threatened to sue bonehurtingjuice moderators, but idk the specifics. BHJ mods caved.

Idk, narcissistic assholes that try to get a raise out of everybody but are offended at everything themselves.

They always seem to have the same stupid caricaturable face.

[–] [email protected] 42 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Please don't start with the pizzacake shit here, too 😭

Such a thin-skinned creator with weirdly obsessive fans. Everything about her online presence makes me uncomfortable.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 2 months ago (3 children)

It's also just not good art. The style is extremely bland, and the humour just... Isn't humorous.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I said it elsewhere, but they all feel like they've been AI generated, but made by a real person. They're wildly uninteresting to look at and painfully unfunny.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

Yeah, that's exactly the vibe I get.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago

Those weird little smiles she draws really freak me out.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

Some people love the "Every panel is the punchline" kind of material. It's very CTRL+ALT+DEL coded. Maybe give them another few years and we'll get a new Loss out of it.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago (4 children)

gonna be honest, I'd rather have not known about the drama. Separate the art from the artist.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Weird to say that when the artist has made the art the key point in the drama. The 'art' kind of is the drama. Especially the debate on if roughly drawn comics that don't have punch lines even are art. The way I feel about them is as if they're AI slop, but done by a person. Most of them don't even make sense, but get so much attention.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

i still don't care about the drama.

Ah Pizzacakes comics are always so fun and entertaining to read.

Edit: wording

Shouldn’t be too long before she finds out you can’t sue a lemmy community.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 months ago (1 children)

can we not do this kind of low-effort slop on Lemmy too?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (21 children)

Leftists are the only one trying to fix the boat. The liberal will say we must compromise with the shooter, and try to vote him out of the boat in four years.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

which they will immediately fail by trying to appeal to his cult that will never stop voting for him at the clear and undeniable cost of alienating their own voters. maybe a dick chaney endorsement!!

I don't understand the point of these paper-thin political comics. They don't make me laugh and they don't have a real message.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 months ago (1 children)

People aren't sharing them because they find them funny, they do it to share their political views.

Without realising they're preaching to the choir.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I don't think a comic has to be funny per se. That's why I also pointed out it has no substance. But yes preaching to the choir is a good way to describe what's going on here as well.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Comics don't have to be funny, they can be used to show a message/point of view. A great example I can think of is "Maus".

And if you don't like/get the message, that's fine. To each their own.

Will I get sued if I say pizzacake comics are shit? Because that's what she was threatening to do to a subreddit

Please no vitriolic PCC here, her fans are so toxic

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago

You seem to know a lot of lore here I've never heard of this person.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago (2 children)

It managed to describe how Trump fans and tankies act towards progressives at the same time.

We live in an era where media with certain themes always seem to get an absurd amount of negativity, with plenty of dumbasses to blindly follow it without ever thinking to stopping and thinking about where a lot of it is coming from.
