  • So "influencers" are losing their jobs? This sound great.As for people who follows "influencers", they were braindead from start so it doesn't really matter.

  • Now I'm going to have to check what R34 have done to Kool-Aid Man...

  • you seem to be neurodivergent, normal people can only do evens and multiples of 5.

  • When I'm watching TV with friends I like to leave the volume at 9, 11, 17... numbers like that, and then act like they are the crazy ones if they get annoyed

  • I very often dream I entered a store and it had tons of old forgotten tapes of bands I never heard of and old zines

  • if it was only 1% of the planets in the universe lifeless, there would already be some sextillions of planets available for the taking, but it's more like 99.99% of the planets are lifeless, so it doesn't sound bad at all they are pumping space exploration to gather resources to increase quality of life for everybody instead just hoarding for a few rich who control the companies doing the exploration

  • I got keratoconus on top of astigmatism, so I get the glare with double or triple vision... I can't drive at night

  • non sequitur

  • Couldn't care less about what consenting adults do.

  • Stonetoss is a piece of shit, it's probably hard to even find a comic of his that isn't against the instance rules. Jago I have only seen what was posted on the community and it was just some stuff to roll your eyes at the sexist inferences (and some other stuff wasn't even bad), but some other stuff of his that were posted here on this thread are blatantly transphobic, so fuck that guy too - however, not feeling unsafe because someone posted a dumb comic on the internet, especially when it's not hateful content like what has been shared on the community, is not a privilege, it's your choice to feel unsafe - because how the fuck anyone in this community can even be a threat? If you let people get into your head that easily, you gonna have an awful time.

    edit: Never mind, I just stumbled upon a video and saw other people using the sentence “feel unsafe” and I realized it doesn’t have anything to do with actual safety, you are just saying you feel uncomfortable but being dramatic about it.

  • said every tyrant ever :P

  • I didn't follow the post to see the ratio, but I guess point 2 of rule 2 supports it... although I really don't get the "feel safe" part, are posters stalking other users and waiting for them outside of their houses or something like that for blocking people you don't like not being enough?I hope people don't feel unsafe by Joan Cornellà comics too.

  • So, upon reading further, this is not about watermarks over the content, you are just mad artists sign their work... you haven't realized yet, but you are a douchebag. My vote is to just ban whoever crops out artist names (or post an image without it and don't attribute in the title or comments) because that's a douchebag thing to do. If you hate authors just ask ChatGPT to make you comics, those won't be signed.

  • Example of watermarked comic? I don't think I've seen one before

  • Very easy: create a law that if minors are caught where they shouldn't be the parents and the minors are going to be held responsible, because raising kids is parent's responsibility.

    However, absolutely ZERO percent of the age verification laws are being put in place to protect kids. They are pushing that with sole reason to invade your privacy and monitor your activity, so any mean that doesn't accomplish it missed the point.

  • oh, this is great!

  • You can always find new instances and causes to defend, like, just the other day I saw a post on lemmy with someone saying using words like idiot, stupid, crazy, etc, is ableism, and once I met some straight edge guys that were boycotting sugar because they said it was a drug... I mean, they managed to top someone, the hard part is to top them, but I'm sure someone will do.

  • I don't think I watched the blackface episode, but if it was an accident that caused a misunderstanding (basic comedy trope) the joke was on people being over sensitive and raging without knowing and/or purposely ignoring context of a situation (I could as easily say "if you want to do something racist, just claim it was a dark elf"). What was being criticized there became the norm, and the consequences are in this thread - people can't say the name of that Agatha Christie's work in the comments, nor you can have a dark elf in Community, because context doesn't matter.

    editing a day later: This was a half-assed argument, the shows did it just because it was funny. In all the cases people jumped to conclusions that were completely fair, people should be shooed for doing what the main characters were doing, but it was funny because it wasn't on purpose, they got in a bad situation by mistake. However, the critique on this kinda of humor, and also satires and parodies that humorously references problematic stuff, because "offensive" is absolute value, is what led to "people can't say the name of that Agatha Christie's work in the comments, nor you can have a dark elf in Community".

  • That flag episode the joke was that everything he was doing was taken the wrong way. He had accidentally set on fire a flag that was behind him and tried to put out the fire, then someone shouts "Hey, there's a guy stomping the Puerto Rican flag!" and he is chased by a mob...

    It's like that Monk episode where he has to shake hands with a lot of people from a group and the last one is black, and right after shaking hands with the black person he cleans his hands with rubbing alcohol, so everyone thinks he is racist and everything he does in the episode just makes him look even worse - because it was taken out of context (he is a germophobe, he cleans his hands with rubbing alcohol after touching anything and anyone).
