The casualties of anthropomorphism keep adding up.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 13 points 3 days ago (2 children)

We've had a long line of animated characters absolutely fucking with all our developing wires when we were exposed at a vulnerable age.

I go way back, Disney's Robin Hood/Maid Marian was my problematic pubescent mind-worm. Didn't help that when growing up without school or friends or even a phone, it was one of only a handful of VHS cassettes I owned so I watched it a thousand times.

Later generations had so many others, from the mainstream favorites like Lola Bunny to more obscure ones like Minerva Mink in Animaniacs, to where we are today where I don't think I can even watch Zootopia around others without feeling uncomfortable because of how much "content" is floating around out there.

I do think it's healthy though, I think if we allowed more people to realize that their attractions are highly subjective and do not need to follow some homogeneous cultural norm, we would probably have a lot fewer people with crazy hangups and crippling insecurity about their weird kinks and desires.

Maid Marian was a fox!

[–] 9488fcea02a9@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 days ago

lol, I just finished watching zootopia 2 an hour ago...

Those tiger backup dancers to the shakira/gazelle character.... the animators know EXACTLY what they're doing.... right?

like honestly, is disney actually innocently oblivious?

[–] Zozano@aussie.zone 66 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I know him, he goes to my school.

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 85 points 3 days ago (4 children)

And people complain that Pizzacake is too bland, vanilla, and uncontroversial.

[–] not_IO@lemmy.blahaj.zone 39 points 3 days ago (1 children)

woman under scrutiny by default, what is this, the internet?

[–] potustheplant@feddit.nl 2 points 2 days ago

Could not care less if she was a dude. I just don't find her funny or interesting at all.

[–] Saapas@piefed.zip 24 points 3 days ago

Most of her stuff I've seen has been like that. Very Reddit, "does anyone else" style stuff. But I only see what pops up, her other stuff might be totally different.

Not the porn though, that was bland, vanilla but maybe not uncontroversial

[–] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 18 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Honestly, I didn't think she had it in her.

[–] MBM@lemmings.world 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

She does comics like this all the time

[–] WillFord27@lemmy.world 13 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (5 children)

How do you have a staggering 0% upvoted..? Did you remove your own god-given upvote?

... Honestly, I respect it.

Didn't she do an onlyfans?

[–] Cypher@aussie.zone 27 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

Yes but it was bland, vanilla and uncontroversial

Edit: I should mention I didn't pay to see any of it, I saw her promoting it so free titty pics were appreciated I guess

[–] naticus@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago

Which is especially funny since for some pearl clutching prudes, her having an OF at all, regardless of content, was controversial. I wouldn't sub, but that's also completely her call if she wants to be out there like that.

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

so free titty pics were appreciated I guess

Are they ever not?

[–] Slovene@feddit.nl 7 points 3 days ago

Not when I send my moobs they aren't. 😭

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

People complain that a woman comic artist isn't somehow living up to expectations that are 10,000X higher than the average "gaming comic slop" chud comic artist so every time she makes a comic that's just "meh" it's like a dinner-bell and the post gets 1000 comments arguing and debating why she's "overrated" and then the goalposts move and people start bringing up nebulous nonsense like "She's actually a terrible person because she got in a reddit argument this one time, here's a link with 50 pages of conversations, I know you want to read it all."

[–] dalekcaan@feddit.nl 43 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I like that 200% sexier implies that this character is exactly 3x as sexy as a regular cat

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 days ago

It's also possible that the mascot wasn't originally a regular cat, but an already pretty sexy cat.

[–] FreddiesLantern@leminal.space 8 points 3 days ago

It isn’t?

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 29 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

You like kissing catboys, don't you?

[–] Hazmatastic@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'm sorry, only 200%? You mean to say the original (plain old) cat was already 1/3 of the way to however sexy this one is?

[–] Barrymore@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Reading between the lines here, you're downplaying how sexy you think this cat is overall, but your shock suggests you think this cat is insanely sexier than a typical cat

however sexy this one is

Tssk, tssk. You know how sexy it is

Or you think regular cats are obscenely ugly

[–] Hazmatastic@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

W-what?? It's n-not like I think he's sexy or anything! Baka!

Nah, im just saying, someone (fictional) made a cat into a humanoid with washboard abs and a toned physique that would be the envy of many and said "yeah, not only is this cat a solid 10 but your garden variety cat is better than a 3, that's almost halfway there baybee"

Nothing against furries or anything, just saying the bar needs to be higher. Please.

[–] Zwiebel@feddit.org 32 points 3 days ago (1 children)
[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 9 points 3 days ago

I'm certainly intrigued

[–] TheSeveralJourneysOfReemus@lemmy.world 21 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I know an NSFW artist when I see it.

[–] Slovene@feddit.nl 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Doesn't she also have an OnlyFans?

[–] TheSeveralJourneysOfReemus@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Somehow reddit has a parasocial relationship with this person, they hate her. She committed the crime of being mildly cringe. And she has and OF, which i'm sure a lot of users on reddit must have seen, but they act like they're above her just because. Yes she does NSFW stuff, nothing weird tho.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I would say the majority of reddit liked her work, including me, because it was always upvoted despite a few vocal people getting their undies in a twist and complaining. Plus her comics were used pretty widely for making memes.

Never understood the complaints that she did NSFW stuff, artists gotta eat too!

To be clear not all of pizzacake's work is fun, but they have a snark sub just for her...and you know what snark sub turn into. I never understood this.

[–] rustydrd@sh.itjust.works 17 points 3 days ago

You can't tell me that the person who chose "Temptations" as a brand name for cat treats wasn't at least a little bit into Furry stuff.

[–] mech@feddit.org 23 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That cat is missing most of its nippels.

[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Gotta leave room for future enhancement, that's job security

[–] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 22 points 3 days ago (9 children)

I mean, as a connoisseur of sexy felines, uh... I erm... 🥺👉👈

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)

How could a wolf possibly fall in love with a cat?!

[–] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

It's purrfectly understandable

(I'm also part tiger and a dash of fox but shh)

That guy is a dog person. He has a fursuit at home.

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Given the number of people I have seen making allusions to themselves sleeping in the kennels they keep in their rooms...

This is just an out of touch marketing exec.

Yep.

Its cat food.

For cats.

Yep.

Mhm.

Yep thats our market demo, mhm.

[–] Sirius006@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 days ago

Is this epic furry?

[–] FreddiesLantern@leminal.space 8 points 3 days ago

And you know why they don’t work there?

Because you don’t have sexy cats to begin with that’s why!

[–] Una@europe.pub 7 points 3 days ago
[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 6 points 3 days ago

Especially like the freelancer "oh i don't work here".

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 days ago

Using the Kramer approach I see
