    Couldn’t get banned from that cess pool fast enough. Sure, I’m blocked from the community spaces from some of my hobbies now, and it is quite isolating at times, but it’s so much better without that toxic shit in my life.

      It made me laugh when it was in response to someone getting mad at me after arguing, but occasionally I’d make a highly upvoted comment that was related to being trans or gay and then get them, and that pissed me off. It’s not possible to prove that’s what happened without access to server logs of course, but I for sure wasn’t talking about being depressed or suicidal or anything like that on Reddit, and it was suspicious at minimum.

      Ya, she was one only of the few comic artists I blocked as the comics never had any humor, just snark.

      Especially when it’s in response to the recent discussions about how she bots her posts to reach the front page everytime, has arrangements with the mods of the sub to remove any negative comments, tried to sue another sub for making parodies of her comics(and getting mods to ban anyone who mentions that sub in comics), makes ridiculous strawman arguments constantly(like this one), and how she uses her comic as a front for her OnlyFans.

      She’s a parasite on the comics community and she’s finally starting to be called out for it, which is why you’re seeing comics like this to try and get ahead of it. She’s just trying to shift the drama to something besides her actions. She’s hoping reframe all of her criticisms as just a bunch of maga/incel harassment instead of actually addressing any of it.

        Lots of outrageous accusations without any evidence, with a bit of misogynistic sex shaming to top it off. Methinks you’re full of shit.

          nah, not misogyny. Using r/comics for profit and advertising. Something we used to shame people for. I don’t give a fuck if she’s showing off her butthole. Power to her. But don’t manipulate your position in the subreddit for your own gains and then act like an innocent angel when called out and get people banned for bringing it up.

            Still nothing but your word that she’s “manipulating” anyone or anything.

            And, breaking news, everyone uses that sub for advertising. Do you also get this self-righteous when creators link their patreon or other socials? How exactly is OF different?

        I can’t find any information on this aside from Reddit threads and youtube vids based on reddit threads.

        It’s annoying because everyone seems to agree that reddit is shit (even people who use it addictively) [yeah that used to be me lol] But people decide it’s sh*t for different reasons… I’m assuming what you say is true, as it rings true, and that means she’s basically pretending to be pissed off at it for “based” reasons when she’s actually annoyed people point out her manipulating the site for profit - one of the main gripes people have with reddit.

        she uses her comic as a front for her OnlyFans.

        I haven’t really decided how I feel about this. Is it legit? I could see either opinion. It certainly drives her to make whatever comics that appeal to the masses. They function as an advertisement, and I know how I feel about advertisements.

        If I’m curating something that I’d publish, there’s no way in hell I’d include her stuff. Banning it from a platform is a number of steps farther than that, though.

        Artists need to make money, and there are certainly projects I appreciate where I’d encourage the artist’s method of making money. Where to find the line between the art as advertising for money and the money as funding for the art is an interesting discussion. You can absolutely tell in her case, but she shows that the line is blurry.
