The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Crazy how many folks can't scroll past something they aren't interested in. And not thoughtful critiques. Just whining really. Their delicate eyes witnessed it, thus they were compelled to come make a comment.
I don't think I'd ever find it appropriate to whine in the comments of a user's post, over a post breaking no rules. I have, and would... just scroll by.
I don't see "No Pizza Cake" in the rules... why would someone think it would just never show up?
I think it's basically internet law at this point, if Pizzacake is posted, cranky men must make it known that they find her (and her comics) cRinGe and mEdiOcRe and also she's a mAnHaTer (dontchaknow).
And yet they subscribe to her OF
No, they don’t.
So you honestly think people who can’t stand her, subscribe to her OF?
Do you spend a lot of time on Fox News? What about Teslas? Do you have one? No? Big fan of Christianity? No? Well, that MUST mean you go to church! Right?
Where do you people find this broken logic?
What I posted is what we like to call illustrative sarcasm.
And what is funny is that you think my illustrating your bad joke is a representation of what bothers me without ever having known who I am or what I’m about.
lol
I basically made you illustrate the argument against her by your own example.
I judge her on what she has said and done. You’ve judged me on who you need me to be so your opinion appears to be valid.
“We”? So, are you the self-appointed representative of just this community, or lemmy as a whole?
So I double-checked, and it looks to me like you are the one that invited yourself to this discussion with some white knight contrarian nonsense in defense of-
*checks notes,
So…. I’m not sure you want I be accusing me of “debate bro” shenanigans.
Because, from here, it seems you just can’t help yourself from responding. Trust me… bro. It’s easy to just…. Not. Go ahead and give it a try.
All you have to do, is just walk away.
Such cringe.
If you’re lucky, PizzaCake will make a comic victimizing you in solidarity!
Fingers crossed!
Look, I get your need to save some face here, and I’ll even allow for the fact that in the effort to do so- some cringe is going to seep out-
But I really think it’s best for all involved that we end this here. I just don’t see you recovering from this and I’m only getting more and more embarrassed as the picture that is you- slowly comes into focus; comment by comment, cringe by cringe.
And I just don’t really want to know you that well.
So, have a day, and take care.

i mean, the best punishment for bad art is lack of engagement.
I don't think pizzacake is a troll (as in makes bad comics so it gets negative engagement), but here we are.
People complaining about her in the comments actually helps her.
if you don't like it, just move along, don't give hold her in your head like that zen story about crossing the river with a girl.
I'll be honest, I kinda wanted lemmy to not have the same mentality as the audience of r/comics who just straight up hate all men. But it looks like these comments are kind of a warzone. I wonder if the mods from that sub have any power here? They defend her from even polite and constructive criticism.
Bro, I wouldn't call this "hate all men" content. If you think all men (or even a majority of men) are like that guy, you need to rework your thought patterns.
I was similarly disappointed. This kind of humor isn't funny at all. It's just a made up scenario to trigger people. I can't prove that it's b8 but, if it's not, it's damn close.
So just scroll past it if you don't like it?
Feeling called out?
Are you? I haven't whined on this post, so that's a weird accusation to make. Methinks you're projecting, sorry your delicate eyes witnessed an opinion you don't like.
This comic is neither funny nor thoughtful. I’d say it’s getting the critique it deserves.
I found d it funny. It's almost like funny is a subjective thing.
