Where's this child porn stuff coming from for the Hazbin Hotel lady, when I looked, I saw people clarifying on it and it seems like it was a 16-17 Y/O character with a 20 Y/O one or something, when she herself was was like 21, which if that's really it I dunno if I'm all in agreement on stringing someone up for drawing porn, weird as it may be of their OCs, when they the artist are also still in the immediate age range of said OCs.

are you really going to defend people in their 20s loving teenagers?

We're talking about drawings, so no, more a point of defending someone who apparently drew teenagers with barely above teenagers, while they were barely above teenage years themself. I mostly dislike it also for the "CHILD PORN" thing, when like okay, there's a whole lot of women and LGBT people who wrote about or drew weird ships, gross things and stuff like that with a lot of the time teenage or around characters, when they were younger on the also younger internet, sometimes because it was just part of their growing sexuality getting aired out on the internet for one of the first generations to really be able to do that, other times because weird slashfic and tumblr drawing poo poo was the only safe place they had to work their stuff out and it honestly feels weird to slam someone for that to me.

Again, the creator only did it once or twice and later on realized why it was bad. She has not done it since.

Honestly part of why I'm really leery on this stuff is again, so I'm trying to find source on the claims about the creator once again, some of the very first results are a 4chan archive, encyclopedia dramatica, kiwifarms and then other times when I find people actually trying to expound on these things, I find stuff like "Both of the characters from her comic are of age. The "girl" (who is actually a boy) is 18 and the teacher is 19 (and also happens to be snake human hybrid thing wtf vivzie)." and I start to think that some of this is channer word of mouth poo poo that mutated because a queer/lady/furry creator made weird things when they were younger. If I'm wrong then okay, but a lot of the "OH MAN THEY'RE A PEDO BESTIALITY etc. WEIRDO" sources are coming from places I'm not really immediately leaping to trust on their judgement.

I know but it still gets tiring to hear "HEY DID YOU KNOW THE ARTIST DID A NAUGHTY 2 YEARS AGO" after a certain point.

Like, gently caress, I don't care. Unless they're an actual kiddy diddler or a white supremacist then shut up. It just turns into stupid tabloid gossip after a while.

I'm genuinely not sure how to explain why "harassing someone and actively trying to get them fired and ruin their career for a mildly hosed up thing they did several years ago that hurt nobody" is a bad look, op, especially since there is a cornucopia of actual horrific people in that industry you could actually focus on

Ricky Gervais went through a similar thing a few years ago when he had his photoshoot about being a persecuted Atheist, where he decided to namesearch and reply to people making fun of him over that.

What's really doofy is Lindsay didn't call him out specifically, but retweeted somebody else pointing out the tired 'Well *I* identify as <'hilarious thing people do not identify as' here>.' So Ricky took the time out of whatever he does all day and then took an extra step.

Bakeneko posted:

I’m only a little ways into it so far, but based on what I’ve seen I have to say I’m a little disappointed, especially by the comedy.

You know how in the Fallout games you would often run across ruined offices or factories and there would be a few silly terminal entries talking about how bad the company was, or how dangerous the product was (usually due to it being radioactive) or something along those lines? Well that’s basically this game’s sense of humor in its entirety. "LOL this corporation sure is poorly-run" ad nauseum. It’s like they want to tell a very dark cyberpunk story about evil megacorporations and, well, that’s kinda boring and played out at this point but whatever, I could go with that, but instead they have to turn everything into a joke. Like a knockoff Futurama.

The modern Fallout games (at least 3 and 4, can't recall for sure with New Vegas) were also sort of a departure from the style of humor in the original 2 Fallout games Black Isle did, at least according to Tim Cain.

Also, I feel like the thread is rapidly speeding downhill.

Gervais has been bad for a very long time.

Parakeet vs. Phone
Nov 6, 2009
I'm afraid that they're lost to time, but Ricky Gervais did new lead-ins for Adult Swim when they did a run through of the British Office about a decade ago. For each episode he talked for about a minute about a neat fact or what he liked about the episode. The really strange thing was that he seemed to show his hand that he didn't think David Brent was that bad of a guy. He seemed to keep sincerely defending him in several of the intros and didn't seem to realize how obnoxious and awful he was. He got a little upset in one and went in on how they had to do an episode to make Brent sympathetic, because he was tired of viewers just hating him when really he was just a slightly awkward man who people should have liked despite it all.

It really lent to the theory that a lot of Gervais' early humor came from how clueless he was about his own shittiness.
