        I loved the episode but I actually preferred the one about Fry’s brother more touching and sadder. I think it’s because I’ve never had a dog but my brother and I are really close.

              Here’s the Reddit rumor mill, but it’s consistently with what I’ve also heard.

              It basically boils down to his home life falling apart, him doing pornography (VGLewds) to make ends meet, the toxic stew of internet culture wearing away at his ego, and him giving up on any project almost entirely for the last four years.

              Hardly the only webcomics artist to have a tragic spiral. The Sinfest guy also really went hard off the deep end and has taken to churning out some of the most nakedly fascist comics I’ve read to date.

                I never heard any of that. His comic wasn’t super consistent but he didn’t charge me to read it so what do I care?

                His site is still up for what it’s worth, I just checked.

        It’s funny, because I remember playing Persona 5 and seeing that statue in Shibuya Square every time I’m running to the train.

        And then I visit Tokyo and there it is. Like getting to meet a celebrity IRL. Except it’s a statue. And there’s a someone next to it with an Imperial Japanese flag screaming fascist shit in Japanese. And at the crosswalk there was a guy with his dick out flashing people.

        Japan is a magical place.

          This dog is the reason Helen Keller brought the first Akita to the US, and now I’m not happy anymore. I don’t know a single Akita owned by somebody that is responsible enough for the breed and the dogs are all shitheads because of it. It’s what we pin on pitbulls and their owners, except in my (somewhat extensive, worked at a kennel 2 years, own a dog and interact with a handful of local akitas) experience, it’s pretty much breed universal. These are the epitome of working dogs and do not seem to handle a chill lifestyle well at all.

                Thank you. It’s been a few years. I’m okay but, much as I miss having a dog in my life, I don’t think getting another one right now would be a good idea for them or me. I’m sorry for the loss of your friend.

              That’s how we ended up getting a second dog when our turned 10.

              She’s 12 now and the other puppy is 2 and a total insane whirlwind of fur. So not we have to vacuum 2-3 times a week of we don’t want hair everywhere, and even then it’s everywhere anyways.

    I kinda did the opposite of this with Undertale.

    I had the game spoiled for me, so I just played the pacifist route. Every replay, pacifist. I thought about doing a neutral or a bad route, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it.

    Last time I opened the game, it was maybe my fourth or fifth time getting the good ending. I just left it there. Let them keep the world they deserved to have.

    Yes, I know it’s a stupid and illogical sentiment. Bite me.

      Dude you’ve engaged with the main theme of the game. Doing a genocide route is literally about how your devalue your connection to the game and become something akin to a psychopath because of the desire to extract as much content out of it as possible. Nothing to be ashamed of by not doing that.

      I did normal first, then pacifist. I did 10% of genocide but it physically hurt me to do that and I just couldn’t; so I watched a YouTube playthrough instead.

    The Wii Fit game (I forget the actual name) let you enter your pets and track their weight. Then they’d sometimes show up and run beside you while you were running or cycling around the island. It was a great touch.

    I can’t fire it up to look. Our tabby that passed away in 2020 is probably still on there, as is our gray and white cat, who is not doing well - we’re at the “keeping him comfortable” stage. (He’s okay for now, he’s still a happy cat, but he probably only has a few months left.)

      That was my first experience of death as a child. 5 year old me cried like a little bitch.

        My son made me promise I’d watch his dinosaur Tamagotchi while he was at school. He was paranoid of it even getting hungry.

            It died when my son left it in his pocket and put it in the laundry to get washed.

            That was a rough couple days.

            I went on a 2 week school trip and my pet scorpion was dead when I got back.

            I swear they killed it on purpose

            That’s some “Why doesn’t my son talk to me anymore” trauma.

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. 📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. 📋 Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author’s website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author’s comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists

The following artists are banned from the community.

  1. Jago
  2. Stonetoss
  3. GPrime85

It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.

Web Accessibility

Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.

When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you’re posting:

  • Markdown - Links / Images

Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what’s going on. (example)
