There used to be a big problem of people reposting artists' work without attribution for the sake of rp or to farm engagement. The worst offenders would shoop out an artist's signature/watermark and pass it off as their own. Reposters were perfidious and annoying, often attention whores worse than your average artist, so a lot of artists adopted a hard 'no reposts' stance. I highly doubt many Zoomers or any of Gen Alpha have had to deal with this, since the people who were reposting have moved on to AI slop, but it's become a generational fear.A bit off topic here, but what is up with all of these artists writing “Do not repost my art” on their bios?
Since when is simply reposting something to another site stealing? Is it theft if I post someone’s shitty fanart on here without their consent?
"Aroace french friend's queerplatonic to her asexual and non binary, latino friend." Jeez, the amount of labels that this user had to put. Also, isn't this just two best friends moving in with each other and staying together for a long time? What's even the point of the marriage part? Its like "Guys, were not gay for each other and to prove it were going to have a "platonic wedding".

Update, I’ve learned that there are some reasons why some people might get platonically married, which includes liking each other as friends that much. My problem comes from how the artist is constantly making comics where he’s on his high horse about how “Allosexuals are SOOOOO ICKY ugh, too much romance in real life and media” and then goes and does this.
Queerplatonic marriage?!

This reminds me of someone who made up the term "platonic polycule""Aroace french friend's queerplatonic to her asexual and non binary, latino friend."

Look, a “queerplatonic” person’s view on friendship is so screwed. I remember seeing a thread on tumblr (OF COURSE) where “oh, you mean like having friends/a best friend?” was met with “no no, it’s something special! Friends are people you don’t hate that much!” Apparently the term acquaintances has slipped entirely from their vocabulary.What the fuck do they mean by "Like your friend that much"? It's called being best friends?? Just admit you two fucked and have feelings for each other but are ashamed of being "together". Weirdos.
If I got invited to a queer platonic wedding, I'm not going. Waste of time.Look, a “queerplatonic” person’s view on friendship is so screwed.

Other than that, I guess some people do get married for the hell of it? Weird, cringe, but I guess I don’t care as much if you’re not “UwU obnoxious asexual bean on the internet” about it.
I would go, because it sounds hilarious.If I got invited to a queer platonic wedding, I'm not going. Waste of time.
Scott pilgrim was such a fun comic and it fucking astounds me how every fucking awful politically brain poisoned gooner that doesn't want you saying "slurs" and fetishizes trans surgery or HRT shit latched onto it in a similar manner to shit like other popular comedy stuff. I still am baffled how this has attracted the kinda people to it that it did post being finished.OK latefagging astronomically but…. That is a fucking Scott pilgrim panel redrawas if poon sonic yaoi wasn’t already bad enough

Do they really think millions of piercings and a wolf cut will make them pass more as a man? It literally screams you're a pooner and no one ever will see you as 'cis'.View attachment 7356598

I’m so confused on what she even fucking wants? She regrets her million one night stands cause she wants to be validated in her gender-fluid identity, but also it’s “just fucking” so who cares but also what if she falls in love with the guy she’s sleeping with?
I would. Imagine being invited to a circus but the one where animals and athletes don't get exploited. A queer platonic wedding would be the funniest thing ever, free food including.If I got invited to a queer platonic wedding, I'm not going. Waste of time.
She wants a normal long term relationship. Love, sex, marriage, family, a good relationship with the in laws. All that good stuff but he thinks she is too ugly and awkward to get that so she rejects them before they can reject her. Basic low esteem girl self talk.I’m so confused on what she even fucking wants?

I saw the "anime" when it came out with a friend and it seemed less like pandering and more like a "haha funne" thing. I fucking despised the reaction to it by both sides of media coverage shit online though. I saw that shit before I saw the netflix series and it made me extremely fucking worried. Fucking one side going "YEEES BAD MAN LAME CISHET PEDOPHILE SCOTT ISNT THE MAIN CHARACTER ANYMORE SORRY CHUDS THIS IS HOW IT SHOULD HAVE ALWAYS BEEN" aaand then the other one being like " THEY KILLLED SCOTT PILGRIM! WOKE NETFLIX AT IT AGAIN! OR MAYBE IT WAS ALWAYS WOKE HMMMM?!?"I really like the OG comic but I can't say I'm TOO surprised.
Its vaguely progressive, quirky hipster background was pretty much the breeding ground for woke stuff today.
The gay stuff like Wallace, Ramona's ex gf or Knives were only gags in the comic but the anime turned them into full-on pandering and added actual gay romances with Lucas Lee.
The author himself is a sjw biracial millennial who laments having made Scott, his self insert, white. Coupled with its movie cast featuring Michael Cera and Kieran Culkin who both have a big hold over tumblr users thanks to their roles in Juno or Succession... Yeah, it's no wonder.
Doesn't take away from the comic, obviously, but... its like a less gay but equally hipstery version of Life is strange, to be honest.
Dude Wallace gets a full on gay romance arc with one of Ramona's exes, ramona has her heartfelt apologies with her ex gf and Kim shares a yuri kiss on 4K. Saliva trail and everything. You can find it funny and nobody particularly cares if you enjoy it, but it's definitely woke as fuck lolit seemed less like pandering and more like a "haha funne" thing.
aw, bummer. I wish we had gotten a closer adaptation. Stuff that got cut out the movie like the OG ending, the resoution between Scott and Kim or Lisa as a whole would've been great animated.the creator didn't want to rewrite his entire fucking comic for a netflix show
they are both microcosms of millennial 2010s hipsterism that both ended up portaying a generation and influencing it. Just like Romeo + Juliet 1996 is a microcosm of 90s pop culture as well as a trend setter.I have no clue what you're talking about with the life is strange comparison though, unless you consider "one character has dyed hair" enough for that lmao.
I still don't see it. LiS is supposed to be a super serious realistic drama thing and scott pilgrim's supposed to be just goofy characters getting up to goofy shit in a story where there is literally an evil organization that's entirely dedicated chris chan PVCC style to not letting a guy have GF.Plus, they really do both employ the exact same quirky humor. Tell me "I'm in lesbians with you" isn't something out of LiS.
Not saying it as an insult, it just is what it is LOL. it's a product of its time and copious amounts of soy macchiato lattes.
