They want to have their cake and eat it with “TERF.” They want to use it as a slur and for people to receive it as a slur, but they don’t want it classed as such because then they can’t use it.
its the same situation as the 'u cant be ___phobic towards a majority group!'
they dont care abt how what theyre doing affects real people, only focusing on the langauge
u physically CANNOT do a thing if a thing is defined as something u cant do, right?
if i slap someone in the face and they say i punched em i could go on about how 'well no, a punch means i hit u with my fist... i couldnt have done it' thats great and all but it doesnt change the fact that i hurt them now did i
sophie does this a lot, focusing less on actual real life consequences to her actions or whats actually happening and more on nitpicking language, both in shit like this and her activism
which isnt really something i can blame her for ngl... that IS a common symptom of autism... am not even tryna be funny rn
Every "series" has the same backdrop for the whole run. There was a time you could edit a real story into the pages Billy gave us a la the summer camp monster story. Now? What's even the point? If Billy's plan was to bore us into leaving his comic alone he may succeed at this pace but I doubt he'll ever redouble his effort to make up for the over a year of slack.
u couldnt edit any of what weve done with the camp story into any of the new comics, but u could edit any of the new comics into eachother and it wouldnt make a difference
do u think shes doing it on purpose?
totally a defense mechanism against having her art butchered, like all the other genius things she does.... like save as JPEG
at the risk of :powerlevel: imma go ahead and tell u guys my mate got himself a commission from sophie
i wont show it so believe me as u wish but lemme tell u not only did the thing look just as bad as her current stuff, with is, alright, subjective
but whats NOT subjectively bad practice is her sending him the actual full file he paid for as a jpeg
i was under the impression she might actually have saved quality versions she keeps for publishing, and posts shitty jpeged versions online
but no
i now think sophie just... doesnt know how to save a goddamn photoshop file....
