MODERATORS
We've had a long line of animated characters absolutely fucking with all our developing wires when we were exposed at a vulnerable age.
I go way back, Disney's Robin Hood/Maid Marian was my problematic pubescent mind-worm. Didn't help that when growing up without school or friends or even a phone, it was one of only a handful of VHS cassettes I owned so I watched it a thousand times.
Later generations had so many others, from the mainstream favorites like Lola Bunny to more obscure ones like Minerva Mink in Animaniacs, to where we are today where I don't think I can even watch Zootopia around others without feeling uncomfortable because of how much "content" is floating around out there.
I do think it's healthy though, I think if we allowed more people to realize that their attractions are highly subjective and do not need to follow some homogeneous cultural norm, we would probably have a lot fewer people with crazy hangups and crippling insecurity about their weird kinks and desires.
lol, I just finished watching zootopia 2 an hour ago...
Those tiger backup dancers to the shakira/gazelle character.... the animators know EXACTLY what they're doing.... right?
like honestly, is disney actually innocently oblivious?
Maid Marian was a fox!
I'm sorry, only 200%? You mean to say the original (plain old) cat was already 1/3 of the way to however sexy this one is?
Reading between the lines here, you're downplaying how sexy you think this cat is overall, but your shock suggests you think this cat is insanely sexier than a typical cat
however sexy this one is
Tssk, tssk. You know how sexy it is
Or you think regular cats are obscenely ugly
W-what?? It's n-not like I think he's sexy or anything! Baka!
Nah, im just saying, someone (fictional) made a cat into a humanoid with washboard abs and a toned physique that would be the envy of many and said "yeah, not only is this cat a solid 10 but your garden variety cat is better than a 3, that's almost halfway there baybee"
Nothing against furries or anything, just saying the bar needs to be higher. Please.
I know him, he goes to my school.
And people complain that Pizzacake is too bland, vanilla, and uncontroversial.
woman under scrutiny by default, what is this, the internet?
Could not care less if she was a dude. I just don't find her funny or interesting at all.
People complain that a woman comic artist isn't somehow living up to expectations that are 10,000X higher than the average "gaming comic slop" chud comic artist so every time she makes a comic that's just "meh" it's like a dinner-bell and the post gets 1000 comments arguing and debating why she's "overrated" and then the goalposts move and people start bringing up nebulous nonsense like "She's actually a terrible person because she got in a reddit argument this one time, here's a link with 50 pages of conversations, I know you want to read it all."
Most of her stuff I've seen has been like that. Very Reddit, "does anyone else" style stuff. But I only see what pops up, her other stuff might be totally different.
Not the porn though, that was bland, vanilla but maybe not uncontroversial
Honestly, I didn't think she had it in her.
She does comics like this all the time
How do you have a staggering 0% upvoted..? Did you remove your own god-given upvote?
... Honestly, I respect it.

Didn't she do an onlyfans?
Yes but it was bland, vanilla and uncontroversial
Edit: I should mention I didn't pay to see any of it, I saw her promoting it so free titty pics were appreciated I guess
Which is especially funny since for some pearl clutching prudes, her having an OF at all, regardless of content, was controversial. I wouldn't sub, but that's also completely her call if she wants to be out there like that.
so free titty pics were appreciated I guess
Are they ever not?
Not when I send my moobs they aren't. 😭
You like kissing catboys, don't you?
I like that 200% sexier implies that this character is exactly 3x as sexy as a regular cat
It's also possible that the mascot wasn't originally a regular cat, but an already pretty sexy cat.
It isn’t?
You can't tell me that the person who chose "Temptations" as a brand name for cat treats wasn't at least a little bit into Furry stuff.
...and she never gets accused of giving cats unfair body standards to meet.
I know an NSFW artist when I see it.
Doesn't she also have an OnlyFans?
Somehow reddit has a parasocial relationship with this person, they hate her. She committed the crime of being mildly cringe. And she has and OF, which i'm sure a lot of users on reddit must have seen, but they act like they're above her just because. Yes she does NSFW stuff, nothing weird tho.
I would say the majority of reddit liked her work, including me, because it was always upvoted despite a few vocal people getting their undies in a twist and complaining. Plus her comics were used pretty widely for making memes.
Never understood the complaints that she did NSFW stuff, artists gotta eat too!
To be clear not all of pizzacake's work is fun, but they have a snark sub just for her...and you know what snark sub turn into. I never understood this.
Given the number of people I have seen making allusions to themselves sleeping in the kennels they keep in their rooms...
This is just an out of touch marketing exec.
Yep.
Its cat food.
For cats.
Yep.
Mhm.
Yep thats our market demo, mhm.
That would work 100%
I'm certainly intrigued
"See, this attitude is why your company will never be all it can be, no matter how expensive a suit you put on."
That cat is missing most of its nippels.
Gotta leave room for future enhancement, that's job security
I mean, as a connoisseur of sexy felines, uh... I erm... 🥺👉👈
How could a wolf possibly fall in love with a cat?!
It's purrfectly understandable
(I'm also part tiger and a dash of fox but shh)

Is this epic furry?
And you know why they don’t work there?
Because you don’t have sexy cats to begin with that’s why!
meow
Liking antros is one thing, this is an ad for cat food though.
