There's a long story involving her threatening legal action against a subreddit over people parodying her work, overall she seems to be a very thin skinned individual that doesn't take criticism well.
Her work also just isn't very good, in my view. Her art style is incredibly bland, and her positions on various topics are just the biggest "no shit" moments you can imagine.
To be fair, if the biggest critiques of an internet celeb was that they were thin-skinned and their takes aren't very spicy then I take that as a win in today's environment. Hell even being "sort of an asshole" is pretty good by today's standards.
It could be worse, but then again, people wouldn't be posting her work all the time if she'd done something truly awful.
Instead she makes bland dross that confirms people's opinions, and people think she's actually creative as a result.
She does, however, sell nude pictures on her patron.
Lol of course it would be satansmaggotycumfart to share this tidbit
Gentlemen, I think I've found my next job. Now, if only I was good looking...
You could always paint your toenails and sell foot pics.
I mean.....I wouldn't know......
🤔
I'd have to shave my feet and get a pedicure as well, since I don't think there is much of a market for male hobbit feet
What? No! What are you doing man??? Hobbit feet are big market money makers! Do you know how popular Lord of the Rings is, and how many of their fans have foot fetishes??? Gotta be some crossover there, right?
Be you!
Thanks, SatansMaggotyCumFart. You've shown us the audience that shits on artists
I honestly don’t think she’s into that.
We won't know unless we ask though
It's not like the community here shits on all artists regularly, it's just the one.
Bullying someone because everyone else does it still doesn't make it cool dude
There is a difference between criticism and bullying. Given that the complaints I've seen here are all entirely justified and true, calling it 'bullying' is pretty ridiculous.
Also PC isn't even here to see these comments, we can insulting someone who's not in the room mockery
Which is very weird, but whatever.
She's an example of a normal person becoming famous and having to navigate those waters without a team.
You're a wonderful example of an outside critic without consideration. I'm thankful I'm just a nobody like you, because these critiques upset me even when I'm not involved whatsoever.
I wasn't aware I had to be an artist to criticise Pizzacake.
And even without the drama on Reddit, which I don't particularly care about, her work is extremely bland and unimaginative.
Lots of posts on Lemmy are bland and unimaginative. I don't feel the need to comment as such in each and every one of them.
You do you, I guess.
You don't have to be an artist to criticize her, just like I don't have to be a critic to recognize bandwagoning. People shit on her because it's popular, not because of good reasons.
Continue to manifest reddit drama here, and argue for shitting on people. I'll take my downvotes for standing up for artists. There are literally hundreds of bigger problems we should be speaking up about, this comic artist is not one of them.
Have you considered the possibility everyone is criticising her because she genuinely sucks?
I thought she was just "bland and unimaginative"
Most people would consider those to mean similar things.
The great thing about lemmy is that if you don't like a post, there's another one under it.
Yup.
Explain the difference between bandwagoning and the majoroty of people sharing the same opinion.
posts nude photos of Nurse_Robot punting a basket of puppies
You swore you'd never post that photo, I only kicked that basket because you said it was the only way you could get off
