David RevoyThe Gift of Life
SomeVeganCheeseIsOk@davidrevoy a lemon would be a MUCH better gift than an unexpected pregnancy with roaches so she definitely needs to be grateful.
Tristen Grant@tristen Hey don't kinkshame Life. She might give *you* a gift too.
@SomeVeganCheeseIsOk Are you ok?
@tristen My man, I am on mastodon talking about human women magically becoming pregnant with insect larvae, and that's the *least* awful gift I could imagine the anthropomorphic personification of life giving someone. What do you think?
@SomeVeganCheeseIsOk I think not. Especially since your comment(s) come of of nowhere.
@tristen I'm not sure if you're playing along or actually hostile here. Comments "come out on nowhere" on public forums all the time. Did you think this was somehow a private space? I have sad news for you.
@SomeVeganCheeseIsOk No, its just that your comment is wildly inappropriate for the comment/content you're posting about. Very odd thing to say about an all-ages comic that has nothing to do with what you said. Not trying to be hostile.
@tristen ohhhh I see. You're the Tone Police. You didn't display a badge so I didn't recognize you. Sorry Officer, I'll be more careful to only post *approved* content in the future. Would you be willing to double check my posts before I post them so I don't run afoul of the unspoken rules you've privately inferred about a public forum?
@SomeVeganCheeseIsOk Lets say the post was a kid's comic. Would you say the same thing? Would it be appropriate? You CAN say whatever but sometimes so things aren't right to say in some context. Didn't your parents explain that to you? I don't think I was being hostile at all.
@SomeVeganCheeseIsOk I'm not asking you to censor yourself. Just pointing out that throwing in shock humour and kink jokes under an all-ages comic isn't clever, it's tone-deaf. You can post whatever — but don’t be surprised when someone says 'hey, not cool here.' That’s not policing. That’s community.
@tristen Do some introspection here. You're picking on this comment because you can, not because it's actually necessary. You can't fix the bigger problems but you can verbally try and censor someone in public. So you're doing that because it's easy.
You and Cotton Mather would love each other.
@SomeVeganCheeseIsOk No clue who Cotton Mather is.
@tristen if only you could search for that name on some handy reference! Oh well.
@SomeVeganCheeseIsOk I assume it has something to do with censorship. Which I already said, I'm not trying to censor you. Just point out that what you said was gross and inappropriate.
@tristen "gross" as decided by you. "Inappropriate" as decided by you. What are you, a Karen?
Did anyone *ask* you to tell other people their comments were out of line? Did the artist give you a handkerchief to hold while you took me to task? Or did you take this on yourself, because you felt like part of the Upright Citizen's Brigade?
@SomeVeganCheeseIsOk Did anyone like or praise your comment? I’ve said what I needed to. If you want to keep lashing out instead of reflecting, that’s your choice. I’m done here.
@tristen You're a piece of work, man. I'm not the one lashing out. I'm not the one posting on my timeline like I'm a victim of a conversation you started. I'm not the one trying to police other people's comments. I was cheerfully living my life when you decided that I offended your sensibilities by commenting on someone else's art and you took it upon yourself to make that fact known in an effort to... What? What did you want from handing down your judgement from on high?
