@quelqunjsplol@gothicca413 caricatures can be (and often are) racist. this one is. the whole reason people are mad is because it resembles a racist caricature
@Nycureamy1@rottingwire@Barnstormer2000@sileisce it is still in incredibly poor taste, merch does not need to be canon compliant (and often isnt)
especially when you compare it to another piece here
there was no reason for angel to be included. none.
i find it to be in incredible poor taste to put Angel on the same pride float as his violent sex abuser looking uneasy.
The excuse of "They wanted to be canon complicit!" doesnt even work when they made an acception for Adam whos a misogynistic woman abuser who ISNT EVEN QUEER
@Barnstormer2000@sileisce it genuinely is that deep actually, considering how angel is treated in the show. it doesnt matter that its where angel currently is, its distasteful and completely unnecessary
angel doesnt even fit in the composition hes awkwardly off to the side, he doesnt need to be there
@ji_2508@inkegg he said he developed *A* recipe, not *The* recipe
respectfully, how is "a" different from "my"? "a" already implies there are others, it does not lay claim whatsoever, your proposed change in wording means basically the same thing as what was said
@P3rryJerry@BASSSLAPPING well sure and that's completely fine, it's just her Continuing to share stuff and talk about it on tumblr replying to asks and interact directly with fans while the show was running that i'm criticizing. she should've taken a big step back once the show got picked up imo
@P3rryJerry@majoraismasked@BASSSLAPPING well that's my point, she should've taken a huuuuge step back from the internet and her show's fandom because overly interacting with it like she has is part of what fostered this parasocial relationship they have with her
@P3rryJerry@BASSSLAPPING i feel like if she wanted to interact with the fandom the way she has been, she should've made tadc a webcomic or something actually interactive
@P3rryJerry@BASSSLAPPING i get that but it still isn't the same. half of mark and cory's jobs as youtubers/streamers is interacting with their fan bases
goose's job, as a showrunner, is to focus on her show, Not interact with fans as if it's just a solo personal project
@P3rryJerry@BASSSLAPPING goose has been constantly interacting with fans and responding to tumblr asks about her characters While her show is still running and it is unprofessional
she should've waited until her show was finished like every other showrunner typically does
@P3rryJerry@BASSSLAPPING i don't think it is, and neither Cory or Mark are showrunners, that is not a good comparison
think about Alex hirsch or Dana terrace instead and how they've interacted with the fans while their shows were running
it really is not that hard to keep distance with your fans i feel
@P3rryJerry@BASSSLAPPING yeah but this is why showrunners typically dont interact so heavily with their fans while their show is still running
i feel like if goose had taken a step back she not only wouldnt have fostered the parasocial aspect so bad, but also she wouldnt be as dragged down by the fandom?
@Lizzy_wizzu@HelloFgteev act professional ๐ญ? i get that she can't stop the leaks now that they're out but saying "who cares" is crazy unprofessional
