she does make flat, tepid, sometimes relateable, utterly forgettable comics. i saw her in my feed every day for years and simply scrolled past without issue, the way i do with all the content i’m not interested in and none of it affects my life for having scrolled past. i think it sucks, but i also think Cathy sucks and Cathy makes more money than i’ll ever see because someone out there likes it and wants to see it. Same on reddit, it’s upvoted because someone there likes it.
in addition, there exists for some stupid ass redditor-brained reason a hate subreddit for this woman who makes subpar comics and posts them on the internet. they have a megathread of Reasons PizzaCake Is A Morally Repugnant Human Being And You Should Hate Her With A White Hot Passion Too. i skimmed the first few bullet points and it felt like a copy-paste of gamergate allegations. i stopped when it turned into outright slutshaming because fuck’s sake the hell do some lewd pics have to do with her art and comedy being bad?
this comic ain’t about one dude, he’s generic and unfinished because he represents a lot of dudes committing a lot of harassment that is invisible to us, except through her public reactions.
i’ve only been harassed by one jerk at a time on redit and that was a nightmarish experience. she has a whole nakedly misogynistic hate sub after her, I can’t imagine what her DMs look like. can you see where this comic might be about her feeling some stress in that situation? this comic isn’t funny and the artwork isn’t great, but does it not express a fantasy that each and every one of us has had?
why on earth does making art about your feelings and sharing it with the world make you a narcissist? be reasonable, apply a scant bit of empathy and you might start to see a human being where the internet told you there’s a monster.
and yes, her art sucks and her jokes are unfunny. the internet is huge and we all suck at most things, who in their right mind cares?
