Strong Man 💪

Maybe I'm off but.. they do make you weak, right?
And we don't just let emotions happen sometimes, we should acknowledge they are always there to one degree or another. There may be times when having a brave face is what is needed, but for most people most of the time, it isn't
So, the real takeaway should be "you don't need to be strong all the time, in fact, you can't"
Yeah kinda. But in the sense that having control over your emotions is strong and not being able to control them is weak. That does mean you are weak when you cry in public, but that is kinda the point of crying. Its a way to communicate to others that you need help or support or comfort or something. It also means that you are weak when you are unable to control your anger and punch someone in the face when you don't get your way. It also means that you are strong when you take time to talk about your emotions, since that helps you be in control of them.
Control does not mean suppress, it actual means control. Know when to show them, use them, hide them, the whole shebang. It's not an easy skill to master, so if you do, you're definitely strong.

Who is that?
Jeffrey "The Big" Lebowski. Not to be confused with Jeffrey "The Dude" Lebowski. Especially in financial matters.

And I got here before the pizzacake hateclub? Will wonders never cease.
My post was downvoted after I had just posted it.

i read "weak" in this context as "unmanly". as in, the concept of feeling things makes someone less of a man, that manliness is inherently tied to stoicism. which is a very common thing, and something that needs to be combated. using language that meatheads understand necessarily means losing some nuance and adding some bias.
I think the important thing to understand the meaning isn't the "weak" as much as the "doesn't make you". Like they could have achieved the same meaning by saying, "You are not defined by the emotions you feel in times of trouble."
I see the word "weak" as an emotional appeal rather than an actual important part of the meaning.

For the unaware: a spill the tea app has been exposed open for a long time.
Pizzacakecomic may have engaged in such activities for awhile. This comic maybe a way to reconcile with said activities.

Hmm. I usually like her comics but this one has "I pray for you" energy.
The timing seems to scream: “but you see, it's ok that I shared an affair with you know who.”

I dunno. Talking through problems and getting help can make people feel better.

‘May have’? So you don’t actually have any proof of that.

This god awful post covers it:

If someone has a better thread, please share.
Basically she made a misdarist flavored comic and sent mods to ban critics across subs, and threatened incredulous DMCA against parody sub bhj.
I appreciate the sentiment in this comic, but my resentment for her response still stands: she's THE comic Karen.

Liquid Snake feels very left out, as does Solidus Snake

For anyone wondering - comic strips don't need to be witty or poignant to send a message, they can just state the message directly in the panel

wrote last edited by [email protected]Political cartoons would be so much better if they did that instead of looking visually cluttered with all the forced metaphors being drawn into the scene. I swear, some of those things are like puzzles. You miss one or two small pieces of context and suddenly the whole cartoon makes 0 sense.

Similar taste in rugs, though.

It is an emotional appeal. It's an emotional appeal when used by red-pill pick-up artists, or sigma grindset life coaches, or your dad when he's disappointed by your lack of stoicism.
There's nothing inherently wrong with emotional appeals.
