I’ve had the opportunity to foster kids three times in my life, and every time I would wake up in the morning with this incredible sense of purpose and fulfillment.
Having someone who relies on you and trusts you and genuinely wants to be around you as much as possible gives a deep sense of meaning to my life.
Being around someone with this endless curiosity and boundless energy is invigorating. It makes me feel young, in turn. And it gives me an outlook on life I haven’t had since I was very young, myself.
And babies are fucking adorable! I cannot express how crazy cute babies are. Everything they do makes me smile, even the gross things or the grumpy things, because they do it with such naked sincerity.
Currently working through the official adoption process with my wife, because we can’t have kids the old fashioned way. And my only real regret is that we didn’t do this shit ten years sooner.
Thank you so much for giving me the words to express my feelings better in the future. I could sign every sentence. We were lucky enough to be able to have kids the old fashioned way and I enjoy it to a degree I could not have fathomed before.
I’ll keep my fingers crossed that you two get through the adoption process fast and easy and that you will soon be happy long term parents to a wonderful child. Also, thank you for giving foster kids a loving home.
It always strikes me as anomalous that there are some that feel compelled to comment that pizzacake isn’t funny but don’t bother expressing approval or disapproval of any other comics
Pearls before Swine is awesome. Same with Red and Rover. And of course the true classic of Far Side. And Bizarro is fun, especially the “seek and find”.
It’s a public forum. That’s how things work. If it bothers the original artist then that person should either keep their stuff off the Internet or learn to ignore the negativity.
Ah you misunderstood. There are some people that comment positively in comics that they like and some that comment negatively in comics they don’t like and some that do both. The thing that is weird to me is that, seemingly unique to this comic, there are people that feel they have to say that “it’s not funny” just for pizzacake. This group is different from the group that comments negatively in comics in general. They don’t leave comments, positive or negative, for any other comics.
Now if you make the habit of going into other comic posts that you don’t care for and leave your criticism on those posts then you fall into the non-anomalous group that has consistent behavior. If you have any pattern of leaving commentary on the quality of comics then you don’t fall into the group I’m talking about really. But if you only comment about comics on just pizzacake posts to just say they are not funny then the shoe might fit.
Did you express approval or disapproval for other comics in other posts?
Careful, I remember somebody posting evidence some time back showing the author was some hyper passive aggressive person who’d sic their fanbase on you.
Referring more to the comments and discussion in that thread rather than the comic, in case that wasn’t clear. In any case, I have no personal experience or fight in this.
So you’re just repeating some random people online who are complaining about a woman…who pushes back against some online trolls/haters?
Lol who gives a shit and why would you just throw out such a random claim when you haven’t seen it for yourself anyway? Redditors, famous for reacting respectfully to women and women content creators.
Was not even aware she was female until I looked this up, and did not bring up anything to do with gender, so you seem to be making this a sexist fight for no reason.
That’s crazy. Imagine being the kid who discovers their mom made comics, featuring them - first discovering the comics were widespread but also widely criticized. Then while checking some of the comments, learning that your mom also sells nudes.
Only for people who clearly cannot be bothered to take proper care for a pet, which is a frightening amount. Most Americans also think the normal size / look of a cat is an obese one, and that healthy weighting cats are “too thin”.
There’s a pretty good chunk of time when cleaning up your kid’s pee without losing your cool is all the situation calls for. Could be a baby who isn’t even aware they’re peeing but needs to air out their diaper area to prevent a rash. Or a toddler you’re attempting to potty train. One of the most common potty training methods involves them just being naked and you trying to get them to the potty whenever you notice them peeing until they get the idea. And you doing anything other than being chill about it is gonna cause anxiety around them learning this new skill.
One of the main reasons a cat might pee outside their litter box is a disrupted routine. I can’t imagine how that might happen if you have a newly mobile baby. Must be because this person is a bad parent and cat owner.

Gross pizza cake has infested the fediverse
Truly a shit comic.
no way it’s the comic lady from r/comedynecrophilia
I’ve always wanted to carry around a spare change of clothes for myself just in case I get someone else’s pee on them :D
My mother once said “because of sex”.
Why? I . . . I . . don’t know!
[sobs]
[laugh track]
This was so unfunny that I’m going to actively be less sarcastic to my kid from now on
Well it is a bit snarky…
My daughter is 4 and rolls her eyes at me at a highschool level.
“ask your father, all I wanted was a back rub.”
Let’s be real here. You knew this going in. Condoms have existed for a while.

Good for you.

Is this the original text? I remember pizzacake being funny…

Do you do that in the posts for those comics ?
No need. I just call out shit I don’t like.
If you don’t have something nice to say, post it on the internet?
It’s a public forum. That’s how things work. If it bothers the original artist then that person should either keep their stuff off the Internet or learn to ignore the negativity.
Then why did you reply with positive comments about unrelated comics?
You literally commented that people don’t say positive things about other comics.

Pizzacake drama is the internet’s dumbest drama which makes it quality meta.
Him, interesting, thanks
I tried to find info on that but didn’t see anything that supported this. Do you have a source or are you just repeating what you’ve heard?
https://www.reddit.com/r/JustUnsubbed/comments/12rv1y9/just_unsubbed_from_rpizzacakecomics_i_genuinely/
This is what a quick google turned up
NGL that seems incredibly mild and doesn’t really support your original claim.
The guys that push this story always leave out the loads of overt harassment that she did receive too.

Lmao, let them do their worst… 😂
Ha,never.
You remember that wrong.
Bring back the good old days of hands-off parenting and child labour!
The artist sells nudes in case anyone is interested.
Go to horny jail
The horny police take you down the horny road to horny jail. Where’s all this horny infrastructure springing from?
That’s crazy. Imagine being the kid who discovers their mom made comics, featuring them - first discovering the comics were widespread but also widely criticized. Then while checking some of the comments, learning that your mom also sells nudes.
The creator mentions it herself on Reddit constantly (or she used to a year ago when I still used it.).
That’s disgusting. Where?
Patreon.
Yesterday my son peed in the exact spot where I just finished cleaning up cat pee.
Showing dominance! Good!
2 years old and already dominant among the cats. Not bad
I mean, if you can’t even handle a cat, of course you’ll have trouble with a human child.
Sounds like they cleaned it up perfectly fine both times.
That is cool if you want to be a cleaning lady for some public toilets, but parenting is a bit more than that.
Yeah, parenting is a lot more than just cleaning up pee. No one said it wasn’t. It also includes cleaning up pee. I don’t see what you’re getting at.
Cats do not just pee in random areas for no reason. And them having a cat & kid do this very much indicates issues in regards to them.
Isn’t that literally one of the things cats are known for?
Only for people who clearly cannot be bothered to take proper care for a pet, which is a frightening amount. Most Americans also think the normal size / look of a cat is an obese one, and that healthy weighting cats are “too thin”.
Okay? So you handle the problem then. I don’t understand why you think that the existence of a problem means someone can’t handle it.
The urinating is not a problem, it’s a symptom.
