https://sequentialpulp.ca/2022/05/31/tcaf-rescinds-invitation-to-pink-cat/

quote:

TCAF is rescinding its invitation to Pink Cat, also known as Saba Moeel, due to code of conduct violations and the concerns expressed by the comics community.

TCAF initially extended a programming invitation to Moeel on the basis of their daily digital comics work on Instagram, and the personal importance that work had to one of our team members.

At the time of this invitation, the organization was unaware of Moeel’s online conduct, plagiarism, or allegations of tracing. We apologize for programming and promoting this artist.

We made a mistake.

As a promise to our community, we will use this as a learning moment as we move forward as an organization, and will re-examine the checks and balances we currently use to process our programming decisions.

TCAF does not accept money to program featured guests, ever. Those artists are selected along a wide set of criteria. Most featured guests at TCAF are funded to attend our festival through cost sharing between the festival, publishers, or international cultural agencies.

No one in the TCAF organization has financial ties to Moeel.

TCAF is an organization of largely part time staff who work in a collaborative framework.

When an issue of this importance is raised, it takes time for us to come together and discuss the appropriate next steps.

If you want to know who we are, you can see our names on the about page of our website, and we can be reached through our public-facing email accounts, which are also on that page.

Sorry, should have been more specific.

I wasn't asking "What's up with the air vent", I was just amused by some random chud (who appears to worship Jordan Peterson) going "Hmmm, ZOOM AND ENHANCE...perhaps CONTRABAND?!" on a photo from the late 1950s like he's cracking a drat cold case, particularly a photo where I assume the takeaway is "Hey, look at this white celebrity hanging out with a minority celebrity during heavily segregated times." (At least based on some of the comments I've seen from Eastwood stans, like "SEE, HE WAS SO OPEN MINDED TO STAND CLOSE TO A BLACK MAN BACK THEN")

I'm tempted to answer "Hmmm...drugs, guns, both??" with "It's Eastwood, so definitely both." because you know that's the opposite of what they were trying to imply.

Here is an Amazon review of the Animal Crossing manga:

:ohdear: :bahgawd:

Funny, especially the last bit. Chi’s Sweet Home is about a kitten who gets separated from her mother and adopted by a family. It’s wholesome enough, but I wouldn’t give an 8 year old girl something that that explores the fear and loneliness a lost kitten experiences. This would be particularly egregious if they only got the first volume of Chi, which is more about “where’s my mom?” than the later columns where it’s more “I’m a dumb kitten doing dumb stuff”

e: thinking about it more, I’m probably over-stating some of the traumatic parts.

Um, no, it's to stop any bullets from passing through. :colbert:

That is definitely the case, if I had to guess.

I saw a comment like "It's so they don't let out any of the room's...atmosphere", which got a laugh outta me.

I had to read that entire thread to figure out who Pique is. Like I'm sure he's more famous in countries that care about soccer than he is here, but pretty much everyone in the English and Spanish speaking parts of the world know who Shakira is, and she's probably incredibly famous pretty much anywhere with access to her music.

My favorite reply is someone from Latin America saying that everyone there calls him Shakiro or Shakira's Husband.

Also this same gross dude who said nobody knows who Shakira is was saying that Shakira was also at fault because she didn't want to marry and "wore the pants" in the relationship. Vs him CHEATING.
