SJW Creator Brags Like a Super Villain

[@megasweet1523]

In 1994 a movie came out called "Airheads," about a trio of would-be rockers who became hostage takers at their local radio station in order to get their demo tape played on air. Near the end of the film, after a highly publicized police standoff and hostage negotiation, they manage to get the record deal they always wanted. But Chazz, the leader of the band, realizes the big shot record label agent gave them the contract without even listening to their demo tape. The airheaded rockers became infamous. But their image in the public eye was all the agent cared about, not their merit as a rock band. So Chazz wiped his ass with the record contract. These three guys were dumb enough to hold up a radio station with WATER GUNS, and even THEY were self aware enough to recognize when they were being taken advantage of by greedy corporate hounds.

It's what happens when someone continually fails upwards. It goes to their head, and they suddenly think that they're succeeding because of TALENT, rather than because of their gender identity. A normal person who tried to get into the business and wrote a coupled of failed, cancelled projects wouldn't get more work. Yet they keep giving it to this dingus because otherwise they'd be seen as "transphobic", and being branded that, apparently, is worse than publishing failure after failure.

If they try to get you to speak out against them, speak in a calm tone, and don't refer to profanities. It will drive them to insanity that they can't bring you down to their level.

Oh, _two_ whole Eisners, huh? That would actually have meant something back when those awards carried a certain level of prestige to them. Nowadays, you get an Eisner for being “Stunning and Brave,” instead of writing a story that actually matters. Bragging about winning an Eisner is like bragging that you got a Diet Coke instead of a regular with your extra-large Big Mac meal. You got a pile of garbage, but at least you spared a thought about your weight to get a crappier version of a soft drink. Hurray for you.

Lol 😂, SJW logic, failure to sell your books, equals success.

[@dturner6332]

Yeah what do you know? You're *Just Some Guy.* I'll walk myself out.

Man it took me forever to figure out you were taking about the Eye-talyn Stallyn, er, Mayr.

Why was she pointing a hair dryer at the guy?

[@b_g_c3281]

I question whether I should just shelve my hopes, dreams and aspirations... I question whether I actually have _even a fraction_ of a "lick" of talent; whether I'm yet again indulging in pointless wishful thinking...but then... ...I hear about a certain someone who seems to be the absolute epitome of Dunning-Krueger Effect (( seamlessly combined with acute narcissism, and seemingly a predilection for violence, especially blunt-force-trauma to the head of anyone who *isn't* transgender )), and I think to myself:: Self?....You have _Every Right_ to Pursue the Happiness[ _rather, the _*_*Fulfillment_* ] you yearn for... _And since you _*_haven't_*_ defrauded

[@bharl7226]

That's the way to look at it. Thank you so much for saying it, from all of us who are full of doubt conflicting with our ambition. Thank you.

[@anonygent]

Anytime you feel like you don't have the talent to succeed in whatever field you're interested in, remember that Mick Jagger admitted that he couldn't sing.

[@Nerdgirl9853]

I hate being treated differently as others for being transgender. I am a human being, I want to be treated as such, not worse than a normal person, nor better. In fact, taking close attention to and treating someone as different for being trans, even if it is through being better to them, is, in a sense, transphobic. All we wish for, at least most of us, is to be normalized and blend in with normal people. Treating us differently is to hyperfocus on the aspects we wish for people to overlook.

[@twotales1645]

I've considered writing and publishing a book. Even if I had .01% of what EVS or Zach made, I'd be so thankful. The pros need to get over themselves and wise up.

[@kaiserdashawn5219]

The Eisner awards is a bigger joke than DSP gaming skills

[@jonathanhoward9533]

What is the standard for which these people are evaluated? If its not sales then what is it? Who you're friends with? Audience approval is the only objective measure.

[@Timasion]

Also, Bob Layton, one of the most successful writers of all time never won an Eisner.

[@erichurd7605]

And was probably cheated out of his fair share, at that...

[@AhsokaJackson]

Us: Sure. We know _that_ better than you do, apparently!

"Damn, you fell off like weave on a windy day!" OOF that shit hurted

[@WastelandSeven]

LOL You know quite a bit for just some guy! Pity you didn't do Donkey imitations on the quotes to go along with the pictures LOL Love it man, your videos never fail to deliver!

[@votedworstchannelonyoutube1537]

Man I worked on Independent comics in the 90s and we sold more than that that's f****** laughable

[@kurtjk01]

In regard to "this professional" and his whole "I'm published" argument: I don't have to be a master chef in order to tell when a short order cook's meal tastes like shit.

[@OnaniKnight]

As a Fabian, I had always hoped I could go without having my name called out in a video. Feels like I'm the one in trouble. I feel sorry for anyone named Mark or any of the other names that come up on videos like these. I get it now.

[@mcmogg_incmogg2080]

Haha I made a silly comic in college and sold it for 2 bucks and I sold over 200 and I just hung out at the quad for 3 days.

[@andrewtaylor940]

Just conjecture, but Diamond has a minimal order number in order to list the books. They will cut some slack for issue 1. But the cutoff seems to be somewhere between 1200-2000 issues. If the book drops well into 3 figures, they stop listing it.

[@Jim-Tuner]

Its not so much the minimum order. Its that they release "top 500" information on sales. The cutoff (#500) varies alot month to month. But its recently been in the 600-700 range.

[@cstuewe]

"Fell off like weave on a windy day." I'm totally stealing this line.

This broke my heart. Deadpool is one of my favorite characters ever and his co creator is another NPC? 😭

[@hardcyd3r]

Hey, just wanted to spread some positivity to ya, my copy of Middlewest came in and I read it and loved it! Excellent art and writing, so thanks for recommending it! Have a great day. 😊

[@jdredd8152]

Excellent video, brother. Never stop doing what you're doing.

[@ryanjones_rheios]

JSG are you suggesting that this writer...check their privilege? (trololol) =P

[@chichiboypumpi]

they should create a comic titled 'triggered'

[@reginamarks2187]

You sounded like you were going southern at the end.

[@Jim-Tuner]

Vagrant Queen 5 and 6 do exist as physical comics. 6 was listed in previews in October for delivery to shops for release on Jan 30, 2019. But you are correct that neither issue was listed in Comichron or ICv2. I think Diamond only releases data for the "top 500" titles which means its sold close to nothing or else the physical copies people have came through some other channel. The final issue went for the sale at the same time as the TPB. So there was actually a dis-incentive to sell it from a money point of view.

[@TheHTAA]

you, guy, are a breath of fresh air. keep it up!

I'm transgender, no one hands me shit. Funny how that works...

Sadly, the Eisner awards used to mean something.
