Considering that you decided to make this a job, you'd best be completing them Dobbo. Doubly so if you wanna actually make enough money to equate to a
. Triply so since you think your shit is worth money. Quadruply so since this was supposed to be your fucking dream.

It's like he wants to run a cafe but is just sitting on the floor of a gutted empty shop waiting for a queue to form outside before he even installs a table let alone a coffee machine.

Just post the damn things, that's what I'd do in this situation.

Yeah, but fortunately for you, you're not like Dobson. I'm sure you don't feel the need to complain about every. single. goddamn. thing, no matter how trivial it is.

Dobson has done the impossible."The internet is so incredibly vital to our lives"
I decided to see just how many times Wu Senpai has acknowledged Dobear's existence.
- Gets less than $1200 a year from his internet job
- Gets "bulled" by the internet
- Just wastes his day away tweeting to his follower count (that user to $ is even lower than his annual patron income) about stupid gemtlemen sperging and to a certain person who I have yet to see reply to any of his tweets and most likely has muted him long ago.
- Claims this the social side of this is an actual essential thing he needs when in reality it just seems to be stopping him from doing work and plenty of comic artists don't spend all day on Twitter and are much more successful than him.
He has made Wu look like the more rational, sensible, and mature individual by comparison.
I... need to go lie down.

If I wanted to, yes. But I'm not that kind of man that wants to. I mean, why should I complain about how some internet people act every hour of every day?

I am. While he's at it, it would be nice if he could stick his head in a toilet, too.

So, does Dobson have a comic online at the moment that's not hosted on DA?
Can't seem to find anything... which begs the question: How can you consider yourself a cartoonist when you don't have anything online?
I have never really checked out his Alex ze Pirate stuff in detail, I mainly checked out stuff like the Lesbian Kick garbage but I never bothered to find out more about the characters or the overall plot (or lack thereof).
It's simply amazing, is that comic anything aside from: "Reusing Ranma 1/2 characters, boring tropes and put it in a blender with small amounts of One Piece"?
I can't fathom how Dobson can say things like he 'wants to tell stories' when his main offender this far has been a derivative comic that's hardly telling a story at all and fails on all fronts to even remotely be creative. I'd like to read that comic online, just to see how far the rabbithole goes. And on a sidenote: Geez. Looking up Dobson on Amazon almost makes you feel sorry for the guy. Almost. Those reviews...
Also something that actually bothered me: I always was under the impression he was at least somewhat into Manga, but apparently, he has some sort of hateboner? Why steal from Ranma 1/2 and make horrible fetish-art of Azumanga Daioh when you look down on Manga or even hate it?
I doubt there's a more competetive field for cartoons and comics than the ever growing jungle of Manga and Anime, so if anything, that particular medium should have shown him there's only two ways of succeeding in making yourself a name:
1) Pandering to the max (like with Lucky Star and K-On)
or
2) Somehow stick out through creative story or impressive style (which is obviously easier said than done)
And in both cases, you need to bust your ass to even dream about making it.

IICR Dobson blames his artistic stagnation on his past interest in anime and manga, ignoring that there's plenty of talented western animators and cartoonists who were influenced by it.

So his inability to branch out and try new styles is the fault of a medium he consumed some time ago?
Sounds about right. I mean, Dobson being an idiot who blames his shortcomings on convenient scapegoats, not the "anime narrows one's artistical horizon" thing.

Does Dobson ever mention what his day job actually is? No way he doesn't have one, he can't possibly sit on Twitter all day and complain about how hard being an artist is in between looking for lesbians in children's cartoons, right? Right?!

It's really worth mentioning right now that the creator of Avatar: The Last Airbender (which of course led to Korra) was apparently heavily influenced by FLCL, an absolutely insane anime.

Now apparently uploading files takes too much effort:
It's weird since you'd think it'd be the ideal place since he would have complete control and if he wanted could turn off all comments, he's probably worried that all his asspatters from DeviantArt wouldn't follow him over.
Well he used to have http://www.syacartoonist.com/ but I guess it doesn't exist anymore? Not sure when he took it down.

You have a website for your business for nearly 10 years… thousands of pages online probably link to it.
You switch to a pay model so what do you do? Take your 8 year old website down without even a message telling people where it went.
He really doesn't see the world beyond his stupid Twitter feed does he? This really feels like when CWC gives ebay order updates via Facebook as if the whole world is watching him on there. Not to mention his "too sad to draw
" "too sad to upload " tweets are really starting to feel like the stress sighs of a lolcow falling into slumber.

Too sad to upload? Uploading is the easy part, since it's literally upload that shizz to your host site of choice.
Ohhh, he means he's too chickenshit to look at comments that range from "Ur dabes" to "Kill urself". It's real sad to see a 30+ year old man have thinner skin than a preteen girl who writes or draws on the internet.

He really should update that fucking bear to look more like Droopy. It'd fit his personality better.
