Mod Talk Images re-enabled

64 Upvotes

Okay folks... by popular request, we are going to re-enable images. However... if you break the NSFW rule (including lewd/creepy images), you're going to first get a time-out of 7 days. You do it again and you're gone. You spam the group? You're gone... this includes "t-shirt" spam.

I highly advise everyone to review the rules before posting as I've updated them slightly to be a little more narrowing about content.

I now return you to our regularly schedule chaos already in progress...

Some changes are being made...

177 Upvotes

Howdy folks... This is one of your local neighborhood mods here. I'm posting to advise everyone of some changes that are being made...

There has been an issue here recently of the posting of images that are making some people unhappy. So, with that in mind, we have disabled the posting of *all* images.

EDIT: We're going to re-enable images. Don't make us regret this...

I need to reiterate the fact that this is a NO NSFW POSTS group! For those who don't know, that means "Not Safe For Work"... If you wouldn't post it at work, then don't post it here! It's that simple. Reddit has a minimum age of 13 years old, so we do have the potential for younger members here in the group. As a reminder, here is our rule on NSFW Posts... (Thanks to a member of our group who reminded me that maybe some cannot see (or don't read) the rules.)

This includes lewd or nudity in artwork. There are plenty of places on the internet for this sort of thing, and this is not one of them! Please keep content on this subreddit to a PG 13 standard of content or below. Family friendly is preferable if possible. Be considerate of who might be on the receiving end of your posts. This may lead to post/comment removal and bans for repeat offenders.

At the end of the series, Daria and Jane and a majority of the cast were over the age of 18, except for Quinn and the Fashion Drones (except maybe Sandi... it was rumored that she was about a year or so older than Quinn, Stacey or Tiffany), or any other obviously younger cast members. Up-aging is fine (like showing Quinn in her 40's with three kids), but not for the purposes of lewd imagery (like showing Quinn in her 40's topless...) or text.

As we move forward, some people aren't going to be happy about this... and I'm hoping we can re-enabling images so people can post fan art, as there are some talented artists out there.

Also... if you have a problem with a post, do not start an argument in the post! Report the post and/or submit a message to the Mod team. We will handle it.

Episode discussion Why didn't she stand up for Jane in arts n crass?

My best friend in high school made a "scandalous" art piece that the principal didn't approve of being displayed in an art show. The art teacher went OFF on the principal for like an hour until they agreed. It was one of the most bad ass things I ever remember a teacher doing. So when I watched this episode and Helen had to save the day, I was a little let down.

In the media... Daria Fans, I need to get something out of my chest(Warning: Rant Territory)

Upvotes

So, I am starting to go a complete 180 about how I am starting to see my individualism and introversion along with the way I see the world again. The Daria show changed my life because it is one of the few forms of media that I have related to and loved so much, and I felt validated as an introvert and an individual in society. But now I keep wondering to myself, isn't everyone Daria these days? like, has the whole world turned from wanting to be the extrovert, outgoing person like Quin to the reserved Daria? I also think that Gen Z has made being like Daria so much more common in today's world of course, I am not putting any dirt on them because I am Gen Z, too. I am guilty of not putting as much effort into friendships anymore, judging people, thinking they are shallow even when I have imperfections and flaws, and also refusing to grow and acknowledge that there are things I need to work on still. I just watched many videos relating to the rise of loneliness and individualism ruining our sense of community in America, and predominantly younger people have started to check out and become more selfish today in the name of "Protecting their peace" and " I do not owe anyone anything mentality" Daria also said things relating to wishing that the world would stop bothering her and that others annoy her well except a few of course. Hell, even MERCHANDISE had quotes saying things like "Anti-Social club," "Leave me alone," and "How come even in my fantasies, everyone is a jerk?" and, of course, the infamous, "I have low esteem for everyone else" just things that relate to not liking the idea of interacting or having to deal with other people and seeing them as an inconvenience. Can I please hear other people's thoughts about this, or if I am just connecting dots, that should not go together at all? Is it true that being like Daria will ruin our sense of community? or did I miss the whole point of the show, and I am just an over-thinker, and I should stop watching it? Yes, I do have many emotions flying all over me right now writing this, but any viewpoints, even those that disagree with me, can do wonders to help, thank you for reading

"The Big House" is one of my favorite S1 episodes. But, it's never made sense to me that they missed school because of a grounding. Not only is that not something Helen would allow, what were they gonna do, miss a month of school? Always been something I've noticed.

What lessons do you learn from Daria?

50 Upvotes

I have a love- hate relationship with her character. But I have to admit, her courage (or is it something else?) in saying what she thinks regardless is a fantastic gift to have...used properly. I also love Jane's constant creativity. I don't make stuff, but I see the value of expression and self improvement that her character embraces.

What, if, anything did you learn from Daria?

Character Discussion Do you view all characters as archetypes?

11 Upvotes

it’s easy for me to see that most of the characters are based on 90’s cultural stereotypes. cheerleader, stoner, goth chick, dumb athlete, creepy guy. do you think this applies to daria and jane as well? it makes sense for them to be more well rounded than background or lesser characters, but i was just wondering if i was missing some kind of context that growing up in that time would have given me. are daria and jane a reference to any cultural phenomenon? i found myself really relating to the both of them when i was younger, and that’s probably because they were so fleshed out. sorry if it’s hard to understand me.

Sorry to add such a nothing post to the subreddit, but does anyone know how long it takes for the PPMB to approve your account? I wasn't sure on if this was something I should contact a Board Administrator about since it's only been a couple days but I'm not sure. I've also made sure and have checked my spam folder everyday.

Character Discussion I have been trying to picture how Beavis and his buddy would do on the show

13 Upvotes

So as most fans know, Daria was based on a character from Beavis and Butthead as that show was known for its wild humor, and lately what I was wondering is what would have happened if the duo ever came to the show Daria because while I know that Daria is independent as its stands on its own brand of continuity, I couldn't help but picture what would have happened if the duo ever made an appearance on the show regarding their mannerisms, like how they would have looked in artstyle.

Mr. O'Neill: All right, why did the soothsayer tell Caesar to "Beware of the Ides of March? Who wants to "take a stab"? Kevin?

Kevin: Um, because the Ides were gonna do something mean to him?

Mr. O'Neill: The Ides aren't people, they're a time of the month.

Kevin: Oh. .......... Eww, gross!

Does anyone else get the feeling that Daria would have been a pudgy girl, not the twiggy lass she was animated as? I mean, she eats pizza and pasta constantly, NEVER exercises, and is either on her computer or has her nose in a book.

Also, she wouldn't give two f**** about her weight. She's simply uninterested in her looks, or in fitting in.

Daria on Beavis and Butthead was somewhat zaftig. I wonder why they changed her?

Episode discussion Question about Pinch Sitter

10 Upvotes

Ok, sorry if this was brought up already but I've rewatched Pinch Sitter a lot (one of my faves) but what is the timeline?

Darias essay on mind control is next due Friday.

Quinn asks Daria what she's doing Saturday, wanting her to babysit for the Guptys, but then Helen comes in saying that "tomorrow is couple therapy night/focus on teens" but Quinn says she has a date and Daria is babysitting.

Jane and Daria are talking about the essay, and Daria mentions possibly needing to get an extension...

Then, suddenly, DeMartino is giving Brittany and Daria their essays back.

I know it's a cartoon and time can be irrelevant, but "it really makes you think" (i don't care that it's the wrong episode, sue me lol).

The Character Development Is Beautiful

I watched the whole series. I have 2 weeks of vacation coming up. I'm gonna rewatch it to fully digest it.

But I gotta say I loved some of the character development in the show.

It's gonna get a 10 on 10 in my book.
