garfield is a queer icon and im tired of pretending he's not, he's for the queers who are just a little bit eepy, for the queers who just want to eat and laze about, he's also canonically an enby who goes by he/him pronouns

idk i just decided to make this space for anyone who wants to post garfield memes and general garfield related stuff because there's like only one other garfield comm on lemmy that i could find and its just one guy posting the garfield comic that was released today 45 years ago (unironically pretty cool though ngl)

Rules: all the normal stuff no bigotry, no doxxing, etcetera. I reserve the right to moderate as i see fit but i dont think i'll be too overbearing with it (any bigotry will be pretty harshly modded though)

Jim Davis consciously created Garfield as a vehicle to sell merchandise. As admitted by Jim Davis.

So not only is the Trump comparison apt, its actually way deeper because his job is not to be funny or good, its to be broadly marketable to people with low standards using repeatable catchphrases that you can print on hats and coffee mugs.
