    i think anyone who seriously gets upset about this should be investigated as being a minor lowkey 😭

    i think the bug was at least more interesting than “boymoder but as a horse” since the entire point of the mascot was to be unique. also ive always loved bugs and viewed them as similar to trans people since we’re misunderstood partially because of our looks and we’re both overhated.

      A worm mascot would’ve been funny and achieved the same metaphor but it’s too late for a submission now

    I understand her. Imagine designing a complicated character and paying attention to every detail, then random doodle of a bug wins…

      it’s not an art competition it’s a mascot competition tho. it should be about which character the community prefers not about who draws better

        yeah wasn’t the whole premise that it’s not a skill competition, but a concept competition?

            i don’t think it’s a bad mascot, i just don’t like that bug was in the lead but then noelle threw a ridiculous childish tantrum about it and now everyone is pity voting her mascot

    I mean probably yea, but like, if it’s that important to her than like let her have the win. It’s shitty enough being alive so anything that helps another tranner
