        tbh yeah

        It’s easier to explain to people than why I have some kinky sex game character painted there.

              All due respect, of I say that painting on the side of a house, or even a painting I don’t like come to that, I am not looking for an explanation.

                Okay…

                I don’t know what to tell you, everyone I speak to who’s seen it would get an explanation that I hadn’t paid for a kinky childhood character to be painted on the side of my house and I don’t want it there…

                  Ahhh, I understand. It’s your choice to have whatever you want on your home.

      I think I’d just hire an artist to paint over that one (if I couldn’t find the original artists).

      It’s fair to say you don’t want something you don’t like on your wall, while still encouraging artists.

          Drawing a child character as a sexualized adult is weird and I wouldn’t want it on my streets

            I think it’s pretty harmless in this case. There are plenty of renditions of the Alice story with an older Alice and the story in general has become pretty synonymous with other adult topics (for example the general psychedelic aesthetic) that I don’t really connect it with the original character much.

            But I can see how some other people might see it differently, so I guess it’s a fair call to not want it publicly shown.

                Those might be the cocks of children, the cocks of men with severe mental disabilities unable to consent, or the cocks of the most hated warlords and dictators in the history. You’re displaying them for the world, you monster!

                  Oh … so definitely not each their own sentient entity walking, waddling, and bouncing around exploring the world?

                  Look at them little cocks go, so bravely venturing into the unknown …

            It probably doesn’t make you feel any different about it, but I’m 99% sure it’s from an adult comic series that put a darker twist on a lot of fairy tales.

          Oh, I don’t know, maybe the Disney version which she is dressed the same as. Very similar design. Context clues and all.

      I would only have the leftmost … the Goofy-Blinky hybrid with a chain kink is just weird/too random to make much sense (or probably it’s just me not getting something)
