The format and theme of being a comic that has dinosaurs in it? That is literally the only thing that they have in common. That’s it. Dinos and Comics covers a wide variety of stuff but typically sticks to friendship (with a dash of social awkwardness) and puns. ADHDinos specifically talks about ADHD and living with it. Also that ‘less readable font’ is called OpenDyslexic which was specifically designed to be readable to people with Dyslexia. While they should have put a border around the words to make it easier to see, the font is pretty legible and I’m gonna openly support them for using an accessibility font.
Dinos and Comics does not have an exclusive or unique claim to being a webcomic.
Theme
As stated above, it does not share a theme. Dinos and Comics focuses on friendship and puns. ADHDinos focuses on ADHD and living with it. In fact it exclusively revolves around ADHD itself and uses that as the entire core concept of the comic, using each comic itself to specifically talk about one issue of having ADHD.
Art style
There’s a similarity but, again, Dinos and Comics does not have an exclusive or unique claim on that art style. That same art style has existed for many years and will continue to exist. Moreover, ADHDinos puts genuinely more work into the art. There’s more shading, the characters actually move, and the panels frequently are different instead of just a zoomed in version of what came before it.
Colors
No. Dinos and Comics uses pastel colors of a large variety. ADHDinos uses darker colors and the same ones repeatedly.
So let me rephrase something from earlier.
The format and theme of being a comic that has vaguely similar dinosaurs in it? That is literally the only thing that they have in common. They cover different topics and have their own visual distinctions. It is not a ‘rip off’ simply because they look kind of similar, especially when the entire core concept of the comics are different themselves.
Also that ‘less readable font’ is called OpenDyslexic which was specifically designed to be readable to people with Dyslexia.
Neat, TIL. To my eyes, it looks like the font was rendered at a specific point size and then scaled up unevenly, like on an old LCD screen with a mismatched resolution. I found myself trying to zoom in to clear it up. If others find it more readable, that's awesome.
As for thematics, Dinos and comics started off with a heavy slant on neurodivergency (and navigating it) in general, ADHD included. Later ones skewed heavily towards "I am happy with my partner" type stuff. Which is cute and all, but doesn't hit the same.
That’s the short form equation that ignores environmental pressure, the long form has a separate term that accounts for shelter and sentience as a factor between 0 and 1, as well as a quotient for empathy with a numerator of associate happiness.
Okay, I’ll eat both…just as soon as apple and/or amazon sews your lips to my anus. Maybe I’ll stack some fiberone bars on top of it so that I fart for a few hours before the shit comes out.
Perception is the hardest that destroy the equation. All have their personal own, there isn’t a universal right perception, common is living a lie to keep going.
I just spent Thanksgiving with my family, and was reminded how much my parents love boiling things. Fucking disgusting, no spices either? Fuck bland potatoes. It takes almost no effort to just toss a bunch of fucking spices on them and then put them in the oven.
Isnt thanksgiving a month from now? Are you like from the future? Why did you suddenly come back? Is the whole world doomed and you came back to warn us of something terrible?!?!?
My dad does this, just boils vegetables and potatoes so long that they’re reduced to their component quarks and then serves them in a bowl with nothing on them. For bonus points, he makes sure they’ve cooled off to room temperature before we eat. I want to blame the Great Depression for this style of “cuisine”, but he was born after that shit.
No excuse for bland potatoes. Even boiled, they can taste good. Low effort, throw some dill on those bastards. It’s that easy. My mom is diabetic, and down a kidney, so salt and sugar are not really things in the food she makes, but it always tastes good.
