Weird. A real thing that somehow made it through every level... This is truly a remarkable example of the Swiss cheese model in action.

I give you, an eBay listing: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/314945286881

I don't see why any level would go "Oh furries are going to love this, and we can't have that" and change the design.

How many NBA mascots would lose their jobs if we were all so uptight about shit like this?

I feel unsafe looking at that picture.

The girl looks uncomfortable being next to it too

[-] TotallynotJessica@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

Displaying that mascot qualifies as large scale mental abuse.

[-] Draconic_NEO@pawb.social 4 points 1 day ago

Agreed, @sangriaferret@sh.itjust.works would be best if you wrap that image in a spoiler.

If I'm put in charge, that guy is the first to go.

Giant zombie baby from Dead Alive?

Based on the photos of the mascots, there's no way they didn't hire a furry to draw those.

It's funny how it's so distinctly "furry" over just "animal mascot" but I can't put my finger on the details that make it so

TIL Swiss cheese model

[-] jj4211@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago

I don't see why any level, even knowing "furry" would find these particular designs "objectionable" and worthy of rejecting. They aren't even vaguely fetishized.

$50 all in w/ shipping to the US‽

Jesus take the wheel I'm about to make some poor financial decisions

[-] Korne127@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Why would it be a hazard or remarkable or even something special that it "made through"… It's just a mascot, and a good one as well

[-] SendMePhotos@lemmy.world -1 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

Because it's very very obviously a fursona

[-] Korne127@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago

… and?

Why would that be a hazard or remarkable or even something special that it “made through”… It’s just a (furry) mascot, and a good one as well

[-] SendMePhotos@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

That's not something that's generally appropriate for a government to post, or anyone in a professional setting.

That's Lizzie! She's adorable!!

She's the Paralympics mascot, and a frilled lizard! Her frill is shaped like Australia!
