cursed 是什麼意思

As a slang...probably.

When a fanart (often joking) is posted to Discord, I see a lot of this word in the reaction.
I don't think it means something bad but I've not grasped what it is like yet, so I'm curious.

Here's some samples which I saw.
"whyd yall have to bring up that cursed thing up in deserts stream? now people know about it"
"Cursed images"
"Cursed."

(By the way "in deserts stream" in the first sample is also a phrase I don't know, but its meaning might be unclear without context...)

Not sure what “in deserts stream is” 😢 But “cursed images” are like.. out-of-context images that are not photoshopped, and usually taken on an old phone. Usually they are funny and have a good vibe to them.

Here's my guess:

Someone posted an image that appeared in the video stream of someone named "Desert." This image (or its contents) had previously been featured in Desert's stream with strong reception from the reviewers. Since this is fanart and you stated that it seems to be in a joking fashion, then maybe like for example there was a chicken chasing Desert around. Thus, people would say "cursed" to joke that "the chicken is causing nightmares for Desert."

In general, "cursed" means that something has been imbued with evil. In this case, "cursed" is used sarcastically, in that it elevates the seriousness so far that it becomes funny.

Cursed usually refers to paranormal or voodoo. It can be an indirect reference. A curse is magic bestowed for evil purposes. If you curse someone’s car, then you are trying to cause harm to the car through something more powerful than you like a demon, a god, a witch, a legend, a spirit, or dark magic.

If an image is cursed, one would think that the image would cause harm through magic, evil power, etc...

Thank you very much!
I'm so glad I received a lot of comments.
All comments helped me!

I saw more images said as cursed, and it seems "out-of-context," which is included in @kristen001 's explanation, is an essence of "cursed."
And then, I'm relieved it actually means "funny and have a good vibe"!

@UnicornP
Thank you for assuming the situation!
Thanks to you, I found some people mentioned Desert, probably a streamer.
Someone might have posted that fanart to Desert's stream, its chat or something.
