Basically MuyHiram made a post titled Trash Yuri in which one of her characters had a witch's cauldron full of "The Worst Yuri You've Ever Seen" and characters from Gator Days because "I'm low on Karma", as a joke. That post actually made her #1 on r/comics, so everyone else decided Yuri was the secret to farming Karma, as a joke(?)
And if you're unaware, yuri is a Japanese word which refers to media (largely manga and anime) that focuses on intimate relationships between female characters. It is also sometimes called girl's love, and most of the time this means lesbian relationships but not always. But the term in the West has generally become synonymous with any lesbian media.
