no more indigenous jake english. we have enough. nobody has the commitment to remotely doing anything with it to justify it.
#YUUUUP#can be said about many depictions....#jake stuff is just especially eyeroll inducing for the way people bend over backwards to ignore the specter of colonization going on#jake

My baby is 13 months old.
I no longer search for milk or baby food.
All I want now… is a piece of bread.

trying to explain the concept of a revolution to a princess but every time i think she's understood it she pauses for a moment, deep in thought, then does a little twirl and says "like this!"

Thoughts on lil Gamby?
cute design but im firmly anti putting gamzee in the comic at this point bc i dont trust how theyd be handled.
i think its kind of interesting that once again they are a character being defined by their silence and acting as a helper but i dont really think its even intentional and if it isss? given how writers have talked about gamzee i dont see anything interesting wrt their agency or characterization coming up + it kind of just feels like inserting a cutesy gamzee playing into that role of silenced servitude is within the context of Fanon making a kind of joke about that being a reading wholly divorced from the story. which. whateverrrr. i am not here to appeal my reading onto people who cant even admit the reality of the character in question being written with racist + sanist undertones and why people maybe dont love This particular character as the whole Has No Personality Outside Of Badguy thing. makes random (even innocuous) insertions of them feel not great but that could just be me and my wounds!
i do think short gamzee is supreme tho how quickly this world forgets she cant reach her pedals </3

and you know what since im already mad if you ever wonder why the meta posters who can write enough blog posts to fill a book about the social relevence of homestuck almost never bring up race when it is such a constant and thematic topic well it might just be because they write black voices the exact same way as andrew hussie did in 2008. which is to say really really racist.
#vagues that are deeply obvious if you know me but im not on the pulse enough wrt fandom to know how risque im being lol.#dare i post the images. no... no i shant....#its clown town

no no see you guys dont get it, the only caste of trolls whos identities and practices make explicit (and racist) reference to west african spirituality and having their peoples ideology misconstrued as a means of oppression are just white guys which is why everyyyy single time we bring them up in any capacity we cannot help but comment on their cultural identity! /s
like at this point the joke is being milked for the explicit purpose of reframing them as white so that people can pretend the author was making some kind of apt commentary on appropriation and not just like... deeply and explicitly uncomfortable with the ways they were witnessing black culture predominate in spite of their excessively white internet bubbles. and it is still just kind of shocking to me how in a work so blatant in its racism (not to MENTION the backlog of hussies prior works, but i will. again. and again and again) that has gone on to reiterate the stereotypes written specifically into the makaras ... that the writers are like. okay with that. with being so blatantly a part of a reframing campaign instead of asking the work they supposedly love so much to speak to its own past. instead if we just strongarm it enough it never happened and this is how it was the whole time guys, trust us. ridiculousssss.
it is so funny how a racial caricature can simply be dismissed if you claim their heritage is white culture vulturism hard enough. all in the name of excusing the author who wrote racist comics like it was their fuckin job for years. and yet this character is still repeatedly at the center of jokes about cultural ties and appropriation. almost like its all bullshit.

yes what the fandom notorious for forum harrassment campaigns needs is new forums. why is everything about this comic an attempt to rewrite and reignite hs fandom nostlagia with a complete blind eye to why it actually sucked ass. lol.
#also how many additional plot elements will we add to a work that hasnt narratively progressed in literal years. truly.#its clown town

the fact that most gender headcanons are rooted more in projection than having anything to do with basis in texts is like. fine ultimately while that approach to fiction is weird/useless/unengaged to me its not like it matters beyond my general gripes with media as brain off escapism rather than having themes that like. matter. but it does bug the fuck out of me for the fact its become the standard and so people will look at how i feel about a characters gender and be like haha yeah fuck canon anything is real when like. sure fuck canon for many reasons but no i actually have a lot of textual basis around why i feel this way. also usually the same brand of people who see me assert a character as transfem and burrow their discomfort in layers of telling me why theyre transmasc or god forbid the "theyre trans every direction actually haha somehow worlds first mtf ftm"
#you simply do not get that latter reaction when u call someone a trans guy. its weird.#its clown town
