I've seen people do this before and I don't value my sanity I guess, so...

If this post reaches 10K notes I'll read Homestuck

I think if you want to make an argument wrt homestucks quality the best argument you can make is Karkat. Cause Karkat's entire meta-theme is that he's infectiously likable even though he comes across like an asshole, and it not only works in the story but like. on a real-world level.

Karkat first appears 1353 pages in as a rando calling the sweetest main character an idiot and by the time he's properly introduced 600 pages later people are so on board with him being the deuteragonist of the story it becomes common to tell people just to skip right to his part. For all Homestuck can stumble while making its convoluted meta-meme as gnostic reimagined thematic hypertext bullshit stick the landing, boy howdy, when it tells you you will love this shouty boy despite yourself, it fucking delivers.

love this shouty boi

my hot take about homestuck is that describing the plot is incredibly easy (several others have done this, so i won’t on this post), it’s the STRUCTURE of homestuck that’s impossible to explain simply

and THATS why homestuck references are the most batshit confusing things ever. because they aren’t about the fairly simple plot, theyre about the weird amalgamation of computer coding, chess, billards, zodiacs, fucking LUCKY CHARMS, etc that make up the building blocks of the background elements that barely have anything to do with the core plot

it’s one thing to say homestuck is about 4 friends that play a game at the end of the world to try and design a new world, it’s another to explain why betty crocker is a pisces alien fish dictator that takes the place of the black queen in the third intergalactic chess game of the series
