it's always bad for adults to interact with minors, which is why when I was born my mother was positioned at the window and I was birthed down a giant slip n slide that safely transported me to the hospital grounds, where I was quickly accepted and raised by a gang of feral babies who were born under similar circumstances. and that's why my posts are so bad

i wish you guys had the context for any references to blastyoboots aka bladekindeyewear to land. he was this obsessive homestuck theorist of the early 2010s and he had this way of engaging with the text that was like, simultaneously kind of shallow in its mechanicity and yet so elaborate and focused that it imo has an artistic value in itself, essentially distinct from homestuck itself. it was like..idk, hesiod's theogony, to the actual practice of greek religion

i think straight up one of my favorite set pieces in all of homestuck is the chamber at the core of the battlefield where the tumor sits. where there's these stone tiles on the walls demarcating the aspects and lunar sways of the players of the session. a place that might have had another vitally important purpose in a proper session maybe

I do love how quietly influential Homestuck has been on a generation of animators because it means sometimes I'm just watching a tv show and I have to pause and ask "hey. is that Dave Fucking Strider in the background?"
