Not TF2

(more info below)

Sorry, I don't have any TF2 drawing to show today.

I have work to do and I'm not doing it :/

I've just been watching old videos and kinda fell back into an old fandom.

Anyway, I do have some TF2 drawing in the making, but I really need to work so I don't really know when it's gonna come out :/

I'm mostly posting this because I want to post something tonight. (And because I want to)

The whole touching himself was a parody of the stereotypical incel (white) guy that sits at home and blames everyone for his shitty life and gets randicalized on the internet listening to the likes of Andrew Tate and spending his time doom scrolling Reddit and qanon. He was mocking these guys that think that masculinity is defined by jacking off to porn, eating only meat and spending time gaining muscle as a way to cope with the lack of social life. It was a parody that got more and more ridiculous and theatrical to the point where it blows up and the character realizes that he’s been sold a lie and that what you really need in life is the love of your friends and family, not the shit that internet sells you because the internet makes you believe that the “toxic masculinity” is the only kind of masculinity that should be pursued, when that in fact is not true. I summarized it pretty quickly (there’s more), but that’s the main point

thank you so much anon! I’ve been wondering about this for ages but never sought out an explanation. I have to say, it works lol but idk that matty is someone that a lot of people want to hear incel critique from (and perhaps they’re wrong for it idk)

[highwireshrimper]

stray observation i had listening to the petscop soundtrack last night: the digging sound effects from graverobber are grouped with the sound effects used in randice and wavey’s room. this suggests that there’s something you can or could have “dug up” in that room.

My Journey Through Homestuck Act 3 (pt. 1)

So, am I really back? Let's find out as I begin Act 3 and will finally stop having to say ____ or GG.

This entry will cover pages 002260 through 002841

-Nothing pains me more in analyzing this series than IMMEDIATELY having the urge to look up how every character is described before named. I will resist the urge.

-This is an interesting way to rope in the theoretical player. Also I'm very glad that I can finally say Farmstink, which is definitely definitely her name... I hate this

-I like the war between narrator and player. It's a weird metanarrative that probably won't be too relevant, but is still charming.

-PUMPKINS.

-She is psychic. But we knew that.

-JADE! Finally I can fucking say it! Jade! Jade Harley! (I'm probably gonna forget the last name but whatever)

-Is her shirt gonna keep changing or...?

-It's interesting that the player controls the flute refrain, but one could argue that that is reflective of Jade's psychic powers. Perhaps she is even somewhat receptive to the whims of the player, who, while not exactly a God, does count as a "higher power".

-I have stuff to say about the pumpkin, but I'm gonna wait a few posts.

-Interesting that Jade hasn't set her fetch modus. Even more interesting that you can purchase them.

-I am terrified to see what happens when the fetch modus runs out of space. My guess is that it will pick a random item and fling it out.

-I want to note that fetch moduses are inconvenient, and so is Jade's. However, Jade's fetch modus is not particularly inconvenient for her because of her psychic powers. She has solved the fetch modus problem by applying it perfectly to her person. Compare that to John, who wings it, Rose, who picks something artful, yet particularly hard to use, and Dave, who picks the popular, "technically right" option (if I remember Data Structures correctly)

-I think it's funny that Jade actually does the absurd command, but this time, unintentionally finds a comfortable way to do so. There's a reason why she was separated from the other characters. Thus far she seems to be able to see through blind spots in logic, but often does not quite grasp their context. This is just after meeting her though, so who knows.

-Ah, it seems that this is in the past too. Oh god. Why does time have to be like this? It's like I have to keep a record in my head of what point of time every character exists in relative to each other. Roughly, this appears to be Jade -> Dave -> John & Rose -> Vagabond.

-What pumpkins?

-Also OH MY GOD! IT CHANGED AGAIN! Now it's the slug on John's shirt but blue.

-This shirt changing thing better not mean we're secretly cutting between many alternate timeline versions of Jade. Absolutely nothing I have heard about Homestuck PERIOD says otherwise.

-The fruit have faces on them.

-Oh I get it, cause non themed memory is just fruit.

-Jade is a furry?

-Also, is she a weird combo of the other three characters.

-WHY DOES SHE HAVE GUNS?

-Do we think Jade is going to point the gun at an innocent creature? Are going to actually trust the narrator with this?

-RIFLEKIND!? I mean, if you're actually expecting to fight, I guess so, but still.

-Jade is the min-maxxed character, isn't she?

-Jade's shirt is

Randice is a flower. He does need water, but not as much as he thinks. You shouldn't worry. If you are considering Randice, you should adopt Wavey as well. Wavey knows how to trick Randice.

-Oh, it's that simple?

-Why didn't anyone tell me that Jade is a furry?

-Jokes aside though, I really like this character.

-What if the magic 8 ball's right though?

-Y'all, I think I know why Jade is psychic.

-What if Jade's grandfather made Sburb?

-The base is truly perfect for Jade.

-WHAT THE FUCK!?

-So, not only did Sburb (supposedly) kill the dinosaurs, but the frog thing is that old? What is happening?

-How is Jade's computer not the one killing the Earth?

-I mean, it's gonna be a part of that, but still.

-mirth, though not his own.

-I REALLY do not like the striders. Though, I know I may have read this already. Still though. Goddamn it.

-I think it's interesting to see Dave make a song like this. It's much less intense than the version of him we see. We've already seen Dave be a little different around Jade, so it's nice to see he has someone he can show a different side of his creative expression to (that being said, I really do not remember the first song Dave played).

-Intermission eh?

-Imagine Homestuck's Homestuck's Homestuck's Homestuck

-Wh- what? Did the Act just... stop?

-Oh, back to Midnight Crew I guess.

-Wait. Is Dave supposed to be fighting his brother or Cal? I mean, his brother is clearly op, but I'm assuming he can change Cal's difficulty settings.

-Though I doubt ____ would let his brother go at his favorite puppet with an actual sword if he wasn't confident Dave would miss. (Oh God ITS HAPPENING AGAIN)

-I can't believe this is how Cal attacks. Nevertheless, I'm sure ____ has better things to do during the APOCALYPSE

-How much does Jade know? I mean, she didn't know what Sburb was, but still.

-Fate plays a very important role in this series. Of course, we already knew that. Still, Jade seems very encouraging about Sburb, but she is apparently unaware about the role it plays in the apocalypse.

-Ah, yes. That's what the end of the world is. Fun. A game in fact. A fun game. After all that fucking happens after this point, we better not end with all the characters on their computers on Earth having finished the game. What little I recall from the Sarah Z video opposes that but still.

-And now we return to the apocalypse.

-I can't believe the dead cat was a part of the plan this whole time.

-Granny healer

-Ah yes. The classic feeling of hitting enemies and hoping they'll tell you how much you're hurting them.

-worm

-Interesting, an entity on the supposedly good side has a supposedly evil sword. I say supposed cause I have a real feeling that this is much more complicated than good and evil.

-So, as I've mentioned before, I'm not strictly reading Homestuck. I'm watching the dub on the Voice Over Nexus YouTube channel. For the most part, I think this has been a good decision. It requires much less reading on my part, the voice acting keeps me engaged, and the inclusion of the flash game sections allows me to experience them without having to download the best version of the comic onto my computer. However, here is where a particularly weird quirk comes out. See, up until now, the Sburb guide has been written by Rose. This is something a reader would come to know through context clues, but it certainly helps to hear Rose's VA. For this segment, I can distinctly hear John's VA, which perhaps gives away something before it is revealed.

-Oh, he just said that Rose asked him. Oh well. Another day, another pointless paragraph I guess.

-It's interesting to see John figure out a significant part of the game, It's also interesting how the punch cards are based in something theoretically plausible, though I'm not sure how many combos of captchalogued things there really can be.

-Also it's weird that this entire system is based off of the English language

-For the record, if my math is correct, there are 68719476736 codes. I feel like there are more things in the universe than that.

-Oh that's so weird.

-Oh. My math is way off. Goddamn it. And here I thought I pulled a gotcha.

-It is cool to see that the writer thought through this.

-Excuse me!? Rose has some very important business to attend to.

-Seeing logos relevant to sburb on a company logo is VERY concerning. I mean, they were there before with Jade, but Jade and her world are both eccentric enough to potentially justify it.

-Why is Jade's house black and white now?

-Oh no. Don't tell me Jade's grandpa's weird interest is taxidermy. (It is, isnt it?)

-Oh-no more hobbies!

-Jade and everything around her are such wild cards.

-Jade has sisters?

-Another worm?

-WHO THE FUCK IS THIS?

-Oh, CG is a _____, aren't they? First relevant in Act 5 my foot, my poor poor foot.

-Again. Is there no way to access the leaves on the tree?

-AHA! Still not sure what to do about the cat though.

-Skaianet? Oh-no

-NO! THEY KILLED THE WORM!

-There must be something thematic about timers in this series

-A note about the Striders and their fight. Dave and ____ have two distinctly different fighting styles. Dave's fighting style prioritizes heavy hitting and strong attacks, while utilizing dodges at his primary defense tactic. ____ alternatively uses blocking, and prefers to attack in ways that catch the opponent off guard, not even using the sword to do so. What's also notable is that Dave puts more focus on offense, trying to get in as many hits as possible, while ____ puts more focus on defense, blocking until he can catch his opponent off guard. Notice that this is the perfect counter to Dave.

-I wonder, if this company is here, then what is the supposed fate that drives everyone forward? Is it a higher power, or is it an illusion of a higher power generated by the exploits of an institution?

-So, if there are meteors spawning without a session, what starts the meteors? The game is involved, but what is it doing?

-I feel like the meteors are coordinated to destiny or something, which is pretty messed up.

-The only comment I have on John's fighting style is that he is improving, but must actively rely on others to find success. Or at least that's what I would leave it at, if I didn't acknowledge that unlike Dave, John is finding success. Perhaps Dave cannot defeat his brother alone, but he might if he had the help of an ally.

-OH GOD DAMN IT! There goes several of the points in my Act 1 analysis! See you all next fall!

-So, is Sburb fucked up or isn't i?

-The worst part is I just know there are homestuck fans who perfectly know every grist type, possibly including future me.

-Dramatic Irony for Granny at work

-Riddles are a recurring motif in this series. Just making a note of that.

-Oh this is different.

-The shaving cream sound should not have made me laugh as much as it did.

-I should note that Graveyard Stuffers is an interesting phrase in that it antagonizes John and his father for a legitimate and understandable reason. If we step back a moment, we can realize that John isn't just killing enemies in a game, he's killing people with feelings... I'm gonna do all this analysis to make the evil side look good and then watch them do the most reprehensible shit, aren't I?

-Also has anyone else struggled to not call Sburb "Homestuck"?

-And so we are the Peregrine Mendicant, who is our first exposure to the side of "good". Seeing as they killed the friendly worm, I'm not too confident in them.

-I'm fascinated by the nature of being trapped in Homestuck. We've seen two of these strange entities trapped in mysterious spaceships, but also, the nature of Sburb traps players in their homes, requiring them to expand their homes rather than leave and venture somewhere else. The one question I'll ask for now is this: If you are trapped somewhere for an extended period of time, does it become your home?

-The doctor died in the apocalypse, didn't he?

-All the senders and recipients of mail are probably dead. This is just sad.

-Prediction: The PM (Peregrine Mendicant) will be able to use this computer to mind control Rose (or at least another main character)

-Oh, interesting glimpse of Future Jade

-What if Jade isn't psychic, but is instead being sent messages from the future?

-Okay. It seems my prediction is immediately proven wrong. Sigh.

-Wait. WTF? The machine just explodes!?

-Wow. A tea set.

-This entire situation is so weird. Like this is for an alternate version of Rose and with a separate cat? Perhaps this is a representation of a younger Rose's room?

-I'm intrigued by how much they've built up John's Father's room.

-Okay, black and white colorization is an interesting way to convey darkness.

-I want to make fun of Jade's grandpa's beliefs that Jade should arm herself, but I really don't have it in me

-I love how the narrator is just arbitrarily picking and choosing who to focus on at a particular moment. Such is the nature of elaborate storytelling.

-Oh, never mind. I guess Dave is just not in a good spot right now.

-Is Jade's grandpa... dead? That's... unexpectedly morbid. Who's been looking after her?

-This fight scene would be funny if I wasn't still shocked by Jade's dead grandpa.

-I have nothing yet to say about Jade's fighting style.

-Good on Jade for successfully confronting the adult figure in her life and choosing to live how she wants... I guess?

-This is actually really sad.

-good worm

-Did I hallucinate a cat meowing in Homestuck!?

-Also is that Polybius? (The scream of my first creepypasta phase can be heard in the distance)

-Oh. It's just an appearifier

-Time traveling in Homestuck is fucked

-Wouldn't the nature of the Butterfly Effect (albeit the pop culture version) just prevent the removal of all past objects in general?

-O... kay. I certainly wasn't expecting a time machine trying and failing to create a copy of Jasper from the past would be how we rope him back into the plot.

-Wait. So Jasper was appearified, presumably in the then present, and then his corpse just showed up? Either that or we're building up to a major paradox.

-Also what's with all the major plot points about corpses!?

-Oh-no. Jasper being missing in time for a week can only mean time travel. Can't wait for Rose to break time in Act 5 Act 2 (I'm being sarcastic here, but if this is actually right then holy shit).

-This is so haunting

-Is the cat with Rose now Jasper from the past? Yea-probably.

-Woah. New location.

-Also. It just occured to me that there is probably a corpse in Dave's life that I just don't know about yet.

-The PM is rather endearing

-Also, I just realized. PM can also stand for Post Man

And that's it. To be honest, I think I'm gonna put off the Act 2 Analysis for a bit longer, assuming I even do it ever, if for nothing else than just that I'm getting really into it now. Besides, the space between Act 3 and an Act 2 analysis is the perfect spot for my own special intermission. For now though, I'll see you around next time for the rest of Act 3.
