@rarest-tintin said: this has always been my problem with people drawing Spamton super small. like he's 5 foot at least

I'm a Scientist, so I wanted to take a proper comparison of a good handful of the overworld sprites to investigate this. obviously this isn't an exact science ! toby's sprite sizes have always been a little out of wack. but this is what we have to go on !

and I ended up putting kris at 5 foot even !

and even then, this feels like it's pushing it. noelle technically being 6'5 is Crazy, and asgore being WELL over 8 feet.... Lordy <3

but ! 5'11 susie, 5'6 berdly, and noelle's Actual height being around 5'5 passes the sniff test !

and this would put Spamton at just around 4'8/4'9 !

PERSONALLY I'd probably shift them all Down just a little (maybe spamton 4'5? at least so noelle isn't SIX AND A HALF FEET TALL), but this works for me <3

as for your other question !

also his head is very large now that u mention it, are the other Addison's heads as large?

his head is pretty significantly bigger than the rest of the addisons !

the biggest difference is definitely between him and yellow (who has the most similar hairstyle too !). I'd find it pretty likely that his head used to be smaller before. Whatever happened to him

[tobi-smp]

continuing my investigations, while spamton's sprite IS upsettingly tall compared to kris, it's clear that it's just down to his Engorged Head. it's literally bigger than his entire body, his shoulder only goes up to kris' elbow

I've also included a line where I THINK his sprite would end if his hair wasn't combed back, adding volume. but even without it he's still a couple pixels shorter than kris

one of the things that I appreciate about c!dream is that we get that “revealing his true colors” moment Again and Again and Again, and it’s never repetitive because he Always Always gets worse.

the final control room, the 16th, the spirit speech, exile, the beach party, destroying logsted, stalking tommy after his escape, tearing tubbo down at the green festival, doomsday and the top of the obsidian grid, the disc war finale, killing tommy, hunting tommy down after his escape, following through on his promises to torture and haunt tommy

there’s always More, the horror always Escalates and its believable when it does

[tobi-smp]

in honor of an anon giving me a new one for free, I’d like to make an updated compilation of the worst takes in the fandom

[tobi-smp]

so much of the fandom glosses over the fact that tommy was blind in limbo, he could only hear wilbur's voice, he didn't see him again until that first moment after wilbur's revival

did some research to remind myself that the spamton acid theory didn't come from nowhere, and that the evidence behind it is still relevant to our analysis of the character. because whether I believe it or not, I feel like we're a little too quick to put mock the past

I know people headcanon spamton with DID, is this screenshot from the spamton sweepstakes well known? I don't think I've seen it before when people talk about it

"when I look at this man be feminine it makes me feel deeply uncomfortable and disgusted, Especially if I share something in common with him. it makes me feel like I'm being degraded, like I'm lesser somehow

that must mean that HE'S being homophobic towards ME"

"you're making this character feminine you're making this character trans you're making this character bottom you're making this character submissive. why can't you let him act like a REAL MAN? why can't he have agency? you guys are SO homophobic"

I need some of you to start looking inward NOW

[tobi-smp]

calling any gay relationship "heteronormative" is homophobic and I'm not pretending like it isn't. "oh but the twink-" bodytypes and fashion doesn't make someone not a man and 90% of the time the guy isn't a twink anyways, you just mean that you think it's faggy

throughout all of this, I've realized that my own download of the unofficial homestuck collection was the v1, since I haven't updated it since the original release. SO ! here's a guide to getting the latest (and probably last) version of the ohc up and running for dummies (aka me) + mods !

Client + Assets

1: make a desktop folder titled "homestuck" 2: find the client folder for you computer here (win-64 for windows) https://github.com/GiovanH/unofficial-homestuck-collection/releases/tag/v2.7.0 3: download the asset pack here https://bambosh.dev/unofficial-homestuck-collection/upgrade.html 2+3b: or grab both here, but I haven't verified the downloads myself https://x.com/chloecadaverica/status/1953866652900102321 4: unzip both folders and place them in the homestuck folder 5: rename the asset pack folder to Asset_Pack_V2 if it isn't already 6: open up the homestuck collection in the asset folder (and probably pin it to taskbar so you don't have to do it again) 7: it's gonna tell you to search for the asset folder, just click the thingy to find it in the desktop homestuck folder you made

Mods

1: just take the mods you want here [on the individual github pages hit the green [Code] and the "Download ZIP"): https://github.com/GiovanH/unofficial-homestuck-collection/wiki/Third-Party-Mods 2: and put them in the "mods" folder in the asset pack 3: open homestuck and it'll automatically unzip the mod folders, but you'll probably need to refresh the mod list or the application to see them (in the next step !) 4: hit [Settings] and then scroll down to [Mod Settings], you should see a list of your mods sorted by "inactive" and "active," all you have to do is drag and drop them where you want ! 5: if a mod isn't working after all of that, look inside the folder and see if there's a folder Within a folder before giving up ! you'll most likely see the Actual folder next to a read me that you just need to pull out to the main mod folder for the site to read it properly.

my list of recommended mods under the cut <3

The homestuck commentary mod [turned on both commentary options in settings]

Damara [translates damara's japanese text]

Morse translator

Easter Eggs

Rex Duodecim Angelus + [turned on the recommended settings]

The homestuck slur replacement project

[S] Seer: Ask

I might add more later ! but this is what I've got now

I'm just thinking alright I'm just asking questions

[tobi-smp]

ralsei is the bathbomb kris flushed down the toilet, that's why he can show up in all of the dark worlds by default he's in all of the pipes in town

I never understood why there was so much contention around the undertale genocide route being Called the genocide route. the only way to activate it is to hunt down every single monster that exists in every single section of the game until there's nobody left (with very few exceptions).

that's why it's distinct from a neutral route where you kill everything you encounter. you can get a Bad neutral route, but you can't get the genocide route unless your goal is to kill All monsters.

it was called the genocide route because you quite literally commit genocide

I'm starting a conspiracy theory that hussie killed the unofficial homestuck collection because of the mods people made to take out the slurs

how my morning has gone:

1: post an impromptu essay with sources and citations 2: almost stick a straw up my nose
