Re: I hate the whole "canon discussion" the series has taken
Jane was raised to believe she would one day replace a bisexual alien dominatrix as CEO, and she was not groomed for the position because that'd be a disgusting breach of Alternian protocol. Jane has no "white picket fence" future laid out for her, just a company to run and a fortune along with it. ...

Re: What is the normal variation of Lose to Gains in large Patreons?
The canon rhetoric the posts on reddit are based on are based on Hussie's commentary on the epilogues, transcribed here:
It isn't based on the views espoused by fictional characters.

Re: What the hell does Revolutionary Girl Utena have to do with Homestuck?
So, recently I was just clicking through the panels of Homestuck^2 and I happened to notice a particular poster for the anime Revolutionary Girl Utena. Keep in mind, while I do know that it exists, I'm completely unfamiliar with the actual plot of the show. What would warrant the appearance of such...

Re: I hate the whole "canon discussion" the series has taken
Snip I have to ask: What exactly is the beef that some people have with Homestuck act 6 onwards? As far as I know Act 6 only started being a problem until later on for archival readers, and for update readers there was a large pause between Cascade and Act 6 that made people pretty agitated. Either...

Re: I'm afraid for HS^2
Snippety Snip Its basically the same situation form when John gained retcon powers. He hijacked the narrative in universe but it was still Hussie writing a story. This isn't the case. Hussie's "outline" is loose specifically because he's allowing the writers to shape the entire story and have as mu...

Re: Missed Opportunities Thread
The three years wait was a big missed opportunity. The intermissions set on the meteor could've gone into their actual living situation as a callback to each character's original introduction, for one. Seeing their rooms and what their ways of passing time are, it felt essential in acts 1-3 and act ...

Re: I'm afraid for HS^2
Snipsnap Essentially, when a person believes that they are actually a fictional character in human, physical form. Yeah. No bueno. Much like stanning, which comes from being the eponymous Stan from the Eminem song, kinning has also changed in usage to mean something less extreme. It mostly just mea...

idk I just dont necessarily think theyre all that obligated to listen to people who aren't coming to them in good faith which unfortunately I don't think a lot of redditors are I don't think it makes much sense for them to expect much good faith when the by-pecadillos-transphobic villain of the new...

Re: I'm afraid for HS^2
I can't read the bonus update as I'm not a Patreon supporter, but it seems to have confirmed a lot of people's fears that the bonus content gated behind the paywall would be necessary to understanding the story or at least important pieces of the narrative (though I can't confirm this is the case so...

Re: Unpopular Opinions Thread
If you're all going to ignore the first rule of unpopular opinion thread at least do it to discuss Karkat beating LE instead of more discourse. Bad taste, man.

Re: I hate the whole "canon discussion" the series has taken
But then, people didn't like the epilogues. God forbid, something on the internet have an update that a decent chunk of the fandom didn't enjoy. The epilogues had 3 years of buildup and were set up as the real ending to Homestuck that Act 7 and the credits failed to be for a lot of people. They wan...

Re: In Defense of the Homestuck Patreon
Snip Snip I don't get with the idea of a 'slow pace' there. Its literally the beginning of the story right now and setting the groundwork. And its obviously gonna be a pretty big thing so they need the groundwork going. Maybe it would have been better to have all the ground work ready but with that...

Re: Unpopular Opinions Thread
Collide should've been scrapped for a flash in which Karkat repeatedly knocks himself out to keep retrying the Lord English boss until he wins and that should've been the Undertale reference in HS. Set to Iron Knight.

Re: THE DIRKCOURSE THREAD
Snip for space Can you really call it 'tradition' when act 5+ (because let's be real, by act 5 all the pieces were in place for act 6 to have the tone it did) takes up more than 4/5 of the comic I'm not sure what you mean. In no way did Act 5 set up Act 6's tone. The three year wait is set up durin...

Re: Jane choices in the epilogue and Jane in general
Honestly, the epilogues never explain what's wrong with just using ectobiology instead. Troll reproduction canonically creates a lot of mutations and disabilities, and the reason hundreds of thousands of eggs are made at one time is presumably because the hatchlings are expected to compete and cull ...
