Re: Yiffy been a thing since 2018

seeing as we haven't even met the kid yet, much less had a chance to delve into the interpersonal consequences of this, i'm gonna hold judgement on whether yiffy is "just" a furry joke character. this whole situation is an absurd joke, obviously, but one thing homestuck's been consistently good at i...

Re: Should canon be dencetralized and what is canon?

But they're not doing that. They're just making an official continuation of Homestuck that may or may not have something to say about canon in the future. The epilogues had quite a bit to say about canonicity and authorship, but true, HS2 itself hasnt delved into those themes yet. Guess I've sort o...

Re: Should canon be dencetralized and what is canon?

Just to toss in my two cents: I think decentralizing/abolishing canon is something that Hussie & co. really...*can't* do, just by the very nature of the project? Several people have said that the team needs to do more to decentralize it, but, like, they've already officially and openly put canonicit...

Re: Does Hussie even run WhatPumpkin anymore?

I have every reason to believe that Kathy being excused for her actions is an act of favoritism among the writers, considering Hussie fired an artist for making pornography of a Hiveswap character
oh for fucks sake is this about the god damn nudes again

Re: Unpopular Opinions Thread

what an absurd proposition. every single development made upon a character is going to split some people's opinions. some people didn't like that dirk or jane were made into villains. that doesn't mean the authors should have just "taken the safe route" and made two completely new characters to fil...

Re: Alpha Timeline/Canon Timelines Shouldn't Exist

Paradox Space as a tragic source of endless misery and arbitrary decisions to ruin peoples' lives by making shitty darkfic is valid and all, but it's definitely not something I want to bother with when the story I loved was about superhero kids giving Destiny the middle finger and doing everything ...

Re: NEW TOBLERONE

What if they wish that John is no longer June we (or at least i, and probably others) would ignore it, because its a candy bar, and there's no real reason to take people engaging the game in bad faith seriously when I could just be making/consuming more cool June content. (Which, in my mind, is the...

Re: THE VRISCOURSE THREAD

Did Vriska think Tavros would sprout wings and fly if she pushed him hard enough? The idea that this terrible revenge cycle happened because Vriska was too stupid to know any better is pretty funny to me. Well I never said it was a rational thought process. A lot of it wasn't even a thought process...

Re: On the future of Homestuck

...I really wish I knew exactly what people meant by "diversifying the writerbase". Because I've seen that particular line floating around a few times on Reddit but there never seems to be a lot of detail regarding what perspectives are missing/what changes need to be made and how its affecting the ...

Re: THE VRISCOURSE THREAD

Just to throw my two cents in here: I really, really wish so much of the Vriscourse didn't revolve around trying to figure out if she's a Good or Bad person, because that is, just. Easily the least interesting and usually least productive way to analyze her. Vriska is a fascinating character, but so...
