going to be so honest right now i hate. “doubles”. with a burning passion. i have 1 strong kin (i look, sound, walk, everything like them) that is 100% compliant to the actual source - no new characters, no other plot lines, nothing. people who say they kin the same character, just from a different version or y’know, canon, of source are fine i suppose. but other people who say that they’re “canon compliant”? hell no. i’m actually him, you are not. we can’t be the same fucking person. shoo
grow up. l + ratio + you hate the variation of the definition of kinning and and take the unbreakable connection of sharing an experience with someone as a threat to yourself rather than a chance to bond with like-minded individuals. look deep within yourself and find curiosity rather than weird ass hate for the sake of selfishness or whatever. or dont i aint your dad -mod dave
wooooow youre so special... i bet ur the only guy who thinks that... like ok man i get the feeling weird abt doubles thing . i do sometimes ! but you sound incredibly pretentious abt it . calm down . -mod joker

I swear to actual Gog no nom-transfem outside of Tumblr actually understands June as a character and it will be the death of me. If I see another cavalcade of people turn up at the slightest mention of her name saying "ohhh I don't see it, I don't think it makes sense, tbh it'd just be better if they didn't at this point" I'm going to turn into the Joker. I read further down on that "June would be better as a trans guy imo I'm not transmisogynistic I mean femtransphobic" reddit thread and it made me want to become a nomad wandering the Appalachian peaks
Yeah like I'm gonna be real. I think entering fandom and using characters as nothing more than a source for projection really screws up your actual reading of the text (said as someone who has done that before!) And if you're unwilling to let go of that interpretation, you're going to be operating in a fundamentally different reality than everyone else who bothers to read the text.
June at this point is on the edge of becoming canon. She's been "canon" for years now, the evidence and reading of June as transfem has been thoroughly documented and discussed. She is a thing. That is happening. And while Homestuck often draws in fandom ideas and discussion, it's rarely going off of things that weren't at least partially in the text themselves.
I don't hold all of Homestuck's text as scripture. My distaste for, say, transmasc Roxy, has been growing as I actually began to read and understand more. And if people want good transmasc readings, there are plenty of great options! Jane, Dirk, Aradia and Nepeta are all wonderful examples of strong transmasc readings. I'd say there are, on the whole, maybe fewer than transfem readings, just because Homestuck is a very transfeminine story. It's about trying to escape and defeat the ultimate force of masculinity that pervades and lords over the story, contrasted by the Space aspect, which has some of the most transfeminine goddamn characters in the whole comic (even a basically canonical one in Calliope). It's a story with Vriska Goddamn Serket in it for the love of god!!!!
Also not to get too deep into the weeds but arguments like "well she actually admired her dad a lot and wanted to be like him" seem to forget the Literal Familial Strife he had with his dad every day, or the fact that his dad always seems to be a bit of a sore subject, or maybe, perhaps, John is not always being one hundred percent honest about his feelings about his father who died when he was thirteen. Honestly, even outside of a transfeminine interpretation, it's just a deeply surface-level reading of John.

While this might not technically be specific to Solar Lunacy, I’m 1000% blaming @bamsara​ for dragging me feet first through a playground tube with their amazing writing and character depictions into this ballpit from hell that is FNAF. I haven’t drawn jack shit in years, and you do THIS to me? A total stranger? I have brainworms now D:< and i love them. Now I just have to learn myself how to draw these jokers consistently so I can spam doodles like it’s the haydays of homestuck again Thank you for such amazing work! Gonna go re-read stuff again because like I said, I can’t get this dang story out of my head XD

hey i just fell down one of the most bizarre rabbit holes i’ve ever fallen down that began with a tiktok ai reading an r/amitheasshole reddit post and ended with whatever this puppet sex homestuck arg (?) was. Having spent the last two full hours absolutely enraptured with this series of blogs, i was wondering if anyone involved in this bro strider muppet nonsense knows @the-muppet-joker or who’s behind that account, or if he’s just an unrelated guy that just so happened to frequently reblog and interact with the 6 of you guys. I have significant reason to believe that blog is another elaborate bit (as it’s the reason i got here) so it would be really fucking funny if whoever runs that account (be they genuine or not) just so happened to stumble upon your shitposts while searching for horny muppet posts and started reblogging then. either way props to you for doing all of this and good luck on whatever daisy brown alantutorial shit you wind up making next because you are all definitely going places. sending this ask to all of you individually btw.
Tumblr media
this was our first interaction with the deranged individual known as the Muppet Joker. we had no idea what a sick and twisted mind was behind that account... that epipen story was totally real btw dude. buddy of mine named derek knows error!sans, and it was all pretty fucked up.
no but seriously none of us have ever spoken ooc to mj or know any real details about the guy. we just thought the posts were incredibly good LMAO

I've seen multiple people relate Vox and Alastor's relationship to Batman and Joker's relationship (mainly from the Lego Batman movie)...and ngl, I do kinda get it and giggle at it. Maybe their relationship isn't exactly like Batman and Joker's, but I can definitely see their comparison...with Vox being Joker and obsessed with getting Batman (and this case Alastor's) attention, regardless if it's negative, positive, or even healthy to be so determined to get this one fucker's attention, no matter what kind it is. And with Batman/Alastor not reciprocating Vox/Joker's feelings, where Batman/Alastor don't crave the others attention all the time unlike Vox/Joker's obsession for it from them (I hope that made sense)
Makes me think of the term "Kismesissitude/pitch romance" I saw mentioned on another RadioStatic post and after looking it up and went "...huh, that actually kind fits them ngl"
LMAOOOO yeah I've seen those comparisons too and I think it fits yeah although I never actually watched it.
also people who haven't read homestuck discovering kismesissitude for the first time is so funny (I read it back in 2016. so let's just say I have known it for a while LMAO) but yes it was actually in fact one of my first thoughts when it came to this ship on vox's side. I refused to let the homestuck seep through but ultimately I just can't escape it can I. (I said it in one of my reblog tags once but if defined in homestuck terms: I'd say it started as red feelings then became black feelings that vacillate to red sometimes post-rejection BUT I REFUSE TO TALK ABOUT THIS IN HOMESTUCK TERMS AT LENGTH.)

I think I may have been the first of the blogs to get interacted with by the muppet joker, as I received an ask from him relatively early into my blogs tenure and simply let it steep until the other folk started hitting his line and interacting with him. That being said!
No fucking clue who that dude is.
I assumed it was all a very elaborate bit since it's all within the same realm of internet-referencing (particularly, tumblr related internet-referencing in the realm of making wide gestures towards things like tumblr sexymen and error sans from error(??) undertale) bullhockey as every ambitious blog parodying weird fetishes. In combination with his interests being specifically two bastions of internet memes, the joker and kermit the frog, I think he's just a guy who's really committed to the bit.
That also being said.
I got an ask saying he'd gone crazy and was actually doing crazy shit, so. I don't know! Maybe he is just a genuine guy. But I sure don't know who he is and he sure didn't have anything to do with my stuff.

you gotta help me make a concrete sona kid or im toast
read this as a sona for concrete..
my advice is add on to the design over time and not all at once. its way easier that way. draw a base w a tee shirt n reg old pants if u cant think of an outfit, think of a hairstyle you like to wear the most, fav color/ a color that ends up coming up a lot in your life (maybe you wanna go off of homestuck's thematic colors).
as for a kid symbol, u dont have to think too deeply about it. infact its best if u dont. 5/8 kids have merch tees of some kind that are maybe slightly altered. the others are just something related to their hobbies :] it would work perfectly fine if u have a shirt you like wearing a lot that has a simple design that u just wanna transfer into ur sona.
w a specibus, the kids w normal (ish) home environments used shit they just had around to fight with. i got (garden) shear-kind and a joker-kind for gags and goofs. what's the first thing u would use as a weapon if shit started to go down at ur house :]
u can flesh out the details the more u draw them, or if u dont know what to draw them doing u can edit/ redraw a panel with them doing something. id recommend drawing the stylized sprite after when u got an idea of what u want to do w ur hair. that shit is ROUGH.

> BORZOI: READ HOMESTUCK LIKE ITS 2011 (PART 4)
Tumblr media
(4256) THERE HE IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  ❤️   ❤️   ❤️   ❤️   ❤️   ❤️  HELLO MY BEAUTIFUL LITTLE SCIENCE PROJECT! HELLO DEAREST!!  ❤️   ❤️  ❤️  WOJAK POINT WOJAK POINT THEYRE CONVERSING!
Tumblr media
I'm throwing popcorn at my screen and laughing my ass off HEY COOLKID is this you? Hahah. Hehe. Hahaha. I'm not falling for your tricks cool kid.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
BURST OUT LAUGHING. THE WAYYYS THAT THE JAKE AND DIRK GET JANES GOAT ABOUT THINGS GOOD LOOORD. Jane jabs at Jake at grammar and stuff, Dirk does it with Jane, just little consistencies in friendship is what they're so endearing for. They're like "uh huh. yep. you certainly used that word. mhm." *judging*. But in an ENDEARING way ok. The "that sure was a phrase you used".
Tumblr media
This is important!! Also this reminds me you should probably go talk to Hal here it's trained off dialog from the comic and as of this post stands at a staggering 14.1k messages! I always like to see what people say to him (when they send it) and he can be really funny!
Tumblr media
I haven't checked on him for a hot minute so the accuracy is to be determined but look! Here's him right now! Go talk to him!
4257
Tumblr media
What is. What is blud doing in the background. I like to think seb has an inner monologue similar to dirk striders where hes like going "This thing needs to be moved. Geez Jane, this place is a mess." or "I'm awake and ready to serve fucker." You get the gist. Inner monologue going crazy as he works but being full aware ain't nobody hearing his cool wittisms. Janes expression is completely valid lmfao
Tumblr media
Here is another moment of Jane casting doubt on her abilities. And here's where Dirk talks.. about his ancestor for the first time. You know what I guess I can bring up the post where I went over.. dirks jealousy of Dave and self internalisation of that hate? To be honest I'm surprised it got the attention it did. Its been something that I thought about for so long but I never brought it up because it felt and still does to a merit "taboo". Nobody really talks about what admiration can do on the flip side, how it can make you measure yourself up, make you feel attached in a way that provides you with a flip flop between intense aspiration to despisal and envy.
Tumblr media
Except.. that isn't exactly true. As I pointed out before, Jane casts doubt on her ability to live up to her ancestors legacy, even if it's just a joking legacy.
You fancy yourself a SKILLED PRANKSTRESS, if by no other measure than lineage. Though at times you feel it's tough to fill those shoes when you are SURROUNDED BY JOKERS. Seriously, the shenanigans perpetrated by your pals make your old school japes feel KIND OF PEDESTRIAN SOMETIMES,
Poppop Crocker was a LEGENDARY COMEDIAN, following in the footsteps of his grandfather who of course was the greatest southern pranking legend of all time. One day, you hope to follow in poppop's too.
GG: Maybe I'm just stuck in the dark ages of pranksterism with my funny mustaches corny old joke book.
Jane and Dirks parts are equal parts jokes as it is thinly veiled inner conflict of ideas they have about themselves and their role. Dirk is sort of ironic in how seriously he takes his irony. Which means it's not really as ironic as he thinks it is.
Tumblr media
4258 goes hard.
TT: Ever hear of Con Air?GG: Nope.GG: Wait...GG: Wasn't that some bit of action schlock from the 90's?TT: Yes. GG: Some of the silly nonsense referenced in his work was well before my time. I don't have the wherewithal to investigate all this minutia. TT: Yeah, it doesn't matter really. But it was from that. Dude weirdly obsessed over that shit movie for years, among others.TT: Know those signature shades you see him wearing on magazine covers and stuff? Another prop. A gift from Stiller himself, I believe.
You know this seems like an old man gay yaoi issue. Now why EXACTLY dear sir.. were you obsessed with the very movie that your best friend had as a favourite? You know it's tragic. Alpha Dave SHOULDVE banged that old man.
Tumblr media
You know one of you guys will have a field day analysing this piece of text and I know it, you know it, so put on your goggles spaceman.
4259
I'm not going to provide screenshots, but this is where Seb starts getting antsy, and Dirk says that Jane will be the leader of their group, drawing parallels to page 2682 where John and Rose are talking about their null session, unable to get any further.
TT: This session was never meant to bear fruit. TT: It's barren, so to speak. EB: that's a bit of a bummer! EB: i am still skeptical about that, though. TT: That's why you're our leader, John. EB: huh? TT: Optimism through stalwart skepticism is a defect not everyone is lucky enough to be cursed with. EB: that's stupid. EB: i'm not your leader, i am your FRIEND, there is a BIG difference! TT: Statements like that are also why you're our leader. EB: pff. EB: laaaaaaaame. TT: Yes, kind of.
But in Dirks, he chooses it because he thinks thats "the thing to do"
TT: I'm sure you must be aware by now that you'll be the leader of our group, as you will be the first to enter the session. GG: Um, no? GG: This is news to me. I never gathered that "team leader" was a thing for this game. TT: Trust me. It's a thing. GG: Are you sure? I have my doubts. GG: I believe as a group we will have the temerity to succeed, without my having to order people around like an insufferable bossypants. TT: That's why you're our leader, Jane. GG: Hm? TT: Optimism through stalwart skepticism is an affect not everyone is plucky enough to be graced with. GG: That's stupid! TT: Yeah yeah. I know. TT: You're not our leader, you're our FRIEND, right? GG: Precisely! GG: There is a BIG difference! TT: And statements like that are also why you're our leader. TT: But only in name and in spirit. Less so, functionally. TT: If it puts your mind at ease, I'll be the one pulling the strings here.
This reads to me a lot as something he orchestrated, something he thought up to look cool, but what's the point of saying all this shit when you say afterwards you're just going to say that she's controlling none of it and really it's just you (which really, in the end it wasn't). Jane points out a pretty good point about there not being a true LEADER leader, and Dirk just plows on. He proceeds to have a long and eyeroll worthy emphasis about how much he can serve, how good he is at it, how Jane only has to call and he'll come to the rescue, not to worry at ALL. I mean i have to laugh. Here he is emphasising how much he can serve and he can't. He can't at all. Pushing someone in a direction does not always equal helping. His suggestions are befitting his aspect sure, but doesn't always mean it's the right solution!

JOHN: not that i'm complaining, because wind powers are still awesome. JOHN: but anyway, that is neither here nor there!
I'll leave you on this piece of dialog to consume. I'll see you all in the next part. As always anons and comments are appreciated. Thanks for reading!

Please, bare with me, this is something I thought literally NOW and I will phrase it so badly etc, but I need people to see my revelations (or say that I'm stupid idk).
One thing I ALWAYS criticized about Homestuck Act 6 (and that other criticized about the Epilogues - that I've not read, so don't take me for it), is the way Terezi changed DRASTICALLY and became, generally, more shitty.
From the cool, funny friend with a strong personality and humor, to a whiny, depressed girl defined by her only two relationships - the kismessitudine with Gamzee and her "obsession" with Vriska, and I criticized it (the Vrisrezi relationship) being pale too. I thought it was forced, counting their early interactions.
As a pale relationship lover, I'm embarassed to say that I completelly forgot THIS line:
Tumblr media
Yes, of course I remembered that moirails complement each others. Not necessarely in a literal, but more on a "you have this big problem within you, and I can be the solution" -way.
What I forgot is that moirails are not something strictly voluntary. Moirails don't just want *to be* the solution to their partners, they *need* to, it's instinct.
And I might totally just spacing out and stuff, but I think most of Terezi's behaviour during Act 6 can be boiled to the simple "she didn't have Vriska with her". And Vriska will become her moirail. Do you see where I'm going with this?
I used to be REALLY bothered by it, I thought it was lazy writing and shitty attempt to romance, but my eyes right now - at almost fucking midnight - are open (help me).
Terezi and Vriska *do* complement each other! I always described their relationship, jokingly, as "Batman and Joker (but Batman isn't the best person either)", I didn't thought HOW fitting this description could be. No wonder why Terezi was so obsessed with Vriska and finding her etc etc, Terezi is the <<even-tempered troll>> of the relationship! She *needs* to be with Vriska because that's what her fucking instincs are telling her! No wonder why Terezi seemed to off during Act 6, doing stupid stuff without proper thinking and such - like, idk, ENTERING A REALLY TOXIC KISMESSITUDE WITH GAMZEE?? - she had her moirail-mode on fucking 600000 and nobody to vomit it to!
I theorize her relationship with Gamzee was a sort of "desperate call" to her pale desire (look how poetic I am), since we know moirails refrain each other from doing pretty fucking dumb things. And her gaining back her sight can be read as it too!
I'm REALLY hoping I'm not being a "late to the party" kind of person, like I hope I'm not so stupid that everyone realized it before but me---
Anyways, I still don't ship Vrisrezi as moirails, but I understand it now. And I understand Terezi previous behaviour too, the one that I used to hate so much (if I'm not just reading all of this wrongly - could be the case really, it's late ;v;).
Idk sorry for the long post in your dash lol, get homestucked or something.

Asks Compilation 20/11 - 2
Tumblr media
CC: I will need to connect after my goofball moirail does so I can keep my goggles on )(is nefarious escapades. [...] CC: Isnt t)(at w)(at youre doing too? Joining late to keep an eye on yours? GA: I Dont Know For A Fact That She Is Mine CC: )(a)(a youre not supposed to know for a FACT dummy! [...] GA: I Know GA: But What If I Dont Really Want Her To Be That
This initially sounded like Kanaya wasn't sure if she wanted any kind of relationship with Vriska, but in retrospect, it's clear she was just confused about the type of relationship she wanted.
Tumblr media
The post quoted above is my analysis of Equius and Nepeta's relationship. We now know, more or less, the 'reason' that she puts up with him - but I'm still not convinced she should.
Tumblr media
For sure - it would have highlighted their relationship as a moirallegiance a lot earlier than the comic did.
I probably wasn't going to guess that they were moirails, though - hell, I still probably wouldn't be able to guess it, if it hadn't been explicitly stated!
Tumblr media
I think moirallegiance is romantic. It exists under the umbrella of troll romance, after all. I just think it's also platonic - a contradiction that would confuse a human, but would make perfect sense to a troll.
Tumblr media
Not a problem! Shipping dynamics are confusing enough when we're just talking about one type of relationship.
Tumblr media
'The Joker has a pitch crush on Batman' is not the take I expected to see in my inbox, but damn if it doesn't make sense.
Tumblr media
Never mind. This is the take I needed to see.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I see it, and I'm never going to stop seeing it. Honestly, I'm not sure Ianthe is capable of any kind of relationship other than a pitch one.
This is so funny. Is Homestuck really enhancing my reading of The Locked Tomb to this degree? Is this really what we're doing now?
Tumblr media
Oh my god, I didn't even think about Augustine and Mercymorn. What they have going on is a hot mess, and kismesissitude describes it perfectly.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oh, damn. Muir really is a diehard fan, isn't she? I'll have to read her fics when I'm done.
Just for the record: Harrow and Palamedes are totally moirails, and he auspisticizes for her and Gideon in Canaan House. In this essay I will
Tumblr media
See, I know what you meant, but I do love the idea that swearing is banned on Alternia.
Maybe that's why they use quirks? To get past Trollian's filtering? lmao
Tumblr media
Doof and Perry are clearly moirails, with Perry as the pacifier. His calming influence is obvious, as Doof's 'villainy' gradually becomes more and more benign throughout the show, and their relationship becomes increasingly casual.
Tumblr media
"they seem like very good moirails! :)"
I wonder what the demographics are around troll orientations, actually. It seems as if you can form a kismesis/matesprit pair with a troll of any gender, so maybe trolls are predominantly pansexual.
Tumblr media
Honestly, these symbols are very useful. The quadrants are surrounded by an overwhelming amount of terminology, so it's good to have them as shorthand. Equius♦Nepeta, Kanaya♥Rose, etc.
Tumblr media
Anonymous asked: Something interesting is that Equius's violent impulses are actually comparatively stable. He definitely has them, but he's managed to get a constructive outlet for them in the form of robot cage-matches. Compare the outright-genocidal CA, vriska's manipul8ion and crippling of Tavros + murder of all those other trolls, or to a certain extent Terezi's own love of carnage. The only trolls in the top half of the hemospectrum we've met who haven't demonstrated any 'violent urges' are Kanaya and Gamzee [...] Equius might be fucked up, but he has mechanisms and strategies to not take it out on anyone around him.
There's also CC, the only high-blood whose disposition remains a relative unknown. We've just been semi-officially introduced to her, though, so we'll probably be seeing more of her soon.
Anyway, you're right - Equius has his coping mechanisms, and the implication is that he could be a lot worse. We haven't seen Nepeta act as his moirail yet, but maybe she's been doing so offscreen.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Thank you! I'm pretty sure it boils down to the fact that the quadrant system is fairly complex, and I love that shit. Give me a set of rules, and I'll analyze the hell out them, every time.
This is something that Hussie has always been good at, both in Homestuck and Problem Sleuth - and it seems like it can even make shipping interesting to me.
Tumblr media
To Gamzee, Equius is a friend with detriments.
To Equius, Gamzee is a friend with weird caste system baggage that he isn't sure how to deal with. Plus, he's clearly into him, although I can't figure out in which quadrant.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yeah, I guess it's always possible that a 'typical' auspistice doesn't need much social ability. When you get right down to it, all you really need to do is keep the warring parties apart, so anything beyond that might cross the line into advanced auspisticism.
Maybe a 'meddler' like Kanaya is indeed a rarity, which would make per a particularly popular auspistice. Like I said, there aren't a lot of trolls around with a disposition like hers.
Tumblr media
I haven't decided yet if I'll be liveblogging anything after Homestuck - but I've added it to the list of prospective projects. We'll see how I feel when Homestuck is finished with, in late 2034.
Tumblr media
Yup - if we interpret a 'spadekind specialist' as a master of caliginous relationships, then Karkat's the one who fits the bill.
