which one of you did this

Update on me (Rune) being banned off my main blog:

I had my access to my primary blog suddenly suspended because of years old project URLs I was never able to utilize. I was told to delete them and I would get my blog back. I deleted them, sent Tumblr an email that I deleted them as I was instructed, and have been waiting days to get my blog back. This happened while I was awaiting a response from Tumblr Support on a completely unrelated bug report. Today the Tumblr Support team told me I found a bug, they are investigating it now, and thanked me for the report. But they have not given me back access to my main blog, the one where the bug occurred.

hey this is Rune. having some issues with my personal blog, but I should be back on it soon. until then I am taking a nap. I am not dead. I am simply snoozing until things get fixed.

Pleased to announce that Splatoon 3's 10/25 update also broke everything. They had to remove an entire game mode.

11 years ago, there was a big update.

Today there was a big update in Splatoon 3. Coincidence?

Probably.

Happy 10/25. Thinking of you all today.

Aaaaand we are back! Thanks for your patience everyone. Been a very confusing weekend. Can you imagine my surprise when I found out that @what-the-fuck-is-homestuck got banned from tumblr? Well, neither can I, because it just suddenly disappeared. No email about how my potty mouth is unwelcome. No email about how giving a play by play of Homestuck is against the rules. No email about how any part of this decade old blog could have ever done anything that broke any rules. Just me, myself, my mod, tilting our heads like extremely confused puppies pretending like this blog does not straight up have "FUCK" in the URL.

I, Rune, have other Fuck blogs. Several of them. So it was really strange to me that only this Fuck blog managed to get got. Where did it go? Who fucking knows! Why did it go? Nobody told me. Just one day, completely gone. And now it is back, and here I am. Made a support ticket Friday night, got the blog back this morning.

I never thought it would happen to meᵀᴹ

Long story short it seems to have been a mistake. No idea how that happened. But here I am again. Our history together remains. Did you miss me?

hi

What the fuck is Homestuck turned 10 today!

What a decade it has been.

I'm kind of out of the loop on Homestuck news, but I think someone was claiming that the kickstarter project was being intentionally ignored in order to produce other content (the friendsims, I guess?) first. So the kickstarter put out an email laying out all the deets and saying the person being used as a source was fired seven years ago and is lying about the information they're providing.

Oh wow. Thanks for letting me in on what you know here.

Just checked my email. So uh...

What exactly happened?

Glad to see you've survived the pandemic so far! I hope things are going well for you. :3c

Oh FUCK I forgot to mention I lived. Thanks! Glad to be here. My mod is also still alive.

For the past few years, I have not been able to physically use computers, so I have not been able to do any liveblogs for a very long time. But that whole deal seems to have improved, and might be slightly less of an issue these days. And by these days I mean literally the past few weeks. That is about all I can say to that extent. It may change at any time.

In some very specific ways, I stayed safe in this pandemic thanks to Homestuck. I have received a lot, lot of help from people I met from liveblogging. Life saving help.

Later this year is the 10th anniversary of this blog. Everyone who followed me in the beginning is an adult now. I say this every time I come back around, but I will say it again anyway. My followers saved my life. Back then, and just recently too. I mean that literally. I took a risk that has kept me alive, and the only reason I gave it a chance in the first place was because of everyone’s support. I still remember that day. I remember so many hospital trips just thinking in my head about my followers, because it was so much fun to get to know new people. Specific ones. In general, too. To me, as a terrified teenager isolated from worsening chronic illness, you were most of what I had. And the most I ever had. Many of those people became my best friends. And even more of you, I have been lucky enough to meet. All across the United States.

So much has happened in the past 10 years. So, so much...you guys remember Dashcon? I mean, not to bring it up, but...you guys remember Dashcon? Wow. And that one time we lost post editing rights. And all those Newgrounds crashes. A lot has changed in the past 10 years. All of us have changed.

A lot of you are no longer on this website. And I know some of you have surely died. But there are people reading this, right now, you included, that are still here. From whenever you joined me. That is so amazing to me, almost all of you have been here for most of those 10 years. It has been a pleasure to grow up with you. I want to stay together for many years more.

Thinking back on just those 10 years, we have watched so many unpredictable things. Witnessed so many moments of hopelessness. We are still here. You are still here with me. This pandemic will end. Life is total bullshit, and nothing is certain. Nothing at all. I think that is something to take a lot of hope in. However bad things are, you do not know that they will stay that way or get worse. No matter how bad anything is. The memories we have shared give me so much hope for who is out there in the world.

There will be more than just than this pandemic. It is not impossible to be happy again. Many of you are now chronically ill after becoming infected. You might be afraid, sad, angry. These emotions are not the end. Most of my happiest memories happened, and nearly all of my best friends I have met after becoming sick. I have been sick for a very long time, and it will get worse. Even now, I am happy. I am so happy. I am so, so happy to have been able to meet all of you. I have had joy while in agony, I have learned how to live, and I can say for certain that it is possible to be happy while in pain. There is so much to enjoy out there in the world, and so many different ways to enjoy it.

Isolation can be overwhelming, crushing. I have been there. This pandemic itself can be overwhelming, for all of us. Right here with that too. There is joy on the other side of this worth looking forward to. The world is changing, but so are we. We can do this. Today you may be standing (or sitting) in a room by yourself. Tomorrow, who knows. Life is bullshit.

How exciting!

I want that fucking beatmap editor back UNBEATABLE

howdy

I was hanging out with some people. Gerard Way was in a box and we couldn’t get him out. When we broke open the crate, nothing was in it but the planks were still singing Helena.

Happy Homestuck day! Have you heard of music?

Do you remember music? The concept of music? Someone is banging out some tunes right now. Can you guess who?

That is right, Robert J! Lake! And you can be, too! Introducing, UNBEATABLE!

Check out that trailer. Holy shit

UNBEATABLE is a rhythm game available right now to back on Kickstarter, alongside a free demo. A bigger, cooler demo is on the way too, featuring words, songs, pictures, and plot. That guy narrating the video is Robert J! Lake, who did a lot of Homestuck music. Like, a whole fucking lot. No secret my favorite of his was Softly from Volume 5, but he did a Whole Fucking Lot of music for Homestuck over the past TWELVE years. Now he does music (and more) for a game that you can back, RIGHT NOW. And that person singing? Is his WIFE, Rachel Lake. And she sounds AMAZING.

If you liked Homestuck tunes, you know RJ’s work. Now you can meet his wife, and his team. Rhythm game jam out to all new hits and hit things with all new jamming gear. (Because in the game the protagonist beats shit up with music equipment, and)

If the Kickstarter reaches 150k, you can put any of your favorite songs into the UNBEATABLE engine and make your own custom beatmaps. Caramelldance your way through waves of enemies. Descend into rhythm hell. That means new Osu is about to drop. But only if you help drop the bass on baddies. With your wallet

Back UNBEATABLE on Kickstarter today!

We

You know, with so many lockdowns in place,
