Gentle reminder that Homestuck is in fact intended for people who are 18 or older — particularly the grungy little forum-dwelling 20-somethings Hussie was largely associated with on the MSPAForums — and was made in 2009. The adult and offensive content is a natural extension of this. The offensive parts of the writing — such as the racism — are not excused by the time period and where it was made and who it was made for, but it is explained by it.

Another gentle reminder that every time Hussie depicted predatory/abusive dynamics or pedophilic age gaps in Homestuck, he was depicting them as bad and disgusting things, including when his avatar (who is not fully representative of himself and is, in fact, a character) was creeping on Vriska. You are supposed to be uncomfortable about it. That is the intention. Same goes for when incest was touched upon — it is consistently portrayed as bad and disgusting. You are supposed to be uncomfortable about it. That is the intention.

Younger people are technically “allowed” to like it in the sense that while it is intended for mature audiences, it is not inherently pornographic, and was not and still isn’t age gated. Just understand the content wasn’t exactly made with it being read by 15 year olds in mind. Also understand that there is a lot of nuance to things all of the time, and Hussie didn’t shy away from taboo topics on the basis of having expected all of his audience to be in their 20s in 2009 and know him personally.

There’s some legitimately bad stuff in Homestuck that is worth criticism — such as the racism — but Hussie touching on abuse, or making jokes about how incest/pedophilia are fucking gross is not really one of them. He did not condone that. He just wrote about it being deplorable, and mentioned it a lot because… Well, it was 2009, and a big part of Homestuck is “bad things happening to kids.”

Do you think Adrien still has that Looking glass from the season 4 finale?

Boy not even gazing at it wondering what it does? Not even using it as a way to track Felix?

I still wonder about that. Boy had 4 Weeks after the whole destruction debacle, not once thinking about that?

tma fics be like “this is Melanie King and she loves MURDER she wants to KILL all she thinks about is HARMING OTHERS AND KNIVES AND PAIN AND SLAUGHTER she wants to FIGHT EVERYONE and she hates Jon for NO REASON and if shes not killing people she is ANGRY”

SO listen.

this isn't a big deal, truly.

but someone has taken bits of dialogue from choices and used that ai voice thing so that now it's a sound on tiktok.

which is fine, cool.

but also would be nice if y'all could still tag it as choices? or credit it? or something?

and again. it's not a big deal. but just, in general, it is nice to credit authors. that ai voice didn't come up with that dialogue.

it makes me annoyed when i see people insisting that english words should be pronounced like the languages we borrowed them from do. english is a real language yknow. with a real accent. people all over the world LEARN english. its not disrespectful to speak with an english accent while speaking english.

Why is there an empty space next to Dark Urge???

They could have placed the custom Tav option next to Dark Urge. Or adjust the 3 portraits in the second row so that they are in the middle.

Do you also find this aesthetically strange? Why make it weird looking? Am I just fixated on symmetry? lol

I don't know. I am still wondering if there will be surprise origins revealed.

Trying to do something a little bit more painting-esque featuring the Hopeful Steward. It turned out alright, not bad for a first time but definitely can improve.

This is really petty but it's been bothering me.

Vice Admiral.

Sir.

In UNIFORM.

Cyclone.

My brother in the Navy.

[dykeseinfeld]

me in 2024, apparently still annoying: if the roman gods and goddesses only interact in heroes of olympus then why did they encounter janus in battle of the labyrinth. idiot.

When you find a continuity error in Interstellar.. I was watching the film again recently (I happen to love doomsday scenarios) and remembered clocking it the first time I saw it and my memory got refreshed.

Spot the difference.

I do not understand the temptation to peek while others are dressing and do sexual activities with people who don't enjoy it.

"OMG I SAW REBECCA DRESSING I GON JERK IT BRB GIVE ME 15 MINUTES!"

Yeah and girls in your class see her dressing every PE lesson. Even the lesbians.

Would you be comfortable you found out a girl you barely know saw YOU dressing and went to "jerk off"? Or if you found out the gay boy in your class masturbates thinking about YOU after every PE lesson?

What if YOU were the one stuck in the washing machine in the "I'm stuck" scenario? I know some of you cock-brains would enjoy it, but what if your "step-bro" was, let's say, the most repulsive guy you know or your best bro or mayby even both (or a woman for some of you), that wouldn't be fun, would it?

Having sex without consent or proper respect to the other person is sO fUn yoU caN't hELP It until you're the one who can't consent. Think what you're doing. Think who you are. Mayby seek some help. Just please stop.

I really wish more people would understand that being a “good person” in terms of characters (and in real life) does not equate to being nice all the time or doing the thing that is deemed to be “morally correct.” moral ambiguity isn’t always a bad thing either.
