"Irish doesn't have a word for please, you have to say if it be your will" buddy do I have news for you about "please"
"Irish doesn't have a word for hello you have to use a shorthand religious blessing" buddy do I have news for you about "goodbye"!
"In Polish the word for car is that which walks by itself" BUDDY what do you think an AUTOMOBILE is?
you have got to understand that your mother tongue is not the model of language. all your words have secret histories and layers of meaning just the same as other people's words. the word you think of as just a word has etymology, it wasn't handed down from God as a finished word. English doesn't have a word for movie you have to either refer to the recording medium or use a short version of "moving picture", isn't that cute?

Anyways, to all fictionkind: validity is a myth.
Be yourself. Do what you want. Let no one’s words deter you from living out your truth. If a framework works for you, then good. If multiple frameworks apply to your experience, that’s great. If you don’t care about frameworks, even better.
You don’t owe anyone, not even your peers, an explanation for your fictionhood. This is general advice to live by, but some may need to hear it considering today’s events. Someone else’s words have no relevance over what you experience.
I’m unapologetically someone from fiction. I am a fictional character. I am a member of many fictional groups, human and nonhuman. I am a genre of fiction, above all else.
I take pride in that, and I take pride in my people. As should you.

i went to "mad at me" island expecting to find people i knew, something i understood. but when my boat landed, standing upon the shore were a million empty husks wearing my own face. every foot of the island was occupied, and everywhere i went, they watched me with contempt. they never spoke, never breathed. they simply watched. no matter how i grovelled and begged, snarled and cursed, tried to hide or kicked and hit, they simply stared. the hatred in their gaze was inescapable, but i could hardly return it, knowing that their doomed existence was of my own creation. knowing that the hatred was nobody's but my own. in the end i just wept, unable to stand the relentless gaze of my own infinite glare.
the guy who i accidentally cut off in traffic last week was there also

About the Homestuck Animation… (Clearing Up Misinformation/Criticism)
A lot of people LOVE not doing their research when it comes to the new pilot that was just announced, especially because it has Vivziepop’s involvement; so here’s some FACTS to clear up the rumors.
1. She is NOT a writer or director for Homestuck. She is the executive producer and will have no say on the creative decisions.
2. All creative decisions will be ran through Andrew Hussie. He had final say on the VA’s, he was the one that reached out to SpindleHorse to collab, he is heavily involved in the process and will be a writer because, obviously.
3. It will not be under “SpindleHorse”. They are opening a new animation branch in Australia called SPINDLEROO. So that means even LESS contact with Vivziepop between the creatives if you’re so hung up about it.
4. The people involved who are ACTUALLY writing/directing are all people who have read the entirety of Homestuck, have been long time fans, in the fandom trenches all the way. They aim to bring the authentic Homestuck feel to this animation in a more consumable way.
5. I don’t know why people are confused with Toby Fox’s involvement. He’s practically besties with Andrew and has been involved with Homestuck for A LONG TIME. Longer than any one else. He’s VA’d in other projects as John before and has contributed a lot of music tracks to Homestuck.
6. It’s just a pilot. While they are planning on what looks to be a good chunk of Act 1, we don’t know if this will be it for the long haul. It might continue, it might get dropped. Let’s just wait and see.
The next one is an opinion:
7. “The Hazbin/Helluva fandom is gonna ruin the Homestuck fandom! / Hazbin fans are gonna join now!” - You DO know that Homestuck is one of the original “cringe” fandoms, correct?? Nothing can ruin Homestuck more than what it already is. If you haven’t been exposed to that part of the fandom, you’re just lucky. But with the addition of “purity” culture in fandom space recently, that’ll make it worse. And I guarantee a majority of Hazbin/Helluva fans are already Homestuck fans, including myself who has been part of it for 10+ years. Ask anyone involved and they’ll most likely tell you they were or are a part of the other fandom.
Everyone honestly needs to chill and stop trying to put preemptive blame on people. Let’s just see how it goes.

I like how the homestuck pilot stuff is just giving everyone a rude awakening that a lot of indie creators know each other and respect each others work and that your individual cringe does not exist in a vacuum. And that at the end of the day we’re* all clowns.
*was originally ‘you’re’ until someone in the comments correctly identified me as a clown. 🤡
