@baka-monarch​ DO YOU LOOK SO GOOD?! EVEN WITH THE MASK I’M SCREAMING!? STUFF LIKE THIS IS WHY I SHOULD SPEND MORE TIME ON TUMBLR! 

"can I offer you some drugs manufactured from my very own van?"

“The heck!?” along with assorted midnight thoughts.

I have 2 whole followers now? A day after creating my account? I expected the first one, as they are a person I know IRL, but uh, hi to the other person who apparently enjoyed my first post!

In other news, Physics class sucks! I just spent approximately 8 hours doing only 20 math problems. Why must I suffer.

At least I can be cheered up by the fact that several ao3 fics I enjoy updated today! I was especially pleased that a homestuck story, called “the run and go” by deserts updated, after nearly a year of radio silence. Also, “There’s still magic” by RosesCry, which is a fairly good undertale one.

I really freaking love undertale and homestuck. I, unfortunately arrived really late to both fandoms. I found undertale in 2016 or 2017, but only played the game in late 2019. I found homestuck in around the same time. 

Can I say, if you don’t focus on the weird toxic parts that every fandom seems to have (exept the sanders sides fanbase, they’re wholesome), the undertale and HS comunnities are actually super unique and inspiring! 

Undertale fans loved the game so much that they remade the story again and again, coming up with unique alternate universes that became so popular within the fanbase that the nicknames given to au characters are easily recognizable. 

Homestuck is cool just for how widespread and simultaneously mainstream yet niche it is. By that I mean, I have seen people joke about how there are no homestucks in their town (myself included), yet when I wore my black hoodie with a teal libra symbol embroidered on it, a teenaged looking girl actually came up and asked if it was a reference!  Heck, my love of HS is actually part of what inspired my username. To be exact, I modelled it after pesterchum handles. 

As for why it’s “fandomfriend” in particular, I just, really love talking about the sheer power of how a book, movie, show, comic, or game can bring strangers together. I adore meta commentary, and I’m pretty sure I would squeal with joy if someone wanted to discuss fanfiction tropes (I have even made a podcast episode on fandom psychology for a school project). It doesn’t particularly matter which fandom, as I think they are all pretty great, hence the nonspecific name and pfp, see?

I should probably cut it there, both for the sake of my sleeping schedule, and for whatever poor sap tries to read my sleep deprived rambling. XD

EXACTLY!

And I have no answers! Jk, in short, there was a massive hiatus that ended on oct 25, 2011. Andrew hussie acted like the one page update he posted was the comics conclusion or something. That, plus the sheer length of the hiatus, caused so many fans to be on the homestuck page at one time that the site broke. It was a massive deal as everyone was so excited for the gigapause to be over, but no one could even see the update because the site crashed. This comic is meant to emulate the sheer chaos of it all.

For everyone who wasn't Homestuck on 10/25/11,

Here’s a wonderful and accurate representation of that night.
