Is Gamzee still the hottest fucking troll?
Well, he’s in a fridge so…
Wgere can I find a list of every upate since the beggining, with the date it was published and the number of pages it had? Is there even such a list?
That is a feature on the site, check Homestuck’s Adventure Log
when one of the mods said "robo-jacks eyes suddenly being real was a cop out" i feel like that was just robo jack pretending to have a robo eye, at least, thats what i got from it.
A real “pretend” robo eye that can zoom in on things
just to make sure..which Dad is in prison? jane's or john's?
Jane’s.
in your opinion, who is the most unappreciated hs girl?
Jane, she just gets shat on so much in story and in the fandom. The kid deserves a break.
I know Gamzee is considered to be an antagonist but who else in a player sense is an antagonist?
Eridan is an antagonist, and before you start arguing with me on this: It’s Hussie confirmed.
And Vriska is an edgy anti-hero, at least in my opinion
Has it been clarified where the second nannasprite Jane was talking to came from?
She came from the pre-retcon timeline
Even though Gamzee is considered an antagonist, will he ever get a happy ending do you think?
I doubt it, he doesn’t deserve one. Gamzee is a bad person and no number of Gamzee apologists is going to change my mind.
But it's obvious that at this point that Gamzee is being mind-controlled. Pre-Breakdown Gamzee was the nicest guy.
Pre-breakdown Gamzee was baked out of his mind
by hb in the link u did like 3 or 2 asks ago, did he means hearts boxcar ??
Yes
What the hell is retcon honestly I'm so confused
The changing of a previously stated fact.
Honestly that one would have been faster to google yourself.
Who do you think is worse, Gamzee or Eridan?
Gamzee. Eridan may be a super douche, but Gamzee, aside form literally being a piece of Lord English, has instigated so much shit and is so much worse of a person.
May I just direct your Gamzee hating thinkpan to this post right here --> lewiscarrolatemybrain(.)tumblr(.)com/post/140949874669/yanno-what-actually-i-think-this-needs-a-separate
Okay, but, but, none of those other characters that were being compared to Gamzee murdered multiple people or purposefully instigated an abusive relationship (except Jane, debatably)
It's 2016 and people are still defending Gamzee??
I know right
He (Gamzee) wasn't him when he murdered those characters though
Yes. He. Was. He is a Purple Blood, one of, if not the most violent blood castes. He was free from his suppressive drugs and he had a renewed faith in his religion. He was more himself than he had ever been before.
u could at least try to be unbiased when running a huge homestuck blog yknow
I’m sorry, but I don’t care if he’s mentally ill or coded as whatever oppressed minority. There is no excuse for murder and abuse.
A majority of the Homestuck fans are teenagers and I have to be a role model.
I will not for one second let people think that it’s okay to use their mental illness as an excuse to do bad things.
Think Eridan will ever get a redemption? Or is he to far gone in the douche camp?
He got his redemption, kinda, in the form of Erisolsprite. He apologized to Fef. That could be considered redemption
Stop being so negative?? Hating on a character you dislike has nothing to do with hs facts
I enjoy Gamzee, I think he’s a great character, but he is a bad person. This has nothing to do with me disliking him.
tbh i dont know why people even have arguments over liking/disliking a character, people can hate who they hate and love who they love does it actually m a t t e r
That’s not what this argument is about tho. It’s about whether Gamzee is a good or bad person, not about whether I like him or not.
ur alienating and demonizing a huge portion of the fandom jsyk have fun being a gross person
To quote the great Dirk Strider:
It seems you think I am a fucking douche.That’s your opinion, I guess. That’s cool.
What's you're zodiac sign?
I’m a Libra
Other Anons : Guys, this person was asked an opinion on Gamzee, and answered honestly. Then 1st anon was being rude af by saying "gamzee hating thinkpan" (admin said nothing about hating him!) because they answered the opinionated question honestly. So don't complain about "biased" when it was an opinionated question anyways! Don't complain it has nothing to do with hs asks when admin was just answering an ask! This person was not "hating" at all, they stated an opinion and backed it up w facts!
First of all, I just want to say thanks for the hard work you guys do! Secondly, I'm just curious if you, as people who have put a great deal of time into knowing Homestuck, would recommend it to someone who knows nothing about it? Would you say it'd be better or worse to get into now that its past the insane height of popularity it once reached?
There are ups and downs to getting into it now.
You’ll miss the sense of community. The fandom used to be so much more tight knit and fun.
But you also won’t have to deal with the hordes of fans at every convention and all the bucket phase kids.
But yes, I’d recommend it. I’d always recommend it, Homestuck is one of the best pieces of fiction I’ve ever come across.
Thank you for still fighting the good fight against the Gamzee apologists, so many of us have just gotten so tired of having to re-explain the same points over and over again.
Well, I have this discussion once or twice a year so I’m pretty used to it
i WARNED you about the gamzee apologists bro!!!! i told you dog !
I know bro, i just didn’t think it was 2013 anymore
you deserve so much better tbh.
I was actually 100% expecting this when I answered whatever ask it was that started it. But I choose to do it anyway. One last Gamzee discussion before the comic ends.
I am also a libra who loves Gamzee as a character but has thought at times that he is indeed, the Worst Person. Now, I've heard the arguments, and I get what people mean when they say he's black/poor/neurodivergent coded, and I've actually had long conversations with ppl about this. My take is - The lack of attention and dialogue from him recently helps Goddamn None. Cal has obviously affected him, but we all agree Bro is at fault in a similar situation; Cal just exaggerated his worst traits.
See folks, now this is a good argument, take notes from xem.
Is there anyway you can tag these agruments, right or wrong they're kind of clogging my dash at the moment..
Just blacklist the fhsf asks tag for the night, this shouldn’t last too much longer
do you think eridan will even /smile/
No, he is too much of a sad seahorse
okay im super sorry but im having a disagreement with someone and they want me to get a second opinion "for credibility" so: the assertion is "eridan's murders were not premeditated" agree or disagree
Disagreement. He went in there to bring Fef with him to keep her safe. He didn’t plan on killing her.
Wait, Jane instigated an abusive relationship? ...With who, Jake?
Yeah, when she was Heiress Jane she beat him down pretty bad, both physically and emotionally. But there was’t really much of a relationship there which is why it’s debatable.
Thoughts on Problem Sleuth?
Ashamed to admit I haven’t read it. Much in the style of how I read Homestuck, I tried once but didn’t make it too far until I lost interest. Maybe I’ll try again when Homestuck’s over.
Who is you're least favorite character(s)?
I don’t have any, I love all Homestuck characters
So I understand Eridan but why didnt Vriska bring Feferi back to life? I mean she watch a life player and even if she wasnt god tier she could have come in handy. Especially since when we first met her she said it was her destiny to fight )(IC and I thought that would become an important plot point
Vriska didn’t kill Feferi so she didn’t feel the need to correct it.
It’s all apart of the Vriska Circuit
would you say that gamzee is coded as being black because i just went to that gamzee apologize link one of the earlier askers submitted and their argument is pretty much that gamzee is getting the short end of the stick compared to 'white coded characters'.
Tbh I just read him as a troll, I didn’t pick up on racial coding on any of the characters. And I’d love to hear reasons Gamzee is black coded that aren’t just racist stereotypes
you love all the characters? even Cronus?
Yes, even Cronus
Wait, have you not read Homestuck? Your last answer made it seem that way.
Yep, I haven’t read Homestuck. I just kinda guess on all the indepth plot mechanics I talk about on this blog, you got me
What happened to Erisolspirit. is he just wondering the Void or is he dead
He was either left in the pre-retcon timeline or he came over to the post-retcon timeline. It’s looking like the prior at this point
From what I remember, Jane did force a slave-like abusive relationship on Jake, and was planning on forcing him to father her children to continue the Crocker Empire. However, she was under complete control of the Crocker Tiara, making her not Jane at all, so she can't really be held accountable for that.
Jane could be held accountable, but most likely won’t be because she feels remorse for what she did and will (or already has?) apologized for it.
What's that anon got against Cronos?
Dudes kinda creepy
oh no how dare demonized mentally ill and/or poc see themselves in and defend a character that is blatantly coded to be like them.. Those darn gamzee apologists, who are often abuse survivors as well :.( it's not like a white neurotypical creator would EVER use a character like that as a scapegoat !!!! As well as portray a mentally ill character as a Big Bad Abuser, because THATS never never been done in idk 99.9999% of media ever!!! How dare u wanna defend the seldom representation there is :.(
See, Caliborn is mentally ill too but no one ever tries to say it’s okay that he kills all those peeps because of his illness.
This debate is only apparent with Gamzee.
I think people call Gamzee "black coded" because of the his rapping and use of some AAVE, but that's supposed to code him as a Juggalo, and Juggalos are overwhelmingly white. I guess Juggalos aren't as prominent on the internet now as they were 5 years ago, so newer/younger fans aren't getting the reference anymore.
these asks are getting too negative. which homestuck character deserves a hug the most?
Damn, all of them probably, they are all just tiny children
is there anyway to read a character as "coded" for something without it being a racial stereotype? i legit don't understand that conceptually. thats pretty off topic though so here's a homestuck question: do you think we'll ever get a more definitive understanding of active/passive pairs and other classpect stuff? even if it's not directly in comic or something i'd still like to know
Probably not, that’ll be left up to reader interpretation like so many other things.
Question Anon: Well aren't most of the trolls creepy? Like honestly, their terrifying and awful? Cronos is just a loser.
He’s a creepy loser tho, like his full name should be:
Cronus “haha and then what ;)” Ampora
So wait wait wait... Where is Gamzee during this entire final fight? Is he in the fridge or someplace else or....
Yeah, he’s in the fridge. Although I’m not exactly sure where the fridge is atm, I assume some captchalogued it, probably Jake or Vriska
Also, if Gamzee is bad (and I'm not saying he isn't; he's, after all, a religious zealot doing nasty shit with only that as the reason), then how come you label Vriska an "anti-hero"...? smh at you
Because she’s not actively working against the protagonist.
She’s a horrible person too don’t get me wrong, but she’s a horrible person that’s helping the protagonists.
What is all this "coded" stuff? And what is exactly the point of it?
“coded” is basically a character written with the traits of a certain group or illness. The point, I’m not quite sure. To say something without saying it I suppose
Wait, why was Jade not supposed to fight in the battle? Was it because of her being to powerful, or something else?
Because of the risk that Condy would control her again
That last anon made me curious about captchaloging characters so.. Has a character ever been captchalogued in the past? Or has it ever been questioned?
John captchalogued Casey
and Roxy captchalogued Rose’s corpse
