I know Supernatural has the reputation for having “a gif for everything” but if you know where to look, so does Homestuck.

Lets play “how many pages worth of panels can I fit on a 16gb flashdrive”

Lets play “how many pages worth of panels can I fit on a 16gb flashdrive”

Well I just got through Act 1 and not including the flash pages they take up less than 16mb. I mean I still have a solid 8000 pages to get through but I think I’ll be able to fit the whole thing on here. Neat

What I find interesting is that at page 760 (the end of Act 2) Hussie stopped naming the panels as their homestuck page number and started naming them their mspa page number. Fascinating

If you guys are every curious as to why I just refer to Gl'bgolyb as Glubglub, it’s because they’re pronounced the same and Gl'bgolyb is a lot harder to spell.

Do you guys remember when Tab Soda was a huge fucking deal in the fandom?  Those were wild times.

YOU GUYS EVER WONDER EXACTLY HOW BIG THE PLANETS IN HOMESTUCK ARE?

Cause I just spent a bunch of time figuring it out. Follow my logic.

So the Dream Towers on Prospit are the same size as Jade’s house. We know this because of her dreambot

Jade’s house is about half the size of the Volcano

Measure that out and that leaves Propsit at being 5 volcanoes across

Prospit is tiny in comparison to Skaia

Count that out and Skaia is 37 Volcanoes in diameter

Skaia is the same size as the Player Planets therefore each planet is 37 Volcanoes in Diameter

But wait?? How many measurements is a Volcano??? Well to that we look here.

Based on some yacht websites, yachts like that are about 200 feet long so turn that sideways against the volcano and it’s about 240 feet tall

120 times 37 equals 8880 feet or 2707 meters. 

Meaning each planet’s diameter is about 1.68 miles/ 2.7 kilometer

I’m deleting all these davekat asks tomorrow. Never say I didn’t do anything for you folks.
