some of my fonder memories from the glory days of the homestuck fandom:
ke$hastuck and fandomstuck and guidestuck
endless crystalmethequins covers/remixes
octopimp videos
people having update cosplays completed within literal hours
“homestuck is my favorite anime”
pretending squiddles was a real show
scouring the nearest convenience stores for faygo
quietly slipping ww’s and vv’s into your texts or using eight of a letter/punctuation mark consecutively just in case
dante basco meeting up with homestucks wherever he went
fandom-wide debates over how long someone’s sleeves were
update art on goggles
the internet imploding every 4/13
“eridan is a metaphor for the obama administration”
when you went to a con in homestuck cosplay and anyone else in homestuck cosplay was instantly your friend and you could hang out for the rest of the day and go to the photoshoot together
really just seeing people with homestuck shirts on anywhere and being instantly friends, that fandom may have been a mess but hell if it wasn’t the best fun any of us ever had
