I am writing this on February 20th, 2013. I do not
know when, or if, I will ever post it. But since you’re reading it now, it can
only mean one thing: the MSPA Prophet is dead, and it is now safe for me to
tell the world how I knew when updates were coming.
A friendly reminder that some poor probably under paid people at VIZ had to deal with this kind of hilariously sloppy web management/coding during the switch from MSPA to the official homestuck website.
Can you imagine Hussie,a man with adegree in computer science, trying to explain to you all the pages of homestuck exist on a secret forum under the reign of a million porn bots? I wish i had been in the room honestly to see the 7 stages of grief flash through VIZ’s corporate eyes simuntaneously.
but this raises the question of what jesus’ god tier would be
bible side of tumblr pls help
*cracks knuckles*
well being the literal Son of God he’d have to have a master class. so lord vs muse. he fits muse much better, considering he’s the inspiration for a whole religion.
as for aspect? well that’s pretty easy, it’s life. raising lazarus from the dead, curing people’s illnesses, that all screams life.
so jesus is a muse of life.
happy easter!
well damn if that didnt just get solved. nice work
i like this headcanon except he’s literally called the Prince of Life in the Bible
Acts 3:15 from the King James Bible “And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.” Jesus’ canon god tier is Prince of Life
i also like this just based on the fact that it means Jesus would have to wear those dumb pantaloon shorts
Yeah, I feel u, op. I don’t know if there is anything I can say to make this better – a lot of us are feeling this deep existential dread atm – but at the very least I can say that if some company rolls in and fucks everything up there’s going to be a nonzero number of us sitting here in this blue hell happily denying any of that shit is going on while continuing to write and draw and otherwise create content based on the story we actually fell in love with
and in that case we’re no worse off than we were before in regards to homestuck, at least
^ This. The production end has been through so many massive changes between 2012 (when I got in) and today but even if they took the whole thing down we’d have backups; even if they stopped making things entirely we could continue.
Think about Star Trek fandom in the hiatus between the original series and the first film. The era of dodgy tie-in novels and very little official anything was the era in which fandom flourished.
Haha, or like the Star Wars prequels. You skim out the new bits you like for use and keep using the other bits you loved and the net result is a wider world of possibility even if it also means “kind of boring new movies with strange CG lizard man.” Hell, I bet there’s some good Jar Jar Binks meta out there.
I can get to feeling possessive/protective of the “official” canon, but honestly an excess of creation is more protective than stasis. It’s fandom and fan media on a larger scale, and you still get to pick the bits you love to make your home in. 🙂
Dirk: *nervously spouts off ten thousand words about the simulation problem, the inability of the human mind to truly experience anything objectively and the classical philosophical debate of what truly constitutes reality and free will, fully aware that dave has completely tuned him out, yet unable to stop because he recognizes he looks like an idiot and is determined that his next sentence will fix it even though he knows it absolutely will not*
Dave: cool but I actually subscribe exclusively to the philosophical school of updog, it’s pretty intense
Dirk: *has extensively researched historical memes and knows exactly what updog is, and is now faced with a completely unsolveable dilemma, does he walk right into the obvious set up and ask, innocently, what’s updog, and allow dave to cheerfully slam dunk him into a garbage can? if so can he pull it off casually enough that dave will think he didnt know exactly what he was doing? or will Dave see through it and be insulted by what he perceives as patronizing behavior? should he explain that actually he knows what updog is and just put all his cards on the table for the sake of honesty? Fuck no that’s totally awful that is so goddamn uncool. Do we divert the conversation onto something else? Pretend he didn’t hear him? FUCK*
