@ConstelationRbs@homestuck_anon "You have to be a darkshipper to be a homestuck fan" are we not allowed to disagree with our favorite media sometimes??
@ffirewind am i the only white person that wasn't born with the uncontrollable urge to use / justify usage of the n word. its like asking why you can have sex in private but not public
@Cloverbugged when people slaughter dave for saying weird stuff about roxy as if he didn't always have distorted views on family. people when the disturbed child is disturbed
Almost the entire Homestuck cast is made up of imperfect victims, and I think it's beautiful. Not just for the representation and the exploration of how cycles of abuse can propagate, but also for how thorough of a test it is for the reader to interpret and discuss this.
She was 19.
She had her whole life ahead of her and a transphobic man stabbed her 40 times.
The media demonises and dehumanises us. They call us parasites and dangerous, to make us acceptable targets.
But we need to live and remember the victims.
RIP Juniper.
@lalondefact Many such cases where female homestuck characters are not given the same grace of being viewed as children that male characters have. Which affects how people see their actions
"Cronus is an interesting character" "Cronus is well written" You can like him without saying some bullshit about him being really deep and secretly interesting it's genuinely okay to just think he's funny it doesn't reflect your morals to think the douchebag loser is funny.
i think what so many people miss and don’t acknowledge nearly enough in their vriska analyses and criticisms alike is that she is very much also physically disabled and she isn’t just ableist towards tavros for shits and giggles
vriska’s treatment of tavros is ultimately rooted in self loathing. to her tavros represents the aspects of her she loathes the most and by trying to change tavros she is trying to suppress these parts of herself harder
