Advice from your local worm eater!

i was so ready to be the one to translate the alternian, ive been reading and writing it for like 7 years, I've trained for this day etc etc 😤 only to find out they changed it for hiveswap and my beloved daedric alternian is nowhere to be found!!! kids these days with their newfangled non-copywrite-stricken Modern Alternian, i tell u what

I've been meaning to look into OG Alternian. But if you're interested in learning Hiveswap Alternian, the way I learned it was through the character select cards at the start of each volume in Friendsim. It had the characters' names written in both english and Alternian, and between all of them, I was able to find the symbols for every letter and the question mark. I also found the Alternian exclamation point and period from background posters and stuff.

Azdaja and Chahut's cards helped me the most. I can't look at their cards without remembering how they taught me the ABCs!

Well anyway, I appreciate your enthusiasm! Maybe one day, I'll learn old Alternian and write something that you can translate! But for now, here's a cookie for your effort!

It took me a while to respond because I needed to wait for an opportunity to make some! My little brother wrote the message, in english, for convenience (it says "nice try" if you can't tell. that stuff is pretty hard to write with)!

I'm fucking dying laughing over this tired hungry nonsense omfg. "I'm gonna lie down," they said, already lying down.

while it's certainly not unusual for me to write down my weird-ass intrusive thoughts, I'm not yet used to posting them and them being acknowledged as a thing that happened and I'm going absolutely fucking bananas about the whole situation lmao... they totally sounded like Dad Egbert I swear!

also when I saw the tag "/pos" I thought for a moment that it meant "piece of shit". like not to me or anyone in particular, don't worry, I just assumed that it was a relevant tag for some reason.

I'm feeling a lot better now, for the record...

Phew boi it's been a while hasn't it?

How's my buddy? You doin' okay sugar?

Are you remembering to take care of yourself? Not overworking or stressing out too much?

I'm proud of you, I'm sure you hear this a lot, but I am I mean look at you

You've come so far, worked so hard, and it shows

I hope you know that you're enough, that your worth doesn't boil down to how much work/content you can produce

You're a great person, and I could go on and on with synonyms but I'll keep it simple heh

Also WOW your art is like wow

I'm sorry like I honestly haven't seen it until recently and I don't have words, you can write AND draw? You're all around talented!

I'm really glad we're friends :) -🐝

🥺🥺🥺i’m really glad we’re friends too!! i love you!!!

i’m doing ok actually!

i’m currently on vacation in florida (first time outside of europe😳) so i’m trying not to stress too much about posting currently. i’ll get back on the grind when i get home😎

thank you so much for all the compliments, it really means a lot to me! i could send them all right back at you as well but it would be a long post ahahah

please tell me I'm not the only one who thought it said motherfucker at first

[image description: Daytah Whyfye on discord says: "I'm abusing my powers to say, VOTE ROSEMARY". there's a link to a Twitter poll where you can vote for which ship you like better: Bubbline (adventure time) or Rosemary (homestuck). then there's a tweet from James Roach saying "fuck it, if Rosemary wins I will personally make sure there is new content for you". / end ID]

here is the link to the poll:

go forth and vote!

in this world, it's yeet or be yeeted.

Want to know my favorite little known homestuck fact? Not headcanon. Fact. Heavily textually supported fact.

So we know lowbloods, particularly goldbloods, frequently have “psiionic” powers which seem to mostly consist of telekinesis and the ability to shoot lasers from their eyes. Lowbloods with these powers are frequently forced into service as “Helmsmen” in the Imperial Fleet where they are implied to serve as basically the ship’s engine.

In Hiveswap Act 1, attempting to use Xefros’s powers on I think the autotune mic (but it may have been another electrical object) laughingly dismisses the idea that troll psiionics are electricity or can be used to power things.

In Hiveswap Friendsim Volume 4, Vikare’s story revolves around his obsession with flight and his attempts to invent powered air craft, making it explicitly clear that Alternia never invented aeronautics. They have no flight technology.

Are you beginning to see where I’m going here?

ALTERNIAN SPACE SHIPS AREN’T POWERED.

THEY JUST HAVE TELEKINETIC TROLLS PICK THE SHIPS UP AND THROW THEM.

HELMSMEN ARE LITERALLY PROPELLING THE SHIPS THROUGH SPACE TELEKINETICLY.

I mean, when you think about it, it makes sense! Why bother with rocket fuel and wings when you have a planet full of people who can make shit fly with their minds? But still, it’s hilarious to me that this incredibly technologically advanced civilization doesn’t have engines in their ships and don’t know how they work because when they need to go somewhere they just have THE LOWBLOOD GET OUT AND PUSH.

She puts up with so much bs.

act 3 was announced today and there's already fanart memes! I love this fandom!

Love these new trolls, can’t believe homestuck 3 is real!

Props to the og meme https://twitter.com/PhillipBankss/status/1452416473406840836?s=20&t=wB6Eo8JnH5RF5vM4oxkvPw

when you’re a gay lion and you accidentally tried to introduce your lesbian lioness friend to one of her own exes at a gay bar and she goes into the bathroom and bitches you out for not being able to tell her endlessly rotating cast of girlfriends apart which isn’t really fair because first of all they all keep dyeing their hair different colors and second of all she keeps getting back together with different ones at different times and meanwhile you’ve been “single” for like 8 months but are spending a lot of time with one specific guy who works at your old co-op and were going to excitedly tell her about it tonight but now you’ve ruined the whole subject of dating by trying to introduce her to her own ex at a gay bar (which is a watering hole. because you’re lions.) 

WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING TO ME?!?!?

He's not gonna take all my meds! He probably won't even moisturize properly! This a very fragile vessel my soul resides in, I don't trust him to take care of it! 😡

On the other hand, now I have his powers, I wonder if I could simply... control him while he's me?

Regardless, I'd still look like boomer caillou. Divine powers aren't everything. It's an ew out of ten.

You suddenly switch bodies with your icon. On a scale of 1 to 10, (10 being the highest value) how well are you coping with that change?
