ok so my friend and I were texting about pesterquest and he had an epiphany and I needed to share it because he may have figured out when the true Homestuck ending comes out
Can I just say I love the detail that, despite the Friendsim trolls, Rose, and Jade all referring to MSPA Reader with they/them pronouns, John and Dave immediately and consistently refer to them as “he/him”
It threw me off at first because I thought the writers had forgotten Reader’s gender ambiguity in PQ episode 1 and I was a little bummed about it, but then Rose used neutral pronouns in episode 2 and a lightbulb clicked on in my head because of COURSE John and Dave would automatically fall into cisheteronormativity. There’s never been anything MORE in-character for them both lmao

The United States is a country that believes that the availability of 27 different types of Oreos is somehow an indication of freedom while people starve to death on the streets and die because they can’t afford a medication whose price is artificially inflated.
The idea that someone can earn (and therefore deserves) millions or billions of dollars is absolutely asinine! The myth of the “self-made millionaire” is an outright lie! And yet both are bedrocks of American culture.
Reminder that Professor Membrane had normal flesh and bone arms when he first made his debut in Invader Zim
That means that in the time span that was between the series and the movie, this grown man attempted to befriend a shark and lost both of his arms as a result
