for those of you asking what happened:

1. sarah Z drops a two hour long homestuck video, wherein she cites gio’s articles about hiveswap’s development

2. aysha @’s sarah z on twitter to inquire as to why she wasn’t contacted in the making of this video. gio replies with a mildly snippy tweet referencing the fact that whatpumpkin never responded to any of his attempts for contact in writing his own article

3. barely relevant but its literally always funny to me how people who are deep up the homestuck team’s ass think the fact that they are queer means that they are exempt from any criticism. girl. 

4. in a private patreon discord server aysha calls gio a stalker and says ‘go get this bitch’ and links to gio’s twitter. i feel like for reference here it’s really important to note that gio has like, around 500 twitter followers and is not exactly a massive presence.

5. meanwhile on mastodon it seems like kate is also engaging in some really good and functional adult behavior as well

anyway i’ve read gio’s entire hiveswap article and it’s incredibly well researched and well cited, and if it’s “stalker shit” to out unprofessionalism that borders on fraudulent business practices. then. well ! i can see why theyre worried.
