Cosmic Grove

as said partner can confirm i am having a great time :3 although i did restart after being a massive dumbass, like 13 hours in accidentally killing looks to the moon and feeling so so bad (barely made any progress since) but this game has already latched onto me so hard, i adore the environments, the creatures and how i need to learn their behaviors, even though i suck and keep just falling off platforms to my death its an awesome time

started rain world recently and we are constantly like wow why did we not start this game sooner, it has latched onto us so hard and will not let go, we have made next to no progress in the game but it is constantly in our thoughts

the reason for so little progress might be that we killed looks to the moon without thinking around 13 hours into a save and felt so bad we restarted >-<

AND the reason for that save being so long is that we stumbled into the filtration system and explored most of that! without any light and then had to crawl our way out

crazy how i find myself thinking i've got a handle on it all finally and then i see the ways that other people tangle their lives together so easily and live so easily together with their friends and i feel like that girl at the top of the stairs painting by norman rockwell

i think jade is intentionally written as transmisogynized in the epilogues and this characterization is so apparent that it got incorporated into the backlash to her portrayal

jades characterization as hypersexual in response to isolation, her feeling like theres something setting her apart from her friends despite interacting with them often and her desire to have a child despite pregnancy being a biological impossibility are all so clearly intended as coding of her as a trans woman to me that i cant see her as anything else. but so much of the backlash to jades character was just, 'it was gross of the writers to make it so jade has a penis' or 'why is jade such a needy slut all the time.' the argument id give the most benefit of the doubt to is 'jade resembles a transphobic futa stereotype' but i feel like just reading the text of the epilogues youd see theres so much more nuance to her character than that

honestly i feel like the fact that the epilogues were recieved the way they were is informed by the fact that they were released around the time the fandom was largely controlled by a bunch of vocal shitheads. both the largest subreddit and discord servers were owned by a bigoted dickhead who was encouraging racism and death threats. also the uhsc, the offline alternative to homestuck that restored the flash components, was controlled in part by gio, the same guy who got sarah z to rumor-mill his harrassment campaign against hussie at around the same time. if you go back and read the epilogues, theyre really good, really interesting and well-written explorations of homestuck's characters and the consequences the narrative had on them, but because sentiment against hussie was so bad at the time due in large part to the misinformation being spread about them due to like, four specific shitheads, i feel like everyone just took it in bad faith, and to this day i feel like i see the same takes over and over about how terrible postcanon is by people who havent been keeping up and still think hussie is an Evil Bad Person who wrote a Bad Story.

to this day i still see people acting like all the trans stuff was crowbarred in with no thought put into it because hussie wanted to Look Woke, by people whose primary source is the sarah z video (which is full of misinformation she has never corrected nor apologized for spreading,) and who arent even aware that hussie is transfem because they havent updated their opinion of them since 2020. there was a post on here a couple months ago that claimed that hussie switching to any pronouns was purely a PR stunt and compared this to scott cawthon donating thousands of dollars to the trump campaign. ive seen people i trust to understand homestuck get uncharacteristically upset by that one pic a few months back of jade, callie and kanaya standing in front of a trans flag captioned "CANONICALLY TRANS" that hussie drew, i assume purely because theyre wired to take her actions in bad faith. it sucks.

*in the middle of sex* hold on homestuck update

Sometimes you will be a lesbian to your parents and a straight man to your partners parents and a gay man to your partner and a woman to your grandparents and out to your friends and stealth to your classmates and a nice young lady to the cashier at the coffee shop and then people on your computer will ask you to choose which of these identities you ACTUALLY are and which you are Appropriating The Oppression Of because don’t you know they contract each other. You can only be one thing solidly forever
