audghghhh The Horrors

y’all mind if a white boy let an evil entity into his body tonight

“what does this entail?” do not even worry about it brother.

im always getting anons from myself at various points in history and no matter how many of them i block the timeline remains stable. probably because things are just really crazy right now

you’ll never believe what I am choosing to start reading now, for the first time ever, in the year of 2K25

I actually started playing Earthbound sometime last year and so far it’s been a very similar experience, in that I’ve made fun of people comparing every single RPG ever made to Earthbound for almost ten years, but then actually playing it was just a constant stream of “oh my god, I’ve played SO MANY GAMES in my life that are all just directly lifting THIS EXACT BIT”

been trying to work out whether the time travel bullshit elements of Homestuck are Closed Loop (events are recursive, you can’t “change” the future because everything that would affect the past or future has already happened) or Open Loop (events branch into timelines, and actions taken can create entirely new timelines over old ones) and every page I read is introducing the slowly more horrifying idea that it might somehow be both of them at once

this series presents an incredibly intriguing form of the “how does christmas as a holiday exist in fictional works where Jesus Christ obviously wouldn’t exist” thought experiment by portraying a world in which all of the practices and paraphernalia of Juggalos exist but the Insane Clown Posse just doesn’t

the very first piece of info about Vriska we learn being that she has like twelve different character sheets and endless pages of campaign ideas for different TTRPGs that no one she knows wants to run with her is a stroke of genius; it’s a look into her psyche that explains literally everything else she does from that point on

why did not one of you motherfuckers tell me that Megalovania was originally written in the Mega Man X soundfont. every song on planet earth should be written in the Mega Man X soundfont

something I really appreciate about the trolls is how deeply rooted they each are in being different archetypes of Forum People, like I know for a fact the author KNEW and HATED some of these motherfuckers in real life. no other comic is out here asking questions like “what if that one furry RP blogger who absolutely positively will not stop posting in character no matter the context AND that racist weirdo who gets into thread-clogging arguments all the time because he types every argument like a Final Fantasy villain were bestieeeeeeeees <3”
