dicaeopolis:

some of my fonder memories from the glory days of the homestuck fandom:

• ke$hastuck and fandomstuck and guidestuck
• endless crystalmethequins covers/remixes
• octopimp videos
• people having update cosplays completed within literal hours
• “homestuck is my favorite anime”
  
• pretending squiddles was a real show
• scouring the nearest convenience stores for faygo
  
• quietly slipping ww’s and vv’s into your texts or using eight of a letter/punctuation mark consecutively just in case
• dante basco meeting up with homestucks wherever he went
• fandom-wide debates over how long someone’s sleeves were
• update art on goggles
  
• the internet imploding every 4/13
• “eridan is a metaphor for the obama administration”
  
• when you went to a con in homestuck cosplay and anyone else in homestuck cosplay was instantly your friend and you could hang out for the rest of the day and go to the photoshoot together
  
• really just seeing people with homestuck shirts on anywhere and being instantly friends, that fandom may have been a mess but hell if it wasn’t the best fun any of us ever had
