I would like to apologize for and recant any good faith I offered to the Homestuck epilogue.
If you have not read it, I am begging you. Please talk to someone who has and get a lowdown. It’s upsetting. It’s vicious. It does fun monkey’s paw bullshit like “your fave is trans! oh but your other fave is now a transphobe!” It’s more intensely reader aggressive than anything we’ve ever seen in Homestuck before.
I am left with just two questions: Who is this for? What is the point?
Because from where I am sitting, looking at my entire friendgroup who is upset and personally hurt and several who resorted to crying or to fucking drinking away this bullshit,
the only conclusion that currently makes sense to me is a purposeful attempt to nuke the fandom and make everyone turn on Homestuck.
I have a saying I repeat a lot. “All stories are for someone, but not every story is for everyone.” I don’t know who this story is for, but I know that it’s not for us. And there is a deep abiding sadness to having something that was important to you, maybe even helped shape who you are, and see that thing turn on you with claws.
But in my opinion, the epilogue is not for us. Do not hurt yourselves, do not force yourselves to read it out of some sense of obligation to an old love.
This is not that thing anymore.
Take care of yourselves.
