(I'm aware that this is the truly greatest image ever. And i'm aware that 4/13 was 8 days ago (as of writing this) but oh well.)

I first read Homestuck on November 19th 2022 out of boredom. My best friend basically asked me "why?" possibly out of pain when i first announced it, but yet again this isn't what this is about. Homestuck is a product of its time with it's certain wording and humor. At first it is confusing and hard to understand as there are things being constantly flung at you (and sometimes never mentioned again) but once you get the grip you start to understand it. My true opinion on Homestuck is prety mixed; sometimes i hate it, sometimes i like it. Overall it was a nice but also somewhat stressing read of mine (for context when i read it for the first time i had this reading gap by which for example i couldn't really properly read the pesterlogs, but i didn't let it stop me and so i struggled on and on like Tavros being abused and tormented by Vriska. Homestuck actually sort of made reading less of an issue for me.). I remember being basically untouched by any of the deaths except for the ones in [S] Wake. (the one with Megalovania), Wayward Vagabond's death in [S] Cascade (he was one of the characters that i pretty quickly started liking) and most if not all of [S] GAME OVER (and Terezi's death before it). Some quick info if any of you want to read it: The VIZ hosted website of it has crappy ports of the [S] pages (i'm talking about the Flash animations to be specific), where they're basically low quality YouTube uploads, and so people recommend The Unofficial Homestuck Collection. And with the "product of it's time" i quite literally mean it; there's a bunch of horrible crap in the webcomic, the most pointable out one being the R-word being said until like somewhere in Act 6 and a part of the trolls being basically stereotypes (SJW, Stereotypical black woman based off of Nicki Minaj, etc), the author's self-insert chasing around a 13 year old kid in the afterlife (and one of the stereotype trolls later dating the kid) but there's also some other stuff. Oh yea, also things that have potential in it immediately get destroyed and/or forgotten, like a few of the trolls. Thankfully they come back later but they're mostly nothingburgers after they come back and mostly appear for only a few pages. For your information, i don't condone the stuff that Hussie has done. He's a piece of shit. Also i will NOT read the epilogues nor Beyond Canon because of the stuff i heard about them.

. If it wasn't for the stuff i mentioned, it would've been a bit higher (no, not the stuff i said about it being long, the "product of it's time" stuff). Sometimes i'm amashed of being a fan of it, but in a weirdly good way.
