I reached Jade, and in doing so I'm reminded of a few things to this point: Jade is a national treasure. all the kids are tbh. But Jade is a national treasure rn bc I'm at her part. and Nanasprite takes no shit
also, entertaining thing just happened: > start a new homestuck rp with a friend about dragons > while discussing dragons, make a joke about Grandpappy Dragon Being Stronk And Huge aside from being a douchebag > google image search Shenlong to find the size/shape I'm talking about while we shoot the shit bc I didn't feel like drawing right then and was curious > http://vampireprincess007.deviantart.com/art/Shenlong-the-rainbringer-198201396 comes up > forget for a few days > begin re-reading homestuck, see Jade's furaffinity window open with a username, get curious, get redirected to DA in comments section > same fucking artist did the dragon I'd google image searched tldr: do a random homestuck rp about dragons, found a random dragon on google image search as a loose reference idea, realize days later an artist who got account namedropped in fucking homestuck drew the fucking dragon. because of fucking course they did.
(my completionist shit still lay in finishing all the fancytiers, I've been stuck on alpha trolls for a while still, but time will tell. i'm a stubborn douche for finishin' things.)
i did passivwe aggressivwe cronus valentines for all your passivwe aggressivwe cronus valentine needs heres the rest
there was drama brewing because apparently the overseer project received a C&D from what pumpkin, but now cohen is saying they didn't send one so i have no idea what's going on
Tbh im surprised i didnt see any Discourse for the wlf shipping sale having johnrose and dirkdave shirts
there was DEFINITELY discourse over the johnrose shirts, and the dirkdave shirts were from an artist that submitted them for the BIRTHDAY CHALLENGE (not the shipping challenge) and was very upset to hear that they showed up in the shipping challenge results
Yeah i kind of assumed someone not familiar w homestuck looked at that big heart behind dirk and was like AH YES SHIPPING like... yknow someone who doesnt.know homestuck I am going 2 fight the johnrose artist tho jeeze
i dont really see the point in heckling someone who ships two fictional characters differently, especially in Homestuck of all things, but then again :shrug: that's just me. i more just feel bad that they got so much bullshit for their work, really. my friends tried to send them good comments when they realized how much shit they were getting. from what i heard it got pretty nasty. :c
I dont... Hmm. Im not comfortable w someone taking an explicitly gay character whos married to another woman, drawing her shipped w a dude, and then submitting that art to be officially produced by people who cant even tell when theyre putting incest in their shipping contest Without the last step i wouldnt be too bothered but th Making It A Shirt part makes me real peeved
i'm gonna have to do an agree to disagree thing because we're approaching the thought from really different angles, but i understand why you're upset. and yeah. wlf is... cool in some ways and really awful in others. :deep sigh: they run their stuff really fuckin' weird and then half the things i hear is screaming wank directed at specific artists or designs, it's nuts. there's some designs i'd love to buy someday but holy heck. The Wankening around this company.
