If UKIP send you one of their flyers you can send it back via freepost at their cost. Every (approx) 5 people who do this will cost UKIP the money to make (approx) 100 flyers, which genuinely makes a difference to a party with limited funds. It’s also worth defacing the flyer before returning it to them so they definitely can’t reuse it! You can also send blank envelopes, or whatever you’d like UKIP to receive ;)

Please reblog! Let’s show these fuckers what we think of their racism, homophobia, misogyny, xenophobia and anything else I’ve left off the list!

I don't understand how grubs becomes trolls. Is there any canon explication? Or just headcanons?

there’s no explanation in canon, but there’s plenty of headcanons!

i reblogged a lovely one i enjoy a while ago: http://homestuckresources.tumblr.com/post/41006610492/teyuss-im-starting-to-draw-and-write-up-all

I just started re-reading Homestuck again and I'm only on act 3 so far but I've noticed that on several of the pages you'll notice a hand, for example in this one 002987, and I THINK if I remember correctly that's John's hand right? From when he was messing around with the err window thing that I forgot the name of. I'm not entirely sure why we keep seeing his hand though in so many of the panels in the past.

yes, this is exactly what it is.

it’s because he was messing with the window (the treasure). it seems to be a kind of gateway to different points in time? so john putting his arm through sent his arm to different points in time too.

in keeping with this, hussie went back and edited the pages to add the arm back in so that the continuity of the story remained. so john sticking his arm through canonically happened in past events. it’s pretty neat!

What do grubs feel like? like... are they furry or smooth or scaly or?

we have no idea, but i would assume they feel like bugs because they are based on bugs. more specifically, maggot-y/grub-y kind of insects; their skin feels kind of hardish and smooth? so trolls probably feel the same way

In homestuck, it's stated that matesprits are very similar to human love. I've heard several people argue that human love should be more than just a matesprit; that it should also include elements of morailigence. What are yall's thoughts on this?

well, i can’t speak on behalf of everyone but my own partner is my support network. the old cliche ‘no one else understands me’. i personally think it would be unhealthy if you completely removed your relationship from having moirail-like qualities?

that said, i don’t think a human relationship can be 100% like having a moirail because it’s impossible? moirails are a 'platonic’ relationship where having romantic feelings ruins the relationship as you don’t have the other person’s best interests in mind – re: kanaya and vriska.

for trolls, all 4 quadrants should be separate and they all have specific functions and don’t overlap at all.

i think by human love, hussie might have meant the generalized 'affection that human couples show’. so kissing and having sex and holding hands ect. ect. (however, there is far more diversity to human relationships than this and every one is different. i’m emphasising generalized here.)

so to bring this all together into an answer

  1. when homestuck said the matesprits are similar to human love, i think the best interpretation is the physical and romantic aspect of human’s 'cereal packet mother and father’ relationships because
  2. all 4 quadrants should be separate and they all have specific functions and don’t overlap at all.
  3. therefore trolls definition of matespritship shouldn’t overlap with moirails as they are separate relationships
  4. however, in real life i don’t think it’s this simple–therefore i agree that human relationships are like moirails outside the context of homestuck
  5. but in homestuck’s context we have to acknowledge that these are alien relationships that have been explained to us as being clearly different. therefore a matesprit in homestuck is not going to be your moirail or share moirail aspects. applying human logic to 'alien’ relationships is ruining the fact they are alien by trying to make them fit into human culture and rationale

hopefully you get what i’m saying here, i’m not sure how clear i made myself through my rambling ahaha!

Hi! Is it possible to have a kismessitude without the pailing/romance? Like a rivalry, very potent, but like, with out the sex...?? I checked the masterlist and it said that it would just be hate, but what if it's not?
What happens to a troll without a lusus? I'm sure they can live without them, but are they treated any differently/are they less protected/etc?

terezi technically never had a lusus, as she grew up without any contact with it until she was blinded. we know that terezi then lived alone in a forest, presumably away from other civilisation.  

so they can live fine! terezi is perfectly capable of fighting and no-one seems to treat her any differently.

i would argue that this might be down to resilience: terezi seems to be able to cope with almost anything that is thrown at her. a troll who breaks under the smallest thing may not do so well :(

Ok so I see a lot of people bring up the Terezi inferiority talk with karkat about how awesome Latula is but I always thought that was just something Terezi came up with on the spot to stop to keep Karkat from finding out about her eyes. Yet so many people take it as completely serious and I was wondering if you could show me the points that make it in character and sincere and not just a cover up. ( Did this come off as rude or indignant? I hope not)

nah, terezi was being honest. terezi didn’t lie about anything to do with her eyes–she just avoided situations until she was ‘ready’ to come clean about it. if you want more evidence of why she was telling the truth, then uhh.. i guess terezi’s personality just explains it?

terezi had already spoken about how she thought she was a terrible person, talking about how she didn’t do a good enough job and how she couldn’t overcome vriska’s death. she was also being abused by gamzee. therefore, terezi was completely depressed at that point.

we also know she hero-worshipped redglare and pretended to be like her in almost every aspect of her life. latula is an alternate version of redglare. 

therefore, there’s no reason to doubt that she was feeling inferior to the alternate version of a woman she’d loved all her life, while she was already feeling like a shitty person.

i am a little confused. if gamzee isnt god tier, how did he survive caliborns shots?

we don’t know for sure.

there’s theories about the snakes, but the mods are half/half about whether this could stand up as the actual reason.

my own suggestion is the joker immunity trope.

I'm sure you aren't a fan of questions like this, but I am trying to find a post of those "questioning quadrant" shipping pixels with the question marks all over the place; I'm sure I've seen them on this blog, but I can't find them in the resource tag nor on the masterlist. Could you please find them? Thank you so much, I realize how tedious things like this are :,)

no sorry, i actually haven’t see those before :o

but maybe a follower might have!
