We Make Each Other Happy :(..

Brb telling my kids this was Zendaya and Tom Holland

whenever you genderbend a character, don't be a wimp. keep the hair length. don't over sexualize

People don't like to admit it bcs cringe or w/e but Homestuck really did revolutionize the webcomic as a storytelling medium and I am endlessly frustrated that before webcomic artists could really stretch our legs fucking webtoonz swooped in, set a new, more restrictive standard, and then monetized and monopolized the ever living fuck out of the concept of The Webcomic until it drove away anyone who couldn't be a professional quality manga artist for free, and now the only webcomics that actually feel like spiritual successors to Homestuck are so obscure they're basically cult classics that you have to beg people to read.

Like it's just so wild to be in high school and see Homestuck be like "we're using like fifteen different artistic mediums to tell this story bcs we can" and be really fucking inspired by that, only to grow up and see basically every webcomic ever have to conform to One Single Standard or fucking perish.

instead of making a bunch of shitty american live action death note adaptations i think they should take the basic concept and export it into totally different cultures and/or time periods. i want to see what would happen if the death note fell into the hands of an evangelical youth pastor in rural ohio. or the old matriarch of an african royal family. or a struggling painter's apprentice in renaissance italy. or a lobster fisherman. or a famous russian novelist from the early 1900s. or a cowboy or a secretary or a monk or a farmer like why does it always have to be Light Yagami the Teenage Prodigy huh? when does someone else get a turn

the mime from Carmen Sandiego is kinda.... now hear me out
