This place hasn’t had any posts in forever so here I am with my own story to share!
Right before I started reading Homestuck I had only been talking to my friend again for a few months, every once in awhile we would just drift apart even though we always ended up talking again. It was Homestuck we bonded over. I started reading it and I loved it, it’s made me into a better person.
I came from a really restricted home life, I was fed a bunch of lies about social things (though I never thought I was better than anyone, I wonder how that happened since my family is so racist) I never considered I had been mislead on what things like ‘transgender’ meant so I didn’t bother googling it to see if it was true, and then I joined the fandom and I started to see what I was wrong about, in truth I’m ashamed, so ashamed! Okay, I….there was this boy I follow who was born with female sex parts and I didn’t get it, I would never ever ever call him the wrong pronoun even then which is possibly the only consolation I have that I wasn’t that bad. I just didn’t understand so I researched it and I even cried when I found out how bad I had been and I didn’t even realize it. Cried really hard.
It’s opened me up to so many things I have come to accept every sexuality, and pretty much anything that people identify as, and I’m proud of myself for that.
I’ve became friends with so many people and I even fell in love for the first time (I’m 18 I’ve never really had a crush either) and it was on the same gender. I’ve had small crushes before and mostly on the same gender but I couldn’t accept it.
I’m literally so grateful to this comic, to Andrew Hussie, and to this fandom no matter how bad it can be at times because I feel like I’m actually me for the first time in my life.
Something sort of related is the fact that I have really bad blanks in my memory so it’s hard to tell if I’ve always felt like this and I just can’t remember but…
I’ve come to accept that I’m asexual I don’t feel bad about it or like I have a disease anymore, I’m panromantic and I don’t care! I’ve broken past the way I was raised and learned that even as part of a religion the God I know and believe in (of course no offense if you don’t have a religion) wouldn’t hate me for that, I was silly to think so! I never thought anybody was less than me but I didn’t want to be that way I didn’t want to deal with it
but now I’m okay and I only have Homestuck and everything relating to it to thank for this.
Hello my name is Al, I’m a bigender panromantic asexual and thank you Homestuck for making me love and accept myself and others like I never could before.
This account has kind of died a little, I’m sure there are plenty of Happy Homestuck Stories out there c’mon guys! :]
I just wanted to express how happy I am at how huge Homestuck has gotten. Through this awesomely silly webcomic, I’ve made so many friends and look forward to a lot more events.
I joined the WashingtonStuck group not long ago, and I already feel so accepted. A lot more accepted than I do in real life aha. Everyone in that group is so kind and amazing and just ajidogoh oh my god, I can’t express it. It’s just so amazing to see so many people joined together by one interest: Homestuck.
I feel like I belong somewhere. I don’t feel like it’s a cliquey-type group. Everyone helps out with the meetups and help each other out with cosplay problems (aha my own wig fail).
I’m just so glad to be a part of that group. <3 I’m actually more excited for the PromStuck than real-life prom aha.
I’m just really thankful to Homestuck for bringing so many wonderful people together. c:
Okay, so I’ve been having a really rough week. A lot of things have been going on recently, the two most noteworthy being A) that I could go blind by the time I’m 35, and B) that my mom tried to make me go on a starvation diet because I’m not skinny enough.
So, I was (and still am, to a certain degree,) really… riled up about those things. I decided to look through the Signless tag because I have a con that I need to go to as him and I was kind of just looking for reference pictures when I came across this Signless RP blog. They answered a lot of questions about family troubles and stress and just plain annoyance, so I decided to ask them about the whole thing that happened with my mom.
I won’t say exactly what the response was, but it made me cry. I can’t even explain how happy it made me. And I couldn’t STOP crying, either. It just made me feel so amazing and loved, which, I can assure you, is not something I feel too often. Granted, I’m still a bit shaken up by the whole thing, but it meant so, SO much to me. :’)
Oh goodness, I’m so sorry your Mom is being so unreasonable to you, and I suffer from a similar genetic possibility. I’m glad you found a person who was able to help you feel a lot better, but in the mean time if you ever need someone to talk to, I’m always here for you! Just send me a message and I’ll reply to you privately, you’re more than welcome to. <3
My friend is making my GodTier John cosplay for me. She did a different design for the pants that I personally really, really love.
For her final in English class (I think), she basically has to do Show And Tell. She’s going to show her class how to make the pants for my cosplay. In ten minutes. She’s gonna sew them in front of the class in ten minutes.
I really wish I could skip my class to see this happen. XD it’s going to be awesome.
That sounds so unbelievably awesome. I wish I could see it.
The queue seems to be empty again!!
There are so many amazing followers of this blog, I’d love to hear from you! Even if you’ve posted before and have more stories to share, go right ahead! :]
