The Homestuck 2026 Fan Calendar is HERE!

We're back for another year of continuing the tradition of yearly Homestuck calendars! This year, the theme is Acts 1-5, 14 pieces from 14 different fantastic artists all acting as a highlight reel of the first half of the comic. And it came out pretty damn good, if I don't say so myself.

You can access a free, digital version of the calendar, purchase a physical one and have it shipped to you, or pay as little as $1 USD to gain access to a print-ready PDF and print it yourself!

>>>GET ONE HERE!<<<

Pre-Orders for the physical calendar are open until November 16th! So order one while they’re available!

The lovely artists responsible are:

@hamsterdads @weaselmcdiesel @xagave @bloobydabloob @neostellarjpg @indigonite @hurlyburlytopsyturvy @eggwishing @sollay-b @defstanis @skounch @theartisticapparition @clockworkreapers @dreamingdeadly

(And while I'm at it, did y'all see that animated pilot? On top of the calendar, there's other new official merch you can get that rocks, and official merch is pretty much all I've wanted this entire time.)

[joyfulldreams]

LESS THAN 38 HOURS REMAIN!

Pre-orders for the 2026 calendar close TOMORROW, November 16th! This is your last chance to guarantee yourself a copy! After the 16th, there will be some overstock to snap up, but that tends to go fast!

Go go go!!!

[dreamingdeadly]

I had the honour of drawing the back cover for the 2026 Homestuck Fan Calendar, which is available for purchase NOW right here!!

This year's theme is Acts 1-5, with each month's illustration highlighting a different act or intermission, and concluding with [S] Cascade on the front and back covers. This year's spread is absolutely gorgeous and you should grab a copy while you can!!

Huge thanks to @joyfulldreams for organising this project every year :)

IF YOU ARE A TRANS FEMME GET YOUR THYROID CHECKED, ESPECIALLY IF YOUVE NOTICED A DROP IN LIBIDO OR AN INABILITY TO MAINTAIN A STABLE WEIGHT

It isn’t a big deal if you have hypothyroidism, you just need to take an artificial thyroid hormone called Levothyroxine…but don’t let it go untreated!!! It’s super fucked up doctors don’t regularly check our thyroid when we start HRT

[cyprozombiegirl]

Specifically get your thyroid-binding globulin levels, since according to these articles your thyroid hormone levels might appear normal despite this occurring

[rectanglefeet]

AH!

Understanding Hormone Disorders and Their Impact on Transgender Hormone Therapy - Healor

Hormone Disorders and Their Impact on Transgender Hormone Therapy.Transgender hormone therapy can be complicated by hormone disorders. This

Said "recent study": https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8090061/

I really wish I saw this a few days ago, I was just at the endocrinologist. I'll bring it up with the PCP and see if he's willing to run that specific test or if I need to trudge back over for it.

[rheniite]

Re-reblogging to add: Out of the 48 trans patients with thyroid diagnoses, 26 were taking estrogen and 21 were taking testosterone. One is unspecified in the article.

43 of this thyroid dx/hrt group had hypothyroidism! That's 8.7% of the population taking hrt (total sample of 554), while 3-5% is the rate in the non-hrt population.

In other words: this applies to ALL folks taking hrt. This study found that hypothyroidism is somewhat more common with estrogen hrt, but the rate is still elevated with testosterone hrt vs people not taking any at all.

If you're on hrt and show signs of thyroid issues, talk to your care provider! It's common in general, and more common in us.

[cyprozombiegirl]

Because a lot of endocrinologists are weird fatphobic transphobic assholes here is what to do to get your levels checked: ask them to run full thyroid work up including TBG and F14, F13 levels. If they refuse, claiming that your TSH levels are normal, remind them that TSH is a pituitary hormone and can take many years before matching actual thyroid hormone levels. Tell them that the prevalence of hypothyroidism in trans people is approximately 8.7%, much higher than the estimates of 3-5% in the general population, and that estrogen can overstress a trans person’s thyroid causing hypothyroidism. If they still refuse, report them to whatever body governs their behaviour and find a new doctor.
