Dude has a death wish

Delighted to announce this bird is real and is a corvid.

Truly the family that just keeps giving.

[haropla]

I haven’t seen it in the notes yet, so afaik, here’s the source of that video! So now you can see the funny poison bird much more clearly.

It was taken by a biologist that studies birds so it seems like he knows what he’s doing. For the most part. Here’s his caption:

Heir of Doom (#60 / 144)

Heir of Doom [#060 / 144]

Title Breakdown: [Esoteric Carrier] of [Aesthetic Culmination]

Class: Heir. Arguably the most Passive class in the Game, the Heir manifests or channels their Aspect, instantiating its essence within their own 8eing. The Heirs arc is one from disconnection from their Aspect to transcendence through it; like their opposite/complementary Class, the Mage, they experience their Aspect fully, but unlike the Mage, they do so not through understanding and interaction with their Aspect but rather through unity with and transformation into their Aspect. The Heir is Analogous to the Seer and the Witch, and is a Carrier Class like the Bard and the Rogue: the connection between an Heir and their Aspect is therefore extremely abstract and almost spiritual, by contrast to the Catalysts’(Knights’, Mages’, and Maids’) practical and agency-oriented connection to their respective Aspects.

Aspect: Doom. Associated with structure, suffering, sympathy/empathy, and resilience in the face of mortality and inevitability, Doom is the opposite/complement to Life and is affine/analogous with Hope and Time. It shares Time’s connection to death and finality, and Hope’s connection to grand narratives and acceptance of the inevitable; however, it differs from Time in that its connection to death has more to do with inevitability and persistence than with conflict and struggle, and it differs from Hope in that it is associated with pragmatics and rational interpretation of internal structure, rather than with leaps of faith and personal conviction. Doom is an Aesthetic/Ethical Aspect, like Heart, Mind, and Life - this means that its narrative domains have to do with personal action and interpretation of circumstance, and its metanarrative domains have to do with sub-textual meaning, as opposed to text or hypertextual context.

Mechanical Profile: The Heir of Doom becomes and inherits the inevitability of death, and their role in the Game is suffused with both the slow and painful march of Time and its consequences, and with the Hope to carry on even in the face of that. Like any Heir (or really, any Passive Class), their control over their Classpect-related abilities is likely to be indirect and abstract, and at times the extent to which their powers are beyond their control is likely to prove problematic - Heirs often initially struggle to act in harmony with their Aspect, and the greater the contention and dissonance between their aims and their Aspect’s, the more serious these problems could become.

However, what Carrier classes lack in capacity to Assume Direct Control, they make up for in the clarity and completeness of their connection to their Aspect, which is capable of manifesting in unparalleled bursts of raw power when the Heir is able to fully synchronize with the essence of Doom. Such synchronization is most likely to be achieved through the dialectical synthesis and simultaneous acceptance of both inevitability and the Will to persevere beyond the inevitable, and to pass through the shadow of death and be transformed without being destroyed.

The in-game abilities associated with Doom aren’t particularly deeply explored in the text of Homestuck; as such, most of what can be said about said abilities is speculation and conjecture. Doom, like its complement, Life, is connected to cycles of creation and destruction, growth and the consumption necessitated thereby, and of course, Death and Rebirth, with Doom having the stronger connection to the negative/destructive pole of this dichotomy. Consequently, it seems likely enough that an Heir of Doom would be able to channel into themselves symbolically destructive and transformative energies, such as fire (combustion, conflagration, oxidation) and decay, chemical, nuclear, or biological. Key to understanding the nature of Doom are the notions of inevitability and necessity, for within the domain of Doom, by contrast to its analogue, Time, death and fate are not hostile forces with which the Aspect-bound must valiantly contend, but rather processes essential to survival and being which the Aspect-bound are called upon to embrace with equanimity. This principle is reinforced by the link between the Doom-bound and self-sacrifice or martyrdom (see the Psiioniic, who was himself an Heir of Doom, tragically consumed by Doom but - crucially - not in vain). Like the Time-bound, the Doom-bound must walk the line between righteous self-sacrifice and senseless self-destruction/self-abnegation, and this line is all the finer for those Doom-bound heroes belonging to Carrier classes like their Heir.

A final note on the relationship between the Heir and their Aspect, that seems especially relevant in the case of the Heir of Doom - an Heir’s connection to their Aspect develops slowly, and, at initially, on a level that is often subliminal to the Heir themselves. That is to say, an Heir of Doom will begin to Inherit Doom, and take on its mantle of resilience and sacrifice, before they are aware that they have done so. However, once this gradual process of investiture has progressed, and the Heir has both realized their own capability and accepted the responsibility placed upon them, it’s quite likely that said process should culminate in a sort of climactic moment of inheritance - the moment of recognition of power is also the moment in which the power is made real. This moment of culmination could be ecstatic or traumatic (or neither, or both), but will almost certainly occur in a moment of transformative actualisation, which moment is all-but-certain to prove foundational not only to the structure of the Heir’s personal growth, but to the progress of the Game itself, and of all of its players. The road of Doom’s Heir is far from smooth, but could well be the lynchpin of the Session itself.

Personality: In terms of personal character, Doom players have a tendency to manifest some level of stoicism or cynicism - altho, crucially, this detachment is not necessarily representative of their essential character. Rather, it is a mechanism of survival by way of detachment; in the face of the suffering that haunts the Doom-bound and those around them, it becomes necessary for (in this case) the Heir to, to a degree, abstract themselves from the seemingly intractable harshness of their circumstances.

This quality of Doom-bound Heroes may seem, perhaps, as less-than-copacetic with the Heir’s calling to embrace their Aspect, and more broadly, the world as a whole - indeed, the arc of the Heir as a Mythological Role is necessarily bent towards greater connectivity, rather than any sort of toughening, distancing, or abstraction. However, this apparent contradiction should, ideally, be resolved over the course of the Heir of Doom’s in-game character development: as they realize their connection to Doom, the Aspect, their projected cynicism and their feeling, voluntary or otherwise, of distance from their world and their peers, should be sublimated into a willingness to connect with their surroundings not despite the likely harsh character thereof, but because of it. The great virtue of Doom is a sort of universalizing sympathy and empathy through comprehension of the structures underlying the cyclical confluence and disintegration of all things, and as the rightful inheritor of that virtue, the Heir of Doom carries in themselves a sort of paradoxical Hope - that even in the face of Death and Decay, they Live and Grow, that set as they may be against the headwind inexorable of Entropy, they weather onwards, establishing structure, shelter, and solidarity yet in the center of that storm.

“Do or die, you'll never make me

Because the world will never take my heart

Go and try, you'll never break me

We want it all, we wanna play this part

I won't explain or say I'm sorry

I'm unashamed, I'm gonna show my scars

Give a cheer for all the broken

Listen here, because it's who we are....

We’ll carry on, we’ll carry on.”

[classpect-navelgazing]

taking classpect, flippin it turnways

Hello. My name is Arcturus. I am here to talk about classpect. Why? Hard to say.

I've been percolating this for quite a while now, and I feel I have finally settled on a unified theory of classpect. But I feel I have to do a few disclaimers up front, so if you don't vibe with what I'm laying out, you can hit that back button and be free to go about your day.

Disclaimer One: I am an archive reader of Homestuck, and only consider "canon" to be the actual comic from page one up to the Act 7/Credits flashes. Nothing from friendsim, pesterquest, or any of the """Post Canon""" content will be taken into account here. This also includes the "official" quiz that WP finally put up, because I find it lacking in several metrics.

Disclaimer Two: I strongly consider everyone in HS to be an Unreliable Narrator, and I heavily doubt anything that is outright 'told' to the reader by specific characters. My profiles of each aspect and class come from observation of actions. More specifically: I think Calliope's infodumps in Act 6 are interesting theorycraft but nothing more. Meaning…

Disclaimer Three: I don't give much stock to inversion theory, to gendering the classes, to passive/active classes (and outright disagree with some of Calliope's assessments), and frankly to a lot of the sort of Assumed Truths of classpect. Going into this, you can expect to see some ideas that I think go against the popular fanon.

If any of these are dealbreakers for you, then smash that back button and have a lovely day!

Let's get started! How do you explore this project?

My preferred method of figuring out classpect is the self-doxxing method. I have written some pretty thorough (but hopefully not overlong) descriptions of the common traits of each class and aspect. I would recommend starting with the Classes and begin to navigate through and read them.

This project has been pretty thoroughly beta tested at this point, and the common refrain is someone finding something that feels like a person attack. That would be the correct selection for you, the one that makes you feel particularly seen and observed.

Now, personally, I think its extremely hard to test for classpect. I think Aspect is slightly more feasible but Class is impossible. This is because I believe Class should be understood as what role you play in the narrative. When the audience is handed a playbill with the Dramatis Personae, what is the little descriptor next to your name? That is your class.

As such, it's hard for someone else to tell you what it is; it's about your personal journey and how you interact with the world. In the end, the person who is best going to understand what class you are is you. not me.

Aspect is slightly easier to assign from the outside. For that, I am currently working on a quiz for the people who truly have no idea or who just like quizzes. But for the time being, I would suggest figuring out your Class first, then moving onto Aspect. There have been a handful of people who found it easier to work the other way around, though, so don't feel like you're not allowed to look at Aspect if you want.

That's enough from me! Get started!

CLASSES (tagged here)

MAID: "Burdened by the aspect"

SLYPH: "Heals their aspect in others"

WITCH: "Sponsored by their aspect"

PAGE: "Served by their aspect"

KNIGHT: "Guardian of their aspect"

ROGUE: "Distributing their aspect to others"

SEER: "Knowledge of their aspect to serve others"

THIEF: "Steals aspect for self"

MAGE: "Knowledge of their aspect to serve self"

PRINCE: "In service to their aspect"

HEIR: "Avatar of their aspect"

BARD: "The Facilitator of the narrative"

ASPECTS (tagged here)

BLOOD: the aspect of obligation

DOOM: the aspect of inevitability

LIGHT: the aspect of relevance

SPACE: the aspect of the concrete

HOPE: the aspect of imagination

VOID: the aspect of obsession

LIFE: the aspect of affluence

BREATH: the aspect of freedom

RAGE: the aspect of impulse

TIME: the aspect of opportunity

HEART: the aspect of identity

MIND: the aspect of skepticism

Hey, what about Prospit vs Derse?

Sure, that one's easy. I got a quiz for that here.

Where are Muse and Lord?

Nah. I don't think I can extrapolate the similarities of the class from a single example. The games of Sburb seems to only use Muse/Lord in the event of a two player game, as they don't appear naturally in any of the four other sessions we get to look at. So nope.

Hey this is a lot of information and I'm still struggling to decide my class/aspect.

I'll make a post outlining some similarities and delineations to help you out later.

Final Thoughts

This was a metric fuckton of work. I have struggled with a lot of other analyses of classpect, and every time I go to HS wiki and look at their page on in, I see red, because none of it makes sense! None of it has internal logic! This project has been me throwing out everything I've seen on the topic and trying to create something that makes sense.

If you enjoyed it and want to give me a tip, I have a ko-fi over here.

Thanks to everyone who tolerated me working on this project, especially my Whomstve server. If it were for all y'all going "GASP I'VE BEEN DOXXED" and "WHY IS THIS SO ACCURATE" I would've quit.

For the curious, the hardest class to nail down was Prince. Trying to fucking unify Dirk, Eridan, and Kurloz was a nightmare, but I actually am very happy with the final product. Though admitting that shit about myself wasn't fun.

The hardest class to write was, hilariously, Heart, for the same reason. Unifying the experiences of the characters was difficult.

I am a Prince of Heart, but my favorite class is Page. My favorite aspect is Blood.

[soft-lily]

Okay updating and consolidating lots of info here; as well as adding links for ease of access. Adding a brief description for some too; as is the case that not all of them have descriptions above. (Warning that some of these links contain nude refs, I will try to mark where possible which ones have more prominent ones.)

Don’t forget ColourLovers, either! It’s a social media-esque site where you can browse tons of palettes and share your own.

You can browse the most popular ones or search for certain colors, themes, and even specific hex codes!

When you find one you like, you can download a wallpaper swatch of it and also select the specific colors it uses to look at more palettes that use those same ones.

ColourLovers is my go-to for when I’m having trouble coming up with a color scheme! It’s also been around for over a decade, so there’s plenty to browse through.

Yo, you want some adorable non-fruit bats? Gotcha covered, pals!

Long Eared Bat, huge ears and an adorable face!

Mexican Free Tailed Bat, named for the fact that their uropatagium (back leg membrane) doesn’t cover their tail, leaving them with a teeny mouse-like tail. 

Gould’s Wattled Bat, they got some pearly white sharp teeth, but they tell great jokes and always laugh at yours too. 

“HAHAHAHAHA!”

Hoary Bat, AKA the bat that looks like they’re covered in powdered sugar.

Bulldog Bat, a bulldog… with wings <3 

Vampire Bat, often seen as creepy, but they’re actually really cute. Also fun fact, vampire bats live in a social structure where able-bodied bats go out and feed and then share part of their meal with old/weak/sick members who cannot forage themselves. No survival of the fittest here, every bat helps every bat out <3 

And lastly, the Painted Bat, and yes, those are its actual colors. Can’t get any more Halloween than that <3 

[dreamingbuttons]

Let me add a couple more!!

A personal favorite of mine: Honduran White Fruit Bat, also known as ‘Marshmallow Bats’! These tiny cuties make tents by nibbling on the leaves until they fold down, and they snuggle close underneath it!

Bumblebee Bat! The smallest bat species and often considered the smallest mammal on Earth!

And the newly discovered Pied Bat!! I couldn’t find much about them, but gosh, they are adorable!!

What it’s like to be slut-shamed when buying birth control

Even when pharmacists do let people access contraception, whether emergency contraception or condoms or prescription birth control pills, the process isn’t always free of judgment. In a series of recent online discussions, people across the country have begun to share stories of the stigma they’ve experienced. As many have pointed out, this can be especially damaging to teens.

[roseykins]

DO YOU SEE THIS? PHARMACY EMPLOYEES IN THE U.S. ARE NOT LEGALLY ALLOWED TO DO THIS. THAT GOES FOR THE PEOPLE AT THE FRONT AS WELL AS PEOPLE IN WHITE COATS BEHIND THE CAGE.

If an employee in a pharmacy makes a snide comment - Front store workers, pharmacists, or Pharmacy Techs give you shit? Gently (Or not so gently) remind them that the waiver they signed upon being hired legally binds them from commenting on your purchase, as it is a violation of privacy laws. Doing so is grounds for INSTANT termination and hefty fines.

Pharmacy workers (white coats) are legally obligated to ASK if you need an explanation of how medication works and any side effects, any medication conflicts etc. If you decline, THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED AT ALL TO MAKE SNIDE REMARKS OR FARTHER COMMENT ON YOUR PURCHASE. FRONT STORE EMPLOYEES CAN NOT AT ALL COMMENT IN ANY WAY, IN ANY STORE WITH A PHARMACY IN IT.

Know your rights. If this shit happens? Call them the fuck out and ask to speak to a manager. Get worked up. Cause a scene. Threaten a Lawsuit. If you see this happening to someone else, and they seem to be struggling, speak up for them. 

As a Pharmacy worker, you bet your ass I’ll protect you and your privacy. IT’S MY JOB.

[gaysheep]

good news! you can’t make sure that everyone will see the correct colors on their own device, but you can make sure your monitor is as accurate as possible for printing and sharing by calibrating it! 

there are a bunch of free monitor tests, but here’s an easy one you can use. the passmark and eizo tests are also pretty good, though passmark doesn’t work in your browser. be warned that some tests may cause eye strain.

you can either use the settings built into your monitor itself or use the display color calibration settings in your operating system to adjust the settings until everything looks correct, and then enjoy your accurate colors.
