Seconding everyone that said "heart in the right place but execution was messy" and more. I personally am of the opinion that 'if its your first time reading it, you should read homestuck without the mod and in the future you can use it' because it's apart of homestucks history as a work, you shouldnt brush it under the rug or dismiss it as 'part of its time'. But it's like. Its tricky, talking about slur replacements and the nature of homestuck and such, I know I dont like it whenever I see the r word thrown around but I dont want to upright replace it and pretend it doesnt exist you know? Its complicated and difficult and I dont think theres a clear cut answer like what the slur replacement mod suggests.
