istg i'll see a message from someone on here and 90% of the time they'll be over 20, a questionable amount of the time they'll even be over 30

btw but I got my younger brother into Homestuck via the OG Garry's mod Homestuck pack quite some time ago lol out here sewing the seeds before I even knew a cartoon was being considered.

This is why you keep your age hidden people. You gotta keep your age anonymous so that you can never be called old (even if you are in the 20+ age range :P)

I'm already using a walker smh

(bc I got hit by a car in march)(I'll probably move onto a cane if not just go back to unassisted walking)

@missmonkeymode


dont worry i wouldnt be so jokey about it if I was doing bad (maybe?). like yeah sure I have truly too many drs appointments to manage and trying to figure out the like lawyer side of things has been a headache and a half but like!! Ive been making good healing progress!

I keep typing up some kinda joke about the state of my right leg but I keep deleting it going "nah thats probably too dark thats gonna make someone uncomfy" so i might as well just send this post as is at this point. but yeah. could be Way WAY worse im doin fine (and i also dont remember like most of that entire month anyway :P)

"I'm about to be 26 in September, I've already pre-ordered my walking cane and still waiting on my callback for the Mobility Stair Lift"


I just turned 26 this month and I'd already been using my walking cane for a couple months, you better fast-track that before you're caught without it!

There was just no point during the process of aging where I felt like I needed to stop being myself. I'm better at doing like, basic adult life things, but there was no point where I decided that I had to throw out all of the gaudy, colorful stuff that I like in order to affect a more 'adult' seeming image. You really can have your cake and eat it too.

homestuck is getting "old" too + once a homestuck always a homestuck + who else uses old timey forums like these, most younger people will defo prefer other more popular options

it is a matter of mindset.
