Music and Colo(u)rs and Mayhem

Listen up, everyone, because I'm only gonna say this once: if you ever get the chance to go on a tour of a radio station, for the love of God, DO IT. I won a tour of the Minnesota Public Radio studios that took place this past Tuesday, and it. was. awesome. Partly in the "this is how your sausage is made" way, and partly because it was basically

Oooh, you got to tour MPR! I think WBEZ owes me a station tour that I should take them up on sometime... (I should've done it when I knew Ira Glass was in town over the whole Mike Daisey thing, but I'm not sure I want my station tour full of Drama, as interesting as it might be...) (-;

I'm digging the new album, though I haven't given it nearly as much attention as you have. I'm going to have to go back to it again with your comments in mind.

And darn you for linking me to that fic! Now I have to read it. (I like this idea. Also I like horribly long universe/game-centric Homestuck fics.)

Also, while we're here... what did you make of the April 2 update? I wanted to immediately put up the flutingfrenzy signal after I read it, but I haven't been sitting still much lately so I was just sort of left laughing to myself and going "Holy crap what is even going on anymore!" I love not having a clue what's actually going on (I'm torn between Late April Fool's and Horribly Relevant to the Plot in Some Twisted Way, PS Did You Notice Hussie's Been Dead

Yes, you do have to read the fic. You, personally, will love it, I promise. Definitely read the comments, too, because there are a lot of people RPing in them as Sburb-playing OCs, getting advice on their weird game problems from the author and each other. The only thing is that there are quite a few mechanical errors in the fic, and strangely, a lot of them are the type that non-native speakers tend to make - but there is no way this author isn't fluent in English.

Haha, the April 2nd update. Is it weird that my entire reaction to AH's death, Vriska's appearance, the LOSAZ(?) setting, everything, was completely eclipsed by "HOLY CRAP DID THE REAL ANDREW HUSSIE JUST USE HIS COMIC TO PROPOSE TO SOMEONE? Will he be okay when he finds out that Ryan North is already married?" But since the answers to my questions continue to elude me, I GUESS I can consider other angles too

I'm definitely enjoying it so far! Man, I really need to keep better track of the fic in this fandom... I basically have to rely entirely on randomly stumbling across things.

I think there was a lot of speculation as to whether or not he'd actually proposed to someone, but supposedly his girlfriend denied it. Though Ryan North hasn't denied it.Yeah, I think that death was definitely heroic... But does that matter if someone is already dead? (This plays right into my curiosity about the absolutely huge amount of stuff in the dream bubbles, and why it doesn't/whether it does count as its own separate universe. I'm kind of left wondering whose dreams they're actually meant to be... I mean, they're influenced by the players, but what with all the dead-ended timeline people (who can still do lifey things and influence living players/Dersites/etc.? That's sort of sticking awkwardly in my brain right now) and things, it makes me wonder if it isn't the game's dreams/Skaia's dreams or something

It must be really awkward to have to field questions about whether your boyfriend just proposed to you via his webcomic, especially if the answer is no. (Especially especially if the answer is yes but you want your family and friends to know before the whole internet does, and even more especially if the answer is yes, but to his married bro instead of you, but moving on
