You know Homestuck, that notoriously huge webcomic by Andrew Hussie? We read it and try to make sense of it for you. Lydia’s read it before, Alex hasn’t. Read along at http://mspaintadventures.com.
We’re back! Yes, already. We’re just as surprised as you are. This one’s a club banger.
This week: [S] Cascade, the 13-minute Act 5 finale that brought down two major hosting platforms in one night.
Sometimes frog cancer is a dog-god carapace-man, and sometimes you’re wrong about the space explosion, and sometimes they’re sort of all one thing. Jade does some extremely important juggling. Bec, in spite of himself, is a very good dog. Page 4109 (https://www.homestuck.com/story/4109), just the one.
Next time: We’re starting Act 6. The kids earn some merit badges and the sun shines on Earth. Pages 4110 (https://www.homestuck.com/story/4110) to 4345 (https://www.homestuck.com/story/4345).
P.S. You should check out the wiki article (https://mspaintadventures.fandom.com/wiki/Cascade) on this animation to read about all the amazing contributors who made Cascade possible!

Episode 44: The Homestuck Is Constant, We Just Get Older
In these trying times, please allow us to humbly offer… Ham.
This time, Karkat makes a horrible frog mistake, the Handmaid makes a break for it, and the kids go dark. Pages 3874 (https://www.homestuck.com/story/3874) to 4108 (https://www.homestuck.com/story/4108).
Next time: [S] Cascade (https://www.homestuck.com/story/4109)! Cascade is the 13-minute blockbuster Flash update that ended Act 5 and brought down two media hosts in one night. It deserves its own episode, so we’re giving it one!

Episode 43: Time To Go In The Hole
Well!!!!!!!! Here’s Hamsteak!
Alex and Lydia return triumphant for another Homestuck anniversary with an episode that was recorded in August. We’re still planning on finishing this thing within our human lifetimes, folks.
John goes in the hole, Rose goes grimdark, Terezi goes to the roof and the reader goes to the doctor’s house. That’s right, it’s pages 3658 (https://www.homestuck.com/3658) to 3873 (https://www.homestuck.com/3873) of Homestuck.
The absolute bangers mentioned are Black Rose, Green Sun (https://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/black-rose-green-sun-2) and BL1ND JUST1C3 – 1NV3ST1G4T1ON !! (https://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/bl1nd-just1c3-1nv3st1g4t1on-2)
When will the next episode be?! Hopefully in less than one calendar year! Thank you again for your patience and hello to anyone who’s hopped on in the meantime!
