This week Abby is too sick for research, so she's teaching Amy about Homestuck so they can ask: why is the Homestuck fandom so self-deprecating? Discussion topics include: Is That Vriska?, fond recollections of peak weird 2012 fandom, and garbage sensibility.

Our music is Marie Curie by The Crypts!, from the album Discover Science.
