@lutzlig is hosting a series of polls to determine who the ultimate tumblr woman is. love her or hate her, here is why she is objectively the most fitting candidate for this title:
1. she's canonically attracted to women all throughout the homestuck series as well as transfem in pesterquest. SHE HAS A GIRLFRIEND!! she is without a doubt an LGBTQ icon
2. THIS IS THE HOMESTUCK WEBSITE. homestuck ABSOLUTELY dominated tumblr during its peak. homestuck is an integral facet of tumblr's early culture, don't forget your heritage. homestuck was even ranked #6 in the top webseries of tumblr in 2022, surpassing other popular media such as MBMBAM, heartstopper, WTNV, hazbin hotel, HLVRAI, sanders sides, RWBY, and TMA. we were here from the beginning and we're here to STAY. and vriska has proven that she has stood the test of time.
3. she's instantly recognizable. practically everyone who's been online during the 2010s has heard of her one way or another due to just how prevalent she is. you could even argue that she's the most recognizable homestuck character out of the entire cast.
4. she invented an entirely new genre of discourse. we all know that she's infamous for frequently starting arguments on forums so drawn-out and aggressive that they had to be locked. people still argue about her TODAY. after THIRTEEN YEARS!!! she is perfect for tumblr
5. she's an incredibly interesting and unique character. she's somehow both a protagonist and an antagonist simultaneously. you want to hate her and you want to feel bad for her and you want to see her die and you want to see her come back to life. her characterization is so complex and nuanced, she's both a victim of abuse and an abuser. she breaks all rules and expectations. you never know what she'll do next and there is nobody else quite like her
6. her personality embodies tumblr's culture perfectly. she's a nerd. she's a gamer. SHE'S WEIRD. she's an outcast. she roleplays. everyone hates her. everyone loves her. she's bold and she's brash and she'll only go down kicking and screaming and fighting until the bitter end. they've tried to kill her so many times but she always sticks around, just like our near and dear website

This won’t make your blog look ugly. How could you not reblog this? REBLOGGING THIS COULD SAVE A LIFE!!!
i am losing my fucking mind
who the hell is even voting for katya goncharov? where is our pride? where is our self respect? was katya anyone's gender/sexuality awakening? was katya ever so controversial to draw a sharp line in her source's fandom? Has Katya Ever Been Associated With Megalovania? katya may be tumblr's OC but vriska BREATHES and BLEEDS this hellsite. voting for a TWICE FICTIONAL CHARACTER over THE VRISKA SERKET for the MEME? for the FUCKING MEME?? despicable. #vriskasweep
has anyone ever changed their legal name to katya? no? exactly.
dude.... these 🤨 sunglasses
tumblr made katya. vriska made tumblr.
this is like poetry
stuck in a time loop where every day i wake up and it’s tomorrow
how on earth are people voting for katya goncharova though. there was a solid 3 year period where vriscourse was so inescapable that to preserve my braincells i would block anyone who expressed any positive OR negative opinion about her. ANY vriska opinion gets you banished. tumblrgirl of all time
