NotPete on Over 9000 said:
I would like to think it happened as part of the Condesce's propaganda campaign. After she took over the Earth, she needed some metric to convey her powers to the Earthlings. While searching, she came across the "Over 9000" meme and took it COMPLETELY SERIOUSLY. I'd like to think that there are posters strewn all over the place saying, "Despair: Her Power Level is Far Over 9000"

Yeah, the over 9000 reference was cringe-worthy, but other than that, this was a good update. The Condesce appears to have the powers of Sollux, Vriska and Tavros. Have a couple of theories about that, but I'm too burned out to type them up right now. I liked the run down of The Condesce's takeover, it mixed humour and drama quite well.

To be honest I found that whole portion of the story boring as hell which is why I just skimmed it rather than read the whole thing.
 
Hrm, how come? It was a bit info-dumpy, but I thought it was pretty funny how Dirk was telling this tragic, dramatic tale about the collapse of mankind that was interspersed with such ridiculousness. The bit about the ICP as presidents had me rolling.
 
It's not 6/13 until I fall asleep. Shut up, computer >:(

In any case, Hate You (from the new album) is wonderful. I'm beginning to love Meenah.
 
Pumpkin Party in Sea Hitler's Water Apocalypse is the best name for a song ever.

Now if only I had ~$11
And a PayPal account.
 
Wow, the new music is pretty nice. Pumpkin Party in Sea Hitler's Water Apocalypse is my favourite. Very awkwardly long song title though.
 
Yeah, I like this album. It's a big change from volumes 7/8 and all their grimdarkness--more like the zany stuff from vols. 1-4. Not that that's surprising, given the tone of the comic recently.

"A Taste for Adventure" is probably my favorite, but there's plenty of good ones to choose from. (It does bother me that they reference "Sea Hitler" rather than "Fish Hitler." The latter sounds better!")

Agreed.

I was interested in that author's request given for the latest update, hmm. Certainly was an interesting reveal though (if slightly terrifying, haha).

Same!

Wow, big reveal there. Not sure what to think yet. That shoots down pretty much all the speculative fanart, but the cheek swirls are totally cannon now. I'm ridiculously happy about that.
 
can someone tell me what just happened

So Lord English is actually Caliborn? Well, that means he's not invincible, right?

well, i lurked a little on the mspa forums; people are suggesting that caliborn actually prototyped his dual-kernelsprite (since i guess it is caliborn's and calliope's) with his /entire universe/ via the weird black hole thing, which might explain his invincibility. it has something to do with snowball or something, tbh i have no idea what's going on ever

But a kernelsprite hasn't ever bestowed any kind of actual power to anything before except for giving advice and powering up that universe's Jack. And it doesn't look like Lord English is godmoded either...perhaps the Cairo Overcoat gives him power?
