Imagine Pixelstuck, but brown, yeah that's what it is., coloquially known as Brown Pixelstuck is a faction that makes art featuring the color brown based on the webcomic, Homestuck inspired by the other Homestuck-themed faction, Pixelstuck. It was founded by Onion77 during Canvas 90 as an Anti-Swarm discord server called the Squiddles Swarm Destruction Device and later rebranded to its current name during Canvas 91, the same canvas where the faction made their first artwork.
History
Canvas 90
During this canvas, Onion77 created an anti-Swarm discord server called the Squiddles Swarm Destruction Device (SSDD), inviting many prominent placers that are against or have been critical of Swarm. Onion claimed ironically in the server to have plans to destroy or place over art made by Neuro-sama's Swarm in Canvas 91.
Canvas 91
During this canvas, SSDD placed the cover of Homestuck album, Squiddles!. The art was initially positioned in the top right corner of the canvas' tail, but was later moved to the canvas' right leg in an area bordering the Cell Lattice due to an overlap with Neuro-sama's Swarm.
SSDD also placed multiple "mini squiddles" in areas near art by the Swarm over the course of the canvas, one of which was placed over with art by the newly formed Crelly's Herd faction, another mini squiddle was placed in the Swarm's emote box and was later covered by the :neuroSuperior: emote, the rest of the mini squiddles were later covered by the Swarm's background art.
Later in the canvas, Onion77 established an in-game faction named Pixelstuck, identical to the existing faction of the same name but distinguished by a Chocolate-colored tag. Following this, the SSDD discord server was renamed to Brown Pixelstuck. The in-game faction was later renamed to Imagine Pixelstuck, but brown, yeah that's what it is. in response to concerns raised by Defensive_Lobster about the potential for diplomatic confusion with the original Pixelstuck faction.

Canvas 92
Brown Pixelstuck's main art for this canvas was originally defiddled by Pebble for the main Pixelstuck faction, but Brown Pixelstuck was given permission to use it.
During the canvas, after the faction was finished with their main art and had fully restored it from the earlier unhelpings. Pro Squiddler, Eve announced that the faction would be placing Jade Harley between the disembodied legs of Minato Aqua, which was placed by the NPom collab.
While the Jade artwork was being placed, 3 placers from the NPom collab began attacking the unfinished piece by replacing its pixels with azure ones, imitating the state of the canvas prior to Jade being placed. The attacks were due to the faction placing Jade directly inbetween the legs without any gap between the artworks. These attacks caused The Arsonists and other volunteers to assist Brown Pixelstuck in placing their art. This conflict is ongoing, with the Brown Pixelstuck-led coalition currently outplacing the attackers.
Brown Pixelstuck unhelpings
Main article: C92 Bee raids#Brown Pixelstuck unhelpings
During the canvas, pixels on Brown Pixelstuck's art that were originally placed by defenders of the Sabrina Carpenter bee art were later replaced by those same users with azure pixels, imitating the initial state of the canvas. The bee defenders claimed that they were retracting their prior support to Brown Pixelstuck in protest of prominent members of the faction, including Onion77 assisting The Arsonists in the C92 Bee raids.
It was later clarified that this response stemmed from a misunderstanding, as the bee defenders believed the entire faction was participating in the griefs, due to Onion and Fisk (a major contributor to the raids) both having the Brown Pixelstuck in-canvas faction tag equipped during the attacks.
The unhelpings lasted 7 hours resulting in the bee defenders having successfully undone all of the pixels that they had contributed to the faction. The unhelpings climaxed 6 hours in with Brown Pixelstuck having lost approximately 1,800 pixels of progress at the time. The faction is currently repairing their art.
