I’ve been meaning to post more besides Weeknotes, and I’m in a mood. So, why not let the two impulses dovetail?
You know, this guy hadn't seen any of the movies at this point. Obviously not a real fan, amirite? #gofuckyourself #gatekeepers pic.twitter.com/bI3nOAH14K

You know, I used to have more patience for people who protect and defend their fandoms. Back in the day, there was a line to be held with the people who point and laugh for loving STAR WARS, or DOCTOR WHO, or any comic book. There was a good fight to be fought.
But now, I see “real fans” doing the pointing and laughing, targeting poeple with the gall to love what we love, except a little bit differently than how we do? Really?
And if you’re within spitting distance of my age and doing that (Yeah, I see you.), what the hell’s the matter with you? Try aging gracefully, FFS.
