        @northernnarwhal Well it's been a while, from a more impetuous and sex-crazy William.

          @awlelwa Yeah, looking back on how Old Tyler acted I'd say some of the awful things people said to me were sort of warranted.

            @northernnarwhal Old Quinn was an obnoxious FrankerZ who got upset when people were honest to him. I am not Old Quinn. At all.

              @bobo Yeah, I've had some pretty intense fundamental changes in my worldview in the past year.

                @northernnarwhal Funnily enough, unlike Slightly Younger (But Still Old) Quinn, I'm back to being a fanboy. I forgot how fun it was to obsess over something.

                  @bobo I just try not to align my media preference with my personal identity, but that can lead to very misguided media engagement

                    @northernnarwhal Interestingly enough, being a fanboy of Steven Universe taught me that I could be obsessed with a fictitious world (and probably more unhealthily, fictitious characters) WHILE frequently making jokes about it WITHOUT being a huge obnoxious butt who shoves it down people's throats. I only make fun of my lesbo-rock-loving self among my friends who I know are fine with it, and find it somewhat funny at the least. Even then, I try to avoid talking about SU unless the current subject of the conversation pertains to it in some way and the timing is right for it to be appropriate enough to laugh about. Of course, this backfires sometimes (tbf my lesbian breakdown went a little too far yesterday), but I try my best to not be who I once was: an unfunny, obnoxious, fanboy.

                    I like rocks.

                      @bobo I guess with me it comes down to how I engage with my media. I (like any other person) obviously evaluate media with all my biases and priorities in mind, but in that sense I don't really view media as an extension of my self being but more an extension of said biases and priorities, which in turn extend from my own values and ideals as a person. I definitely also support the transformative power of art, in the sense that art has the capability to facilitate critical analysis of ourselves as people and the worldviews we bring to art.
