I spent the hot summer evening as one does, watching Twilight in an alley projected against a bar





(I've still never read the books and only watched one of the films very recently. But, it sounded hilarious. They've got a Twilight drag event next. I'm debating going. The organizers and attendees were wonderful, but doing too many of these events as someone who isn't a fan feels odd. I got asked what 'team' I am and was confused for a moment.)

I wish my tastes were less niche. And like, I don't need stuff to cater to my exact everything, but I will never be into Twilight.

It would be nice to be into The Big Thing, sometimes.

Though yeah... can't say it's ever going to be Twilight for me either, haha.

One reason I love being a Stranger Things fan is that it's nice not being in a tiny corner and having to like explain this weird niche I'm in. I don't like these weird, cramped corners. They can be cozy, for short periods of time, but would like more big fandoms.

Yes! Being into the popular, well-known thing for once is pretty great!

It is a fine line between "cozy" and "cramped." So much of what I like ends up being those little lesser-known (or at least lesser-fanned) things, and I'm just not energetic enough to be a fandom of one!
