I can't really watch anything that doesn't have a clear arc or start/stop point. Shows are just too long for me. Last thing I liked was Over the Garden Wall which is just a sliced up movie. Love movies though so its not an attention span thing.

People ask me what I do and I cook a lot and draw and read books and kiss my boyfriend. IDK when I would even watch shows lol.

But I tell people this and they can't understand or get really weird interrogating me how I spend my free time. The happy version of this is some of my coworkers found out I really like dancing and now they ask me 'are you going dancing this weekend?' on Thursday or Friday.

I don't really like movies or sports that much and I have had people call me names over it. And then I start talking about EDM or something and they call me names over that too.

Kinda helped me realize there are 2 types of folks in the world. Ones who are insecure about their life and so try to tear down anyone who is different than them in any capacity, and the ones who are proud of the life they're living and build up folks who are different than them because they recognize that those people are probably proud of their life too.

I only purposely associate with the latter and I completely ignore the former. I don't need some Marvel idiot to tell me that somehow my taste in books is bad, I don't care if it's bad I like it
