I genuinely believe that participation in fandom ought to mean you consume media critically. Too many fans just... don't. The are media illiterate.

I recently got back into an old fandom of mine for no particular reason other than that it randomly sprung up and kind of stuck.

Now, I’ve decided I’d like to finally tell a fan fic (either written or as a comic) that’s been sitting in the back of my brain for the past 14-15 years.

I’m pushing 40 years old and the feeling of “You’re too old for this shit” is kicking me hard in the shins. It’s also too specific to my tastes that the fandom wouldn’t like it.

Maybe it should just remain as fleeting thought in my brain...

I think the American remake of the ring is better than the Japanese original.

Jim/Dwight from The Office is a great ship, to be honest - it can be goofy and wholesome, or hate sex and fucked up. Versatility, baby!

I'd rather read my horror than watch it. Easier to avoid nightmares.

You never know, OP. There might be another 40-year-old (or whatever age) out there somewhere who's been waiting for someone to scratch that itch for them.

I've recently gotten into a new fandom for the first time in a long time, which is awesome and very exciting. It's also the fist time in a loooooong time where I'm shipping two ostensibly straight guys. There's all the stereotypical stuff: the longing looks, grand gestures, meaningful conversations, random touchy-feely-ness, other characters calling them a couple, comments from the actors, etc. but I know there's zero chance it's anything other than queerbaiting. I've gotten way too spoiled by shipping canon queer characters who did/probably will/at least could become canon, and I'm not sure I can handle them eventually getting serious with other love interests [they've both had love interests, but none that seemed endgame].

sb I know I'm being ridiculously dramatic.

I always feel guilty unfollowing people on Twitch, especially if they're smaller streamers. But I only want to follow people who I actually watch. So when people shift their focus to other games than the ones I enjoy watching, I unfollow. I make sure to do it while they're offline so they don't see their follower count go down, especially if they're a small streamer. I just feel bad.

I say, write it for yourself! If you like how it turns out, dare to post it. As prev anon said, there's someone out there who will appreciate it.

Age and fandom aren't mutually exclusive.

There are people now in their 70s who were diehard Trekkies back in the day, when there were no photocopiers or printers to print out your 'zine. Do what makes you happy.

I am literally and currently drawing a long-form fancomic about a game with, like, no fandom, because I got hyperfixated on it recently. And I'll be 40 this month. What I got out of it was like 3 friends who wanted to try the game out and me just enjoy making it, even if it's my niche. So I hope you go for it, OP. It's satisfying!
