This is so true.

This is so true, it almost made me cry. Not writing since you were twelve, endangering jobs, relationships, not getting enough exercise and staying up way, way too late.

I love this so much. Thank you, Jess. <3

Fandom is where you found yourself.

Fandom is a lifeline, sometimes.

I know exactly what you mean. Honestly, all of my best friends I met because of a fandom and I will forever be thankful for that bringing us together. We are spread all across the country, so we never would have gotten to know each other if not for the fandom. Fandom = love <3
