No Use Regretting The Past - Tumblr Posts

2 years ago

On liking stuff.

There's a post going around on Tumblr about reminding people that they had a Hamilton phase and them being ashamed of it, and I must be in a minority because I still think Hamilton is great, so I don't know what there is to be ashamed of.

I'm aware that the fandom of that particular thing had a reputation for being... strange, but I'm pretty sure being part of a cringey fandom is, like, a rite of passage to be on the internet nowadays. No need to throw the play itself under the bus because of it.

Maybe I'm just OOTL, but in general I don't understand the mindset of being ashamed of having loved something in the past that you aren't as into anymore. That's part of your growth and development.
