I think my own high school time mirrored this. In retrospect, it's completely obvious that I was an introverted kid, but I grew up in an insanely extroverted world, and felt like I didn't really fit in largely because of that (but not exclusively! The world is jacked beyond just that).
Loved this line. “It gets to hang out with melancholy and wistfulness and spontaneous fits of dancing and an impulsive desire to try new hobbies and crying over fictional characters”. Nice interview.

Same but I think it took me another 10 years or so to own it and not try to fit into something. Growing into my weirdness all the time!
If not for punk rock (age 17), I'm not 100% convinced I would have been able to escape that orbit.

My favorite too! We are beautiful complicated creatures of so many facets worth celebrating. I loved this too.
