Noticed that I am extremely tuned out of media discussions bc of Maoism-Autism mao-shining , but that sometimes I need to engage products, because I can't be picky about the battlefields. Vidya was a maladaptive coping mechanism for [fun and exciting] childhood kermit-pain spamsus for me, so I view old stuff with a distorted perspective and new stuff, I neither have the money nor the time for anything RPG or timesink wise. Same for anime, shows, movies and other stuff.

Now I don't want to be left out of these convos (Read: Struggle sessions about the cultural meaning of thing X or Y) entirely but is there any way to get back up on what a cultural product was about, preferably in-depth and critically?

    Why do you want to have vapid meaningless conversations about media you have no interest in? Talk with people about stuff you do have interest in. Going through the motions won't be as satisfying as you think.
