    Onions.

    As a kid I thought they were alien and gross, and now thinking back I can still see that. But at some point, I had a burger with minced onions on it and was like “oh these things are great” and was a fan ever since. My onion smell is physical dominance 💪

    Turn-based RPGs.

    Although only very few of those are in my top favorites, but back then DESPISED the genre, because of a really bad experience playing one as a child.

    Gardening.

    Previously my only gardening experience was my mom yelling at me to weed outside in the hot summer sun.

    Now that I live alone, I started getting potted plants, and there is something wonderful about sharing my space with green growing things. I have a few that have really taken to the environment and amount of sunlight, watching them grow is wonderful. Marveling when one of my little planty bois randomly flowers, and there’s something so stress-relieving about digging your hands into soil when it’s time to re-pot.

      Yeah, I’m getting back into gardening despite the whole being yelled at to help garden as a kid! Also if the plants die, when I cry over them, I won’t be told I’m being melodramatic!

    Mobile gaming. I still kind of hate it but after finding some good games and using emulators, I’ve grown to except it and I do actively play games on mobile now.

      I have the opposite feeling regarding ghost, 10 years ago they were a cool growing underground bands with a fun make up and lore, and by the end of the 2010’s you would hear them at the radio, and a lot of drama between Papa and the Ghouls (Magna carta cartel is the former Ghouls band, and the legit successor of Ghost)

      Let alone that I can’t afford ticket anymore.

      The description of Ghost I’ve read online: “Ghost is modern day Kiss of rock/metal music” and I think it’s true. It’s more money generator than band.
