@aleen Agreed on all counts, especially early seasons. His character grows in the later seasons, I can't recall with enough clarity to say he stops being problematic, I'm sure he still is in many ways. But he does grow. To your point though, how many 'nice guys' grew up thinking Xander was a good model for behavior? And, yeah, it's probably way too many.

@aleen I think he's the height of when the 'Friend Zone' trope was still largely acceptable. And I think since then we've become increasingly aware of how harmful, and idiotic, that trope is. I think his best season is Season 6. I know Jason doesn't like it, but I think it's the best. I mean, platonic male-female friendship saves the World, what's not to love?

Watching Buffy season 3. The older I get, the more I hate Xander.

@aleen this is my eldest niece, whom I intend to try to influence to be as much of a Feminist Nerd as I possibly can.

@obsolete_ape ok I've probably gone on too long, but earlier today I realized I was probably missing most of your Inktobers, and that made me sad. If you share them here, I'll boost them, but you're my only follower so... Shrugs.

@obsolete_ape FWIW I'm at weird crossroad right now. I need to change something. One option is move back to GR and be closer to my family, and their connections, and take advantage of that privilege. Which I'm somewhat unreasonably resistant to. But part of me thinks, well, I'd at least be hang with Vic offline.

@obsolete_ape so far I've had one non-family member, whom I did not inform, reach out and ask. I think very few people notice any absence in that hurricane of voices. But just because they can't see your absence in the chaos of their feed doesn't mean they don't want to hear from you. Reach out to some folks, without judgement of whether or not they notice your absence from the Noise.

@obsolete_ape Also 8 years ago FB and our interactions with it were so different. It was a supplement then, for me, personally, and 'recently,' it's become so much more of a replacement. One's healthy the other isn't.
