“Real magic is, you meet thousands of people every day and you don’t ever want to talk to them again — the magic is when you connect with somebody and you don’t know why, but you want to see them again,” he said. “You can’t curate that.”

And what helps make that magic happen? “We all have these passions that we’re taught to be ashamed of them and taught to hide them and no one tells us to celebrate them,” he said. “That’s part of the fun of fandom — you kind of get to middle finger everybody and go, ‘these are mine and if you don’t like them you don’t have to be here, you can leave… No one asked you to be here. This is my magic and I am looking to be with people that are also inspired. Maybe that makes me flawed but I’m okay with that.‘”

Anyone who’s ever been a fan of anything can understand what Jones means by that “magic.” And that’s what makes Jones so compelling as Mr. Nancy. The easiest way to become a god is to understand what it means to worship.”

He really is awesome, and this was a great article. So much truth in these words. 💖✨
