I'm really not the type to "gatekeep".

I actually, personally, have a strange relationship, or rather non-relationship, with music because of judgement and gatekeeping. It's crappy. But yet, I can't help but feel a strange, and, I can't lie, pretty negative curiosity toward the people I like to refer to as "once a yearers". This is my term for the people that only celebrate Halloween once a year. For the record, I don't actually think there's anything inherently wrong with enjoying seasons, you know, seasonally.
