I like space stuff. a few months after i graduated high school i was working for my brother-in-law and was making decent cash. was wandering around gamestop one day and thinking "gently caress I wanna play twisted metal black I wish I had a PS2." then came the first realization i was a fuckin adult and could buy myself a ps2 if i wanted. so i did. my girlfriend said it was a waste of money but I was chucking explosive corpses at sweet tooth so she was full of poo poo

I thought by 37 I'd feel like an adult but I still don't. I don't feel like an expert at anything or like I have a good grasp on anything. Life still feels like I'm going by the seat of my pants. But I think that's ok and this is probably how everyone feels. I bet my dad felt like this when he was 37. Hell he probably still feels like this at 67.

Everyone is just a child pushing for that high score. People who live past 100 are the type who are trying to get the pac man machine to lock up.

Hell he probably still feels like this at 67. imposter syndrome is a gently caress, you got a loving family and public service job, that alone is more than a significant portion of this fucker country can say. it's common that true experts in something don't even realize they're good at it. I got a buddy who does drawing, but like really good drawing. for a long time he was like "I'm not good at drawing I just doodle and screw around I've never even taken any art classes!" it wasn't until his wife badgered him into submitting something for a contest (he won second place out of like 2000 submissions) that he realized his own ability. he doesn't make a living on art but has a little side business doing rpg character portraits and painting minis and stuff.

There’s this band I love called Iron Chic and one their lyrics is “there’s no answers so take a guess and make up the rest.” The older I get the more that rings true. I don’t think anyone knows what they’re doing totally.

I don’t think anyone knows what they’re doing totally. Hell yeah, Iron Chic buddy. Also have always loved seeing your Hot Water Music av. I turn 40 this year and I still don't know what the gently caress we're supposed to be doing. I don't know if my parents felt the same way. I have 2 older siblings and my mother & stepfather always just seemed to know what they were doing, but I'm sure a lot of it was a guessing game. Maybe less so once I was born since they had been through it with two kids already by then. Sometimes I think back to stuff like when we'd get hit with a major storm like a blizzard that dumps feet of snow on us and knocks out power and poo poo, and as a kid you just kind of trust that your parents know what they're doing and you're just excited about the snow and the days off from school. I'm sure they were freaking out and taking steps to prepare for stuff like that, I just never realized it or noticed it as a kid. As an adult, having to worry about and plan for and think about this stuff with our own home, I have to assume my parents also felt the same confusion and uncertainty about what to do at times. Maybe because my partner and I don't have, and aren't going to have, kids we can voice our concerns a little more freely because we don't need to make sure our kid doesn't freak out about us freaking out. I feel like there's also a weird suspended animation this generation is living in. Everything that was popular when we were kids just keeps getting recycled and becoming popular again and again, and like 80% of media consumption is based around nostalgia from when we were kids. I could be wrong since I didn't really live through the times in the same way, but I have to assume it wasn't like this for our parents when they were our age. For them, everything maybe felt like it was moving forward and you had to "put childish things away". For our generation, every corporation caters to us and sells us all of our childhood back to us. How could we ever really expect to feel grown and like "real adults" in those circumstances? I don't know. I think about this poo poo all of the time as this wall of text probably makes clear, but at the end of the day I think you've just got to do your best and live your life the best way you can. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go stare longingly at my VHS collection.

Oh god now I'm remembering when I used to work for the state and actually evacuated Lake Charles and then when everyone was gone sped away from Hurricane Laura at 2 in the morning to get out of the blast zone.

everybody feels that way sometimes. my FIL is in his 70s and he still feels like he's out on the sea without a paddle. you do good work and take care of your fam shard. despite any misgivings your mind might be screaming at you you've got a good handle on things i'm 37, married, and a parent. i feel like i'm still that little high school kid even though that hasn't been the case for 20 years. imposter syndrome is a gently caress.

Jesus adulting It sucks real bad sometimes! When we moved into our first house in Texas, my partner went back home for a week to visit her family. Then Hurricane Harvey hit Texas. Where we were in Austin didn't get slammed like a lot of other places did, but there I was alone in a brand new house for the first time trying to figure out what I'd do if everything went sideways and I had to figure out a way to keep the house/pets safe or whatever. Luckily some neighbors helped me keep the newly planted tree in our front hard from blowing out of the ground and to who knows where. But, I didn't sleep for probably 3 days and just kept moving into different rooms of the house where the wind wasn't as loud banging against the walls of the house. At least when we had The Ultimate Freeze a couple years back in Austin, we were there together so we could tackle things and prepare together but poo poo. It's all hosed up!

I feel like that 11th grader making movies with his friends after school still, walking around New Orleans, taking street cars to bodegas and local markets and that hasn't been the case for 20 years lol

You and I were getting hit by the same poo poo. I actually worked an emergency shelter for people fleeing from Harvey. Met a kid whos parents died and I had to help him get in touch with CPS so they could help get him in touch with family who was also missing. The winter event of 2020 knocked our poo poo down as well. Weather in the south got too spicy for me, that's why I went to the way up north: Indiana
