Youth is wasted on the young- it really is! I wish I’d had my current mindset when I was in my prime but I didn’t, and whenever I think about regrets, I think of all those ‘Sliding Doors’ moments and how even the smallest and most innocuous decision could have taken me down a different path, and I might not have everything that I value in my life rn. (sure I might have preferred to have dodged a few bullets too, but that’s what makes us who we are.)

Weirdly liberating for me so far in some ways. The thought of “oh man all this stuff I haven’t done by 25” was getting me down, but then I reached 25, wasn’t dead, and realised I could so stuff I wanted with less of that dumb self imposed pressure.

On the other hand, I think I’m sadder as a general rule but probably also more compassionate (internally more so admittedly than outwardly). Still a bit of a dickhead and still as ludicrously childish as ever for big chunks of the time.

Can’t act all hoity toity and enlightened when I know full well that I spent over and hour using a two monitor computer to draw an MS Paint replica of the first monitor on the second monitor within the last, say, two years

I hit menopause and suddenly I’m crying at everything. It’s embarrassing.

It’s all so arbitrary and influenced by shitty pressures during upbringing etc but I feel like 40 is the absolute cutoff for finding love/a job/starting anything new.

Love life sadness occasionally as well, dunno if it’ll be “this’ll be nice in the future” or if I’ll just rattle on wondering what the deal with that sorta thing is

I bought a strat at 19 after dropping out of university with the rest of my student loan money so that’s not an old man thing

I’m already a crybaby, I’m dreading this. I’m ‘only’ 43 but my mum was peri by my age and done by 52. (no HRT either- she was bananas to be around for the best part of a decade.)

Still think I’m like 21 in my head, just more knackered.
