I recently turned forty after only twenty-six years of living on Earth. what made me realize this was this t-shirt I found exploring an antique mall. the decision to be born was made in my absence but I was still enthusiastic about it.

In other words, being 30. Feels good to be a grown up.

30, 40, 50 — they’re nothing like how they looked when I was a kid!
Part of this I attribute to the Internet and feeling much more aware of or connected to the younger worlds than I otherwise would be. Plus I have no kids and few responsibilities.
I remember when my dad turned 40 and we had a party for him being “Over the Hill” with black balloons and stuff lol

I’m very excited about it and it just feels right. I think women start reaching their peak hotness at age 40 and then continue to age like fine wine so I’m looking forward to that too. My plan is to start seriously attempting to grow up in some ways but we’ll see how that goes; I’m probably just going to extend my adolescence in other ways because I have the freedom to do that. Mostly I just keep thinking about how when I was a kid who were 30 seemed so OLD but to be fair it’s not my fault they were like balding. Or like I keep seeing that people I know from high school are parents or watching things and being shocked that the mom characters are my age 🤡 but I don’t know it honestly feels pretty meaningless and arbitrary to me to mark and judge my life using age as a measurement

I recommend taking the opposite of an ‘everything shower’ where you just get in and out of the water, maybe after a run or a workday or just when you need to feel wet

it’s like hey but that’s what i’m doing right now! comparable experiences include driving a car past a car dealership & having sex behind a sex store
