Re: Max M/Lin A
Well, if I was going to be rude about it, I'd tell you, generally, you want to be in the low 40s, high 30s to chill, but not freeze. Just like some people might say there are ten years between 18 and 28. But, since I'm nice and never rude, I will tell you it largely entails drawing spacecats, attempts at tatebanko, learning how to make an appropriately bio-diverse vivaria using my shower and some cleverly appropriated, antique storm windows, stamp-collecting, watching the entirety of every TV show in a prime-time slot in 1987 (just generally; it could have started years before, for example), and playing hella Pokémon on my Gameboy.
Basically, it means I don't do shit. Find something interesting, that looks kind of difficult, do it until I'm good at it, get to like, 43°, move on. It's kind of fulfilling, actually. I'm a perfectionistic narcissist. I like being good at things. I can't decide if I should like, try to get a job or what, but tbh, I don't really miss it. I thought I would more than I do, I was so involved for so much of my (young, cool) life, but not really. I'd love for it to not be 2001, with the world still feeling the labor contractions of Y2K, but I am so not about to roll up into Marvel or DC. I was thinking of getting into programming. Like, what if I totally became a guru, yk? I'd be one of those cool Dot-Com Bubble people, only without losing all of the venture capital invested in my imaginary company.
