This is so true. My parents kept going to the native casino during Covid. Now they’re at a music festival with their friends. They are 74.
Meanwhile, I’m so tired from all my responsibilities that I mostly just collapse at night.

Aristocratic tutors also.
Homeschool Teacher/Tutors where I live are making $300 an hour and are so booked up that they won’t take new clients.
Huge demand for this from parents dissatisfied with public schools, but lacking in private school options.

When they first moved to WPB, he toured my daughter’s middle school in south Florida as an option, and it’s specifically for kids with neurodivergence, but above average IQ. Don’t think they would have toured it if this wasn’t his situation.

Is there a name for the syndrome where whenever you’re about to take a vacation you have the urge to bring 800 projects, write a novel, and read 10 books during your short trip?
Is this an ADHD thing?
Why do we think a vacation means weird, unrealistic creative pursuits?

Now they are enjoying their lives way more too, because they were even being stingy with themselves.

This is what happens when people dehumanize others with labels like “Karens.”
All one needs to study is the Rwandan genocide to understand why the mass adoption of derogatory labels specifying race, regardless of the hierarchy in place, lead to mob violence.

Colleen Hoover is 42. She’s outselling every other author in the entire world and people of all ages adore her books.
Don’t let anyone degrade you for being a “middle-aged woman.”

I find it frustrating that agents don’t provide any success metrics of past financials or deal info. How can I know who to query if I can’t actually see the amounts they helped the authors take or the percentages etc.?
Even with a hit book, the numbers could be off.

I got to see the first two episodes of 1899 in the movie theater last year as part of TIFF and I was like holy shit, every big budget Netflix show should do a theater run, because the sound and visuals were absolutely incredible on the big screen.
Since Oppenheimer and Barbie are getting nothing but good reviews….
What’s the best movie you’ve watched in theaters and you thought to yourselfthis is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen?

How about the fact that agents won’t show potential clients their success metrics or sales figures.
Maybe some will, but all the ones I’ve asked said they would not.
Imagine looking for a real estate agent and they won’t show you past sales… not a good sign.

Even the things that feel the most urgent can usually wait.
Make something creative first.
The point is to be able to say to yourself, even for five minutes, “Hark! I am a creator, not just a janitor of bullshit! Here is proof that I can—and will!—do more than just manage minutiae… ”

These should both be available over the counter. Ridiculous how intensely they’re controlled in the US, yet alcohol is so easy to get.
Both Ritalin and modafinin are arguably much safer to use, harder to abuse, and less addictive than alcohol.

Instead of removing blocking, Twitter should lean in and add a “blocked by” count next to followers and following.
