before having a baby, I thought it sucked that babies took so long to turn into interesting people. "good for people who like babies but I'm not one of them. I want a child who can tell me her theories. etc"

but now I have a baby I feel no hurry at all?? she's great as she is

"vaccines cause autism" okay well they don't, autism is a developmental disorder, but y'know what?

Measles, Mumps, and a bunch of other diseases can cause death, suffering, and lifelong disability, and that is something we actually know for real, confirmed by actual doctors and also various people with eyeballs instead of a huckster who lost his license with massive conflicting interests and bad research standards.

Even if there was any evidence (there is not) that my brain is a little funny because of childhood vaccination I would 10/10 full throatedly endorse getting shots anyway because the most debilitating possible manifestations of autism are still not god damn measles.

I'm being incredibly normal about Power Wash Simulator considering the amount of lore it actually has.

Anyway here's my take on the protagonist's vibes.

The thing about this, IMO, is that as you grow older you become more actively responsible for your environment (generally. some people already are from a young age). So the reason why coffee tables and vacuums are exciting is because you are going to be in a position to evaluate if the coffee table is doing it for you or not.

This was super exciting for me to realize because as a neurodivergent person there's a lot of mundane stuff that can grate on me, but in the past I've considered it in a sort of 'that's life', when I don't actually have to.

So maybe you as an adult pick out a coffee table because its glass top is super easy to wipe clean and because that means its undershelf can be used to hold a bunch of fun things that you can look at and be happy with. Maybe you as an adult pick out a vacuum that you stick googly eyes onto and it's lighter and easier to handle and you can finally get that spot under your couch.

These things are additive. They become exciting because they show you that you have more control over your environment than previously.

It's not just NOT 'proof you're becoming boring', but it is proof that you have more control over your life and get to choose what it means.

advice i think we should tell children is that when adults say stuff like ‘now that i’m an adult i get really excited about stuff like coffee tables and bathrooms and rugs etc’ they don’t mean ‘and now i don’t care about blorbo and squimbus from my childhood tv shows anymore’ bc your average adult still loves all the same pop culture stuff they always did; they just have a greater appreciation for the mundane as well. growing up just means you can enjoy life twice as much now. you can get really excited about a new stuffed animal AND about a new kitchen sponge. peace and love
