Gus, Barb & Jon are joined by James to put together some custom jigsaw puzzles in Tabletop Simulator while hanging with chat and bringing the vibe down to some proper chill levels we all need right now.
this is just what I need right now ❤ and talking of dumb films to be afraid of for one's age, I remember being like 7 or 8 and terrified of a film about bins and toilets eating people. it couldn't have been more jokey if it tried, and it frightened me to the point of tears 😂
I have to admit also that their analogy of them being on is like not knowing everyone at a party is a great analogy for their field of work. It makes you understand their point of view in the those kinds of situations.
i don't want kids myself but it's worth remembering if you do want them that the younger you have a kid the longer you have each other - my parents were late 30s/early 40s when they had me, and my mum passed away very suddenly in her 60s, and me in my early 20s. she never got to meet the real me, who's still emerging at 26. i feel like i lost her too young to know her properly, i wasn't grown up enough to appreciate and engage with her in a way that would satisfy me when genuinely grown up. obviously there's a crap ton of things to take into account before having a kid, but this one will affect my entire life. it's still surreal to be without her.
@volpeanon as someone who's parents also had them later on in life and is only 22 but her mom probably won't make it to the end of the year, I very much second this. I'm happy and so thankful for the time we had together (my dad would not have been able to handle my teenage years, lol), but I'm still figuring out who I want to be, I haven't even graduated college yet and I feel bad that she'll never get to know the people her kids turn out to be.
