    I can’t remember if it’s pseudoscience or actually validated (we’ll assume pseudo), but I’ve come across it many times: there’s a running commentary in psychological development that only 33% of humans ever reach mental maturity, true adulthood. The vast majority land at adolescence ans stay there, with some never getting much past 12. To me, this has been the single greatest explanation of why ppl behave the way they do, somewhat comforting at least
