    Yep

    I read an article saying that as an adult you stop doing as many unique and memorable things as an adult. It’s mostly the same places, people and things. So when you go do different things and make memories, you’ll have more “milestones” in your life

      As a child then every year is purposefully pointed out. School education years, birthdays, clothes for your age, siblings being older/younger.

      As an adult when you stop paying careful attention then time all merges into one mass. Age doesn’t really matter much and certainly isn’t pushed in your face constantly. It’s easy to keep doing repetitive things at work and home and before you know it then another 4 years go by without you keeping track. I did a job with a very extended period of postgraduate training (10 years). Then again there was a constant interest in your year of training and what stage you are at. Even other events in life are better bookmarked (that happened when I was in year 5 of my training).

      If you’re more mindful of the time, then it seems to pass more slowly and is better delineated.

      That’s why, in every new place I get, I strip naked and run around shouting GERONIMOOOO

    Yeah, but some of y’all get a family/families in that blink. Well, some even strat wars or enshitify a whole industry. Anyway, the moral eco-friendly thing is to just have the eyes closed & not move for that time.
