We’re not going to lie to each other, adult life is still a lot of shit. You have to fill out tax forms, go shopping every day, or even give up small pleasures like being able to watch cartoons from the 2000s without being judged. But the hardest step is certainly that of accepting the fact that many things that made us happy before now give us more than sadness. Frankly, if that’s growing up, I’d rather go back to the belly of my reum.
