Whats your advice to the younger folks of Lemmy?
Mine: Learn a second language and keep up with the language your parents speak. You will regret being a brat about not wanting to speak this language especially as your family members pass. The only opinions about you that really matter are from the people you respect and who respect you back Being a kind humble person, who leads their political convictions with curiosity and not self righteousness is important. As that one person said: "I am no hero and neither are you." Don’t throw out your old media (mix cds, tapes, records, photos, zinee, etc) because you think they’re embarrassing. They either will not be embarrassing later or they will become expensive and you can tell them for mad bucks.

1.) If you think you’d be happier living somewhere else, start putting things into motion now. Moving is hard, but it’s harder when you’re older. 2.) If you’re depressed, working out will not make your depression worse. It’s supposed to help. Give it a shot. Don’t forget. 3.) Don’t have kids. 4.) Don’t date people that you think are dumb, even if they’re incredibly attractive.

I absolutely agree that many people should not have kids, and nobody should feel pressured to do so, and everybody should think twice before they do if it really is what they want and they are ready for that. But as “general advice”? Sorry, but this is ridiculous. Saying this as a fucking exhausted parent of a baby. It is hard, but absolutely no regrets here. Of course if you value your own free time and activities above everything else, then yes, definitely please do not have kids. There will be no time for anything but baby care and the bare minimum household maintenance for a long time.
