I live pretty rural so I just go outside and scream at the sky from my lawn.

I have a coworker who choose to live with his parents to help them as they get older and save on rent and I don't think any less of him. A lot of poeple could never live with thier parents as adults for many reasons, so they may be reacting to their idea of living with family.

I am over 40, and I still feel like I am winging it. As long as I can pretend to be an adult at work, and I can pay my bills, I don't care. It's coloring books and video games for me!

My issue is if you want to bike in the streetlike a car, then you have to obey car rules. Like stopping at stop lights and stop signs. If you want to ride on the sidewalk then you have to obey pedestrian rules, like crossing at the correct times. Thr number of cyclists I've seen blow through stop signs and stop lights is staggering.

Never, ever trust someone who tells you this. Insist on speaking to the wife first. This is the most classic lie to get some side action if you are already married.

It is good! I accidentally watched it on TV as a kid and was terrifed to watch it again until I was nearly thirty. Amazimg cinematography and made me sleep with the lights on as a child.

Networking. You need to find poeple who are doing the career that you want. Forums Facebook groups, Discord chats, LinkedIn, wherever your poeple are that's where you go. Join a group and see how other poeple are making this work.

I succeeded in my freelancing career by finding and working under some very good mentors. They gave me advice and when my skills developed enough, started tossing me some work and clients. It's possible, but it's work and requires a lot of soft skills.
