My 30s have been great so far, although I only have one more year left in them (omg). I certainly give way less fucks in constructive ways and way more fucks in positive ways. I’ve pared down my short list of friends to only be the people who “matter,” really learned how to (and how to be ok with) saying no to things…

So cool! I’ve always thought stained glass looked like fun.

I love that!!! Thank you!

I get it. My friends and I only make ‘ugh, millennials!’ comments when they’re watching a fucking live concert through their phones that are held up in the air, blocking everyone’s view, or at galleries and museums looking at the art and artifacts through their phones that are held up in the air, blocking everyone’s…

Yes! Just went on vacation with my mom and she took a picture of me. I was cringing anticipating how fat I would look in the picture (I put on a few pounds during my masters program), but instead I was like, “damn I look curvy!” It’s like the older I get, the more body confidence I get.

If you give few fucks now, you will have zero fucks left to give by the end of the next decade of your life. You will fully begin to know yourself. There may be some difficult, life-changing times, but you’ll learn so much about yourself and grow into your “you-ness.”

I did a few aerial yoga classes — they were really fun but physically challenging. The best parts were hanging upside down, and getting to just chill in the silks at the end.

Oh, I agree 100%! As a Generation X/Boomer, I was among the last to catch the wave of good jobs at good wages and a generally improving economy. You know, the way things were before the hyper-wealthy began taking all of the money and all of the globalization benefits and stuffing them into their pockets like so many…

I have no idea what happened to Gen Y, you have a great point! I’m a 70s baby, so I’m a bit older than you, but I do think the naming structure got sloppy in the 80s.

The 30s are an awesome decade. At some point in my 30s, my give-a-shitter broke, and I was free.

I’m making origami narwhals for the favors at my wedding. I have 2 weeks to make 55 of these suckers. Almost half done!

I thought I was going to be at the last of Gen X or the start of Generation Y, but they started calling us Millennials a few years ago. At least they stopped calling us the Pepsi Generation.

What everyone else said, plus I think the 30s are the most attractive, too. You aren’t all wrinkly but you also don’t like unformed clay the way the young uns do. (Also, you may start seeing early 20-somethings as unformed clay.)

Hi!! My current crochet blanket project... thats taking forever to finish. I only have one more blue/red panel then the white panel... then threading the blanket to give it a plaid look... overall a lot with only minimal motivation to finish. Mostly because its going to be a xmas gift so no need to rush.

My 30's, and even more so, my 40's were the prime of my life (so far). I’m 55 now and comfortably slipping into crone-hood, but those were some awesome freaking decades.

Are you kidding? The twenties kinda sucked. That youth all wasted on 20-year-olds.

Almost 39 here. Your 30s will be much better than your 20s. You finally stop trying to be an adult & realize you ARE an adult & can do whatever you want. Happy (upcoming) Birthday & rock that aerial yoga! Have a blast!

I LOVE BEING 32!! Thirty was good. Thirty-one was better. Thirty-two is best yet! My twenties were a shitshow and I feel so removed from them. I love getting older!!

Happy early birthday! I’m 41, and my thirties were the start of a truly amazing time in my life. The forties have (so far) been even better. As several people have mentioned, the not-giving-a-fuck starts shortly after the thirtieth birthday and just keeps going from there. I am now officially the mid-life lady that…

Hogwarts crest update. Slow going as usual, thanks to mini Ooki never wanting to sleep at reasonable hours.
