I’m turning 30 tomorrow, and in my mind, it feels like such a huge milestone. I know, logically, that 30 isn’t old by any stretch of the imagination, but for some reason, it feels like youth is officially over. I’m curious how you felt about it.

At least for me, turning 30 felt liberating in a sense. You’re not really described as young anymore, and expectations of you are different.
I still care about social issues but I don’t feel pressured to be militant about them, and even if someone tried to exert that pressure I wouldn’t care. I can just say I’m tired if I don’t wanna do something and that’s considered a valid reason.
Dating? So much less pressure. I know who I am and what I want, as do others in their 30s. You figure out if you’re a good match pretty quickly.
Sure, it takes longer to bounce back from injuries, hangovers, etc and the simple act of getting up makes more snaps, crackles, and pops than a bowl of Rice Krispies. But overall it feels like I can live my life the way I want to and nobody cares. And that is a good feeling.
News are still talking about how “millenial children are killing the diamond industry.”
they are starting to shift the blame to genz now.
