Everyone thinks you’re supposed to feel like you do as a youth. They spend their whole life chasing the simple thrills they did as teens, listening to the same songs, watching the same media, playing the same franchises, and trying every drug under the sun to match that high mother nature granted when they were seventeen and horny.
“Creators” are particularly susceptible because they’re forever chasing the elusive “on” when they’re performing at their peak, entertaining and likable. Constant fear of falling from relevance, watching their audience leave them w/ $150/month and a gaping hole in their work history
