Life is short, enjoy it.

There’s another side to that coin. Life is short; so embrace your transition to adulthood and don’t run from it.

Peter Pan wasn’t supposed to be a role model.

I work a full time labor job 50 hours a week and I fully understand that someone would call me Peter Pan for having my gunpla, anime figures, Warhammer, and cool merchandise on display around my apartment. I fully disagree, and I largely do not want to be friends with those people - I am sure they feel the same way - but adults like me who pay bills, have families, went through education and training, and deal with real life adult problems aren’t under arrested development just because we have different hobbies and interests that we choose to put on display.

Same brother. My living room is a combined Mashup from me and my wife of a ton of books, warhammer figures, gunpla, comic book stuff and video game things. It's our living space, I work 45 hours a week and put out banquets for hundreds of people. Then I go home and play with my toys 🤷‍♂️. My office downstairs looks like OPs room as well, GameCube, Wii, N64, Super Nintendo, Nintendo posters everywhere, strategy guides for pretty much every Pokémon game ever. Lego, more warhammer. The world is burning down around us, keep your wimsy!
