Starting to wonder why it’s even legal for me to just... do stuff without supervision.

@girlonthenet Adults should be responsible for the adulting.
@feijoa exactly. Can’t be trusting me with it.

Every now and then the shock of adulthood hits me and I get this weird vertigo. Like I just realised I’m in a life boat adrift on an infinite ocean.
@girlonthenet Every now and then, just doing a mental list of people I know, friends and relations and the horrid realization hits like a tidal wave... I'm the adultiest adult that I know in my life.
Sheer horror. -

@girlonthenet I bought a fucking TABLE SAW and nobody even asked me if I was sure

@girlonthenet I'm 55 and my brain is still 23. I've brought two kids up by making it up as I went along, and they're now reaching the point I was at when my brain ceased further development.
How is that allowed? There must be a law against it!

@ifixcoinops that is horrifying, you could have someone’s eye out.

@girlonthenet The really REALLY big one is when the midwife waves bye-bye to you in the maternity hospital car park.
"WTF are we supposed to do now?" was our response.

@ifixcoinops @girlonthenet see this bullshit? this driver license? this gives me authority to operate motor vehicles at speeds exceeding 100 kilometers *per hour*.
honestly what the fuck, I got tested once 30 years ago and it's just been "ohhh hey do this administrative thing every time you move across an arbitrary line on the map or 4 years pass"

@girlonthenet I've been an adult now for 4 decades, and I still get that feeling...

@rey @ifixcoinops cannot believe this is allowed. Someone should look into it, but who? I’m starting to think we’re all children all the way down

@girlonthenet I have a story about that table saw and my genitals if you'd like to either laugh or make the
face -

we used to laugh about things that said "requires adult supervision". not as funny when you start to accept that you are now adult supervision.

@girlonthenet one time they put me in a ROOM and I had to talk to a CLIENT and it was a big IMPORTANT thing and they expected ME to explain it! I’m 12!!!

@girlonthenet a question I still ask all the time, and I'm fifty-mumble.
Then I look at everyone else in charge and think well I'm not *that* useless.
anyway I've just done my nails for the weekends race, so I'm good.
