I'm am withheld by capitalism from making the choices I want.

The problem is now that I can afford to do whatever I want, sleep whenever I want, and eat whatever I want, my body can’t afford to.

Get some more reps in, you’ll hopefully be able to work out a way you can want to take care of your body. This will then in turn allow you to do eat sleep whatever you want.

Honestly being in my 30s is pretty great.

Ain't it good?

And yet people will still treat you like a naive kid if you deviate from the norm too much.

It took me years before realizing I needed to change how I ask questions to college admissions. I did 15 years of compulsory education for nothing because I was held to a lower standard then I even tested for. Being railroaded into CC because of that was not something I was willing to do when I finally got legal agency.

Despite making it very clear that I would rather redo 4 years of high school then do 2 years of college, no one suggested I just redo the CC classes at a 4 year. I had to be in a particularly undiplomatic mood to insist that I was asking a policy question, not a life advice question when I inquired if it was possible to redo classes I already got credits for.
