    Hmmm… I guess… I don’t know though, I don’t think I like that very much. I feel like that’s part of the problem, actually… It’s not so much about being myself—I don’t think that’s the issue—it’s that I want to relate.

    It’s not that I want to have their problems; I just want us to have the same problems.

    I’m also very weary about Internet drama.

    Yup, I’m with you on that. I do think it’s a little funny, sometimes. I don’t actively keep up with anything, but the YTrs I like occasionally make videos about that stuff, so I end up being in the loop.

    You know, at first I also didn’t like Louis very much, but I ended up sticking around and he grew on me.

    Ah see, I don’t know about this… I feel like there’s plenty of people out there that seem very disingenuous, but they’re just weird or awkward or just in showbiz, and that’s just what they do.

    I don’t know…

    Thanks for your comment!

    Maybe you’re right… Well, you’re certainly right that it’s hard to have these conversations. Even over here in Portugal, though it’s a different political climate… It feels like people have stopped putting themselves in other’s shoes.

    Unrelated, but your username means “tooth milk” in Portuguese. Or “milk tooth,” I guess. Cool!

    I don’t know about that… We have terrible relationships with basically everyone outside of my grandma and my grandpa, who’s already passed. I’ve never met basically anyone, and the ones I have all I’ve heard about them are things about how they stole or lied to us, or tried to kill my grandpa over property disputes, and how my grandma was stuck in court for decades over that, while my grandpa rot away in a hospital bed.

    Whenever my grandma talks about her childhood it’s always some of the most horrible things I’ve ever heard, all born of abject poverty, and how she cut ties with her family.

    So, on that side, we don’t really have a family history to speak of, other than brothers shooting each other and sisters stealing from each other.

    I’ll think about it though, I guess there’s always the chance I just never asked the right questions to hear something even remotely pleasant…

    Thanks for the reply!

    I see, I see… I can’t really say I see that too much, since I don’t have that many people in my life in advanced age to compare. From what you’re saying though, it seems to be a pretty clear causal relationship of healthy choices over a lifetime leading to better health in old age. Not exactly shocking, but it’s pretty crazy you can see it so clearly in your family.

    Oh, and my mom looks easily ten years younger than her actual age and absolutely could kick my ass.

    Well, don’t give her a reason!
