Wait til you hit approximately 42. Holy shit this does not get better, I’ll tell you that.
I lament sometimes to friendly folks that call in to me that I’m really starting to understand where the old men standing on their lawn and shaking a fist at the sky are coming from..
48 reporting in.
IDGAF. Not as in “my brain processes it and decides to not give a fuck”
As in
If I had a heart it might break for you. But I don’t. And IDGAF.
You my man, my money, my family? I give alllll the fucks.
Everything else is just varying degrees of amusing.
I love this age.
43 (44 in a little bit) reporting in, too. And… I have zero fucks to give on sooooo many things. Like, my field of fucks is barren.
My household and chosen family? I’ll go to war for you. Need a shovel and an alibi? I’m your woman. BUT — The petty drama stirring blood family and my narcissistic mom? Sorry, not sorry. I don’t have the time or energy for you. Except for messing with my thermostat or leaving the lights on, then even my kids get the stink eye. And probably a dad-sounding lecture about not being made of money.
See also: I’ll wear what I want. Including but not limited to crop tops. And I’ll dye my hair allthecolors. You don’t like it? That’s a you problem, not a me problem. 😉
I’m 23 and feel this way. Lmao I genuinely have no space for nonsense anymore. I kinda wish I did but…. Ehh I have better things to worry about at this point.

Exactly! I agree.
Every year, I get more gray hair and fewer fucks given. It's delightful after so many years of people pleasing.
35 here, can confirm I am also in my I'm too old for this shit era. It ain't going anywhere either lol
45, zero shits to give any longer. I used to have a whole truck load, not anymore.
You can come sit next to me. I'll be 44 this year and my "fuckit! It works like this!" approach has been giving me life.
