What Does it Feel Like to Retire?
Hopefully, a year spent with physical and social limitations might ease your transition to retirement, when one has more opportunity for reflection and a stunning reduction of required activity.

Daddy’s gotcha, daddy’s here, see? Nothing to worry about, not as long as your dad is there to catch you…
#cosmo cosma#peri cosma#fairly oddparents#fop#fop a new wish#spoilers#poof cosma#listen I know technically Cosmo and Wanda are the same visual age they’ve always been because they’re magic but you cannot stop me from want#wanting to give them wrinkles and receding hairlines. they wanna play middle aged retirees they’re gonna look it#also for the curious my main art references were actual photos of my actual sister and her actual babies#and that one Ivan the Terrible painting lmao#cy art#cy fanart#we’re just gonna ignore all the times Cosmo literally didn’t catch Peri lol#broke 100

All my horrible little sons are growing pretty well. There is still one upper house that needs prepped to move some of the little ones to for space and then that's all the space we've got. Somehow I think I've pulled off the logistics of fitting nearly 6000 poinsettias in the space I have to grow them. But now we'll have to see how they finish growing and then how many we end up selling.
#the selling part is giving me particular anxiety#because our new retail manager is still learning the ropes and office manager has not yet dealt with poinsettia season orders#and i spend all my time keeping the bastards alive and organized#and there are so many. there are so so many#and there are so so many furnaces on their last breath#and my crew is several part time retirees who misunderstand every other word i say#and the retail crew is all teenagers with little plant knowledgw#greenhouse content

i think my fave dumb live sports commentator thing is where they gotta pepper their soliloquies with random "{worst, best} [adjective] [adjective] [noun] since [year]" facts, eg "packers's worst five game start since 2012", because with the correct carefully-chosen adjectives you can generate a shocking-sounding stat from literally anything
#insert relevant xkcd comic here#anyway i'm checking out the neighborhood bar in my new neighborhood and it is: good#moody twentysomething reading franz fanon in one corner#couple of ladies at the bar full on making out with each other you go ladies#retirees reminiscing on their youth in another corner#heard three different languages tonight and the bartender is fluent in all of them#(i of course am Posting)

I gotta say, really glad that the main criticisms for my "artists have more options" post has been that it is very USA centric and doesn't work for people in low populated areas without an art community. This has led to people giving more perspectives and options, which is always appreciated, and also because it's a completely correct criticism. Like yeah it is in fact made from the perspective of a USAmerican who lives in a highly populated state with a thriving art community especially in rural areas, you got me there, can't argue with that, gimme some fresh perspectives I love to hear that. Thank you for not making my notifications hell, and thank you for giving me more perspectives im going to give you a little kissy on the forehead
#simon says#i was worried that since it hit 10k notes#I was gonna deal with a lot of people with low confidence getting mad at me bc 'they are too much of a failure to do this how dare you'#but im so glad because it hasn't been that#it has been people bringing up good counterpoints and perspectives I appreciate hearing!#like yeah I knew it was gonna end up being US (and probably Canada) centric because I'm American and never left the country before#so my perspective on career artistry outside the country is very VERY limited to say the least#but I didn't even consider that my perspective is also skewed by where in the US I live#I live in Florida which I mentioned before and feel safe mentioning because it's a very populated state#and a majority of the economy is tourism based#so there's a pretty huge thriving art community here because there's LOTS of people visiting who want cool art for whatever reason#and LOTS of retirees with money to spend and a new florida house to decorate#and LOTS of college age kids without money but an apartment they wanna furnish so they'll buy art anyways#shows and shops and gallery work are huge here for a reason#5 percent of the entire population are snowbirds. people from the north who live here during the winter#so needless to say it's far easier to start making art selling prints and handmade magnets at a booth for a weekend event here in Florida#compared to say... rural Nebraska#so I didn't even consider that because my journey as an artist started in a state with a small but passionate and growing art community#and my journey as a PROFESSIONAL artist started in another state that has a large and thriving art community even in rural areas#that it would absolutely have an effect on my perspective#i still believe there's always more options out there than you would believe and it's always good to explore and look#and if you're able to start building an art scene in a place that doesn't have one you should#but I definitely understand some folks better when they say that it's not always accessible to do so#art careers are not about fame or social media following but rather networking I still believe that because it's true#but yeah if you're in an area where your only option IS to sell online there's no shame in that#anyways hopefully that was coherent I just woke up from a nap and now im gonna play Frog Detective for the first time#smooching you all on the foreheads gently and lovingly thank you for opening my mind and not making my inbox hell

Of course there were protests in several cities also today against the horrible conditions for retirees under Iran's theocracy, as there are every day now and as have been ongoing for several years, while the pensioners literally can't afford to put decent food on their tables.
Here's one arbitrary video from today out of many, via JinHA, the Women's News Agency.
That particular one was with/for retired teachers in Kermanshah, western Iran.

Describe to someone who has never been in love, what it feels like when you have, at long last, found your soul mate. Describe to someone about to give birth, the first feelings that flood you when you become a parent for the first time. Describe to someone the pain of losing a loved one, when that moment is completely unexpected. Can someone accurately explain to another, what it will feel like to wake up one morning, and be retired from the full-time world of work? What will it feel like every day that first year, when just about everything familiar about your waking hours has changed?

None of them are gonna be physically violent
The Reddit users are going to judge you if you express any religious or “unscientific” sentiment
The Catholics run the gamut from “hardcore pro-lifer” to “Nun who invented communism”
The Protestants have brought lots of food but are going to proselytize the entire time you eat
The crystalists are split 60/40 on whether or not vaccines cause autism, and you don’t know who has the majority until you’ve been there an hour
The Anglophiles have good pastries, but 1/3 of them are in Sherlock cosplay
The girlbosses are all within 10° to the left of the center of the political spectrum and will try very hard to get you to invest in their MLM
The vegans brought food but will turn hostile if you let slip that you’ve used animal products in the last year
The reenactors have booze, but your phone is dead and they’re giving a very pro-America history lecture
The influencers have a pool, a jacuzzi, and lots of drugs, but they have a combined net worth that teaches seven digits and won’t let you forget it
The retirees have great weed but they’re gonna ask you a lot of invasive questions and give you a lot of unsolicited advice.
