Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 2 days ago100% same. I’m the built-in babysitter for family events. Why would I want to hear my aunt ask for the 500th time why I’m not married, when my nephews and nieces are playing out a story where Bluey and Sonic the Hedgehog team up to fight crime? Screw boring grown-up talk, I want the imaginative adventure.

I 100% believe the moment we try to pretend we aren’t children anymore is the moment we deny a huge chunk of what makes us human.
Not to mention a HUGE mistake logistically speaking, because it also means that we wouldn’t be working with the actual data. We don’t lose who we’ve been, it constantly gets incorporated into who we’re becoming. Those kids we used to be are still there, alive and well (and probably sobbing in a corner for a friggin’ crumb of honest, carefree enjoyment of, like, anything!) and all we do is to try to bury them deeper and deeper, until we can’t hear those sobs anymore.

Not drag’s inner child. Drag’s inner child is so wild and free that other adults have to pick up the slack of repressing drag. It doesn’t work. No matter how many times they say dragons don’t exist, drag still gets to go home and play with a dragon.
