    “Finding more fallen-out hairs on your pillow, watching your favorite stuffed bread disappear from the convenience store. The accumulation of those little despairs is what makes a person an adult.”

    Never have I expected a quote from a battle shonen manga/anime to resonate with me this much. This one is from Jujutsu Kaisen.

      That’s really good and I want to add that in my experience finding humor somehow in the despairs or at least refusing to let yourself suffer is the true secret to getting older. Not that it’s easy and I certainly don’t have it all figured out but I do sincerely believe it’s important.

      I’m glad you said jjk… it would have driven me nuts today trying to remember where I know this from.

      It’s been on my mind too. Hidden Inventory is in limited run in theaters right now. I want to go, but hate crying in public.
