I'm an assistant brewer that spends time in the production line when not brewing at a regional brewery in the south east. So lots of hot sweaty work in non air conditioned building, I don't need a gym membership. Currently trying to find myself a new hobby since I turned my last one (home brewing) into a career. Looking at blacksmithing, leathercraft or chain maille. Passably all three.

As a brewer this makes me happy. Currently we dump what yeast is not transferred out to the next tank, I would be curious to see their plan on how to harvest it and store it.

But that's what your money is for right out of school, go experience the world. You'll make more. After high school I had no idea what I wanted to do. Worked for a while, moved halfway across the US for a year at one point and then moved back. I spent a good number of years working jobs to make money to experience things. Now in my mid 30s I've finally landed in a career I can see myself doing for decades. I would never have found it if I hadn't gotten all the experience everywhere else.

First thing you need is a job. You need a job for money, money to do things. You need money so you can go out and experience the world. If it sounds even kinda interesting and you have the funds, your going. Road trips, adventure travel, random classes at a craft store, anything. The key is the more things you do the more you'll learn about yourself, and the better you know that guy the easier it will be to find some kind of direction in your life.

I'm with you there, I see it as inevitable that something sentient and intelligent would evolve on this planet, it's luck that it was humans.

The quoted part you posted is the only interesting thing in the article. I can't think of a single person I know that doesn't at least somewhat like the color blue. Granted we are made mostly of water and on this planet our large bodies of it appear blue. The rat of the article seems add though it was written to satisfy a word count.

All these comments and no mention of Madonna doing American Pie? Does not compute.

At 68.33 for both masculine and feminine and 55 neutral it seems rather spot on for me. The side of myself that shows up for a given situation is mostly dependant on what it is and who is around as well as what is trying to be accomplished.

The darkness is fear, use love to keep it at bay.

Knowing myself, there will never be a way to say that. I'm always finding new things to get excited about and learn. I'll probably learn something in 20 years and think "Why didn't I get involved in this sooner? "

I am from and live just north of Atlanta in the US. I am a very recent reddit influx, trying to figure this all out.
