    Patrick Stewart would’ve been 46-47 when filming the first season of TNG, and Wil Wheaton is now 53, so yeah quite a bit older

          Everyone keeps telling me “oh, the thirties hit hard. OH THE FORTIES HIT HARD. OH THE FIFTIES HIT HARD” like, maybe your body just keeps accruing these little aches and pains that never go away and it starts to suck, and the fifties are when a lot of people realize that? is that it or is there something else I’m missing

            Thirties were my best years so far. I was fit as fuck. Zero aches. Earning good money. Travelling. Loving relationship. Kids rolling in while I still had the energy for them. Good times.

            Not sure how old you are but if you look after your body, your body will look after you.

            Nearly 50 now and the old man aches are creeping in though.

            Thirties do not hit hard. Thirties are your prime. How young are you??

            There are indeed periods of your life where your body is relatively stable, and others where it changes rapidly. Late 40s-early 50s are like a second puberty, in all the worst ways.

        An eighth of one’s lifespan up to that point, seems a fair bit to me but then I’m a bit younger than either of them 🤷

          I’m younger than both too, but it’s more for me that the last decade seems like a week. My perception of time got so fuckity.
