For fuck's sake
When you enter adulthood, you learn how to manage yourself, so that - within your abilities - you handle your own shit in a way that is sensitive to the people around you. You don't hide your problems from yourself; you ask for the help you need; you give the help that you see is needed.

And if you learn to do that, if you ascend to the apex of that lofty peak of self actualization? You don't get a *fucking cookie*.
All you get is a life filled with people who might do more than grudgingly tolerate your presence, and who have a better life because you helped them make it that way.

@gnomon Maybe my privilege is showing but I've known how to make a whole tray of cookies to share since I was a little kid. I reject this cookie-less self actualization.
