Whether it be fame, fortune or power- each arm carries a burden equal to its might.

The younger you are, the less prepared you are to handle such high expectations that most people will never experience personally in their lives or share a part of across generations .

By time they reach their mid to late twenties, they've accomplished more in their formative and young adult years than was expected - without any reprieve from it . Unequipped to maintain themselves and their relentless success, they die early from a Molotov cocktail of things like burnout , dependency , depression and physical exhaustion .

My apologies for mixing paraphrasing and aphorisms, but it's the easiest way for me to explain things in short without writing an entire essay or documentary within a Fediverse post However, the best way for such individuals to succeed and live- is to regularly fail. Putting yourself into the spotlight is the prime environment for long-term failure via short-term success. Keeping yourself distant from those who seek you out only for what you do will give you at least a little room to breathe and try to live a life outside of whatever skill or talent someone wants to replace your humanity with as an icon.

@acjay
You and I have opposing LinkedIn experiences. Also, finding content on Fediverse is restricted to searches and hashtags- which isn't half bad imo

@acjay

A lot can be said with 65,535 characters. I've never gone near maxing that out.

@acjay

Aphorisms are just paraphrasing a long, elaborate series of required factors to occur within a function in order to produce a comparatively simplified equation.

Each individual that has fallen under the previously mentioned group had been subjected to similar circumstances in comparison to to their contemporaries that actually walked entirely different paths. By delving deep into each individuals personal life and trying to hypothesize missing personal information, one can start to draw similarities between them with little creative work.

Slightly tangent here, how familiar are you to burnout and gaslighting? Looking back at (geniuses, savants, etc.), it's often speculated that a significant amount of burden occurs privately without exterior notice, only to increase exponentially as such individuals become more prominent.

Becoming a licensed gunsmith doesn't sound hard- but its probably a lot of b.s.

@acjay
There's a saying that relates a person's life to a candle. In such cases as you indicated, they were bright flames that burnt too quickly.

@nomi
You can't see the bottom, though.

@nomi
At least you're no longer alone.

I don't believe it- you'll instead become a martyr for a cause you just discovered needed to be advocated for!

@esheep @ocean
You must be a professional adjudicator. Do you offer university classes on adjudicating ?

@w
This assumes you're all people.

I can't reassociate Rasputin quickly again after having this burned into my brain
