I’m just here to try to reach the geeky kids, maybe LGBTQIA, maybe alt, maybe on the spectrum, maybe just a little weird - and tell them that you can be 40 and have a Star Wars living room, and you can decide to not have kids and still have a life full of meaningful relationships and not regret it at all, and you can be a gamer and learn work skills from it, and you can be single but still do everything and travel the planet, you can be covered in tattoos and piercings and still be a successful business leader & public speaker, you can know trans rights are human rights and still be retired from the military, you can do whatever you want to as long as you show up every day and put in the work and put up a good fight - don’t let the people around you, society, your family, crappy friends, lousy spouses, what “they” told you, or the entropy of it all drag you down. Life can be really unfair, but learn your own personal battles, find your own family, and find meaning in the goofy world.

The jet just took off! Have a good flight...
