I haven't had kids 'cause I gave up on relationship drama long
   ago. Not that I won't try again in the future if I feel like it,
   but I don't care if my genetic materials spreads far and wide or
   even anywhere; part of my genetic material is in every human
   that ever lived or will live. I'm just part of some kind of
   weird, broken symmetrical continuum of "human".

   At the same time, I've always been surrounded by kids of some
   kind. Nieces and nephews and such. They seem to like me. Cats do
   too. I know it sucks to be a human on this planet and it's tough
   yet it also has its good parts, and I talk at length but more or
   less simply. I don't know why cats like me. I just treat them
   how they want to be treated I guess.

   I've also taken one of those long-winded career tests years
   ago... had stuff like psychologist, rabbit/priest/minister,
   coach, guidance counselor showing up in the top 10... but #1
   "Middle School Teacher, Special Ed" and in the description
   explained that it means both gifted students and so-called
   "slower" students.

   So, that explains it to me. I get along with with ppl who are in
   transitional periods of their life... which is, well, anybody
   who is seeking answers and searching far and wide for them.

   Thankfully they're careers I _could_ start at any point in life.
   Once I'm dead, ok, too late then, but if I really wanted to, I
   could. It's just school and looking for a job and time and
   money, but any of those things are possible.

   But if I decided "ok, a mate would be nice", and ended up with
   kids of my own, I'd be ok with that too. Or adoption. Or foster
   kids. Or none. Doesn't matter really to me. I'm just here.
