…what If I’m Happy With Staying In My Little Cosy Room? The Club Metaphor Can Be Off-putting / Hard

…what if I’m happy with staying in my little cosy room? The club metaphor can be off-putting / hard to understand for neurodivergent people and people from different cultures. Maybe it’s hard for some western people to imagine that some immigrants like me need to learn from media and remind ourselves that parties really mean fun stuff, not stress-inducing, awkward, and boring chaos.

“she should be at the club” “but not everybody can handle loud music / likes going out / enjoys drinking / wants to—“ YOURE MISSING THE POINT. “she should be at the club” is not about the literal club!! it’s about the whimsy of youth!! it’s about the things you can get away with, body and mind!! it’s about having fun and ignoring the horrors for as long as you can!! it’s about the fact that you do not deserve to feel this pain and have these responsibilities, you do not deserve to be locked in your room with your sadness, you deserve to enjoy the music and the pretty lights and the ass shaking of life!!! it’s about how i wish joy for you, even if you do not wish it for yourself!!! you should be at the club!!!!
