Frontal lobes are cool but all that white matter you grow in your 30s is where the good shit happens

No, it's when you become aware of too much shit and enter the next level of needing to learn more coping skills. It's like suddenly growing legs and realizing there's a whole world out there and people who never grew legs are like woah miss bigshot with her LeGssss ooooo so SpEcIaL think you're so FaNcY so WoKe and then form an army of undeveloped against you and they win and you just facepalm for eternity as you scrounge for ways to help them grow legs but they now think growing legs gives you autism or something stupid.

Ignorance is bliss is no understatement. I'm so tired.

Despite the snarky response you got from someone else, yes, white matter grows in your 30s. Gray matter is what makes the thoughts white matter is the highway they use to get around, so white matter actually has a very significant impact on the brain. It’s being considered as a possible cause so many people have a “mid life crisis” because their brains are actively changing how they think and connect things together
