your shitty past is what connects you to me, i don't regret what you went through
When I was your age I was about to finish my masters and just sort of aimlessly wasting time, as one does, looking for a job in my field where I studied. Since I had essentially no resume and awful interpersonal skills I faced zero luck in that department and got fed up with this situation and decided to move back with my parents back in my hometown. Took me next two years finishing up my thesis and getting anything "respectable-ish", time which I spent msotly losing my mind in even deeper social isolation and religiously playing obscure strategy computer games.
I realize this might not sound helpful, and is probably low on the list of thing-to-do in your situation, but it would be smart to go about it some other way.
Identify the thing you love doing - even if you think it can't be a career - IT CAN ! Follow your instinct on this and the next 3/4 years of your life will be amazing, you'll look back when you're 27/28 and say "Thank god I made that decision then and stuck to it". And even if things don't go the way you planned - you won't have nay regrets and you'll be much happier. Stagnation is a one way road to bitterness. P.S nobody has money at 24 - it's fine
Soon enough there'll be a war in the Middle East for you to die in. 3 years tops.
yeah i forgot about the war. OP just wait everything will be decided for you. Or maybe meet a nice hooker who can change your life idk im 34
Part of me think "what I would to to be 24 and have free time". And then I realize it is the same at 42 and I am still as free as I was then.
The answer is to just do something, anything, and to do it badly if need be rather than not doing it. By the time it's done I get a better sense of what I want and don't want to do and I'm on my way to the next thing.

is wrong
>Time IS running out.
is true. But time is always running out, that's the point. That's why it's never too old.

Lies. Being a deadbeat piece of shit never goes out of style
Don't listen to people in your 30s..... 24 IS OLD!! Time IS running out.
Well okay, 24 is young, but it is past your period of experimentation. You can no longer safely wait to start locking in on building a career, finding a nice girl to settle down with, getting in shape, whatever your priorities may be. If you want kids then you need to start laying those bricks now. Even if you don't, you may as well lay the bricks anyway.

Sure, but there are hard deadlines for
1. Fertility (~35)
2. SS Retirement (~67)
3. Death (?)
Soft deadlines at 30 and 40
Prevailing trend is to put off major life milestones to maximize extended adolescence. Nothing necessarily wrong with that, but it's higher risk than most people understand. What if your gf of four years breaks up with you at 32? You need cushion.

Right. You can't avoid these questions for sure. Or you learn that avoiding them is answering them.

my 23rd birthday was in every single way identical to this except with more empty beer cans on the floor. i found this so amusing that i couldn't even feel upset about it.

Some years ago—never mind how long precisely—having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me on shore, I thought I would sail about a little and see the watery part of the world. It is a way I have of driving off the spleen, and regulating the circulation. Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such an upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately stepping into the street, and methodically knocking people’s hats off—then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can. This is my substitute for pistol and ball. With a philosophical flourish Cato throws himself upon his sword; I quietly take to the ship. There is nothing surprising in this. If they but knew it, almost all men in their degree, some time or other, cherish very nearly the same feelings towards the ocean with me.
