You don't have to work out, but at least keep your joints and tendons well stretched and limber. Working out is nice, though.
Also its never too late to do pretty much anything. Learn to draw, take a saxophone lesson, become an accountant. Career changes and new hobbies aren't just for young people

Those who are 35+, what advice do you have for people just entering their 30s?

feeling nervous about this one, friends! I've written about the mainstreaming of pull-to-publish, its impact on fandom, and what it means for an increasingly corporate and IP-driven creative landscape.

Having Polygon and Giant Bomb both gutted on the same day is truly heartbreaking. Wild how Vox and Fandom have let go of so many talented people. I hope those laid off can find work at a place that actually respects them

Exciting news! We’re thrilled to announce that tapir Yuna gave birth to a rare and endangered Malayan tapir calf Sunday night. The newborn, covered in distinctive white spots and stripes resembling a fuzzy walking watermelon, is only the second tapir born in our 120-year history.
