Heh, this echos my life somewhat, I wanted to be a writer in high school and then I realized I had absolutely nothing interesting to say as I had no life experiences or expertise. So I decided to acquire both and by the time I did that I had no interest in writing.

Maybe it's just part of being a teenager, but it's amplified dramatically I think by the fact that there are countless successful teenagers / early adults on the platform and these kids have parasocial relationships with them.
