and not just education that makes sense.

this is a great way to put it. I grew up isolated from culture, from the world, and from the personality, curiosity and interests that kind of exposure can give - and now that I’m knee deep in adulting, I don’t know how I would go about learning more about culture and humanity, especially since I’m stuck working full time to keep the lights on (and pay my student loans).

If I felt that I could do a bachelor’s in gender studies or social sciences, I would. I wouldn’t expect it to make me rich, and I’m already a network engineer and systems geek, so that pays the bills anyway - but I’d do it because I think that’s something that would make me a more balanced person, and that would make my work better as a result.

I finally setup my computer and started playing Life is Strange. I didn’t expect to enjoy it like an art piece, but it has that feel to it.

say what you will, but piracy ensures that my copy of Brokeback Mountain will never be taken from me again.
