That's not how the world works, and I don't need this in a thread where I'm dealing with the grief of a good career. Please shove off.

I would gladly not work and learn cello and physics independently if that were a real possibility, but it's not, and it won't be within my lifetime.

I had a job in a system that required jobs to survive that genuinely didn't bother me. I actually quite enjoyed it most of the time. Now it's permanently dead and I need something else, or I am homeless and starve to death.

> No, I fully reject any notion of life value coming from work, and those who hold your view are basically jailors to those who don't want our identity defined by work.

Fuck off.
