STEM is overrated. College shouldn't just be a means to get a job. There's value in education for education's sake. It isn't all about science, tech, and economics. We could do well to learn history, philosophy, literature, and rhetoric.

@MethDozer Economics in that it's about capitalistic ambition. An education used to be more well-rounded. Now that stops at high school for many and even that is subpar for a lot of people.
I'm not saying becoming a philosopher is a practical goal, but we should learn these things. It would help foster critical thinking. Especially in the "age of misinformation".
@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout that's not a far-fetched idea .-. It is very possible considering the dark history of the world governments and their need to conceal information in the past
@TheBlackPowerRanger How are they crackhead drivers? I get shit for driving legally by men, women, old, young, poor, rich, whatever. Driving is my job and I do it safely and legally and everyone on the road hates me for it because it doesn't yield to their shitty habits.
@Darksideinthenight2 @TheBlackPowerRanger if the public made your career, they can take away your platform for whatever reason they want. whether you think it’s a dumb reason, whether i think it’s a dumb reason. you are not entitled to the support of the public or the platform that you have because of the public. perioddd.
@TheBlackPowerRanger It had it's moments but it was the same as Star Wars, "she's a woman so she's automatically a super awesome badass chick without actually having to see her go through any adversity".
The age of actually well-crafted and interesting, strong female heroines is over. Ellen Ripley, Sarah Connor, Kate Beckinsale from Underworld.
@TheBlackPowerRanger follow the trends is trying to be cool but they create the trends now. All the plastic surgeries they get, they try really hard to have black features. Thick lips and thick body...they become something they were not originally. not a fan, now you see a lot of white girls trying to get black feature and they look weird. they try for that latina look as well
