What do I burn for

I'm 20. I do not have student debt, and that sounds like a good thing, but it's because I have no idea what to study.

What should I do

No law saying you gotta go to college. Of all things, I'd say follow your curiosity and see where it takes you. Even if you never find anything you're passionate about, it's not such a bad thing to wander through interesting stuff forever.

@BlueVeins I worry I will just remain a loser that never became anything productive for society.

@Sinful Hey, don't say that. Have you ever had a job before? What do you do with most of your time?

@BlueVeins I work at the clothing store nearby. I bet they will replace me with a robot in a couple years.

@Sinful Hey, you are valid and you are useful. Society tends to have such disrespect for low-wage workers, but you guys are the backbone of the service industry and you guys make life a lot more pleasant for the rest of us. Having someone to help me find stuff is really helpful and comforting when I'm at the store. I hope you're making enough to get by. 🙏 Don't devalue yourself just because you're not fitting into the conventional capitalist model of success.

@BlueVeins Thank you so much for that. I needed to hear it.

@Sinful My DMs are open if you ever need to vent. I'm not always talkative but I can at least listen, dear.
