you don’t have to suffer in your personal life for your art but you do have to “suffer” for your art. and by suffer i mean work at it and fail and do the hard parts. sorry!

don’t love how so many people are saying with their whole chests that intellectual and artistic pursuits are for the upper middle class and above. and behaving like it’s good and leftist to think and say that

taylor swift’s unbelievable fame is all fun and games until you teach a required freshman composition class at a large state school and you get minimum 8 papers on how she’s a more important writer than bell hooks

@NairYasmin i’m referring to the discourse that seems to get renewed on here every few months specifically regarding academia and how the job market is beyond abysmal. but people’s general response to that is to imply it’s a moral failure to encourage students to go to grad school

Someone should write a piece about the tension between the literary it girls and the nerdier writers. I support them all, but a battle is brewing. I think it's fun that some women play up the cool girl gimmick though.
