FYI to my mutuals, I lost my mother in June, and I'm trying not to spend a lot of time doom scrolling. If my queue runs out, I'm fine, just struggling for a bit. Message me if you want to chat.

At the risk of sounding anti-intellectual, I think that college should be free and also not a requirement for employment outside of highly specialized career fields

[kineticpenguin]

At the risk of sounding like an effete intellectual, I do actually think you should be allowed to just take college courses indefinitely

[yourunderwaterskies]

technically you can, if you don't care about degrees.

Free Harvard courses. Free Courses from Stanford. Free Courses from MIT. Free courses from Yale. Free courses from Princeton.

Free courses on Coursera.

Free Courses on EDx Free Courses on Alison

For paid, there's The Great Courses+/Wonderium. 20$ a month for unlimited courses.

When searching, the phrases you're looking for are Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), or you can do a general search of say, "free online college courses." Oh, and so you don't get surprised like I did, have an avoid: Hillsdale College is a conservative Christian site and not a valid MOOC place. Sign up with them and you will get things like THIS IS WHY THE LEFT IS TURNING YOUR KIDS TRANS AND GAY in your inbox.

Every day I get a little closer to saying fuck it and becoming an apprentice in some at risk heritage craft or profession.

"let's have AI-"

I'm gonna go learn the art of hand engraving or thatched roofing. Maybe hand make clogs.

[trickstertime]

As a professional hand engraver, when it comes to old crafts like these, its way more accessible to get started with the basics than you'd expect. Back in the day good steel was expensive so trying something like hand engraving was expensive and difficult to justify. But now you can can just buy a good quality handpush graver online for less than a fancy coffee. Just think, for under a hundred quid you could get all the kit you need to get started with fucking up coins and stabbing yourself repeatedly!!!

Don't threaten to do it, go research it, and actually give it a go!!! Most of the books for old crafts are out of copyright. Even if you don't get a job at whatever you try, or hell, even of you don't become in any way good at it, just learning and trying something new is good for you, and it gives you a greater understanding and appreciation for things.

Fuck AI? Good. I agree. Now fucking do something about it. Return to doing human hand crafted things as an act of rebellion! Start knitting, start wood carving, start engraving, whatever the fuck. But most importantly, remember you don't need to be making money doing it to make it worth doing.

Hey! I thought you'd enjoy hearing that there's a monastery in the city I grew up, and they raise egg-laying chickens. Everyone knows they're the best eggs in town even though they cost a little bit more because the monks hug the chooks and they're so relaxed, running around a garden that's full of plants for them. Their eggs are so yellow and rich. I think your monks are tending aphids for their little yellow eggs, too. Anyway, my atheist ass still loved that place growing up. If religion was just hugging animals, I'd be all over that.

That's lovely and adorable. I also really wish there secular monasteries where you could just live in and raise chickens and not have to worry about having a real job or paying rent or whatever.

few more asks under the cut:

@a-random-fandom-friend I hope you don't mind but I'm just gonna refer you to a similar ask from a few days ago. but yeah fundamentally I just really like the look of franciscan-ish habits and it's fun to draw little animals in them.

I think every monastery should have a mascot animal they put a little custom habit on

love it. you should write that fanfic.
