Thank you Starr, This is a reminder to be grateful if your work is not onerous or overtly evil. So much is in the way we think of it.

What if your job contributes to active evil in the world, but also allows you to work at home and live where you want? This is my case and I suspect the case of many others at this point in history living in an evil technocratic empire. In that case it is rational to keep your job while also not committing to it, and in fact hating every second of it. And it’s not like I haven’t tried other things, I have 15 albums up on Bandcamp, I made in less than 3 years, so it isn’t just laziness or apathy, it’s that what I love to do isn’t popular with the masses and won’t pay the bills.
