    It’s wild how quickly morality falls to the wayside (and is subsequently paved over). Especially crazy to abandon one’s moral standing early on the path of solving problems that don’t exist to appease people who don’t care for a chance at the advancement of a career that you can’t take with you in a field that could be wiped out by a solar flare, all to end up making the world a worse place for subsequent generations (I’m not a bleeding-heart idealist, lol).

    I often think about a few people I know who have psych degrees. All were told, in different years, that if they wanted to make money as a psychologist, they needed to get in with tech companies. Some even got job offers.
