Hey, sorry I’m in a rush and couldn’t read your whole comment. I wanted to jump in anyway to clarify that you’re totally right to be confused about what my claims are. I wasn’t trying to make claims, really, I was channelling an emotion I had late at night into a post that I felt compelled to hit submit on. Hence: “loveletter to the demeaning occupation of desperately trying”
I really value the norms of discourse here, their carefulness, modestness, and earnestness. From the skim of your comment I’m guessing after a closer read I’d think it was a great example of that, which I appreciate.
I don’t expect I’ll manage to rewrite this post in the way which makes everything I believe clear (and I’m not sure that would be very valuable for others if I did)
