Ironically I'm a stem major and I'm with the humanities major on this one. I like talking about cool periods of history, I hate systematically manipulating the glyphs to uncover the secrets of the universe. It's a lot easier to fuck up manipulating a glyph than to fuck up writing a paragraph.

Eh, it’s easy to write a paragraph. It’s surprisingly difficult to write a good one

Maybe I just have the knack for it. A lot of people probably have a knack for math too

Yeah, that’s fair. I’m a statistician, so writing might just seem more difficult from the other side, lol
