    What did you go for a PhD in if you don't mind me asking? What do you plan on doing with it?

      I got a PhD in political science. I initially wanted to be a professor, but the way every school and every university has handled the pandemic has me running like hell from academia. I'm definitely not gonna be a talking head or pundit, so I guess my only other option if I wanna stop doing office jobs is to start a youtube channel, lmao.

          Will do. Kinda actually thinking about being a Vtuber. That sounds fun, and I can maybe steal some people away from idiots like Hasan or Vaush with the magic of 2d booba.

        Is it possible for me to go for a PHD political science when my bachelors was in a stem field? I'm in a grad program now in Design but this isn't doing it for me and i don't want to have to spend 4 years on a bachelors.

          Yeah, totally. My bachelors was in Library Science, which has nothing to do with Politics at all, haha. Having said that, PoliSci is super nerdy, and 90% of what they're gonna teach you is nonsense wrong neolib/neocon shit.
