A few follow-up thoughts:

First, please be careful. There is a naive, crappy version of this thread that goes something like, “Don’t worry about practicality! Just follow your bliss, and everything will work out!”

That’s a pleasant thought. It’s also a thought rooted in extreme privilege, and a dangerous one for anyone who doesn’t enjoy that privilege (and a fair bit of luck on top of it).

To be blunt: it’s a thought I’ve only ever heard from white people.
