    I like reading literature and philosophy.

    second it comes out IRL everyone looks at me like I am an asshole. Nobody I meet every reacts positively to it. So I never talk about it other than online. anti-intellectualism sucks.

      As a kid I once said I wanted to be a philosopher. My mom got upset and told me it wasn’t a real job. I hope you eventually find friends that you can discuss philosophy with.
