What would you do if you had to go to school, and that was all fine and good until you remembered halfway through that everything it taught was simply one restricting form of looking at the immense and barely-understood-by-humans conglomeration of information that is the universe and in a matter of centuries that narrow perspective on the universe would be completely abandoned for a revised and equally narrow perspective and the only things that would maybe still mean anything are things like love and life and books that can't be quantified or explicitly understood but somehow are more than the sum of their parts and besides your existence and what you choose to do with it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things and you want to go and work on these things that will matter centuries from now, whether or not it will be eventually recognized by humanity, but currently those things are not materially rewarded by society
they are but sometimes the difficulty level on the game is set slightly harder than you may have expected
