      It’s interesting how people think architectural degrees aren’t worth it because they know people who aren’t successful after finishing the education. I assure you, most architects that get into the top programs and graduate do well afterwards. Just because it’s not like getting a medical degree/license which has a much higher success rate doesn’t mean it’s not worthwhile.

We changed our purpose as a species, from self destructive for the survival of our kids, all the way to actively choosing hitting the self destruct button to see if we can make a few bucks that don’t have any meaning outside the human headspace.

I will take apart your cardboard box and pee on it, and you know how useless wet cardboard is. You better find some pallets, take those suckers apart and make a house!"
