I can help you as well. Just turn to Hedonism, which is pretty much the opposite of what Jelly B Peanutbutter tells you to do.
Quit your job, become an artist. Heck, become a twitch streamer, I don't care. Try to do what brings you joy. And remember to eat the rich.
But don't try to get into art school! That'll end bad.
So many of these awful grifters are actually just failed artists because not everyone can be what they want... It's why there is a slight failing to that age old leftist argument of studying art.
Tucker Carlson once wrote his college thesis on why a certain senator was the only true American and how the ideals of Bernie Sanders would be the social, pro-working class answer to Americans need for a better country. And then he was told his paper was boring, his writing credits barely made it anywhere and then he got insulted for wearing a bowtie.
I hate the little weasel fucker but he wasn't born this way he was made through choices and interactions that he failed to take in a way that lots of others would fail at. Society really makes it's own enemies.
Well, Carlson wasn't exactly the person I had in mind, and calling this person grifter might be an understatement. But maybe I'm biased.
