Sometimes I'm really jealous of those who spout bullshit for a living (lemmygrad.ml)

In working on an article right now [won't say on what because that's not the focus], but I'm having to read and cite a lot of stuff for it. And it'd be so nice to just not have to. Just be able to go in front of a camera and be like "Stalin personally ate 5 million people" and get paid to do so. Or be like those guys who can barely read the communist manifesto [a 48 page pamphlet] but proudly announce they've debunked communism.

I mean...I wont...I'm too principled and honestly I would still have no motivation for it because I hate doing bullshit. But it would be easier if I didn't hate it...

I used to lie and bullshit a lot as a teenager with low self esteem and honestly yeah, it's way easier in the short term. Sometimes you get publically embarrassed but I imagine a professional would just kill the part of their mind that cares about that.
