The line of reasoning that I have is this: there are many artists, entrepreneurs, scientists, etc out there, but few of them have the financial security and connections via their wealthy family to chase those careers that someone like Taylor Swift had growing up. Financial security in this case being a family there for you that can fully support you if your life goes sideways.

The issue that I see when we put people like Taylor Swift on the success pedestal, and they don’t acknowledge the privilege and luck that it took to get there, it feels disingenuous.

Also not pictured: that the mountain is a spiritual site for the local tribes.

Nope

Nonsense!

I’ve got the best of both worlds! Love the taste of my black coffee, and it keeps the monkey that bangs a hammer against my temples at bay.
