Senior Seminar Paper · 1:48am Apr 13th, 2014
If you are wondering why my next chapter of never acclaimed un-pop hit The Pony Dialogues hasn't updated recently, it is because I got to graduate soon and that means papers on top of papers mixed with job interviews falling into the inevitable despair. The next chapter is almost finished, so I should have it out after the semester ends just when I graduate and get my BA in Philosophy.
Among the papers for school I have to write is my Senior Seminar paper which is about how to analyze the effects of digital technology on our ability to value and find relevance in our lives. If you want to watch my progress on it and give me advice, here is a LINK. I will also post the complete, edited version, later so you can all bask in what amounts to years of time wasted watching other people enjoy themselves using the internet.
What kind of job can you get with a philosophy degree?

Personally, I would love to become a philosophy or cultural studies professor, but that does speak well of the variety of career options philosophy allows.
Philosophy is not directly tied to any obvious careers but there are plenty of options. One can be a writer or editor due to the writing intensive work load philosophy courses have. One can go into consulting for businesses wanting to have an ethical check on their projects to prevent public backlashes or doing more harm than good because they lack the critical attention that philosophy has towards the world. One can work on a team developing video games or software for consumers by bringing a sensitivity to the most current tools philosophy has to offer for meaningful storytelling as well as in making the software accessible to people in their multiplicity as opposed to a standard human.
Sorry if this is repetitive and rambling, but as you probably tell, I'm tired.
