Makes sense. Small town (10,000). Community college nearby and a larger uni in the city about 45 minutes by rail.
Why writing by LaTex and what is the reason for it? I’ve written loads over the years but never in LaTex.
I can ride a bike with no hands! Great success! I spent the last 3 months trying and can navigate speed bumps, pot holes, and small curves now without hands. I have not, yet, broken anything but there’s still time ;-)
The narcissism is in others, yes, in this field.
I’m a burned out academic leaving the field. I’d like to learn something new as a means of recovery and healing from the trauma (edit: narcissm, lack of human connection, intense funding cuts resulting in competition, less focus on students in recent years and instead on metrics). So, what should I learn (edit: that might help recovery from the aforementioned) What do you recommend and where could I start? I’m not looking for career advice, just crowdsourcing new things to learn and experience.
That’s it. That’s my ask.
Edit: Added some context.

Thanks for the response.
I’ll have a look. I don’t journal, I’ve gone through spurts on trying and never keeping up. Likely just my inability to schedule it into my day.
