Not being human, I’m already at a loss to know what it would be like being one, let alone being one who’s trying out life as a different species of mammal. I’m intrigued. I like your drawing.

How do you know if what major I want to do is the right thing?

How do you know if what major I want to do is the right thing?

There’s so many different variables to balance when choosing a major. If I had to choose, I would struggle with choosing because there’s so many subjects I am interested in. I recommend talking with people you trust and making a pro / con list. Another exercise that could be helpful is to define for yourself what “right” means. Is “right” something you like to study? Something that will lead to a career path you are interested in? Or something else entirely?

How do you move on from a unrequited crush?

How do you move on from a unrequited crush?

Sorry about that, it’s an under-appreciated worst thing. 1) Feel your feelings. This is a kind of grief, so you might be sad or angry or a bunch of things. Give yourself space to feel that. 2) Take no for an answer. If you can be friends with them, great, but that might not feel OK to you. That’s fine. But the Hollywood storyline where you make them change their mind is not a good model here–IRL it’s at least borderline stalkery. 3) Live your life enthusiastically and you will meet many more lovely people, some of whom you’ll click with.

Should the Catholic Church reassess their evaluation of Origen’s work and revoke his status as a heretic?

I’m not a canon lawyer, so I really can’t give advice. I will say that it’s awkward when the documents (most of Origen’s many works) you’d want to retry the case were destroyed 1600 years ago. The Church seems pretty comfortable with his place as an important Christian thinker, according to my friend, the New Catholic Encyclopedia, which is an official publication. https://bit.ly/3zsb2ck

Assuming you have already read Shakespeare to your heart’s content here are a few recs! If you like the Hamlet of it all, there’s “The Dead Fathers Club” by Matt Haig. If you like reading plays, “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” and if you like laugh out loud funny, there’s “Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy” by Douglas Adams.
