so tl;dr
I did basically the opposite of what the original post was about for a long time because I was worried I wouldn’t be taken seriously because of rural and class backgrounds. I spent time taking on markers that were slightly more from the academy to hide the folks and y’alls. And it sucks.
Notes:
