90% of my frustration is just that the ONE thing i know i am definitively interested in is just straight up not a thing in the us. at least not the way it is in other countries. not as it’s own seperate subfield that can be dedicatedly studied. and tryin to find something close would be so much explaining and stress and im already at my limit. i should just get a job and wait

#archaeological science i dreamt i held you in my arms #idiom does not work but fuck if #the GIS minor is the closest i could get undergrad and still be Meaningful (actually on the diploma) but #i’m genuinely annoyed 99% of the science in archaeology is people specialized in other fields coming into archae #rather than the other way around. both should be possible!!!!!!!!!!#but nah we hate funding and we hate any research that can’t be monetized #i want to learn about remote sensing and ancient dna and isotope analysis and and and. and we get like a single week dedicated to them in #each class. and if i DID study it i would need to IMMEDIATELH PICK ONE KIND OF ARCHAE SCIENCE #yo apply to. bc it’s not its own subfield here. what i would r do a for a general ‘scientific applicantjons in archaeology’ course #the only times i miss engineering. anthropology markets itself as interdisciplinary but cmon girl recognize that science and math is equally #part of the human experience. or really the opposite i need stem to get over itself and recognize it’s all intertwined #sry it’s. jay whines hours #text✨
