Time to introduce myself to Bluesky. I'm chris. The more important one behind me is Shelby. I'm a PhD student in higher education policy, tw*tter refugee, & recovering alcoholic & fundraiser. I talk about politics, gay shit, education, addiction, Florida, and my life.

Welcome. Nice to meet you.

My wife and I are both software engineers and we have no kids.

If *we* are feeling it this bad, we can’t fathom how single people or couples with kids are handling it.

Like, we’re legitimately confused as to how people are surviving—let alone believing it when they’re told the economy is ok?

it's interesting to me how suspicious Republican Sen. Kennedy seems to be about Epstein and the administration's handling of it

I just cut my own hair for the first time. Brad Mondo has a YT tutorial on the Sabrina Carpenter hair cut. I surprised myself BECAUSE IT ABSOLUTELY WORKED. I didn't do it to save money, though, but because my area has zero Asian salons & I didn't want to drive to Seattle to my Asian salon.

the second I question a decision I know my mind will change toward something more practical and thought through and I know before I do it that I will regret not doing the original thing.
