Also, how did this even come up? This was so long ago!

I still have an iPad from back then solely to use this app. These were the days!

Things are absurdly, stupidly stressful in the world right now. But I'm grateful to have found one little pocket I have some control over, and can make things better for kids stuck in the same situation I was. That's enough for me right now.

I'm setting the foundation in place to fix a problem that a 19 year old me had. It's honest to goodness one of the few times I can actually answer the question, "would your younger self be proud of you?" Yes. Yes he would.

It took me a decade before I gained enough experience to have employers look past my education history. Two decades later, I still have regrets for not finishing it, despite having a fairly fulfilling career.

I'm working with a company that's trying to solve higher education transfer credit dropoff-- an issue incredibly near to me as I personally experienced it transferring out of an associates degree to a four year. I made choices then to just go into my career without finishing the four year.

I hear this daily from exhausted friends and frankly it's more chilling than the supporters. Tacit acceptance on the basis of "he'll burn himself out eventually" "FAFO, they voted for it."

I don't care what the reason is, I don't accept this as the new normal.

@jimsaraco.bsky.social I'm so sorry. This friendship might be scarier than being on her bad side. 😂

Yup. Saw a notification from Bluesky, and I'm like, "damn did I catch another stray?"

YUP. :P

See i knew my Spidey senses were tingling for a reason

Hey pass me the shovel I need to dig myself that hole more efficiently.

But I might hurt my back.

Ma'am, I hit 30 years back and my body shut down. I wish I could say that was OG snarky Danny. Halfway through writing that it went from snark to genuine concern 😂

Try not to gasp in shock too hard, you need to mind your hip.
