“What was THAT?” - Charlie, about a “beep beep” noise from a trash truck #academiccats #skycats

My cat is basically my remaining coping skill. And he causes a lot of chaos so tbh not sure he counts as coping. #catsofBluesky #academiccats

Scout heard about the orcas using salmon as hats and was jealous that the trend started without him. He also doesn’t know what a salmon actually IS but he is committed to fashion. So he got creative with this artful hay fascinator that may inspire a wave of copycats within equine society.

I really love how kind and engaging people are here. So many neat conversations happening. Shoutout to @drcompton.bsky.social for getting me back in this space and shoutout to the blocking features. I missed having a place to share research AND advocacy AND fun things

Charlie and I would love to join the party!

This (finally) arrived today. PhDone for real for real for reals #academicsky #sociologysky

Do research and use my degree in my current job, though, so I’m happy my career plan shifted.

Here’s a bonus Charlie. He is indeed very himbo

I’m so glad to start interacting with more people over here!! Thanks for starting the introduction thread ☺️ 2/2

I’m Katie! I got my PhD in sociology and work alt-ac, but am interested in education, organizations, mental health, and inequality. More importantly, this is Charlie! He is very sweet and doesn’t really have thoughts, just occasional tumbleweeds. I’m so glad things are picking up here

And to make up for that, it’s not a cute puppy but I hope this is an acceptable substitute

#proofofcat some assembly possibly required but Charlie is here to welcome all the new friends

No thoughts, just snuggles

I really love him and his fluff brain.

Not sure if #felineFriday is a thing, but Charlie hopes everyone has a nice sunbeam nap in a cozy bed planned soon!

What an excellent friend. Mine is also orange flavored 🥰

Calla at sunrise

Yes, he will get a shout out for his important copawuthorship contributions 💕
