Columbus, Ohio, reporter. Dog mom. Hockey fan. Taylor Swift stan.
Yes, of course @ericseeds.bsky.social and I took wedding photos with our dog, Riley.

Y’all I’m an idiot and totally missed the four best photos our photographer sent. So here you go!

And I’ll say it: @ericseeds.bsky.social and I are the cutest. 😍

And I don’t know how it gets better than this. You take my hand and drag me headfirst, fearless. 😍💖🫶

Two things are simultaneously true:

1) there are deep structural & financial issues with the American education system that cause it to fail students;

2) it can only do so much to change/counteract/compensate for what people learn at home & from the ambient media environment.

I don't mean to be the Mr. Rogers of Bluesky (I say "fuck" too much for that), but I did want to say for the new folks it's okay to be sad about the former Twitter, and everything that was lost there. I was sad about it too when I finally left. It's a real place with real memories. I mourned a bit.
